Ahahaha?! 7 kids, all those wives and concubines, he could have them all in a single year... I didn't read the novels though, was not expecting such a twist lol
I've only seen the Donghua version, but the character is a bit silly at the start. Partly it's because he didn't really process the whole "transmigration" thing yet at first. And for a while he thinks he is just in a dream so he just does daft things.
The donghua is much shorter, maybe you'd like the pacing better? It's on viki.
The novel is very heavy themes, frankly it would be pretty hard to adapt even without any censorship. Many Non-con type scenes throughout. The novel is not bad although the relationship is quite rushed.
We need international productions to buy that content...
If I had the money I'd open a studio here in Australia to just release it all... Focus on dangai and similar works. We have a lot of Chinese immigration here too so there'd be a good customer base already!
Hahaha they turned ML and MC into brothers for censorship? It reminds me of Sailor Moon where they turned Neptune and Uranus into cousins to hide the lesbian relationship lol
I was just scrolling through and spotted this on a review: "responsible perspective of those heavy themes"
How ignorant! Honestly, saying such things is rather offensive, because this type of moralistic hand-wringing is why we all must suffer under draconian censorship laws in the first place.
"Oh, only show X theme in a certain way or it's bad"... It's easy to say that for things you dislike, but people must also realize this can, and will be applied to things they like as well. Censorship does not pick and choose. It is a blanket hammer to everything. The best choice is for full creative freedom in the world of fiction.
As for the show itself. I quite like that this novel (and thus the adaptation) does not shy away from the darker themes! It is refreshing to see these themes not shown only as "sad solemn and shameful" type things either. There are many different ways to portray such scenes without being boring and pure, and they clearly succeeded in doing so here. Good work.
I hope that more novels will be adapted through international co-productions such as this. It's a promising future for the Danmei genre.
Can you please tell me the name of the novel it's based on ?
What I'm saying is that the novel the person above linked was a totally different story that is not related to this one. The characters and entire plot was different.

I looked at this novel, that is a different novel.
For example, it is transmigration, but the disciple was experimented on by the original, and the MC was then repeatedly killed in revenge. It seems like a time loop scenario. Still fun, though.
I read both novel and watched SVSSS and I agreed lol
It seems there are a lot of references to MXTX works For example, the cliff scene and the rabbit seem to reference MDZS, plus, ML haunting MC's dreams is like SVSSS. Later on, ML also wears a mask like WWX.
I hope the girl Charim gets more screen time. We barely see her when she is one of the leads. Alhough she seems…
In real life it's common for siblings to resent one that has a disability because they take all all the attention from the parent/s. You can see it too, clearly, Da Rim is the favored child, maybe because she had been losing her sight.
- Since I usually add titles whenever I stumble upon something I can't really tell you how long it took me (and…
Ah, that makes it easier too. I meant that you could make a Google Doc with the clickable links inside, make it look pretty and easy to find each year, country etc... Though sharing a folder would be pretty easy as well.
So really it is a Thai-Chinese co-production, not a Chinese one.
I think we should be careful to promote it this way, because it could get too much attention online and then the censorship overlords will find another way of blocking it.
Maybe it's paranoia but also AO3 got so much bad attention and banned in China because of people reporting it. Unfortunately.

I guess it's not bad for a short-form drama, though. Decent costuming, nice enough nusic.
Each episode is around 5 minutes or so in length, and there are 25. The entire thing takes 1:30 to watch.
For example, the cliff scene and the rabbit seem to reference MDZS, plus, ML haunting MC's dreams is like SVSSS. Later on, ML also wears a mask like WWX.
All the best!
