Since transmigration dramas in China have a hard time getting approved, I think it probably won’t air until 2026. I’d love to watch it sooner because the story is so good. Maybe they’ll surprise us and release it in December.
I just finished reading the novel. What a beautifully painful story. I loved it. I just hope the script can keep much of its original essence, even if they have to change some parts because of the transmigration ban in China
In terms of depth LOTFG failed miserably SL is much better
Yeah, SL has better world-building and its characters feel more believable for its fantasy genre. What I’m saying is that people keep comparing them when it doesn’t make sense. Their plots have completely different goals
I honestly don’t get why people keep comparing LOTFG and Shadow Love in their reviews. They’re totally different stories, genres, and characters, each with their own context. If superhero-style fantasy isn’t their thing, that’s fine, I get it. But beyond that, it feels like a lot of people are missing the bigger picture of this plot.
I’m surprised the drama is divided into arcs as I didn’t read any comments before starting, so that was unexpected.…
Their story arc really set the bar high for the ones that came after. Cheng Ao is another amazing character from Cheng Lei. His flirting with FL is a solid 10. They basically became each other’s rock
I’ve only got two episodes left and I really liked that mini-drama. Cheng Lei makes every single scene where he’s treating the FL’s wounds feel super sensual. In this one, in LOTFG, and in Shadow Love. The tension is just so good
I saw him in the Republican drama and really liked how his character was both clever and charming. And yes, I’d love to see him in a modern drama, where he can take on more complex roles that really bring out his acting talent.
When I asked others they said Cheng Lei's action scenes are good. But what's with this supernatural power he's…
The story’s actually adapted from a fantasy novel, and one of his personalities is basically a Marvel/Sony-style superhero with a Chinese twist. And as long as Jin’an has amnesia, his fights are gonna be like that.
I just finished all 10 episodes of the first arc, and I totally binged them. I started it because of Cheng Lei, and I absolutely loved his performance as Cheng Ao. He’s a true gentleman in every sense. I adored those little smiles of admiration he gave the FL. Their relationship was just so beautiful, set against a society on the edge of both internal and external war. And I have to say, Cheng Lei is like fine wine in that formal suit. It fits him perfectly
