I wanna ask something, is the double worth it!?? It's been on my list for soo long but haven't been able to pick…
I loved Kuning Palace (rooting for the bad guy) but I dropped the Double after several attempts. Maybe because I‘m not a very big Wang Xing Yue fan. But it’s definitely worth a try.
I never watched it yet but have been meaning to. So I'm curious. In what way does it remind you of the drama?…
I watched PoB and imo they have nothing in common. Not even the visuals or colour palette. The characters of FL and ML are also completely different. PoB was also a good watch, but I‘m enjoying this here way more.
My one and only gripe - better background score, would have elevated it even more. Examples of shows that really…
That’s my only gripe too. The music is really lacking. For instance Under the Power also had a goofy FL and there were several funny scenes, also other not so serious side characters and the writing was a bit over the place too, yet the entire drama felt serious because of the sad/serious score.
I really like the fact that he could put her in his pocket size-wise, it’s so cute! Usually I don’t care at all about „height difference“ but here it’s so fitting. I wouldn’t want to see a Xenia type FL here. Also her bubbly/goofybehaviour (which is only one side of her and which in part imo she adopted to be more credible as a new recruit ) is fitting: how on earth would there be chemistry between the two if she were as icy and reserved as him? They had to write it like this. Also I don’t see her as being girly- a bit goofy and boyish yes. At those times girls were completely different and being girly didn’t exist in the way it’s understood today. At the end of the day this is a work of fiction, a romance drama foremost. Imo the romance absolutely delivers, FL and ML are both perfect in their roles.
This drama is so enjoyable! The choreography of the fights is superb, the costumes, sets, visuals, colour palette… and the romance 🔥 And some parts are hilarious. People really are too quick criticising.
The drama is very popular but I’ve noticed two main points of criticism in many forums. One is from a section…
I think Cheng Lei is very good looking, also his hands and forearms are handsome. Why would Chinese audiences criticise his appearance? His acting could be more nuanced and show more emotion, but overall I think he’s doing fine for the role. Let’s see how it goes later on when he starts opening up towards FL.
He was getting ready for bed 😄
