I've seen 2 episodes, and I might've missed it, but does anyone know how Qiong Nu is related to the Li family? Is she a relative?

Currently watching ep 1 and got sidelined into reading about the failed Wuxu Reform. It's such a revelation to me that there were important people who pushed for establishing constitutional monarchy in China but were silenced by the ruling conservative elite.

Does anyone know if the cast will make public appearances on variety shows, screenings, etc. for promotion?

This was very well said! I agree with you; his micro expressions truly sold me.

Now that I think about it, he was very skinny! I associated his sickly appearance with the character he was playing.

Riley, please come back on twitter! I'm begging you 😭😭😭

That's amazing!

Riley Wang really stole the show. He only had a cameo and yet every scene he was in, he made his presence known.

Does anyone know if Dylan Wang had a voice actor dub his lines or did they use his real voice?

The 2019 adaptation is hands down my favorite! It just hits and warms your heart in the right places. How they presented the story through visuals and the screenplay, it was very grounded and down to earth. The 2021 version was decent, but for me, it failed to express that melancholic feeling that I got from reading the novel and the 2019 adaptation.

The original novel's good! It's my guilty read haha I'm a sucker for stories that depict young love and secret crushes.

Decided to watch the first 20 minutes and the comedy's really pulling me in! The cinematography and direction seems to also be well done. I particularly love the scene where it transitions from the murder mystery game to a bird's eye view of the male lead transmigrating to Dafeng. Will let it marinate for a while before I continue watching.

I am so attached with Unrequited Love that I'd literally watch any and future adaptations no matter how subpar they are. 🥹 Regardless, Xin Yunlai's such an eye candy.

Currently on episode 9 and my heart is breaking for Li Haichao. He didn't have any ulterior motive for fostering both Ziqiu and Ling Xiao, and yet we have these kids' parents carelessly throwing monetary compensation at him. It's so disrespectful and downright insulting.

Whenever I see Haichao and Heping doing their usual banter, I go: 🥹🥹🥹

I initially came for Tan Songyun but was hooked by the found family story. Li Haichao's actor never fails to amaze me every episode! I might just check out his work.

I remember watching season 1 five years ago but never got around to continuing with season 2. Given the casting change from Chen Feiyu to Wang Hedi, is this sequel worth watching? Does Wang Hedi give justice to his portrayal of Ning Que?

Time and time again we're reminded through this drama that powerful families will amount to nothing without their respective matriarch.

May I ask if it's common in the industry to have a confirmed cast while there's no finalized script or direction yet?

I've been so obsessed with Ren Min these days! I trust her eye in choosing good scripts, so I'll be tuning in for this one.

Thanks for the info!
