I’m curious too so I went looking, he first appears in Ep.14…. I think the whole Love in Pavillion related arc is from Ep14 to 20…. So it’s probably somewhere there….
Super good, but it’s so difficult to find online…. Even raw without subs. I think one of the reasons it’s good it’s because they made it a Russia-China production, and most of it was shot in Russia itself. So that added a layer of realism… and it’s the first time I’ve seen like significant portion of the script + cast being Russian. It’s basically like 60% Chinese bits and 40% Russian bits… so basically I can’t understand 40% of it without subs…
I was totally stunned by the final case…. I wonder if it is based on a real case, I actually think it might…
Yes, I just came across it, I think the producers singled out the first case and relabelled it ‘documentary’ with 6 episodes…. It’s available on some Mainland platforms…
Mainland productions are improving exponentially in these type of genres in the recent years… it’s part of educating and informing the society too I spse…. It’s a more direct and effective approach… Hurm, but I do think there are definitely aspects that differ in reality, many incidents are likely covered up… I came across the below when looking into all these juvenile ‘re-education’ centres.
My jaw just dropped. What a sick, deprave, disgusting and morally corrupt human. 🤢💩👹We need a second…
I was totally stunned by the final case…. I wonder if it is based on a real case, I actually think it might be because they backdated it to 2015…. I mean rape of minors/statutory rape happens in a lot of countries and it tends to go on for many years undiscovered esp in Asian countries… i.e a S.Korean film, Silenced, that is based on an actual case but I dare not watch it, it sounds so painful….
but the way they presented the final case here, esp the plot and the intricate details, I don’t know…. I find it so creepy and like it’s actually so disturbing if it really happened…. I think it’s also because subconsciously I know this can totally happen in Mainland… the country itself is so big, way too big a population, too many states, all with different level of progress and development… But rape is a very unique crime….. because the act in itself is very difficult to prove and even the legal definition of rape differs by countries…
Side note: Vengo Gao’s “sauna walking-around-chicken” was super hilarious… I lol-ed. 🤣🤣🤣
Just watched it. They must have messed up the schedule.
They did. I think wot they were trying to go for was by cases… then they probably changed their minds because people might forget… so then they made the schedule stop in between cases…. to maintain the hype/curiosity….
I work in the insurance sector, and I have for a long time…. And I’m learning so much technical stuff from this drama… kudos to Cdramas progressing and developing their modern Cdramas over the past 5 yrs….
If you follow CDrama or movies you'll know it will pass censorship if they make sure all criminals get their punishment…
There are corrupt cops in Cdramas?? Which ones? I can’t believe they actually pass censorship.
It might be true because I don’t usually like crime genre Cdramas, the flow towards the ending is too formulaic…. Although some of the Light On series is pretty good…

Yeap. They usually always get caught or they die.
BUT I don’t remember watching any Cdramas whereby there are corrupt cops though… They tried to minimise this one with the ex-cop and there are no corrupt active duty cops… but still, I’m surprised they let it pass.
I did notice the slightly relaxed censorship recently with The Glory… I think they allowed that plot because it was a historical drama, but I’m equally surprised they allowed children to take revenge on their parents….. they changed the ending of All is Well drastically for the same reason…

amazing co-production, glad they paired it with a healthy budget and solid cinematography…
Of course a seasoned cast, well executed and logical plot is a given…
Per MDL’s gauge this should be closer to a 8.5 if it was subbed.
Wish this would get subbed.

Sun Li is Shanghainese though, I meant I suspected it because of the show and Google-ed, it’s stated in her Chinese Wikipedia page.
