It’s true it’s easier said than done. My words are a joke running amongst his domestic fans. They all joke he should focus on his career and call him a love brain. It’s very cute especially when there are shots of Yi Wuyou looking like a puppy around Yezi😂.
I’m not surprised if the guard also has a crush on Yezi. This series seems to be a shipfest but I’m here for it lol

Yi Wuyou,
Such a good little bird. Forget the heartache of love. 😭😭😭 It’s okay to just focus on your career.😭😭😭

I feel like I wouldn’t dislike her reviews so much if they weren’t held up as some sort of legitimate rating system by the foreign Cdrama watching community. It’s a bit annoying to see people swoop down with her half-baked reviews to trash dramas. It seems unfair, especially if she presents herself as an authority but then doesn’t do the homework outside of her niche fields. If you say you’re going to judge on the quality, or promote quality dramas, then please also have quality in the work you present.
Her reviews are also a bit unfair because the foreign Cdrama community hasn’t really developed the complaining video culture of domestic Cdramas so some fans take the reviews to heart, especially the young/new ones and it kills enthusiasm for Cdramas or gives the impression that a lot of the ones more accessible to newcomers are all bad when it’s really a case of different audiences.

The reviews when I stopped were too cynical. Her tastes are very specific and based off someone who has and does watch a lot of dramas so her reviews can be a downer, especially for newcomers to Cdramas who are generally more open to watching lots of different things.
I think the historical accuracy comments would be fine if she could figure out a way to discuss them neutrally because they are interesting but she just uses them to bludgeon dramas to death.

A lot of stuff from the novel was cut so it’s hard to say how it’s going to end.

My first Cdrama was about girls switched at birth and was wild but my second was Ashes of Love and then Eternal Love. I saw Love &Destiny too. I ended up finding one of my favourite Cdramas, GMP, by OST too. I really liked the romantic fantasy that seems to only be present in Cdrama. In fact I watched so much Cdrama in the beginning, I accidentally learned started to learn Chinese. 😂
A few years later and now I pretty much only watch PXR dramas.

Agree. She’s got a lot of knowledge about Chinese history, culture, dress, and production values but outside of that not worth a listen. Her reviews/rants are sloppy. She complains about plot holes but often misses key points and doesn’t make corrections when people call out her mistakes. And she doesn’t understand the universal art of storytelling either.

Omg this pair🥹
The look on the Emperor’s face in Episode 12 when he thought he could splash out on Bai Lu as her reward.😂😂😂And then the disappointment when she made her request.😭😭😭. I’ve watched the scene so many times already.

I love their interactions too. It’s really like a master and a troublesome apprentice and this show is just screaming to me the importance of acting. I’ve never seen a pairing bring that type of relationship to life like these two have.

Even the 55 episode version of GMP had cuts actually. It was originally supposed to be 63 episodes. I’m not sure if we’ll get all the missing material due to its content but we may get a better edit or something depending on how popular the show is. So if people like it, definitely like it on YouTube and comment etc cause even if the foreign market doesn’t matter in Cdramas it might help.

Episode 12 is pure gold. They play so well off each other.
And that joke about being old and not handsome😂😂This show is really getting better with each episode.

The ML is supposed to be in his 40/50s based off the book.

He really did. Tbh, his weave alone deserved an award cause there’s a lot of busted looking wigs walking around in Cdramaland.😩
Ashes of Love was my first too. The 2ML syndrome nearly killed me.😂
I tried Minglan because I heard great things about it but it was a bit too slice of life to keep my interest. I know it’s one of his pivotal roles tho.

Risking another ban to post this interview with Xiao Ran about Xinghe Changming:

Even if you don’t speak Chinese, it’s worth a watch because it shows Xiao Ran’s original lines, her state in raw filming, some scenes that have been cut, and a kiss scene.

I think she spends the night at his house too. If that gets cut, I’ll definitely be sending a complaint to Youku’s customer service😂

I’m so excited for the next couple of episodes. Looks like things are about to kick off. Plus we get to see Peng Xiao Ran in armour.

Yes! That scene! That scene alone gives me faith in the original intentions of this show no matter what it is now. Not sure what was up with the Yebei crew but the acting of most of the Tianqi actors is all on point and he’s the cherry sitting on top.
And I don’t care what the naysayers are saying about the main pairing. I’ve watched pretty much all of PXR’s major roles and I think the opportunity to act alongside FSF has been a blessing. Acting is king and if a young actor wants to be a good actor they should work with good actors because they learn. I’ve even seen some BTS of the crew teaching PXR how to bow properly.

Same! Every male character either gets judged off Ningyi (even his hair game is on 100😩) or Runyu (male character so beautiful he can also wear a wedding veil) depending on type.
Female characters have more range I think but silly white sweet is Xiao Feng, arrogant goddess is Bai Qian, girl posing as boy Feng Zhiwei, ultimate baddie Gong Li’s Bone Spirit Demon.
