I know MJTY was not a cast he’d typically use in the past so some people felt the dieting/ thinness was a way of getting them to conform with his aesthetics/ “best
appearance” tagline. But this cast seems to suit his aesthetics so it doesn’t seem necessary.

So it’s the clothing? I know about the “10 pounds added by the camera” rule but he’s definitely shot stuff with stars without such severe dieting before and the shots looked good so I wondered what caused the change.
I feel like I heard something about water restriction for a few hrs/days for his last movie so the muscles stood out more but that’s normal for filmmaking in general.

Yeah, I saw. She lost a lot of weight. I wonder what made him change to this tactic…

I know he’s told his cast to go on a diet before but is he just suggesting it like in the past or is he really giving ultimatums/ restricting cast meals? MJTY rumors made it seem like cast catering was being controlled.

I don’t understand the diet thing. Everyone looked pretty thin when it started and most of the cast can control their weight looking at past roles…is it part of the plot or something? And, when did GJM’s putting the cast on a diet thing start? I don’t remember him doing it when he did movies and I don’t remember him doing it when he did Actors, Please Take Your Place. Did it start during MJTY?

I can understand the pickiness. I only watch dramas for certain stars now but for those stars, I give 100% support if I can. I wasn’t originally interested in this drama but because someone I like is a cameo, I will definitely contribute a membership and some likes and views.

Yes, this is the only way. That’s why even though I don’t care for fan culture, I participate in it so the stars I like can get their shine. I hope when this show airs, it will get the support it needs such as legitimate viewing or giving social media likes or retweets etc.

Well, A League of Noblemen is not GJM so he has branched out. It’s also possible that due to GJM’s own circumstances that WD’s ability to get work has also been affected. GJM only really came back last year or so.

But this assumes the ability to branch out into a new role. My point is that even this point should be evaluated more gently because some don’t get the opportunity at all. It’s really not as simple as a star wants a role and they can get it. A lot of actors want to branch out but the current environment in C-ent does not make it easy. Sometimes to get a different type of role, a star has to take on a job that is “beneath” them which can affect their ability to get roles in the future. This is also why it’s important not to look down on cameos and guest appearances. This is sometimes the only way for stars to branch out but if too much negative opinion builds on it, then this route might close too.

Tbh, the concept of typecasting in the early stages of C-ent star’s career should be evaluated more gently. In C-ent, stars are “typecast” from their first successful role. They will get a lot of similar scripts. And for some stars, these may be the only scripts they get. Some fans/teams also advise stars to build popularity through similar roles first and then branch out once their base is secure.

I think he’s even in GJM’s last movie. His debut was also a GJM drama (I think) called Bloody Romance. He plays the 2ML.

CDL actually has innocent heroine looks and the initial charm of YBC was that she looked pure and harmless but did evil (I didn’t watch the show but lord knows I watched her promo vid so many times😅). This show should be an interesting challenge for her. She hasn’t been the heroine in a while but she’s been honing her skills and GJM can coach newbies to a certain extent.

Honestly, foreign audiences complain about BE but BE is a sure fire way to be popular. Most of the top Cdramas are BE. If this drama is intending to be a hit maker like it seems, this is a smart strategy and those pairings who feel really tragic might come out on top.

If I remember right, Wang Duo has been under GJM for years hence why he features in many of his works.

The CGI of young Jackie Chan is pretty amazing🥳 Check out his New Year’s greetings:

Yes, it’s really different from the last team. Seems more capable in content creation. Now there’s more posts and videos and live pictures and the quality has been good.

Haha I felt sorry for her too. I think a sip or two would have been fine. Foreign fans are all doting fans tho. 😂

Maybe she will start later this year. I think she’s been busy filming and dealing with the transition of a new team and company.

Lmao, they told her not to drink the milk tea and she actually put it back. Flower fans are indeed the strictest😅
