Ah thanks for the info. I read Van Gulik's info in Wikipedia but I wasn't clear who he translated it from. So it was from an unknown author.
So basically he wrote his own fanfiction based on the characters.

Hello. Yes, looking forward to his appearance. I saw him in the trailer but haven't seen him yet. I heard he will be in a later episode.

I think it's slowly picking up audiences. I've watched up to 4 and getting intrigued.

That means it's quite a good show despite the angst.

I see. I'm going to see (and skip, LOL) for myself then :)

Yes, I have tried to watch more properly earlier episodes and he did appear quite frequent as well.

How are you with Season 2 watching?

Yeah, I wasn't specifically looking for spoilers but I want to know whether it's happy ending or not usually because I don't want to be emotionally invested in something that long to be disappointed later on.
I read that POC is one of a very depressing shows so I went to look for spoilers.

Definitely.

Xianxia is not my cup of tea, although I haven't actually watched on xianxia properly, the premise itself is not appealing to me. Ironic, given Cheng Yi got famous playing Xianxia. But yes to Wuxia.

LOL, another update. I haven't rewatched it but very tempted to.

Ah yes, I still need to watch earlier episodes of Season 1 with Jing Yu then go to Season 2. It seems Jing Yu can appear a lot in some episodes then disappear for a few episodes :)

I heard Season 2 is full of flashback so perhaps you can skip that part safely :)

What do you think of POC? I heard it's super depressing and CY character died not the end but near the end. That's why I don't want to watch it.

LOL, It's OK, we love your updates.

That's true. I guess because it's an older show which tend to have a lot of fillers.

Yes :)

I see. Thanks for your explanations.

Cool :)

Ah I heard that show is quite depressing for Cheng Yi's fans so I might skip it. I'm looking forward to "Heroes Legend" and "Deep Lurk" if it is ever going to air. I don't mind Republican drama as long as I ignore the propaganda part.

LOL, yes, watch DTL for Cheng Yi. I think it's the only show he didn't spit any blood although he didn't spit much blood in NA as well. But if it's not interesting, you can always drop it.

Ah I clicked on it and it needs my password and email and just realized I need to register first. Perhaps later because I don't really know how discord works. Is it like a chatroom?

Yes, the plots are interesting. I think they just have some draggy parts but the stories are OK,

Ah yes, I didn't know he got an award for NA. It's well deserved.

LOL, yes, I think MLC gain Cheng Yi a lot of new fans. Yes, I love your avatar.

What's POC? Sorry, I'm a bad CY's fan.

DTL indeed has a lot of interesting cases and often it's hard to see which side is the "right" side.

LOL, yeah, it's really hard to catch up with all our watchlists.

I think you enjoyed the plots mostly.

I don't plan to skip that much, it's just I'm busy at the moment and want to know what happened to poor Jing Yu after 33. I might watch more later on.

I think CY was indeed one of the best actors as shown during his confrontation with his master.

Yes, like his look in "Love in Times".

Yes. He is really good in "Love in Times" too. I am usually not a fan of shows focused mostly on romance but gave exception that show because Yang Xu Wen portrayed two same characters with 4 months apart hence there were some difference due to character growths really well.

LOL, yes for the Prince of Tennis although I know that the actor playing him is really famous as well (I don't watch that many C-dramas but I know some actors are famous like Alan Ren but doesn't mean I have watched their dramas)

True about CY's sad scenes.
Yes, "Draw the Line" is not depressing. The cases are interesting. My mom watched that so I knew some of the earlier cases although I didn't know CY back then so I just thought he was just another famous guy but had no idea what he was famous for (same as other actors I know were famous but I don't watch the show). LOL. Now I totally blame MLC for becoming one of CY's fans.

That's good that you get the whole part of the stories, unlike me.

I think we won't miss much with the flashbacks.

Yes, I remember that most teachers wanted him as their student in the first episode. He is really that good to be able to relearn so quickly.

I like all those characters you mentioned except for the prince of poison because I skipped a lot of his part 🤣
I have watched The Condor Heroes (2017) and Strange Tales of the Tang Dynasty so was pleasantly surprised to see Yang Xu Wen playing Qing Long here.

Ah yes, I skipped those parts. Also surprised that Alan Ren was playing the fox.

Yes, I think Cheng Yi got recognised more from this show. Just saw that from a YouTube video yesterday that he worked for 9 years in the industry before getting his A-list status now after Love and
Redemption .
Yeah, I should watch his other shows besides Mysterious Lotus Casebook for more CY but I don't like Xian Xia and his other costume shows are mostly
depressing from what I heard.

I do like this show but it's so draggy so I skipped a lot. I like the premise of the show as it's pretty simple as compared to more modern show.

1. Ah OK, yes, it makes sense that he is worried about Xiao Fan.

True and they match better.

2. I am not sure if they ever mentioned it because of all the skipping 🤣
It makes sense if it's senior uncle as he's the only one close to Jing Yu at that time.

3. Wow, he is indeed super talented to be able to relearn so fast plus it's good with the skills from the senior uncle.
