No, thank you :) I read your post on The Untamed.

I understand what you mean, but then why has this movement not died out yet and still has new members? The problem will not go away. if you close your eyes. Cancer will not stop growing if you pretend it's not there.
Of course, I am not persuading anyone to do anything. We are adults and make the decisions we see fit for ourselves - I'm not arrogant enough to say that my point of view is the best. All I know is that I was ignoring The Untamed and when I got in there those photos scared me. If a new fan is exclusively sugar-fed, they won't know there is a different point of view. I don't want to start a war with the CPF, but neither do I want them to turn the MDL into a recruiting point. Even in Chongdu, the police had to intervene because the CPF was selling wedding photos - guess whose.
If a teenage girl watches The Untamed today and is delighted with this drama, goes to MDL and finds out that the actors are currently in a super secret relationship known only to Yizhan, do you think she can't be persuaded to sugar? A sweet lie is more fun than a bitter truth. This chain, if we ignore it, will last forever, because The Untamed triggers a desire in young people to make it a reality. This has been going on continuously for two years and has not changed, although xfx ignores the problem.
These are my observations. This is my opinion. Of course I respect yours and I don't think it's wrong.

He will definitely be shooting something. Interestingly, I haven't even heard any sensible rumors as to what it will be. Fans have their guesses and hopes, of course, but we've all learned to wait patiently for official news, and those aren't there yet.
After finishing YGY there won't be much time until the end of the year, about five months, so I personally bet on one drama as ML and one or two small roles in larger productions. I don't have any titles, but I expect something more serious, more ambitious. This is my feeling based on XZ's desire to grow and the reaction of high-end directors to it. After some of XZ's adventures, I guess CCTV will try very hard to get XZ to star in some of their drama.
Overall, I bet XZ will do one commercial drama a year for Tencent and one drama (film) of a more ambitious production, maybe propaganda. The third XZ project will get the scenario that convinces him the most. Maybe these are just my imaginations and fantasies, but XZ is a boy who wants to please everyone and not lose himself at the same time, so it would be perfect for everyone if he alternately plays in something more ambitious and in something commercial.

For me, drama is bromance. If someone has no idea that the drama was written on the basis of BL, they will never guess it. Being aware of the nature of the source changes perception. People simply add a deeper meaning to scenes that do not matter much to a total passer-by.
Anime is more BL, but also far from Japanese yaoi. Some flirting, some undertones, but no daring scenes or bold confessions.

Well said! Let's focus on the drama itself.
If any of the new fans are particularly interested in one of the actors, please visit the MDL page dedicated to this actor / actress. Comments are more active on some pages, less on others, but you can learn a lot and ask your own question. Within a few days (sometimes even a few minutes) you should get an answer :)

A few days ago I reported a few photos of CP and at least one other person did the same. Thank you. Almost all of these photos have been deleted. I am grateful to the moderators for taking care of this matter.
There are two photos left, which I probably gave a bad reasoning to remove. Today I renewed my request because these photos are a photomontage harmful to the image of XZ.
I am very happy that almost all photos have disappeared and once again I express my gratitude to the moderators.

I also ask you, dear friends, to monitor The Untamed. If a deceptive photo comes up, please report it. Let's keep MDL clean.

I wonder what to do with the comments? I think maybe from today we should politely remind you that WWX and LWJ were just roles and fans should not transfer their relationship to the actors. It was all fake, just as XZ pretended to be shorter than WYB to suit the role. We may not fix the beliefs of people who already believe, but we may stop others from joining this movement.

If the CPF read my words and felt offended or confused, I would be happy to explain what I mean in detail. Just ask. I will not bite. All conflicts arise out of misunderstanding, so let's enter into a dialogue and present our points of view.

When XZ started in late 2015, people told him he was too lukewarm and lacking stage charisma. Hmm, I thought so too when I looked at him. He was a man outside the business. He made his debut in 2016 as a singer and as an actor, he played his first role in a normal series in 2017. When XZ played the role of YBY, it was three days on set, three days off, which he took from the set of The Untamed. Breaking out of a role as emotionally deep as WWX (I may not like this show, I may not like WWX, but XZ played the role so millions of viewers fell in love almost at first sight) was not easy. Today, even XZ's biggest critics shut their mouths about his acting. XZ's progress as an actor is so fast that if he played YBY now - no, I'd rather not imagine it.
Today, XZ can be hot and cold, but to his fans he is always warm, like a big brother. For several years he has been called "the man with a hundred faces" and "the man who heals hearts".
If someone reading this comment is still wondering why XZ is so popular and what all the hype, after all, he is an ordinary actor like many, I invite you to watch Our Song season 1 from episode 3 on, YT is with subtitles .

Thank you, I hope this helps too.

I went to The Untamed website (here on MDL) today and a cold sweat was pouring over me. The photo gallery has become a temple of Yizhan followers. I kindly asked the person who posted these photos to remove these photo montages, after all, MDL is not there to spread the Yizhan movement, but to give information about the drama. This person replied, and you can read her comment under the photo that if I don't like it, I can report the photo. So, at her suggestion, that's what I did.

I looked through seven pages and submitted all of Yizhan's photos. Photos from concerts, photos from commercials, photos from the set, which are photomontages. I encourage you and ask you to do the same. Regardless of my personal attitude towards CPF, I firmly believe that this is not the place to post fake photos and convince new fans that Yizhan is real. I find it distasteful. Not only that, I find it harmful for the drama, for the actors and for the new fans themselves. Fans who went through the 2020 incident know what I mean. So please take a few minutes and report these photos too. Five voices are better heard than one, and ten voices are better heard than five.

Let's keep the MDL clean. Let's protect XZ from spreading harmful rumors.

If any CPF has objections to what I wrote, I invite you to a dialogue.

You know this is a fake photo? Please don't spread fake photos.

Thank you, I'll do that.

Originally, LWJ was supposed to have even fewer scenes in the drama. The first scenario was for ML and FL. During the filming of the drama, fans of the book threatened to boycott if FL appeared, and forced the production to expand the LWJ thread. This drama started off as a classic, where we have a male (WWX) hero and a female hero.

If you don't tell him it's based on BL, it should be ok. I warned my friend not to watch because it's based on BL, but he watched and to this day he is insulting the actors. He says it's because of the xianxia elements, not bL, but he doesn't criticize other xianxia drama, just this one.

A request to everyone not to put photos of cp or not related to drama, especially all kinds of photomontages are unwelcome. This is not a site for cp, but a site for those who want to know something about drama or express their opinion about it. This is not the place to spread cp sugar.

Moderators, please, keep order in the photos. A photo montage showing actors working on completely different projects or advertising some products has nothing to do with drama. Likewise, the whole fan of the article. I know most of the people on this forum are cp, but please place moderation and common sense and most of all don't spread lies.

Can you please delete this fake photo? This is not a cpf site and this photo is false and misleading people. This photo is just a lie.
