Zhao Yiling’s eyes expressions convey too much maturity; which doesn’t synch well with the younger character she is portraying. I don’t think that role (ZF) was right for her.
Actually, my main issue with this production is why Zhao Yiling only has ONE facial expression for every single scene? She is a better actress than that... at least, she used too.
I am on episode 8 but I am having a really hard time watching it. I like the 2 main leads (in other projects); however in this drama, they both feel so unpolished. It’s bizarre.
If you think about it from a psychological view, someone who has never felt he's received real love from his parents…
Hmmmmm... I thought about it. Are you saying that all unfortunate orphans and unwanted adoptees who did not receive love throughout their upbringings are also psychologically and emotionally impaired, as well?
Hmmmmm... I don’t agree with you. We are more resilient and more adaptable than we give ourselves credits for... It is a matter of letting or of not letting our inner demons in control of our actions.
These futile extra episodes were a complete let-down by the writer and the director.
I’ve been a fan of the manhua for so long, and have been waiting for this drama for years, but I’m disappointed…
You must have not checked Leo Wu’s recent projects at all... This kid sprouted out like a giant beanstalk in the last couple of years. He is around 6 feet tall now and still growing taller. Earlier this year, in one of his last projects - Guardians of the Ancient Oath, although the released drama was just average; Leo Wu’s physical transformations did not go unnoticed. His lean-muscular features and tall stature are no jokes. He sure does not look innocent anymore.
As for Dilraba Dilmurat, she is well equipped with features that can portray a wide range of roles. Young and weak or mature and strong. I, for once, approve of the casting for these 2 leading actor and actress. And I am actually very intrigued to see how that “Ancient Chinese Noona Romance” is going to play out...
Ice Adonis With the same FL but her revenge was as cold as liquid nitrogen.
I wish her character in Lie After Lie was as strong as she was in Ice Adonis. In this one, I find her character too passive and a bit irrational. Then again, she was suffering from an extreme PTSD.
Indeed, it is certainly going to be a painful drama to watch. In whatever era Mo Ran is in, I am always on the…
You too, stay safe and healthy.
The FDA is in process of approving 3 vaccines from 3 different distributors. The general public should be able to get free access to those vaccines within a month or so.
I think that I should have free time starting next week. I should be able to resume my reading.

Yep! The boy is IN LOVE!!! Head over hill... in love...

I have never watched the novella (didn’t know that there was one) but I have read the book, Candide by Voltaire. I am francophone; French literature was part of my school curriculum.
As for my name, I am not sure about any relation with the 17 century French philosopher. Since Voltaire was just his pen-name.
It is amazing how 2 people from different backgrounds and cultures can share similarities in their up-bringings. And please, do not apologize. This is not spamming but sharing common interest. Fyi: I still remember how my uncle and I used to sneak out to the theater, in order to watch the most newest installments of The Karate Kid.
I understand your frustration; however, you could see this Xianxia produced tv adaptation as a slow and light…
I hope that they didn’t turn the televised storyline into a straight one. For me, that would be way too much of a stretch from the novel’s original storyline.
I do understand due to Chinese restrictions and censorship; it could not be depicted as a full pledged BL... But at least, the romance between the 2 main lead characters should be ambiguous, as it was in The Untamed.

Oh! This dialogue is making me nostalgic:)...
For me, it was my uncle Michel. He was an extreme avid of anything Asian martial arts; that includes films. Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Chuck Norris with those flamboyant colored film sets, iridescent costumes and over-the-top storylines... were my childhood.
By the time, the world was introduced to the beautiful special effects and imageries of CGI... Uncle Michel had already passed away. We didn’t get to enjoy together the wonders of: -Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon -House of Flying Daggers -Nirvana in Fire -Six Flying Dragons -Ever Night -The Swordsman
I apologize; I rambled on:)... Your comment brought so many memories.

Leo’s current physique exudes many attributes, for sure...
However, innocence is definitely not one of them;)

Well, when he is not playing a badass hot villain.

The boy is IN LOVE!!!
Head over hill... in love...
However, mortalities are at an all-time high.
Yes, this pre-released Xianxia drama is getting the best PR ever!!!
I am glad that I made your morning.
They really look cute together.
Thank you:)
Happy watching...
