I get that!! Usually, I don't like emotionless characters unless the actor can portray it well. I think no matter how "emotionless" or "cold" the character is meant to be, there has to be some subtle details (unless the character is meant to be a robot/puppet). Really enjoying Wangquan Fugui so far

Ikr!! I was so shocked when he took the mask and wore it in front of his dad...like I held my breath because I thought his dad was gonna lash out at him 😭 I love that Fugui's character isn't just "cold", he actually shows like a stubborn and playful side sometimes hahaha

Hmm I don't think so. In the donghua FL did not die. I also don't think such a big show will kill off the FL in the middle.

HAHA I think I might be the only one enjoying the little spiders. I find 12580 so adorable 🤣

Li Yitong will be out soon! The spider is really exactly like the donghua haha

Li Yitong is so cuteee! I've actually not seen her play such an adorable role before and I've watched like 4-5 of her dramas. Back then I knew her from her tragic roles so it's so refreshing to see this bubbly side of her!

Cheng Yi I don't have to say much, I loveee his microexpressions. From his microexpressions, you can tell when Fugui is hurting/sad, amused, surprised (when Qingtong first transformed) and more! Compared to Xiao Qiushui (another CY character) who is so lively, Fugui is more gentle and reserved.

Err ML def has more screen time because this show is more about Wangquan family (ML's family), like the whole plotline revolves around Wangquan. Oh but I would say FL does have quite decent screentime so far (up till ep 5)!

Omg you described it so well! I really love their dynamic tooo

Yess! He really looks like both his parents. Especially the gentle vibe of Huaizhu (Liu Shishi)

Many would say the dramas are standalones but I would recommend to watch his parents story first! Like you will connect more with this world and the characters more!

Watched the first 3 eps! Can I just say my type is huge green flags!! I'm not a fan of toxic love tropes, so I'm really enjoying and loving the gentle slowburn-ish love between Fugui and Qingtong now ❤️

Also, I think having watched Love in Pavilion allowed me to understand the show more, like why Hongye is so cold to Fugui. I feel so bad for this father-son pair 🥺

The sudden loud music doesn't really fit the scenes imo but maybe because I haven't gotten use to it or is it because they are trying to give off donghua vibes?

Right?! After watching MLC, I was waiting eagerly for this one but it did not air :( and then I heard that there's some issues (not sure what it is tho). Really really hope this drama can air. I'll watch it no matter how late it airs 🥺

Excited for tomorrow!! I have just finished a project today and tomorrow's episodes will be my reward 🥳 before I start on my next :')

Sooo many dramas airing this period and so little time. Am saving Whispers of Fate for the holidays. Sword and Beloved I can't resist because I love Cheng Yi too much >< Love and Pavilion was pretty good to me (I know it's controversial), so if Sword and Beloved can reach a better standard, I'll be happy!

I wonder if the cast are gonna be doing promotions >< I'll like to see Cheng Yi and Li Yitong (love them since their little interactions in Keep Running) along with other the other casts. I really hope it's possible, even if it's something minor!

Sighh I just hope that the peace can be protected here. On Weibo's side, I know it's gonna be crazy. Hopefully over here, people are more respectful 🥺

So happy! 😍🥳

Yayyy ><

Is 25th really confirmed? I don't dare to go weibo because of the crazy 营销号 accounts. I'm so happyyy :> but also worried. I just wanna watch this drama happily in peace 🥺 Just nice it's on the weekends 🥳

Cheng Yi fans are eating so well this year! (Not related to this drama but Vendetta of An is rumoured to come out end of year too omg!!)

I have not watched all of the donghua but my understanding is that all of the endings are gonna be sad. Because the donghua has a modern era element, like the characters die in the past (historical setting) and they reincarnate in modern world. Clearly the drama doesn't have a modern era element...

I could be wrong tho!

Err others have said that all three Foxspirit Matchmaker series are standalones, but personally, I would say watch Love in Pavilion before Sword and Beloved! You'll know more of the world building and stuff if you watch Love in Pavilion first. I'm not sure how reliable the drama is when it comes to explaining stuff since it's an adaptation, so better to watch Love in Pavilion at least?

Love in Pavilion takes place 1 generation before Red Moon Pact and Sword and Beloved.

Wangquan Fugui (Sword and Beloved) is the son of the ML and FL from Love in Pavilion. The ML from Red Moon Pact is Fugui's cousin.
