whats the genre ? is it fxing end up with romance ?
Its difficult for me to tell you since Idk how much romance is too much romance for you. Yeah one of the male leads has a thing for the female character in the other world but they don't only focus on that. The ending doesn't show a woman + man being together but it does imply they go back to the other world where the female lead is.
I'm not surprised this isn't very wellknown, pretty dark storyline. It is indeed inspired by/an adaptation of that one manga called お金がないっ by 香坂 透 from what I could find. The plotline is very similar.
Gotta have that white lily symbolism in there. Anyway it's an alright movie, bit overdramatic at times with the whole magic fighting. I found it by looking for the Chinese title but it was unsubbed.
''Zhou Yuan, a girl who will get sick the moment she falls in love, disguises as a guy and entered Qing Yun Academy in order to protect her brother.'' I see.. two tropes in one go. Could be fun though I mean its comedy after all.
I did it. I finally watched the lakorn everyone keeps recommending. Overall I mean some of the characters frustrated me a ton but I will admit the story keeps you interested in what happens next. It was a lot of emotional pain for all the characters generally and a tiny bit of cute moments.
first of all, i have to admit that im an apologist for this show so here's some points i wanna defend the show…
Oh I compare Japanese and Hongkong versions only cause I just love the Ossans Love franchise in general and like to discuss about it. Both have their own charms and I am really glad to hear that this adaptation feels like a true Hongkong adaptation to you. Its been a real entertaining show to watch and definitely feels like its own thing despite of how similar it is because of how it localizes so many aspects.
And yeah now that you mention the main leads not being professional actors like the jdrama ones are it definitely makes it impressive what they accomplished. I looked into it and they only entered the acting industry around 2019. Meanwhile the main leads of the Japanese Ossans Love had at least ~10-15 years of acting experience before starring in Ossans Love. So that's really good work from them considering the difference in acting experience.
I'm not from Hongkong myself but I definitely feel the hype for this first Hongkong BL with its own cultural identity and I hope more projects will follow. I was actually really happy when I first heard about it as well because yes doing a first BL series is a huge step towards more regular BL production (like Korea).

There's definitely a unique bond between Gu Kai and the king.
