I love Gong Jun, partly because he is just so handsome lol. The first drama i saw Dilraba in was The Long Ballad. I HATED her there. I don’t know why they always like the stories about women dressing up as men. Like how could anybody buy her as a man? It was so off putting that i try to avoid anything she’s in. Although when i saw Eternal Love, she was fine-ish…

There’s no spark between Dilraba and Gong Jun because Dilraba isn’t a man. Gong Jun is the master of BL (in Chinese speak, it’s “censored adaptation of same sex original work”), and anything else is just not gonna work. 😂

So basically are you saying, this should have been a great BL, but because of Chinese censorship, they added a woman to pass censorship, but anyone and everyone ships the two male leads?

I will make note of that! I haven’t really paid any attention to the director or author of source materials or screenwriter so far. It just feels like maybe the author/screenwriter got slighted by a man once and now she’s on a revenge tour. (I’m assuming the screenwriter is a she.)

Thank you for your review! I’m on episode 21 and I’m so over it. Totally fed up with Ding Zhi Tong and her childish, selfish ways. I will let it play to the end, because I hate unfinished series even more than I hate what’s going on in this show. Also I love Arthur Chen. I think I should have watched When Destiny Brings the Demon instead. 😩

Omg! I’m on episode 21 and I’ve already had enough of Ding Zhi Tong. She is so self centered and childish and only thinks about herself. Like, she won’t even give him a chance to explain and keeps lying about being married to that other guy (who is really cute btw, as a side note). I can’t stand female characters like this, where they only think they’re right and everything they do is out of spite and anger and serve ZERO PURPOSE. I suppose if I’m to finish this series I’ll have to suffer to the end, which according to your review, is so not worth it. 😩
