Ok then? Glad you liked it. I just found the layering and front part of his haircut awkward because it makes his bangs 'poofy' in a weird manner, these pics kind of showcase better what I'm talking about

The middle parting they did once in a while looked nicer on him

So if they had done that styling throughout the movie, it would've looked great too despite the haircut.

Other than that, I was being hyperbolic in my comment because I was feeling bored and dramatic. No offence was intended as I already said so, I liked the movie and the leads :D

"I exist because these still exist" I liked this perspective.

No offence to those who liked it (you do you bestie, I support you), but who chose to give that haircut to the ml? His face saved him from looking too awkward otherwise that haircut is a literal felony, absolute dehydrated apple, legit room temperature water, expired strawberry jam type of bad. Looks like Li Xun fresh out of jail decided to grow his hair out, but still went back once in a while for the jail's hairstylist to trim his hair for free. The only time they didn't look awful was when they were dripping wet after he got out of shower, because then you're too busy focusing on something else to pay attention to that local hair crime.

I need that duck and rabbit plushie in my life. I also need that candle so I can go back in time to stop myself from eating expired strawberry jam. And lastly, I need Chen Feiyu—

Ah I was going to discuss it in the pms to begin with. I was asking because if my dumbass went and accidentally left a spoiler in the messages without knowing what chapter you're on, I'll regret it for the rest of my life 💀

Omg that's great! Thanks for being so nice. I enjoy reading novels more when I have someone to discuss them with, and it's even better when the novel is going to get adapted so we can talk about the drama on top of it too (plus I remember that we both like Chen Feiyu, we once talked about him before). What chapters have you read yet? I just started the novel today after seeing your reply so I'm still in the beginning.

Loved her in fengshen. I didn't knew she was actually Russian-Mongolian, I initially thought she was of either Hui or Uyghur descent, her mandarin is so good and apparently it took her 8 months (of hardwork) to master it! I'm a bit jealous, I need her brain lmao.

I also liked that she focused on studying fox behaviours instead of portraying her fox spirit character as simply a seductress, you could actually buy that she's a fox spirit. She sticked close to how fox spirits are written in mythological works, charming yet cruel, otherworldly yet feel close to you, predators that appear like a prey.

[confused screaming]

Wang duo has absolutely no right to look this ethereal. This man is a banished immortal wandering among us mortals or something?

I'll have to agree with this. Zhou Xun almost convinced me that fox spirits are real and she's definitely one of them. Her performance as Xiao Wei is always going to rank 1st.

I also liked how in the beginning, when they described the creation of world, it started with a mural that looked like an eye. And when it cuts off to the actual movie, it also starts with an eye... but that of a soldier lying in the battlefield, an atmosphere that's filled with death. Afterwards, the conflict started with a greedy son killing his father and the movie ended with two sons being willing to sacrifice everything for their father and another one wrapping him into a bundle to take him home, just like the way that man once treated him despite knowing he was not a human child. "Full circle" indeed, life and death, light and darkness, good and evil, are intertwined and something that manages to exist in all humans. Now, whether they choose to be good or bad, all depends on themselves.

In case anyone missed it, there's two post-credit scenes that begin after 2:19:09 and 2:23:40 mark in the movie.

I need him in more historicals. He's good in modern works too but long hair and robes on him are just *chef's kiss*

I wish I had seen this in the theatre. The fox spirit here was actually so eerie yet enchanting. Like damn, I would've fallen for her too. I loved the way this movie portrayed deities and mythical creatures, the visuals and worldbuilding was also on-point (as expected by the fact that it's adapted from that masterpiece of a novel). I can't wait for part 2!

Baihes are so goddamn poetic like look at the title and the description, it's beautiful.

I know there's only a few hours left until it drops but holy shit I just can't wait. I need it. NOW.

This drama has absolutely no business being so goddamn addicting. Once you start it, you want to watch it all.

Btw is anyone reading the og novel here? I'm thinking of starting it because I've already read 'Her Mountain, Her Sea' (a baihe/gl) by the author and loved her writing style, although adaptions sometimes turn out to be quite different than the actual work (Till the end of the moon for example, even though I didn't dislike the drama either). So, in case someone else's is also currently reading it, we can discuss the novel and stuff :D

Feiyu in costume dramas is the only thing that can help me cope at this point. If hyx isn't dropping, I'm just going to become delulu and act like he's playing Moran from some alternative universe in every single historical of his 😌

Aww apparently he got married and has a daughter now! Glad to see him happy, he posts about his daughter all the time on insta and it's the cutest thing ever. He's such a proud dad and his daughter's got his smile.
