My only extremely minor gripe about it is like dude. stop trying to sell me on pork intestines. it's a revolting…
ML doesn't like them because he is a noble. Offals were consumed by the commoners. Those scenes were intentionally added to show the differences in their upbringings.

It's a Chinese drama first and foremost filmed for the Chinese public, regardless of the fact that it's aired internationally (but kudos that international viewers are able to enjoy these dramas). Offals are part of our culture. So that one-in-four or one-in-five comment you've made is more like three-in-four.

'It's a revolting food to most people'....slightly offended at this.
Offals are a big part of many cuisines and play a deep role in history especially during times of famines and food shortages.
I, personally, love braised or deep fried pig intestines with pickled mustard greens. Same with pork liver - cooked with congee. Or Korean bbqed beef intestines (gopchang).
I would like to add, this is a Chinese drama filmed filmed for a Chinese audience so the director wouldn't film this in mind that these close-ups would disgust international viewers.
Ouch, I can't help but cry-laugh each time ChangYu butchers Cao Zhi's famous 'The Poem of Seven Steps'. Fans of Romance of the Three Kingdoms would understand.
It's hilarious how many different celebrities he is said to look like here in the comment section. I would like to interject and say he also kind of look like Allen Ren? With a dash of Xiao Zhan and Cheng Lei mixed in. And strangely enough, even at 30, he totally pulled off playing a high schooler in 'Twirl of the Uniform Skirt' (Too Young to Love).
*shivers in anticipation* When it comes to wuxia dramas, I have a soft spot for the 'demonic cult' thanks to Jin Yong's 'The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber'.
Why are they so natural and so cute together? I can't get enough of their scenes together in the latest episodes. Nothing about their chemistry feels forced or acted out.
Dang it Wang Duo, you've done it again - stealing the show with your presence. It's been 7 years since your incredible and unforgettable perfomance in 'Bloody Romance' where you brought the morally grey character of 'Gong Zhi' to life, the 'anti-hero/villain' that we all fell for - haven't felt so much for a 2ML since then.
I thought for sure you would have been catapulted to ML immediately after wowing everyone with your potrayal of Gong Zhi, but instead you fell off the cdrama radar for 5 long years.
So good to see you back in cdrama world again. Your Bing Zhu is the most relatable and interesting character in 'The Unclouded Soul'.
Wow! What a riveting first episode! Though Hou Ming Hao looks like he could have stepped off the set of either Fangs of Fortune or Love in the Clouds here (or even his guest appearance in Love Pavilion).
Was pleasantly surprised by Zhao Liying's guest appearance, wasn't expected to see her there.
