Luckily, she only has one more drama with them for now. I hope she can work with other platforms in the future. Youku has been sucking her blood for too long without giving her any decent resources in return. I’ve always thought one of Youku’s biggest mistakes was not propping her up during her low period like Tencent propped up ZLS in her early days. Though she doesn’t seem to have a lot of fans on the surface, there are a lot of people who will watch at least an episode or two for her. Give her the proper set-up and I’m sure she would deliver hits.
It was in retaliation for a severe beating. Story wise, harming her wouldn’t make sense for Ji Man’s character,…
Yeah, it was Japan. I didn’t post the country because I was afraid passerby might think I was confusing Japan with China. Was it the whole country or just Tokyo and Kyoto?
If you like Xiao Ran, this drama is pretty great if her styling doesn’t bother you. It’s so funny. I love…
You have to follow her Chinese fans on Weibo when they post clarification posts. Her story really impresses. She left her successful job as a host to be become an actress and fought to stay in acting to prove herself/repay FBB’s kindness. It’s such a shame sometimes, no one expected her to have acting skills and FBB really seemed to have set her up to be a Top 90s xiaohua. Who knows kind of productions she could have starred in if she had the backing.
Damn, Youku must really hate this show for weakening its grip on the Peng Xiao Ran/Xiao Feng/GMP money bag😂. So many anti posts on Weibo trying to pull people back into GMP or trying to trash it with its latest show. It’s really ex-boyfriend texting “how you been?” energy.
I think the comedy effects are overdone. Sometimes their moves are over-the-top. I just bear it cos exaggeration…
Your analogy is perfect!!! 😂😂 Director Ze directs like Ning Yuxuan cooks. Director Ze must not watch the playback seriously at all. Otherwise there’s no way we’d be suffering from some of these shots.

I think it’s the director. He seems to really like big expressions and exaggeration to the point of madness sometimes 😂. Look at the opening scene… such a gorgeous scene, full of such powerful acting, and he throws in that bouncing camera😭😂😭. I think if the whole show was shot by who shot these episodes and episode 9, the complaints would be a bit less.

Oh yeah, I never thought about the spreading aspect😮. I think I remember arson being punishable by death in one point of history in one country because fire could take out the whole town due to wooden buildings. Haha yeah, it’s an idol drama so idol drama logic prevails😂 I think she’s still the servant of the cousin cause Ji Man meets her later.
Wow. just wow! These last 2 episodes got me shooked. Is this still the funny light hearted show I've been watching?…
1+1>2. If I didn’t believe in actors acting with various partners to develop their skills more, I’d really want to see these two pair up again in a more serious drama. I think they’d be perfect for a conspiracy plot.
Coming back to praise the director of the last two episodes again. I think because it’s a comedy with exaggerated expressions or could be the shooting style, but this show sometimes doesn’t feel as “real” as other shows. However, whoever directed and shot the prison scene finally brought it there. Maybe it was because it was a serious scene so the acting skills were easier to be seen but in those few moments Ning Yuxuan and Ji Man really felt like young couple who existed at some point and time.
This show is still in the Top 5 on DataWin and I have to commend it. It’s actually holding its own against dramas airing on multiple platforms while battling a drama airing on the same platform with the same genre but with more well known actors and more elaborate styling.
Yes, I agree she's pretty in any outfit, esp. light yellow & pink. She's still very pretty at every angle even…
Yes, I agree. A lot of people talk about her in red but she looks really good in any pink+pastel combination. SJFY was the same team as Goodbye My Princess so I was looked forward to all the outfits, but then they cut the arc with the best ones and I’m still so angry. Think they could have at least given fans an outfit video if they couldn’t air the whole thing. I loved the court outfits and the armor look was amazing too but the most beautiful look was the wedding announcement green and pink dress. It really took my breath away.
Ok the last scene in the ep. 16 retrieved for everything. The scene was beautiful 😍
Hahahaha. I dunno but seeing this comment made me laugh so much. 16 was really beautiful. I get the feeling there’s different directors. Episode 9 also had this same gorgeous shooting in certain spots and I noticed PXR’s styling is a little better too.
For the mansion thing, I think the ghost money everywhere on the ground is what freaking her out. She prob doesn’t…
I enjoy the art of storytelling and film and tend to leave long comments as well so you’re in good company. Feel free to discuss in any of the comments I leave and I’ll definitely answer. I think the stylist for RR is Fang Sizhe right? I think she did Tian Xiwei’s hit drama too. I just don’t like that thick black eyeliner red/pink shadow anime look she does to female leads. Like maybe I’ve developed weird aesthetics like Xie Ze but I like looking at the face not so much the makeup. This plain style is actually growing on me because I feel like each actress looks unique because little has been done to their features , there’s nothing to confuse. I’m also not into MZY. She’s very beautiful but not the type of face I like to watch. I don’t mind Jeremy Xu but I rarely watch dramas for actors so the actress decides the show for me.
Wen Wan was already vicious. She used Nie Sangyu's hand to stab herself to get Nie Sangyu in trouble. This was…
Perhaps the correct term is penance. She’s going vegetarian and praying for NYX everyday just like Sangyu. I don’t feel sorry for her (other than sad about her backstory) it’s just from a storytelling angle, it’s a bit fascinating to watch the transformation.
Light comedy my butt. Director Ze (I actually think it was an assistant director…these episodes were too well…
This show is definitely way smarter than I thought. Seems like the public embarrassment was a red herring. The murder was definitely the end goal and Wen Wan is probably working with Ling. She stole the pendant when she cleaned Ji Man’s room.
