some intros capture the emotion of the story so well

ZLH gave dark vibes in SOKP, but his appearance has changed, he has softer look now,

actually, I think he acts more in this drama than POJ there's more acting involved in this drama, I think it's a good role for him

7.5 to 8 is very normal on MDL

have you seen the reviews, its much worse

not every project is the same so shouldn't be same outcome

A genuinely well‑crafted drama with depth, not just surface‑level romance

If the voice actors are skilled enough to match his vocal qualities, the result is often more natural because the tone, rhythm, and mouth movements sync better with the on‑screen performance.

bts is a while ago

it's only gone down from 7.6 to 7.5, not much change

I don't think this drama is supposed to capture "real-life reality."

I think the acting is fine; if anything, the leads are the ones who saved this drama.

I can tell the format and the acting style are intentional. The drama tries to be red‑curtain — stylized, theatrical storytelling — but the comments say it ends up feeling like a micro‑drama or even vertical‑drama. It aims for grandeur but delivers short‑form intensity. Also, this red‑curtain style is uncommon in long‑form series, which is perhaps why it’s polarizing viewers. The director didn’t execute the red‑curtain style well.

"after receiving your feedback on the day of the premiere, we immediately worked overnight to remake the opening sequence. after several days of effort and coordination from all parties, the new opening has now been completed and replaced online."

I saw Douban comment that they only changed the opening from ep. 8 on. so new watchers they still experience the old opening when they start with ep. 1.

the actors are performing to how the directors want them pull off some sort of vibe he's looking for.

I saw some examples of 100% AI generated Chinese period dramas. It's pretty amazing, looks like real people until you start watching it, after a while, you realize their eyes are stiff and empty.

oh no. this director does not pay attention to details.

I don't get why everyone is complaining now. There were clips and trailers before it aired.

ah that makes sense, the lipsticks cause the little habit of licking the lips, but it's minor thing I never noticed until someone mentioned it, but the director's job to make sure that doesn't come across on the screen; we all have little habits.
