I did not need an almost whole episode of Mofang...😒
It wasn't so bad. At least better than an episode where the fairy sister was playing her brother's memory. Also, Mofang's backstory is needed cos he'll be back later.
I was so screwed by the schedule posted on MDL. I thought there were no new episodes yesterday and proceeded to rewatch the earlier episodes. Only found out when I came here late last night and of course couldn't resist and binge-watched the 2 episodes even though I should have slept earlier. But the fisherman made it worth it.
Is there any significancies on the name of fisherman? Yu Fu vs Yu Yi?
I think it's just a play of words. Yu sounds like fish and Yi is one. But when XZ said his family name is Yu...it just sounded like fish but did not mean fish in writing. SL was pulling his leg and joking if his name is Fu cos Yu Fu literally means fisherman in Chinese. Yu Yi is probably random.
How do you guys feel abt LGX as XZ, I am totally loving it but some are saying he looks a bit too "bulky" they…
For me, it's LGX. Cos he has a comical streak, and in this role, that's needed. He displays it subtlely through little nuances and expressions. And his chemistry with ZLY is perfect. I can't think of any other actor...maybe Cheng Yi for those micro expressions but I think in terms of stature, LGX is more suitable for this role. Personally, I can't watch actors who are too skinny, and there are a number of them that look too thin for comfort.
After not watching any previous previews, I went to watch previews for ep 25 & 26 cos we have NO new episodes tonight! XZ is hilarious in the preview of ep 26. Can't wait!!!
Don't kid yourself: if Mofang was ugly you would not be singing his praises. 🙄 Guy was fully aware what his…
You're right! Who plays a character and how he/she looks definitely affects the viewers' perception. Plus other than the narration, we don't see Mofang doing evil so it's not surprising that many are still smitten with him. Even in the novel, he's written as someone morally grey.
Zhao Li Ying's fight scenes are just off the charts! I remember I was drawn into watching PA by her battle scene with the wolves and now this phoenix fight. SO EPIC!!! Why no episodes tomorrow??? ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Oh and that BGM whenever SL makes her grand fiery entrance in a fight scene. I couldn't shake it off. It's stuck in my head and won't go away.
how is JJY in this? I know she tends to play the same type of character in most of her shows. but I’ve been…
Her hair could be better. It's a big distraction for me. Yes, she is still playing the same type but I don't find her acting exceptionally bad or good. But the storyline is interesting and intriguing enough to keep me focused.
Apparently I read on a fb page that CNetz are saying LGX is old, ugly and fat. Let's call it age discrimination.…
Not sure if you have watched Love and Destiny. Back then, they were criticizing how ugly Chang Chen was as the ML. Yes, he's not a pretty boy but he was able to bring out the depth in that role and his chemistry with NiNi was tops. It remains one of my top fave shows to date cos of the cast.
