I wasn’t singling the actor out. I was actually saying that blaming him isn’t right because he doesn’t make the final decision on what to do. But I still seriously doubt that the UN’s best plan is going to be crappy blackface makeup.
But I heard that this movie is based on true story and real events, means that in reality UN police used this…
^^^This. I really can’t believe the UN with several continents worth of resources and in a continent full of black people could not find a single black person to be an informant. If it’s true the UN police used this method, it’s still really hard to believe…

Tbh, this movie is actually really disrespectful to the peacekeepers. As you said they went there to save people. This movie was supposed to depict that but now the blackface will be the focus, not the actual mission. Even the poster feels disrespectful because it’s a shot more related to a scene from a zombie or horror movie than something as serious as a UN mission. It doesn’t show the dignity of either side nor what the core of these missions are about,which is to stabilise the situation/help the affected population. If I were a fan of the actor, rather than the commentators, I would question the showrunners who okayed something so unrealistic and controversial as this. They usually have the most power. Actors don’t always get a say sometimes and can end up doing things they’re not actually comfortable doing.
Someone give sis a new DP. She has had such nice ones out now
Check the 28042024 Reuters pics. I dunno how someone so delicate looking so perfectly pulls off handsome, boyish, and cute but she really ate the look and left not a single crumb. Even an ant would starve 😭
Xiao Ran in uniform! Today is also a day for dream girls😂 Who knew she could somehow pull off handsome, dashing, and cute all at the same time. 🥹: https://m.weibo.cn/detail/5028215683025953
They were really sleeping on her and this show but it seems like some are trying to capture her now. She doesn’t…
Yes, I remember her saying that. I think it was while she was waiting for GBMP to air and couldn’t find work. Thank goodness she stayed with it. I don’t care about popularity but I hope she can access all the projects she likes from now on.

Yes! When she hosted on CCTV for one of the galas, I was so proud of her! I always think that she’ll probably go back to hosting at some point, probably when she’s older.

They were really sleeping on her and this show but it seems like some are trying to capture her now. She doesn’t seem fond of paparazzi but her aura has been off the charts in the last few Reuters. My sis is really killing it lately and I love to see it. Palace fight Queen, Warrior Queen, and Gentle Queen- All different feelings but each one is really scoring 100% each time she pops up.
This is my favorite Peng Xiao Ren drama. Pang Hong Mei is her strongest acting role.
I agree, mostly because if you look at her in real life or her previous roles, it doesn’t seem like she can pull off a character like Pang Hongmei but she does. This role is completely different than previous roles and because it is a main theme drama, it has higher requirements for acting and she’s playing opposite some very talented actors. This is probably one of the most talented casts she’s played in besides ToDoI. Her role is really not easy either. She has to play this stiff, somewhat emotionless character at times in a show full of highly expressive characters also. Considering she didn’t go to university for acting, I’m impressed with how far she’s come and the roles she takes on even though she hasn’t had the opportunity to film as much as other actresses her age.
I will have to keep an eye on that drama. I thought they had the best teamwork in this drama, or any drama, to…
I really loved Meisheng while watching this drama. I low key suspect Chang Le Qu’s showrunners were Meisheng fans and used their clout to invite them😂. They play an empress and emperor in Chang Le Qu and the dynamic seems interesting there too. He seems to be a love minded emperor (he looks quite cute) and she rules the court behind the scenes and eventually becomes the Empress Dowager. I don’t know if they get much screen time but I’m looking forward to it.
I agree with you. The drama is very interesting. Liu Xue Yi is great in it, as always, and I wanted an ending…
The show lost 2 episodes and I suspect some of what may have been cut was the romance. That said, the subtle romance storyline is really well done. I think it alone deserves a 10. The show title is basically referring to PHM and tells the story of how JDY met and fell in love with PHM. It’s like the spy war version of How I Met Your Mother😂. Even PHM’s makeup seems to change over time to reflect this. In the beginning when he doesn’t like her, PHM’s makeup is really fierce almost to the point of garish but as he gets to know her, she gets cuter or prettier depending on the situation. In most of the JDY is falling in love with PHM scenes, PHM is almost always super beautiful. And at the end, PHM still has that fierce look but now it’s cuter, has an endearing air.
