Is that why the ratings are low for this now?? Because drama wise this should have been a solid 8.5+ easily..
Actually, what happened was that Cheng Yi's fans demanded the removal of the second female lead back in March because she was getting more exposure than the leading lady. Then, Cheng Yi’s fans spread an audio file aka scandal, and by April, the production crew had removed the second female lead’s name from the drama's official announcements.
Fast forward to May 2025 — the account associated with Han Rui kept leeching off Xiao Zhan’s drama, which deeply annoyed XFX . They were frustrated that "Chicken Mouth" (cy mouth looks the same with chicken) was leeching again. In response, XFX used the same audio file that Cheng Yi's fans had used earlier to get the second female lead removed.
You know how massive XFX is, so the audio spread like wildfire. And the leeching hasn't stopped even now.
As a PR tactic, the assistant admitted to editing the audio clip, which means there’s no longer any way to confirm whether the recording was authentic — someone already took the blame. Most of the C-netizens don’t believe the second female lead’s excuses and feel like the production crew is treating them like fools.
I watch this drama thinking it was a horror genre ? randomly netflix suggested it and now I think WWX is a superb character. Gonna check the actors other work. My favorite part of the show is when WWX committed suicide the pain is so good ?. Hope there will be a season 2.
