Yes! Hopefully a good script and production.

Yes absolutely! I‘m so looking forward to his movies and new projects!

I loved The Demon Hunter’s Romance, for the main couple, for the side characters, for the philosophical questions/themes … it’s undoubtedly the better drama compared to UtP and yet I don’t feel the urge to rewatch it, but I love rewatching UtP. The dynamics/chemistry between the leads is just so addictive and I love RJL‘s performance here so much. I also rewatch Love of Nirvana sometimes, his performance there is also outstanding, but UtP is more of a comfort watch and I just love Lu Yi. He’s one of my favourite characters ever. And I love how in this drama you can laugh about a comedy element and next you know it I have to fan myself because his eyes express so much steam when looking at JX. The side characters pretty much remain as they are. Of course their story develops. Liar Lan has a lot of character development, well it was always there but they didn’t show it earlier.

I rewatch L&P every few months 😊
The heir is very good so far, very serious.

He even did steamy kissing scenes in the glory of tang dynasty, there’s a great BTS on YouTube

Have you tried Fate Chooses You? It was a great watch! Quite different for a Xianxia. Little romance but great fighting scenes and addresses deeper themes.
Today airs Yang Zi‘s the Heir. I will try that.

Hi! I remember recommending Love of Nirvana but I forgot what else I recommended 😊
RJL usually chooses very well written scripts and I love his acting!
Under the Power is an older production, so of course the effects are not as good as today’s dramas. But the cases are interesting and the romance and chemistry are on another level. His eyes 😍🔥

I wonder when any of his upcoming movies will be released.

At first I didn’t like the ending. Now I rewatched it and even though I still don’t like that they wrote the story like that I must say it is very well executed. It’s very emotional and beautiful because of Chu Ying. The emotions he expressed on his face, particularly the relief when he saw Xin Mei because he knows she’s good for LQQ and LQQ is everything for him, that was very well done. Beautiful scene.

Ah ok. I found most of the CGI and special effects good. Very few weren’t good imo.

Which ugly effects ?

Agreed 💯! I think what could make him appear „shallow“ to viewers is that he had so little screen time. His story seemed a bit diluted due to that imo.

Yes, I‘d like to look at it the way you pointed everything out. And I‘m sure they’ll find a way of restoring his memory, it’s fantasy after all.

Could you name example dramas that glamourise abusive relationships? The only one that comes to mind seems to be Pursuit of Jade. I remember people raving about the toxic character. It’s a problem when the audience wants to see something like that and the industry takes note.

Technically it’s still him though. I mean it’s still his soul and innate character traits will still be the same. And maybe they’ll find a way to restore his memory some day.
Agree, I liked the drama a lot but not the ending.

Same here 😊

I‘m still undecided on this point. What makes you think he’s gone? The expression RJL had in the last scene also made me think he’s an empty shell but can anyone even exist without a soul?

Huang Yi was great! I‘ve never seen her in anything before but I will definitely watch out for her future roles. Also I think she had great chemistry with Allen.

He‘s rumoured to play the emperor in a serious historical drama. We‘ll see! A serious historical is a good choice and definitely good for his career but I guess it won’t have romance and I love him in romance 🥰

Thank you, I‘ll look into it!
