Lmao I was about to comment that about the title

Old interview where she explains her name and career in Japan (Alan is a combination of dad and mom's clan name)

Bruh he's always a doctor in almost every single drama. Didn't expect him to be a real doctor.

It's probably better to comment the link on the actual page instead of having them inside lists. That way, everyone can help check and update.

Jeez why are these companies suddenly mass-releasing adaptations starting in 2018 like they're generic assembly line products at a factory?

Btw, The Journey (2017) has an arc on Investiture of Gods too.

Hi I just noticed "Fighter of the Destiny" and "A Slender Gentleman and a Good Lady" are included in here. Those shows are actually set in a fictional world. Their Great Zhou does not correspond to Zhou dynasty, just a shared name. I know this can be confusing for foreigners. My tip is to distinguish by clothing. Zhou dynasty clothing are visually similar to Qin and Han dynasty clothing.

I think this movie will never air, because LYF was blacklisted in 2022...

Missing: Soda Voyu, Sean Huang, Lily Tien, Ke Huan Ru

6-7 because everything was so slow and predictable from start to finish.

First half was really detailed and logical, but second half had so many logical plotholes that my bf kept pointing them out while watching, and it just made the movie funny instead of scary. Overall, the gullibility and incompetence of the side characters made me unable to take it seriously. Like, you must be dumb on a different level if you let your guard down a lot due to underestimating a spirit just because she's physically weak👴

No, and no. Shi was gay in the book. Yanda was only created for the drama to make him not gay.

C-dramas as in Chinese-language dramas in general? Because Fan Yichen isn't ethnically Chinese (east asian). He's an indigenous Amis (austronesian). That explains why he looks different.

Hi!
1. "Lost Track of Time" takes place in Da Han (大瀚) (not Han dynasty, different word).
2. In "Legend of Zhuohua", Northern Liang is fictional. The real one was run by the Juqu clan, not Yemu. Another clue: people in Southern Chen wore Tang-style clothes, which didn’t exist back in the Sixteen Kingdoms. The "north" and "south" in these names are part of a Sinocentric trope, signaling nomads versus Han Chinese.

Hi! Looked through all 5 pages (1-454). Everything is in a fictional world except:
114, 128, 154, 155, 223, 224: Tang dynasty.
115: Northern Song.
121: Modern + Old Babylonian Empire.
181: Republican era.
191, 192, 259: Mythology is anachronistic, so treat it as fictional.
209: Song.
232: Mythology characters traveling to modern day.
270: Qing dynasty setting, but Ming dynasty clothes (and no shaved heads), so it's anachronistic.

Dramas adapted from Gu Long and Jin Yong's novels are intentionally ambiguous. The timeline clues are very self-contradictory, so I suggest not assigning a time period and just call it fictional.

How to check:
1. 架空 (fictional world), 玄幻 (eastern fantasy), 仙侠 (xianxia) as the genre are automatically fictional, no need to dive further. 武侠 (wuxia) is fictional by default, unless explicitly stated.
2. Baidu Baike usually has the country/dynasty name written in episode summaries.
3. Prince/King's surname doesn't match with the ruling family of the real historic dynasty.
4. Compare the clothing with other dramas from the same time period.

I'm so confused why they decided to translate Dalisi as "Dali Temple"??? Dalisi actually means Court of Judicature and Revision. It's not a religious place.
