oh okay. No problem

what's the relationship between jjy and cdl's characters?

it's confirmed we're fawking cooked 😭 well I have 0 hope for the script and I'm 100% sure dudu and kiku are gonna be mistreated bc gjm loves using women as scapegoat for yaoi bait...can just say I'm happy my fave girls are gonna become friends

Ik the fl is gonna cause discourse when this airs but I'm so sat solely bc of her like sometimes we don't need bad girls we just want to relate to unmotivated b!tches like ourselves who want to survive and go home and take a nap 😭 genuinely need them to stay faithful to the salted fish essence and give us a real idgaf queen

and btw hypocrisy at its finest is using "she looks like a mom" as a drag bc what is a mom exactly supposed to look like??? FYI the woman in ur pfp became a mom at 31 so I wouldn't use that as a drag if it was me lmao

Fr like the way these ppl act like any actress that's older than 30 is a grandma is so gross...always infantilizing grown ass men and treating women like objects that stop being attractive and desirable the moment they get past a certain age lol

you ppl are so out of touch with reality with the way you talk abt women past the age of 25 in the ent industry like they're 50 with 5 children and grandkids 😭 like if you step outside and touch grass you'd know a 37 y/o woman doesn't look that different from a 30 y/o and Victoria, pretty much like every other rich celeb, has access to good skincare and probably works out regularly too and looks much younger than her age as well. Like I'm sorry but you'd not even guess she was past 30 if the internet didn't tell u her age lmao

I usually find period dramas involving the harem very misogynistic with how they always portray every woman except the protagonist as materialistic airheads with no personality other than being jealous of e/o, competing over men's attention; So I hope this one is not sexist soap opera and actually gives the other harem female characters depth as well

Jun's pony is the highest one I've ever seen in a costume cdrama like okay ariana grande 😭

Don't really care what woman hating mdl users anf yaoi soldiers say wen xiao is an amazing, unique and very complex character (my fave among the whole ensemble tbh even though gjm sort of abandoned her char and stopped trying to develop her at some point) and to me cdl put out the he strongest acting performance in this show. She also pulled the biggest uno reverse by how she has great chem with every single one in the cast while so many ppl kept bashing her previously for not having chem with her partners. No matter what relationships she has with another char, she executes the emotions so well I fvcking d!e for her duo with ANYBODY. Sisterly love, romantic love, friendly love. Hell she even has chemistry with the little kids as a big sister 😭 She had chemistry with chars that had a 2 min cameo like she's CRAZY!!!!
All the actors here have previously had the spotlight but cdl is the one who got to show her full potential for the 1st time amd I'm happy for her, even with gjm's shortcomings and how he very expectedly stops caring about female characters after a dozen episodes lol

dir. yin tao is the kind of idol drama director that comes out with very surpringly good stuff out of absolutely nowhere every once in a while so this could turn out to be a very good one while not many are expecting anything from it 🤷🏻‍♀️ I mean they're saying it's super high budget and all but I don't think this is a genre the main leads' fans are particularly into, that's why I'm saying it might end up attracting an unexpectedly different audience if the investigation part is actually good!

so romance confirmed 🫠 well at least I hope it actually blends well and is super subtle bc romance side plot in mystery investigation dramas are usually very cringe and out of place...idk I'm kind of getting sick of and bored with hetero romance and need lulu to explore different geners but her boss is yz so whatever ig. Please just have good writing and do the mystery part justice!!!!

this was filmed in summer and should've aired on summer 2024 to match the vibes, not during the dead of the winter next year lmfao

losing my sh!t over youku's twt for this show 😭

the male characters' wigs are criminal offence 💀

The way this scored 7.5 on douban further proves than idol dramas should do what they're supposed to do which is be fun and entertaining without interrupting the fun by inserting huge plotholes and terrible writing. Intl fans always call cnetz and douban users crazy haters (which is also kind of racist tbh) but the way the only xianxia/xuanhuan idol dramas that get better ratings and good feedback in china are the lighthearted and cute ones (clj, bftb, tiger & rose are pretty much the only ones I can think of) prove they really aren't haters and the thing that baffles them is a show that thinks it's edgy and serious but has spent 0 effort to make the writing serious as well lmao

many of us girlies want it 😭

ermmm...most bai lu stans are women lol

I find it so odd that producers always make detective mystery shows with men leading it bromance and also sell the cp as much as they can but woman protagonists' partners in detective/investigation shows always have to be men lol. Where are the sismance detective dramas?? 🤒
