I agree. It seems from the trailers she should have some growth. For now, I’ll just enjoy the Chong Zi that steals fish out of the pond.😂

Does anyone else like Chong Zi? I’ve found her kinda endearing so far. I really like spirited heroines.

Seems like more tidbits have been released but none of Jiman. 😔

Really starting to feel like the producers lied to everyone about why they brutalised this show. Just came from the trailer of another show that is airing today where one of the main characters 100% looks gray -as in turns into what looks like a villain - even tries to kill the ML from the looks of it.

BTS footage might be the more correct term😂. The angles, distance, and picture quality don’t look right for broadcasting. Plus I swear, I saw some equipment in one of the first few shots.
If the March premiere rumors are true, maybe we’ll get a trailer.

Just realised these are BTS/Reuters so they may not even be their best shots. Please Director Xie don’t let me down this time, I’m begging you
🙏😭🙏

Lol, this clip is amazing. Haven’t seen a single person say they don’t have chemistry since it came out.😂
Also saw someone using Hot Moonlight from SJFY for the clip. 💀 Might as well get the usage out of it.

They’re really good looking in this clip. I’m going crazy😩😩 Please, please Cent give us more costume dramas with good looking people who can act.

Been watching on repeat. Both of them are giving such serious bedroom eyes.🥹 I remember hearing Ryan Ding had intense machismo but PXR has always been pictured as innocent so her look shocked the heck outta me😂
I hope it keeps this level of chemistry throughout the drama.🙏🙏🙏🙏

Jiman really didn’t come to play😭 They barely put make up on her and have her in mosquito nets but every second of this clip SLAYS.

To Our Dreamland of Ice is pretty high quality. It gets ignored because it’s not in English but it’s top tier. I’d actually argue it’s a better performance than GMP in looks and acting but it’s too short and costume dramas will always have more clout than modern ones.
I actually like SJFY but really wished they hadn’t gutted Yezi’s character with the editing. Otherwise, I think she would have been well liked too because she had so much growth potential. The key with GMP is that the director respects Xiao Feng as a character and thus highlights PXR’s portrayal of such a heartbreaking character. That’s why it’s stayed in so many hearts. With the exception of ToDoI none of her other directors have taken such care.

Finally something that moves!!! These two are way too good looking in this tidbit and way too flirtatious 🥹🥹🥹

I agree. It’s really rare to see as much development as we get to see in Xiao Feng for the type of character trope she is. The steady progression of her going from cheerful, proud, and carefree to depressed, trapped, and burdened was really on another level. It really showed the devastating effects of abuse on a person. It was so powerful that even to this day sometimes my heart aches when I think of what happened to Xiao Feng.
It’s also strange that everyone seems to think that Xiao Feng is the love brain when it’s actually Li Chengyin (directed at the thread’s original comment). She isn’t the one trying to make the relationship work despite what happens between them. She actually knows what she “should” do as the Princess of a subjugated nation who brought the enemy to her home but Li Chengyin stopped her at the River of Forgetfulness, prolonging everything. Considering family honor and the hatred between the countries, what Li Chengyin did was always going to be a dead end between them. Xiao Feng understands this and basically uses Li Chengyin, knowing he loves her best at that moment to secure peace for her country while doing what pride tells her she has to do. What always breaks my heart about the ending is the last scene before she rides in between the two armies, she looks up and takes a deep breath. I’ve always felt she didn’t want to do what she did but felt it was the only way. The girl who was too afraid to drink medicine that tasted bitter grew into a woman who could put a knife to her neck to save her people.

Judging from your profile, it doesn’t seem like this will be a series you will enjoy. Mileage varies but if you still feel like watching, it’s important to watch the Director’s Cut because key scenes were cut from the original that affected some elements of the story.

Happy 4th Anniversary , 东宫!
Hope Maerqima is wandering the grasslands living her best life without Li Chengyin😭Can’t believe this series has been robbing people of tears for 4 whole years😩

Wonder if they’re trying to catch the GMP heat in addition to Valentines?🧐Tomorrow is the 4th anniversary so there will be lots of fans lamenting Xiao Feng about.

Praying we don’t get played again but there’s supposed to be movement tomorrow!!!
🙏🙏🙏🙏A trailer🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

It’s been making the charts lately which is good. It still hasn’t released a trailer yet though and I don’t think it’s been bought by an online platform either.

Got optimism for this show again. Just came from the newest version of Jun Jiu Ling which is directed by the same person. With the fixes, it is really good to chase. Considering this show also has a detective plot, if this show pays attention to editing shots and filters, it will also be really good to chase.

If you like Jun Jiu Ling and can watch it in Chinese, Heilongjiang Television is currently re-airing the show at 7:30pm Beijing Time and it can be streamed live.
This version is the best so far. After changing the filters that ruined the Youku version, the cast looks better and all the micro-expressions can be seen better. It’s really the quality the show should have had. It actually captures the gentle beauty of Jun Jiu Ling making it easy to understand how 4 men fell for her.
