Nope, this is no longer based on that novel (the summary on MDL is wrong). It is considered a separate IP now…
Okay but it's just questionable because they've been hyping up the novel adaptation of that book for a long time and I was genuinely excited to see actually good representation of en ethnic minority in a cdrama since most costume dramas depict tribal and non Han people as uncivilised barbars. And about the latter part of your comment, context matters my friend!!! There's a difference between actors from ethnic minorities playing Han characters versus Han people being possibly cast as already underrepresented ethnic minority that's also frequently discriminated against, specially when the STORY has heavy cultural nuances.
Besides everything I find the concept of a south korean genie fvcking hilarious 😠like did Girls' generation summon him in 2009?? How did he end up in dubai??? It'll probably end up being so bad that I'll love it lmfao
Not #him being exactly the type of male celeb A dream within a dream made fun of 😠(now that I think about it at least the character in adwad was actually attractive and 190 cm tall. What the hell does this botched mf have for him and his fans to possess such ego??? Being a man is so easy istg)
Isn't one of the main characteristics of the og novel the fact that it's about uyghur people and uyghur culture?????? Landi is Hui and they even changed the ethnic names...love landi this is just foul and offensive I'm sorry
This dynamic sounds sooo cute though Idk if I'll be convinced by them as a couple but I feel like I will love them as platonic partners in crime/coworkers ðŸ˜
Were people pissed off? I didn’t see anything like that in the comments here. We were all just wishing for reconciliation.…
It's actually rated 8 on douban which is quite a shocker considering it's a low budget idol drama so yeah it should probably be rated higher in here ^_^ I'm gonna watch it after xianyu then tysm
1) I feel 33 episodes are too few: I want SJ interacting with Tingyan in her modern world - which is Tingyan's…
It's pretty typical of transmigration stories to never adress the transgmiator's real life. And tbh it'd be a pointless thing to adress unless they're something like time travelers who keep going back and forth between universes and timelines, which is not the case for most of these stories.

I've been planning to watch it since forever (really love zwy's acting). I was so shocked to see how well received it was since it came out of nowhere and nobody expected it to be good lol
i don't think i have ever seen a drama couple's love that is this tender, to the point it hurts yet also healing,…
omg I thought i was the only one who was down so bad for this ship that my heart LITTERALLY hurts when I watch them together...I kid you not when I say the burning urge to scream and weep whenever I think about them is driving me insane and honestly Idk what kind of entertainment and escapism this mentally damaging obsession is anymore lol

Omg I never watched LYF2 because people said the same thing about it as well...Now this is why I hate long dramas🫠I don't understand why they have to be so long if the writers can't come up with proper ways to continue the story smh
I stopped at episode 10Not because I don't like the sereisBecause I feel like this might have a sad endingAnd…
I'm not 100% sure but kind of certain they will show at least a small snippet of them in the modern times even if they end up d-wording in this universe. (according to the trailers)
