Thank you very much for this great article! You explained very well why the productions in China are being dubbed…
If it's a drama/movie that's originally a certain language and was dubbed by a different language, I would always opt for the original with subs! But for Cdramas, they dub chinese with another chinese so I don't think there's a choice there xD
Thank you for reading!

Hey there, compatriot! Congratulations on your first article 😊This is a really unique write up, I don't think…
Thank you so much for your kind words :D
Now that I think about it, it does differentiates between Asia dramas! Other than them speaking Chinese, it was the dub over that make us know it's a CN production!
Thank you for reading!

I'm surprised that Chu Xuanji and Changge's voice actors are the same person.Btw I think Zhao Lusi is also using…
Me too, I was surprised too! But then when I think back and remember their voice I'm like: 'YEHH SAME VOICE'.
I honestly think Zhao Lusi is a mix of both her voice and a dub over? I could not really find any solid information on it so I didn't put her in.
Thank you for reading!

I must say, I agree and happy to read this.Once upon a time I almost hated chinese dramas because the v/o was…
Yes, I totally agree with you. I also once hated Cdramas because of the production and mainly voice dubbing. But it has been improving slowly. That is only why I started watching them. Now I can't get out of it xD

Thank you for reading and your kind comment!

I don't mind dubbing as long as it's done well. My worst dubbing experience was when an anime character who had…
Thank you for keeping an open-minded while reading this article. This topic is quite controversial :'D

And yes, even though I really like voice dubbing, that does not include those that are badly done. Also, I'm very selective when it comes to Cdramas :)

That's saddening to hear an ANIME character's voice actor got changed. I would've been mad about it. You have a very good temper!

I think my biggest problem with dubbing is after I watch the same actor in different dramas. Their voices change…
Yes, sometimes I think that voice dubbing shouldn't be the reason why people avoid Cdramas. I once did that myself and kinda regret it ( you watch famous dramas only when the hype is over, no fun :'D )
I hope you can adjust to those voice changes and thank you for reading !

Thank you for spending time on giving it a thought ! I don't think you're overthinking. Personally, despite liking…
HAHA , I totally get you. I major in arts too and usually stuff like these just make us begs the question of why XD

I don't really like dubs in Cdrama's especially when you watch an actor in one drama with dub and another without…
This is also one frustrating issue but I am somehow okay with it as it allows me to explore more voice actors :))
Thank you for reading!

Audio dramas are so interesting and so far I only find China doing it! And yes, I agree with you that CN actually has more than enough budget to make a better production. Voice dubbing aside, the editors/production team are the lazy ones that do bad syncing causing people to hate dub overs which is kinda sad as voice actors actually do a very good job.

For the Cdrama pages on MDL it would be nice to have a section that tells us who in the cast has been dubbed.…
Thank you so much for saying this !🥺
You basically concluded my whole article. Many was blinded by how bad the production/syncing the Cdramas are and really overlooked the effort made by voice actors.

I myself am very into radio dramas/audio dramas and really appreciate how they produced emotions through only voice.

I could not deny that there are really times that the syncing really gets on my nerves but this could not be blamed onto the culture of voice dubbing but the production/editors team.

I strongly agree with you on how voice is where the heart of performance lies :) And, it would be great to give credits to voice actors in MDL :D
Thank you for reading!

I agree with everything, but you can't compare Chinese dialects with English dialects. I heard it's like speaking…
I agree with you, China dialects it's a whole new world. If you don't learn it, you'll never be able to understand.

Yes, sometimes bad syncing throws me off too! I agree with you. And I think you are able to check if the actors…
Thanks for the recommendation ! I'll be sure to check on Wang Kai! Not gonna miss a single swoon-worthy voices out there!

Thanks for this article. I understand the reason for them to dub, but I think they need to improve a lot. I'm…
I hope Brazil will get someone to dub any Cdramas you wished to watch ! And yes, I think Cdramas has a lot of space of improvements. Maybe you could start with Cdramas that have actors dubbing their own voices? I reckon there are some on Netflix.
Thank you for reading!

I have to say that I usually don't have a problem with actors not voicing themselves.Maybe it's because that since…
I TOTALLY agree with you!! Some might not realize how hard and amazing of a job voice actors do :') And not everyone is that great in controlling their voices cause if that is the case, they might as well just become a voice actor, aye?
Thank you for reading !

Thank you for this article!!! I also fell in love with dubbing for the first time after watching The Untamed!!…
I KNOW !! The Untamed was the one that made me think, "Hey, voice dubbing is not that bad after all ?!"
Bian Jiang's voice just breaks down all the walls for me. His voice its JUST.SO.GOOD ! I could not imagine him whispering into my ears , it'll send shivers down my spine XD
I hope he will work on some audio dramas so I can have MORE eargasm !!<3<3
Thank you for sharing that information, I will check up on Wang Kai ;)
Also, thank you for reading !

I speak and understand Mandarin and I think the reasons given on MDL and in this article for dubbing are weak…
Okay, maybe that's a tad bit of overthinking on the communist China but it's okay, everyone can't like the same thing. Thank you for sharing your opinions though! :))
