Title My Dearest
Standard in what way?
Yeap, i meant a fighting scene that lasts a few minutes, or its not made by multiple short shots (many pose shots of the actor on the same spot, different posture, and little movement to body vs body fighting). Martial arts always exist in man to man battles-even in western movies/dramas. Most actors that are trained in fighting (both westerns and asians) have learnt at least 1 kind of martial art or a combo-depending on their trainer. You can recognize them when you see long one shot scenes (2-5 minutes, little to no montage and cutting of scenes), and of course from the body build of the actor/actress-they are usually very toned. Martial arts are not necessarily exist in the battle choreography (esp in historical movies its unrealistic to watch pure martial arts moves, when people fight in the war, they just fight and use their fighting knowledge, and at that time, martial arts were just a part of the training), but the choreographer gets the basic postures and movements and mix them with realistic moves depending on the battle-era-country etc
The best way to find such dramas/movies, is to search for actors that are known to be specialized in long battle stuff, use no body doubles or much cgi and follow their filmography.

Title My Dearest
Standard in what way?
Action scenes in My Dearest are not only less in quantity, but of a short length, which means that is more of a "pose" style of shooting, not much movement (physical movement-not cgi)
The safe search option is to look for certain actors who are very well trained (both men and women) in physical action movements, martial arts etc and follow their filmography and dramas

Title My Dearest
Standard in what way?
Search for older ones-especially those over 30 episodes length.
Nowadays there are not many battle scenes even in pure battle dramas. Reason being: actors are not as qualified and trained in battle, be it martial arts, sword etc as the older ones, plus cgi that has sadly replaced physical action.
In chinese dramaland, i think there are more of this genre, old and new ones

Title My Dearest
Im so fed up with that and i may be the only one who doesnt find a single resemblance. There are many couples…
Let me first take something out of me:
The drama GOBLIN IS GOD hahahahahah
To be honest, dramaland-not only the asian one-but globally-is a fast moving industry that little to no cares about quality. That applies to movies too, but there there's more time to create things, to be inspired, to make what we call as Art.
Dramas are more on the dogma: quantity over quality. There's little time and certain budget, numbers of views to hit, ratings, commercial and so on. What i mean its that is harder to make a really top quality drama than to make a top quality movie (in movies you can always make indie ones) but in dramas if you do that, nobody would invest so its like you never did it. Thats why in dramas they follow more often, same tropes, cliches, anything that would catch the viewers eye.
To me, the only thing i truly appreciate when i see it on screen in dramas, is if and when there's creativity by the actors and the whole production team-leaving aside anything else. If i sense or see a pure marketing product i just spit on it and turn my back no matter the ratings. But not all people have the same criteria. Some are watching similar dramas cause of a certain subject, some just kill their free time, others are more passionate and so on.
And one final note on your first comment: You mentioned something very crucial for our times: misinformation.
;Its the curse of the internet. Information itself is the most expensive product of our times. When its twisted/wrong/fake, it can bring tremendous consequences in many aspects. Many people dont search, many read only titles, others repeat what they read with no second thought, so on that aspect, its good that you pointed out the importance of spreading misinformation (such as the ultimate resemblance of 2 dramas that could lead to plagiarism theories etc).
Internet is not (only) our happy playground. Its a reality full of information.

Nowadays there's almost no parthenogenesis in art products (be it in showbiz or elsewhere) so its inevitable to get inspired by a story already told. After all, ok love is unique but its also expressed in common ways among couples, so no matter if its scarlet&rett or in an asian drama, its ok. There are also story patterns in dramas, tropes that guarantee certain success as long as the writer dont copy whole parts or dialogues n scenes-which is not the case here.
I agree with you, no matter what nothing reminds me of GWTW, maybe because i ve read and watched so many things in my life, that i already have at least 10+ stories with same dynamics between a couple.
At the end of the day, if and when a drama becomes epic, nobody cares about been inspired by another or even been a product of plagiarism (ten miles of p.b.is a perfect example of the above. We all blocked certain sites back then when the scandal occured, but the success was already there and undoubtedly TMOPB started a new era in xianxia).
If My Dearest becomes epic and huge success it wont be due to resemblances with any other story.
Funny thing is that many people went back and watch Gone with the wind, because of some comments, so i guess a part of My Dearest success is already stolen by Scarlet and her trashy lover hahhahahaha
(oh god im so old, that i almost forgot that GWTW even exists)

Your interpretation of "behind the words" stuff, has nothing to do with me. I didnt imply anything, i just expressed my emotion which is Fed Up.
I dont represent anyone but myself and if i wanna say "Fed up" i ll say "fed up". Im ok being fed up, cause thats part of human communication.
Fed up, offended, happy, sad, angry, i accept and deal with all these emotions and not play the crybaby role which i dislike. I am old enough to handle my emotions same way im expressing them without making anyone apologizing or being punished for it.
On the other hand, If you think that me or anyone violates the rules of MDL, there are ways to express it through certain actions. If you feel offended, pressured or anything, its your problem too.
I have a limit of answers to snowflakes so the current answer of mine is the last im wasting. I find it very bad mannered to continue beefs in a forum/platform that is exclusively for dramas and movies.

Title Regeneration
I think he wont be dead, at least for us viewers. Looks like he is considered as dead since there's a memorial…
Yeap, and lets not forget the "Legend" on titles, which is often a huge red flag lol.
Its very sad cause some original titles are so beautiful, be it flower names, mythical words, poetical elements etc and they get wasted by "love/romance/legend/whatever"

I think and hope that this role is Jing Bo ran's chance to finally show his acting skills. I always thought that he is so underrated as an actor. He always does his best even in low quality productions but this one looks really good

Where exactly in my comment did you see the words: block/ban/shame?
Nowhere. You just wanna shut up people who dont agree with you.
I never mentioned anything like "silencing" or ban opinions-for gods sake.
But i still have the right to express my disagreement as everyone else.

My big question is: so Fei Ke is actually dead?
I think he wont be dead, at least for us viewers. Looks like he is considered as dead since there's a memorial service going on, but from the trailer looks like he's alive in the end. After all the title itself wouldnt be "regeneration" if he was indeed dead for good

i'm so sick of the gone with the wind comments like yeah we get it , it reminds you of it at first but really…
Im so fed up with that and i may be the only one who doesnt find a single resemblance. There are many couples in dramaland who's storyline happens to develop within a war and many dramas where the FL has a crush on someone else at first. Characters have nothing in common as the timelines of the 2 stories belong to a totally different era/country/region/culturar background

Title The Greatest Love Spoiler
Only on episode 4 and this is really rough watching, I just feel so bad for the FL! Only reason i can't stop is…
I honestly dont know why im watching this. I love the main couple as actors but the story is actually non existent, both the mains are unbearable to watch as characters, their conversations make no sense, but IM STILL HERE on ep11, not skipping anything.

Title The Greatest Love Spoiler
I honestly dont know why im still watching this drama.
I literally hate all the characters-except from the little boy who i find to be witty, smart, charming, cute and most importantly-WITH BRAINS. He's got both high IQ and EQ to save the day.
The only reason i started watching is because i like the main couple actor/actress and i tend to trust my fav actors in their whole filmography.
The drama has a very beautiful thing which is a vintage vibe, all the rest is nonsense!
BUT:
Heroes have no logic, no common sense in their actions. The story is all over the place-if there is any story at all,
ML is the most repulsive character i ve ever seen in a romcom-yeah even more repulsive than the usual CEO's in dramas. He is literally as smart (emotionally and logically) as a piece of wood-maybe less.
FL is so pathetic that makes you wanna slap her through the screen.
Despite all the above, the most nonsense person is me, who is still stuck with this drama, not skipping a scene, finding the 2 mains gorgeous actingwise (as they always are TMHO)
portraying the most diverse, idiotic, made for each other, couple.

That kiss was too vanilla for me. The 2 main leads are inspired by 2 basically avant-garde, mainstream and popular…
Why did you do that to me? My drama list (both on hold and plan to watch) is FULL of dramas.
Now i have to add those 2 and im not even a fan of korean historical ones!
What have i done to deserve this :))))

There's a movie: Frozen Flower-one of my favourites though very violent and cruel.
I leave aside the extreme sex scenes between the 2 of the 3 leads
The body language of 2 men in their own scenes (there was mutual attraction but not a single actual intimate scene) is just perfection.
Ok the acting level of those 2 men cant be compared with our ML here, but there was also a magnificent direction which made the scenes precious!
