800+ people who asked the same question.🤣At least the Chinese title, “800 metre radius “ makes sense.
Everything happens within 800 meter radius but you wouldn’t know that if it’s just 800. The correct title is 800 meter radius because radius describes an area with boundaries. The title also can’t just be 800 meters because without radius, it describes a distance only. The title 800 meter radius carries an intensity, precision, and stakes. It’s Chen Hui’s psychological cage.
Or maybe because people who is watching or just done watching loves it and rated it high so it remains 9.1? Who…
it’s a pattern I watch for on all dramas. I think MDL manipulate data so it follows a pattern. Ever since a particular drama when I new to this site started to track it daily I noticed this about MDL. I believe this drama would have gotten a very high rating but. MDL wanted to make it 9.2 but now reconfiguring data to match 9.1. For this drama no problem rating is great but they do it to other dramas going the other direction like giving it a 7.5 from start to finish then recalibrate to match patterns. I think in another week it should match which is taking unusual long time. That’s what strange
the currently watching will go below 9.2 to fit the patterns except this one does it ever so slowly which is highly unusual but once it settles in who would ever know.
Is a masterpiece. Taking in to consideration small budget and inexperience actor at that time 2017. Just great…
Inexperience??? It’s the ML’s 5th drama and second ML’s 3rd drama. Unknown at the time but experienced. They already been acting for 2 to 3 years just didn’t break through until this drama. No one knows the budget. All rumors.
GUYS FEW HATERS BACK TO THE DRAMA CALLING IT TOO DAUNTING. Calling Pursuit of Jade “bullshit” while binge-watching…
This is typical and has been extremely mild here for this drama. I’ve seen way worse. With this kind of mega success a few negative comments will get drown out. Negative comments usually come when comments section slows down otherwise gets buried
She is 19 & i think he is @ least 10 years older than her.
Actually that big age gap makes more sense the way the leads portrayed their characters. The younger you are the less fear you have the more invincible you feel.
That currently watching has to match completed or below it to make sense to me when the rating is over 9. It’s slowly getting there. MDL will make sure it does.
Yes Douban 6.9 as checked today on https://movie.douban.com/subject/36415590/ is a very honorable score for this…
I don’t trust Douban either. Both this drama and Feud had pages of perfect 5 stars on Douban everyday during its airing and even afterwards for at least a week or more. After that I don’t look. I think this drama would still have gotten a decent Douban like 6.5 but I feel 6.9 was a bit inflated. I think in general a 7.9 on MDL is actually a good score because many very good dramas are 7.8 to 8.1. That’s why I take all ratings with a grain of salt. For producers and brands It’s the popularity that matters for commercial value. I would think that they have than way of knowing what is real.
Need to mention Deng Kai’s performance is truly on another level he brings such natural intensity, depth, and…
He performed at a main role level even if they label it as support. It’s really about the impact an actor makes, not the screen time and he gave a memorable performance
The second couple went beyond just sex. It’s more the stuff of human psyche while the main couple is more fairytale. The relationships that deal more with humanity tend to be more polarizing and on its own probably won’t get high rating but it works here it’s not the main relationship and gave the drama tension especially well executed. The fairy tale relationship is the reason for high rating but I think the villains elevated the show. The producers and directors and writers know what audience wants. They packed it all in and executed well as far as keeping viewers entertained. Without the kinds of villains the show would be very different with bigger conflict with the leads and not soften up ML but then with a stronger ML means will be less contrast of how strong FL and different village atmosphere at the beginning. They did the same thing in another drama FL does all the fight scenes and ML cannot fight, also soft, to make FL feel the most powerful. . have to go with the flow and enjoy it otherwise look for a different story.
I dont know what defines second couples chemistry?? Sex?? , main couple has out of the world chemistry because…
Second couple had more depth and complexity due to extremes instead of just warm fuzzies. The main couple conflicts were predictable not that deep and resolved easily. Can’t really compare them either. They are different kinds of relationships and dynamics evoke different emotions
scenes and ML cannot fight, also soft, to make FL feel the most powerful. . have to go with the flow and enjoy it otherwise look for a different story.
