Zhao Lusi has become my go to actress. I can’t even watch Hallmark romances anymore because she’s set the bar so high. There is a difference between a skin deep drama/performance and a bone deep drama/performance. In a single frame she can make me cry and fall in love. That’s bone deep. She also understands 3-dimensional characters and what it takes to create them. For me, there are only a few actresses who can do this. So, the petty and jealous can bring their obsessive hate (the delusional rants look ridiculous actually) for it will NEVER take away her amazing talent and insight.
Interesting to see two producers from Creation of The Gods on this project. I actually got to see this movie in theaters in the US back in October. Big screen and surround sound made this a phenomenal experience. I’m just so hyped for the future of this drama.
I wont worry about it. Lusi herself prepared for every each of her dramas. For TSOPG she practiced playing 2 instruments,…
This makes a lot of sense. I visited Hollywood w/ a group for a college class. We went to the set of a film and watched a 5 second scene being filmed 10+ times. After it was released, I almost didn’t even recognize the scene we spent HOURS watching them film. The magic of film production.
TBH, there are so many BTS, I’ve decided to scroll through with one eye closed. Part of me still wants to retain the illusion of the drama. Loving the excitement and synergy of fans for the series, though. I’ve never followed one from booting to wrap party before.
Me moving between Love’s Ambition, The Story of Pearl Girl, and her fan page resembles a squirrel in rush hour traffic. Not at all complaining, though. 😊 This means no more drama drought 💃
This series reminds me of watching my mom bake a cake when I was little. The waiting to taste the finished product is going to be agonizing, but it’s going to be well worth it.
I really can’t wait to meet Duan Wu. She seems like such a complex, 3-dimensional character. From watching Zhao Lusi’s dramas, she is one of the best at bringing these interesting characters to life.
There's a leaked kissing scene? 😱😱😱 I need this one!
I don't think there are any leaked kissing scenes, but several scenes with romantic vibes and closeness. We may just get what they showed us in TLB, and I'm okay with that.

You’re welcome 😊 I did like it initially but had SML syndrome so I was hoping that actor would come back in S2. He didn’t, so I stopped wanting to watch.
Does anyone know where to read the novel translation? I have only seen up to 10 episodes translated.
I don't believe this is a finished novel...sort of like a hybrid: an unfinished novel turned into a script. At least, that's my understanding. This sort of reminds me of Jane Austen's unfinished novel, Sanditon. Her work was turned into a tv series. I just hope the writers here do a better job at the ending than the writers did for Sanditon.
