I’m terms of quality, acting, and content, Royal Nirvana and Rise of the Phoenixes.

Gotta stay true to the original I’m guessing. But even if they kept Su Changhe’s crush, it’s not a very overt one. It’s more in a few lines he says and a couple things he does. I liked them a lot in the anime though. They’re both really charming characters.

Tom seems to be a troll. It’s best to ignore them.
As for romance, it’s not the focus but there are quite a few couples. It’s also got a strong visual aesthetic like TtEotM.

There’s no pairing. Those BTS scenes involve a part of the plot in which Su Muyu rescues Muyumo.

No. Mu Yumo’s pairing is Tang Lian Yue. In the book and donghua, there’s the suggestion that Su Changhe might have a crush on Muyumo but I believe this line has been eliminated from the drama.

Her eyes are really beautiful and when captured correctly, they really tell a story. It’s a really rare appearance nowadays. It reminds me of old Hollywood actresses.

Directors and editors usually work hand in hand and directors usually have editors they like to work with but this may be different in Cdramas as you said. However even if the editors and editing are company decisions, the raw materials will depend on the director which still has an effect. It’s like even if the chef is the same, higher quality ingredients will usually have a different taste than lower quality ones. This can be seen in both shows wrap-up specials- there’s a difference in quality of shot.

Yeah, it makes sense. Luckily, she already has some experience playing serious roles so it shouldn’t be too hard to transition. There’s Pang Hongmei, Li Binghe, Tian Yu and Qi Muge. I’d also argue Xiao Feng is played as a quite serious role too. It seems serious dramas are really hard to get into but I think if she can stay in the game, opportunities will come. As long as the team is sincere about producing a good work, I think she’ll be able to give a solid performance.

That’s good. It’s a really beautiful photoshoot. It would be good if it could win her a role. I know some people think she should transform to more serious dramas but she’s so beautiful and ethereal and good at acting that I selfishly hope she’ll stay in costume dramas for a bit longer.

If you liked Jun Jiu Ling teasing Zhu Zan that’s kinda what Mu Yumo and Tang Lian Yue are like in the beginning.

The director is different so the effect should be different. The promo videos using the actual drama footage should give a hint of their abilities.

It made #1 in some category right?

I don’t quite understand the name change either. I liked Tales of Dark River but maybe market research said Blood River would be better.

It’s called Blood River now.

PXR isn’t paired with the male lead so I’m not sure romance would give her more screen time. Mu Yumo’s storyline is kinda interesting though because it’s kinda a career line that turns into a romance. It’s a bit cat and mouse so it’s very interesting.

Time will tell everything. I believe those who focus on their craft will only get better over time and both Peng Xiao Ran and Yang Zi have achievements that others can’t touch.

Yeah, I agree. I feel she has a beauty and charm that others don’t have. I also feel like her onscreen presence is becoming more charming over time and her aura is becoming more elegant and powerful, closer to auras of the previous big flowers.
I think media presence for Cdrama stars has a lot to do with marketing and background/resources. The way a star is packaged seems more important than their actual acting ability. There’s also an element of emotional vampirism and control in fanbases which demands a perfect package so “fans don’t have to worry “. Even though they’re actors, the atmosphere feels very similar to idol culture. After following Xiao Ran for several years, I think she has less media presence because she doesn’t really market and she doesn’t cater to the idea of being a perfect package. Her fandom is also on the smaller side and doesn’t seem to have as organised of a structure as others anymore when it comes to promotion.

I was wondering about why the trailer got taken down so suddenly, especially since the BTS trailer didn’t get taken down. If a coordinated attack is true, that’s really awful. It’s already so hard to get up to date and translated content for overseas viewers, I hope this doesn’t mess things up.

I’m hoping one of her dramas starts to air and/or she joins the crew soon. It’s so boring without her posts😭
