I recommend remembering that in the novel, the male lead is not entirely a positive character, so this hairstyle…
Agreed, best to leave all that to those sites. This will be a loose adaptation of the novel from what I can guess. And you’re right about Yin Gezhi - definitely no saint in the original story.
Oh god, um imagine his hair to be at least similar to SYS or so but his hair in this drama makes him look like…
Yeah, not my favorite, but I think it will be one of his probably many looks/costumes. As a hostage prince, it’s probably a persona he’s adopting. If I’m wrong, then eww, need to go back to drawing board 😂
Few days ago there was rumors that drama official booting shifted from May 17 to May 20. ( reason not explicitly…
I know rumors and speculation are part of anything that is highly anticipated. And who knows, you're probably right, but we'll probably never know for certain what goes on behind the scenes in a production. The only thing that irks me is when people (not you) take rumors and use it to spread malicious things about people for who knows what reasons. I'm just glad filming has started finally. Looking forward to seeing how this progresses.
As for the female lead, I'll hold judgment until we know who it will be.
Looks like they may be booting up 5/17 there’s a whole thing of fans for DW and floats and cakes and stuff.
Yeah, looks like from the very few leaked pics and clips that the booting has concluded and filming has started. Will have to see if any official announcements/posters/etc will be released.
The fans organized their own shindig, looked pretty fun lol.
DW's fanclub confirms drama's filming start is indeed 5/17, but apparently it will not be open to the public, so not sure what we'll get to see if anything. My vote: announce the rest of the cast lol
