Somebody plz tell me......... both the ML and FL is going to die in this drama?
People are interpreting it differently (which is completely valid given how the last scene is presented) so it's hard to say how you would see it. But I will say, mostly yes. But them both dying is a far better ending than one of them living without the other so I take that as a win. lol The way it was done was beautiful to me.
She just sounds so bitter that TTEOTM has done so well despite the initial mixed reviews. When she trashed it…
As far as I'm aware, he was not a main investor. His agency is tiny and at that time wasn't even doing very well financially. I don't know how he would have been a "main investor" in such an expensive drama at that stage. Otters Studio, which he worked with when he did Immortality (The studio was created for Immortality I believe) had the rights to the IP and LYX was in mind to play this part from very early on. It was an IP that already had some buzz around it to begin with and it's possible they even purchased this IP with LYX in mind. It garnered investors from the beginning as a result. (I'm sure if my information is incorrect someone will come in and correct me. )
She is rehashing the kinds of things some people were throwing around on Douban when the drama was airing. No proof and she's unlikely to provide any. If there is truth to it, I've not seen anything about it.
As others have said, not liking the final product of the drama is fair enough (she certainly wouldn't be the only one after all) and she has the right to express that. But making statements like this and calling it a "fraud drama" also disregards the hard work of everyone involved. It does seem kind of unnecessarily malicious and bitter.
No dubbing in this drama. But if there was any dubbing in some scenes (like some outdoor scenes where sound quality was poor or whatever) Bai Lu and Luo Yunxi dubbed themselves.
She just sounds so bitter that TTEOTM has done so well despite the initial mixed reviews. When she trashed it…
Right! Interesting that she believes he even had the means to be the main investor in a S+ drama back then. She definitely just took the stuff anti's were saying on weibo and douban etc and regurgitated them as facts. A lot of her audience doesn't know better so they take her word for it. Not the first time she's done things like that. Probably won't be the last.
The director was simply allowing them to improvise in some cases. Many directors will collaborate with their actors in this way.
She just sounds so bitter that TTEOTM has done so well despite the initial mixed reviews. When she trashed it…
No. Not at all. lol. She's just a Chinese content creator/youtuber. She does reviews and often gives context to a lot cultural and historical things in dramas. But she can be very biased. In that she'll trash one drama or actor for certain things, but then completely ignore it in another drama if that drama has actors she favours.
She has said she has inside information about a lot of things but the truth is that she just rehashes gossip and opinions that are popular on Weibo. But because a lot of her audience are international fans who don't have access to Weibo. They just take this as gospel. .
She just sounds so bitter that TTEOTM has done so well despite the initial mixed reviews. When she trashed it so hard. It's overall success, including it's popularity internationally, cannot be denied. It's now getting recognised.
She's also just flat out making up stuff about Luo Yunxi being the main investor now.... which (as far as I'm aware), is literally not true at all? Basically saying he intentionally made it so he could show off and look amazing. Which is it, lady? Is the drama crap and everything ugly, or is Luo Yunxi stunning and amazing, and that's why everyone likes him?
Again she just sounds bitter than people like it. That people love LYX, and love Bai Lu. She doesn't like either of them so she was never going to be completely fair to that drama.
Unlikely they will ever clarify anything for sure as I think they intentionally left it ambiguous so that people…
It is ambiguous because many people interpreted that scene as being part of an illusion, or an afterlife that Chu Yu is being lead too.
We didn't see them die but Ning Yuan Zhou's injuries were very bad and some people find it difficult to believe he could have survived that. Then there is the fact we see all of the delegation together again. (though it could also be interpreted as her imagining them as they were. )
I think they intentionally left it so that people were left with more than one option. That it was possible they may have faked their deaths, (as they had done in the past, so that would be fitting) but it could just as easily be interpreted as them having all died, but being together in death.
If it was illusion I do question why Chu Yu of all people would be imagining Ruyi and NYZ's fake kid, and not simply seeing Yu Shi San (which would have made a lot more sense) and why this imaginary child would give so many details about where his house is. This doesn't make a lot of sense to me and is one of the reasons why I understand why some lean towards them having faked their deaths.
But yes, intentionally ambiguous, so that audiences could choose which ending they prefer. I went into it thinking they would all die, or most of them would die. So I'm actually okay with either interpretation.
You watched 29 episodes in one day? The episodes are all 45-50 minutes long. There are are only 24 hours in a…
Okay, technically possible sure. But regardless of time zones, they still would have had to watch pretty much straight through, without many (if any) breaks to get through 29 episodes in that time. That's some some crazy binging.
Do we have an explanation from the cast or production team/director about the ending? I need to know how to interpret…
Unlikely they will ever clarify anything for sure as I think they intentionally left it ambiguous so that people could interpret it however they wanted.
So however you choose to see the ending is the right answer.
It hasn't finished officially. It's still airing for VIP and Non-VIP users. Only those who paid extra for the express package or watched on bootleg websites have seen all the way to the end.
I started this yesterday. I am currently on Episode 29. Can someone suggest a drama to watch after this. I am…
You watched 29 episodes in one day? The episodes are all 45-50 minutes long. There are are only 24 hours in a day. Not sure how that's even possible time wise. Did you not sleep?
HELPI am on episode 8, and I'm doing my best to keep up with this plot but it is running away without me, aigoo.So…
Yes, I'd say deep down she does think she's a bad person. She knows what she did the first time around. That doesn't just go away or cease to exist. In her mind, she still did it.
Nah, most video of them put together are actually with the filming crews, the director was in one of those, too.…
It was a Hengdian complex that more than one person was staying at. and That video was spliced in the sense that it's lots of different footage but there's no way to know when each segment took place. She walks into a building, she walks out of a building (Though we don't see the building so we can't know if this was the same building she walked into) This was, according to the paparazzi, on the 8th of September, which was the day of/just after the wrap party for SOKP. He walks into a building but there is no way to know if this was on the same day of her walking in. So it really is just based on what the melon is saying happened.
Her manager did kind of deny it, and implied this was created to drum up publicity by IQiyi (He really does have a big mouth lol...) She, essentially, referred to herself as single on a variety show soon afterwards. Asking another cast member to help her find a boyfriend. I would say this is kind of a denial without having to specifically address the rumour.
Maybe they are dating or maybe they were at one point in time (or maybe it's something in between and they were just having a fling. Which is perfectly fine too and I'm sure happens often with actors who have little time for much else.) . I don't know their personal lives and that's really their business. but at the same time if the paparazzi are willing to blur out other actors faces to imply that two actors are having dinner together, (as WXY was referring to ) Well, it also wouldn't surprise me if they would intentionally try to spin something a certain way.
before starting this drama I had asked how this drama was compared to SOKP...most of the comments said it was…
It's just going to be down to the individual. So there's no right or wrong answer there.
Personally, though SOKP had it's moments I definitely have enjoyed and like AJTL a lot more overall. (and yes, I include the ending in that) I like that it was about the journey - it's the ancient drama version of a road trip movie.
My favourite drama of the year is definitely still Till The End Of The Moon though.

Intentionally created for maximum feels.
Her manager did kind of deny it, and implied this was created to drum up publicity by IQiyi (He really does have a big mouth lol...)

I doubt we'll ever know the truth.
