Yes that's a pity for Wen Xiao because every other cast member (especially the female cast members) was better served regarding makeup. Too bad the FL, the one with the more screen time was "Pink faced" like this. When I noticed it, it disturbed my experience as a viewer. But yes, in costume dramas young FL wear pale makeup, They just should have paid attention to her neck too.

It is a very good story about a weak enslaved country struggling in seeking freedom from 2 of his super powerful neighbouring countries.
It is one of the best political, spy, wuxia drama I have ever seen and Allen Ren is superb in this drama alongside Landy Li and Jeremy Tsui ( amazing antagonist wow, he made me like him and pity him, such great actor )
It is marvelous. Full of hidden clues, subtl encoded messages exchanged between the characters. Highly rewatchable.
I want to rewatch it.
My spoiler free review if you would like more details.

If not, Just jump into the drama.
But warning : it is violent on the first episode.

Ok I understand, thank you. I also like the leads. I a going to watch it nevertheless :)

I would go run with him too :)

Episode 28 - I like the way it turns and the coming ending seems to make sense. Great.

22 - Agreed.
23 - I need to watch LGIEF . So much praises.
24 - ( copy past my message to Megumi-H)
FoF was very beautiful, with dark aesthetics. I like every thing, exept for the makeup. It looked weird.
Why is WenXiao's face pink and her neck orange o_O

Other than that, I really enjoyed this drama.
update : Neo is ok though, too bad they did this to her.

24 - "Love of Nirvana" agreed, this was also my answer. And also like "Story of a pearl girl." the sea look very real too.

23 - "Wonderland" ? Yes I remember, there was a hype before it aired. It was maybe because like you said , the topic felt ground breaking. But I did not understand why this drama did not keep the momentum. Suzy was coming back. And everybody wanted to see her. At the time I wanted to watch it then I totally forgot it.

23 - "The Good Place" was amazing. I got hooked and stuck to it till the end. It made me think a lot about where the characters were really evolving. It is indeed one of a kind. I would ike a remake of this show.
24 got me stuck as well. I don't know the others.

22 . WoW, With such praise, "the Double " will have a serious competition to get an award. ^^

I will purposefully avoid to speak about TTEOTM or "The Double", because they are perfect dramas.
22. A drama that deserves the hype
"When the phone rings". I liked "lovely runner" even if it wasn't perfect regarding time travel logic. I still loved it.
"Your eyes tell" J-movie, OST by BTS. A great movie.

23. An innovative drama you watched in 2024
"Fortune Writer" mini drama with a anti heroine Female Lead and a very different type of plot. It answers the question : how an anti heroine can do bad things and still play the part of a protagonist?
It is not like "Night in love with you" in which the Female Lead is an antagonist and know how the story dynamic works, so she tries to make things go well.
No. This anti heroine is purpose fully doing very bad things to jeopardize the story. I was amazed.
This kind of new dinamic can only be found in mini dramas. Because censorship is killing creativity on the long length dramas. This is also why I like mini dramas so much. The crews get more freedom.

24. Favorite costumes of 2024
"Love of Nirvana" is almost perfect drama in my eyes.

Be strong :)

Cute and sweet mini drama. I liked it.

I would say Chen Zhuo. (As for episode 12) But On this episode I suspect Chen Yue impersonated Chen Zhuo on the balcony scene.

I am on episode 12 and I suspect that Yue already impersonated Zhuo. For the first time. I might be wrong.

They are twin brothers. So not the same person.

I get this vibe but it lacks a third female lead. Once she enters the scene, yes it will be a harem.

This is a superb mini drama. Too bad I can find anywhere to re-watch it.

Ok I understood your point of view.
