I'm probably in the minority who doesn't mind him that much. Could be cos I've watched him in Joy of Life and found his character quite interesting then. The only thing I dislike in this drama is his curly ponytail.

I love Love and Destiny and I love the ML there despite all the protest about his looks back then. I was talking to someone the other day and we were laughing about why do generals in Cdramas look so fair? Did they have sunblock back then? LOL.

Ok, so I'm inept in reading...not comprehension. You happier now? LOL.

What's wrong with defending an actress I like? Especially when this is her drama we're discussing? Just move on. At least I didn't tell you off for shoving another actress's name here.

I think current casting is good. Snow Kong is pretty but she doesn't have that weightiness about her that's needed for Su E Huang.

Hurt me? Hahaha. Come on...this is just an exchange of comments. I don't get personal unless people insult me directly. I'm just glad Song Zu Er is playing this role. It could be other actresses for sure, and I sense you're frustrated, but the reality is that it is Song Zu Er, and she did a great job, as proven by the metrics.

Ah. I see the bias. I like Yang Zi too but Song Zu Er nails this role with her beauty and acting just right. There is something kiddy and fragile about Song Zu Er that balances well with the ML here. Anyway, the popularity of this show already proves that the casting is right. I see more praises for the FL than I see negative comments like yours.

I also think the plot is just right...not so politically heavy and not light either. The director is doing a great job.

Really? I find Song Zu Er is one of the better actresses in her age group. Her other drama, The Demon Hunter's Romance, just ended and she looks /acts nothing like her role there. I don't know what you can't see but I see a lot of micro expressions. It's been so long since I'm so enthralled by someone beautiful and entertained by her excellent portrayal of the role.

I actually like that they make her not super shrewd so she's more likable. I can't with FL who are too smart, they outwit ML all the time and it's not so fun to watch. Their chemistry is well-balanced because they're not always spot-on smart.

It's been such a long time since I've refreshed my social media checking for updates on a drama hastag. I thought I was behind schedule but it seems I've caught up to the latest episode and the waiting is agonizing.

He can act but my beef is that they keep casting him in similar types of roles.

Oh...I love Demon Hunter's Romance. I thought the story was very beautiful. But her role here is very interesting. Strong and smart but makes misjudgements here and there which I find realistic. She emotes very well. I love her voice too.

Apart from those mentioned, I highly recommend Legally Romance.

She is not just looking gorgeous here, I love the way she brings freshness to her roles. She doesn't look/act like anything in her last show, The Demon Hunter's Romance.

Oooh exciting!!! I remember Joy of Life 2 was aired at or around the same time on Disney Plus.

Watched mainly cos I am a fan of Japanese Shinkansen plus I found out Tsuyoshi is the ML. To me, the plot is rather lame especially about the culprit and the backstory. The show is also not as gripping as others I've watched in the same genre but it's still entertaining enough. What I like is the efficiency of the JR HQ in the story.

And she can act!

So sad he only appeared a short while. I had to take a 2nd and then a 3rd look to confirm it's him cos he looks extra handsome as Baimu Yaojun.

Song Zu Er is great as Ban Xia. Those scenes where she held on to Xuan Ye or when she longed for him really made my heart ache for her. The emotional depth she brought to the character is truly remarkable.

It's real. Just no depth. Haha.
