Not her next rumored project being an idol drama again. And with a horrible director and a male lead with a trashy pr team who won't let the fl get the spotlight for god's sake 😭 I am so DONE...she deserves much better than this

lmfao as if mdl is "reliable" when it's flooded with fandoms who rate everything with a shit tone of plot holes and 0 logical sense and bad production high bc their faves are in them...douban users are haters but at least they don't suck up to everyone and everything that's popular regardless of the ACTUAL quality of writing, acting and production ...

she's giving forest fairy in her gq gala look 😭

it's because it's the same VA

I'm kinda worried after the two recent stellar media xianxia adaptations turned out a little dissapointing to me (and not very generally well received) 😭 but I'm gonna trust Esther's drama choices and bai jinjin to do a good job with the script

oh okay...wiki d addict said she played a cameo and since that one is usually more accurate than mdl I thought it was true

lmfaooo I can't...li qin who has been acting for 15 years and has actually been praised by critics for minor roles despite her crappy pr team's afforts to sabotage her doesn't "want" to challenge herself...as if she has a grand number of big female centric dramas offered to her everyday to choose from and she somehow "decides" to do secondary characters in male centric shows like a psychopath...

I've personally watched very few old cdramas as well but it's a pretty common topic of discussion among cnetz

I'm so proud of her magnolia awards is a HUGE deal in china 😭 nobody can come for her now we will be sticking this into their faces lol

It's really not just censorship...the talented writers in question are never even hired in the first place to do their job. Censorship has always existed in china but why is it that even the general public of chn collectively agrees cdramas were of Much better quality before the mid 2010s? bc making money has become more important than maintaining the quality of scripts and production. It's just capitalism at the end of the day but I don't really wanna go there since this isn't the place for it lol

I'm very serious when I say we NEED a funny fantasy romcom with pretty non trafic but popular hot leads... like this year's xianxias have been sooo dull iqiyi is dumb as hell 😭

yall my prophecy is fulfilled they actually and really and for real put god damn fsmm before this 😭 what is their problem

-> use me as the fuck iqiyi button -<

I've never read it anyways I was just talking about the rumours lol

I can assure you china being conservative is not the problem though lol

ik it's an idol drama produced by yuzehng and I don't expect a masterpiece of a plot but I hope the trailer is not just bait and they fully commit to making things as crazy and makjang-y as possible...like I don't care if it's exaggerated and insane as long as it's the fun and entertaining kind of nonsense but I can't forgive a safe and boring snoozer revenge drama lol

tbh I don't mind even if esther plays cutie patootie characters until she's a granny lol she found her strength and she always picks really fun dramas where the chars she does are a contradiction to society's cliche assumptions of women and I love that so much! Most of the girls she's done have been hyper feminine or very adorable but also really strong and hardworking and also incredibly clever in different professions and that's what makes her special 💕 I don't necessarily think the only way she can prove herself as an actress is through "versatility" or whatever, she has a good eye for fun scripts and has a certain unique brand for herself which is gonna make a memorable celebrity for generations and that's more than fine :)
