that is not fair to say as if this was the case of all dramas...
of course not all, but the trend does feel like fast fashion where constant releases, instant visual appeal, big names are prioritized over craftsmanship š¤·āāļø
between Dashing Youth and The blood of Youth I donāt think itās twelve years, I donāt remember if itās…
dashing youth ends with the 12 year deal and blood of the youth starts when the 12 year deal has passed, so thatās why I assumed there is a 12 year difference between the stories⦠but the inconsistencies about timing and the actors who play the characters is not a criticism in my case (itās understandable), itās just funny if you watch it in the order.
after watching dashing youth, i almost spit out my food from the surprise of seeing baili dongjun and sikong changfeng. ARE they supposed to be looking that old after 12 years? š lol made me laugh so much. i know blood of youth came first and hence the actors, but damn that's funny
The alternative ending is based on novel, and it's more like parallel universe since Wei Yan had seen the future,…
Well, if itās a parallel universe, it is still the same problem- their love wasnāt earned and it was predetermined.
My point still stands, the story is about fated/destined love which was revealed only at the end. Their love story wasnāt circumstance/character based at all with that implication.
I just donāt like stories where the love is predetermined.
ML basically has 2 expressions here - disgusted condescending one and disgusting rapey one. One is for regular…
I think looking for an 'ideal man' in a story like this misses the point.
Xie Wei is a 'red flag,' but heās the only one who sees her for who she actually is and stays. He doesn't want a saint; he wants her. Their compatibility isn't about being good for each other, it's about being the only two people who truly understand each otherās darkness. Now for Zhang zhe she would have to put on a performance and be scared that he will see her true self, I donāt see them as compatible at all.
Sometimes you watch a story for the complex characters and not for a dating guide lol
when does it get good? Im on ep 19 now and it only start being good after the explosion. i dont think the comedy…
i did see that, but i wasnāt 100% sure if i understood that correctly, because they didnāt explicitly say that. he just said equivalent exchange, but is bringing him back to life the equivalent exchange? with what? idk maybe the translation i was watching wasnāt good š
On the one had I was thinking that I kind of like that he doesn't try to find any profound meaning into things where there is none, but then I realised he sounds like me who is burnt out and tired.
i mean the creators of the drama not the actors.
