Wow, thank you so much for this! Sometimes things go over my head because of the translation and subtle meanings…
Thank you for commenting back! That makes a lot of sense. Especially during the first part when Wei was trying to seduce CC. I just wasn't sure if CC understood what was going on after and it seems like CC knows Wei is struggling because he went to JXS about it.
I guess I was just trying to figure what all CC knew at that point. Does he really believe that Wei just saw him one day and wanted him and that's what he thought all the scheming was/is? It doesn't seem like he knows about the ex situation yet.
I haven't gotten to the part in the novel yet and I don't want a spoiler but what does everyone who doesn't know what is going to happen think about the kiss in the next epsiode that was in the preview between CC and Wei? Is it Wei really kissing him becuase he wanted to or is it another feeling like he has to or something bad will happen situation?
Their first kiss would have been so great at that part right before they were interupted by the phone call. But I kind of understand why they didn't.
Favorite scene from Episode 10 WSWxYue Yue showdown was so good. First of all, it did not overstay it's welcome.…
Wow, thank you so much for this! Sometimes things go over my head because of the translation and subtle meanings that are deep. Please write more of this about whats going on because it was amazing! π π
Like, I still don't understand CC's mindset about Wei with the gay thing. CC knows Wei is straight right? And he knows that Wei has been scheming, but does CC really believe that when Wei said he liked him it was true? I can't tell some times because everyone is playing everyone. π
It's the little movements and small details that really make this drama remarkable. One of my favorite parts in episode 10 is when CC was telling JXS he better help WeiWei get over his issue. Right before CC left JXS, he says, "I trust you" while tapping him on the shoulder with his lighter. Idk its just those things that are so awesome to me. That lighter has been an extension of his charater throughout the show and I freaking love it! Very few actors I see use the whole space in a scene with those small details and it's being done very well in this series. Bravo!
It would have been so much more believable if WSW was knocked out from the fighting and then woke up with the snake wrapped around him. It was slightly ridiculous that it seemed he was scared of the snake when he had been working with snakes for a very long time at that point. And I know bigger snakes can get you, but that snake scene seemed like it could have been better with minor tweaking. I still think it was a plausible scene, so I'm suspending my belief about it.
Does anyone know how or if C does workshops with BL actors? I saw the interview with the author talking about filming in reverse order and I tried to look up why some productions do that. I had a thought that it might be tricky if the later parts are suppose to have more chemistry in them, why would they film those scenes first. It seems like the longer the show goes on filming they'd have better chemistry because they might be more comfortable around each other. So, if they filmed all the parts with them being into each other right off the bat, their chemistry might not be as strong, while we have seen their chemistry in the first half become more intense. It's interesting.
I really hope the chemistry keeps building through to the end, but I'm not sure all that works. It's making me really interested in the filming process now.

That would be complete gut punch to the fans and everyone who worked on this.
Why is this not on MDL? The last couple of Chinese BLs I looked for were not on here.

How'd y'all feel like it was handled?
