This kind of drama is exactly my favorite genre and I’m so glad Rui is part of it. I really can’t wait to see how his character will unfold, especially since the story focuses on crime and mystery. Those kinds of plots always keep me hooked, and with Rui’s strong acting, I’m sure he’ll bring something intense and memorable to the screen👌❤️
No, they’re totally different roles. The official drama account clearly stated that Rui is credited as 特别主演 (Special Starring) which means his role is important and on par with the main leads, even if he’s not officially billed as one. It signifies that he has major screen time and a crucial part in the storyline. Meanwhile, XRN is credited as 特邀主演 (Special Guest Star) this label is completely different. It indicates a guest appearance, often in the form of a cameo or short-lead role. The word “邀” (invited) literally means she was specially invited for a limited appearance, not a long-term lead role.
The difference between “别” and “邀” in their titles already says everything:
“别” implies special lead, someone with significant weight in the story.
“邀” implies guest, someone appearing temporarily or symbolically.
As what I have saidx XRN might only appear in around two episodes or perhaps just in flashbacks, since the entire plot revolves around her death. It wouldn’t make sense for her character to appear throughout the story, as the focus is on the investigation and aftermath rather than her ongoing presence.
So, no, don't force it, they’re absolutely not equal roles. Rui’s position as “特别主演” places him at the center of the plot’s progression, while XRN’s “特邀主演” marks her as a memorable but short-lived part of the story🤦♀️
I checked the official drama page and it confirms that Rui’s role is a supporting role, while ZRN is definitely just a guest. So I don’t think there are actually two timelines esp since it’s only 12 eps.
I saw this character intro for Yani and Ryx from their trending hot searches on WB. Their scene confronting each other trended . Wow, Rui working with such a versatile actresses is gonna be amazing.
Ok, I just read the synopsis on wb and the plot feels really cinematic and high-quality. It’s intriguing, centered around uncovering the truth behind yani’s daughter’s death. ZRN is definitely just a guest role, so her appearances will probably be brief, mainly tied to the events around her death. But Rui is definitely not a guest, his role plays a major part and seems deeply involved in the mystery surrounding ZRN death.
Wait, did I read a different synopsis before? 😭 Because when I checked the page around 10 days ago if I’m not mistaken, it said something completely different. I clearly remember it mentioning a story about a girls missing or something like that 😭💀Or that's another Rui drama?
I can’t wait to see his duality in this drama. His role reminded me of Siwan in unlocked, the switch from an innocent to a creepy personality is chilling and I know Rui will slay it👌
