People are so starved, the video got a 100,000 plays in an hour without a single hot search😂😭

I was just coming to post this!!!
@Youku, please take notes! This is what the audience wants to see!
Also, I’m not sure why they used a filter. The closeup was absolutely gorgeous.

Continue scrolling down and you’ll find other opinions similar to your own on both leads, hence the plural on detractor.

Well feel free to keep scrolling next time. Don’t need the negativity ✌️

Again, you’re in my comments because…? It’s Free.99 to make a post of your own.
Edit: Qingyun is a competent martial artist. Plus, Tao Siwei doesn’t distance himself because of her personality but because he loves Nie Sangyu only.

And then they’re in your comments like you care😂 It’s tragic af. Like go be negative in your own thread.😂✌️

It’s cool. They’re not into Jiman’s type of character.

It’s an S level project so it’s not cheap and tbh, I think the only place this fails is the director and the costuming. The script is actually quite smart, so smart that I think some of the plot issues might actually be changes made by the director or censorship because that has happened before. And the acting and scenery can’t be faulted at all. But I agree that not everyone has connections or even the right to speak for even some very powerful actors, so it’s a shame for some fans to say a role is a waste.

I think 36 or 37.

I’m another PXR fan that doesn’t understand the DYX hate. I just saw a really rude hot search of him yesterday on Weibo too. I’m also picky about PXR costars and I think he looks good in this show. In Episode 9 in the woodshed he definitely was the picture of a handsome young man. He has very interesting features which I prefer and they match really well with Xiao Ran in this show. And, I also agree that he is the best of out the younger actors Xiao Ran has worked with. He can actually cry and can create a sense of chemistry which so many actors can’t do. He didn’t drop a single scene which can’t be said for some of her other dramas no matter how high the regard.

I went to have a look and I think I’ll give the one with Zhang Yuxi or Esther Yu a chance. I’m actually most interested in the Dali Temple one because he’ll be playing a cat. It makes me wonder what idiosyncrasies he will incorporate into the character to get the cat effect.

I requested JJL this time too😂 Already did SJFY when it came out in hopes they’d get the full version.

The main selling point is that Starry Love is a xianxia though, no need to play coy when that was ultimately its key marketing point. And, I’m not interested in either of those shows✌️I’ve seen clips of both and they’re a no and they’re definitely a no after implying the show I do like is not done well. Like why would I watch a show recommended to me by someone who has come to trash the show I like😂

No role is ever a waste for an actor. It’s such a shame to see fans say that. Even if it’s just to get more exposure, every role is an opportunity, a networking connection, or a chance to break out. Have any of these detractors ever thought of why their fave might be so good? It’s probably specifically because they are always challenging themselves. Sure, not every role will be an Oscar worthy performance but it’s enough to bring the characters to life for the audience.
If this show didn’t air, I would have never have learned about Ding Yuxi’s talent and I definitely wouldn’t have given his future shows a chance. Now because of this, he has the potential to gain a new fan and the same goes for Peng Xiao Ran.
The beauty of the Jinyumantang pairing is that it is a juvenile relationship that grows into a mature one. If the actors or the relationship feels juvenile, then they have succeeded because that is precisely what the show is going for-a young couple in their first serious relationship trying to respect and uplift each other in a relatively healthy way.

I’m not sure why you came all the way down here to respond to my comment after leaving your own review but it’s good to know your genres. Starry Love is xianxia. And it’s also good to know quantifiers. I used the word most, meaning that most and not all romantic comedy Cdramas fall within this range.
For a show that “sucks” so much I don’t understand why people are expending all this energy to convince others that it’s not good😂

I meant to do that. Will do it now. It can definitely compete with some of the romcom Cdramas I’ve seen on Netflix.

Yeah, I think the only thing Chen MinZheng could have played with more is texture, embroidery/beadwork, and color gradation of the layers but they don’t seem to have that talent from what I’ve seen of their portfolio.
BTW, what dramas of DYX can you recommend that have an actress with good looks and acting skills? Or his performance is really good? Except for RoTaR, I’m not too keen on that. I know there have been recommendations but they’ve been lost in the comments.

I complained a lot in the beginning but after watching the show, I really do like Jiman’s overall design. It’s hard to explain Xiao Ran’s looks but she often reminds me of very early film and Hollywood starlets - there’s a ton of beauty and story in their eyes and their overall features are quite delicate and pleasant to look at. I feel that this makeup caught that sense in a way I’ve only ever seen once in SJFY and it was also a “plain” look.
It’s a bit strange for me because before the show aired, I would have agreed about the brocade but after, I feel like an updo or heavier brocades wouldn’t have fit. There seems to be this airiness and lightness to Jiman that I don’t think would be achievable if she was dressed more traditionally; like the brocades would weigh her down, bring a fairy down to earth. The only look I could think of that would give the same flowing effect seems to be for unmarried girls so it would still get scolded😅
Altho after more thought, there’s a look in SJFY when she gets betrothed in front of the court that has a similar effect and it’s heavier materials but the effect is otherworldly. It would have been overkill for this show😅
Below is a link of the look:

Yes.
Yes.
Yes.

Does anyone else find it ironic that Wen Wan gets caned to death? It’s the same punishment she enacted on Ji Man.
