19/6/2026 : #天都异闻录 Douyin update : - A compilation of the Tiandu team's cool moments. #TheLegendofTiandu…
Thanks for sharing all the links. It was a joy to read the many comments praising Xu Kai, his dramas, his characters, and his hotness on douyin and weibo!
It's my 7th or 8th time watching this drama and it never gets old .. this is my fav Xu kai drama.
I sometimes/often find myself watching some random drama and think, I'd rather rewatch Moonlit Reunion.
Admittedly, I will FF past some scenes (I've seen enough of rat demon and the overuse of Mei Si and Book Boy), but I keep coming back for Mei Zhuyu and Wu Zhen. ❤️
I especially love each time Mei Zhuyu bests Book Boy, showing us just how truly powerful MZ is.
Not really i thought he was exactly that type of character who was written like the ml and the ml was written…
The ML protected "him" from day one, pretending the female underwear was his, protecting (by then) her in the shower, causing a disturbance in the health checkup line, etc.).
He was a relentless tease, but he was protective, even when he thought his roommate was a guy.
The 2ML had an image to maintain. He wouldn't have done any of these things.
The ML had an amazing character arc, probably the most extensive one in the series, from debauched playboy to exceptional soldier, friend, and significant other.
Actually, Xu Kai has never really done those soft, overly polished modern romances where it’s all about the…
I've never understood why viewers use the term romcom to label series that are heavy on the romance, but light on the "com." Despite the frequent presence of Mei Si, I would never describe Moonlit Reunion as a romcom.
Best Choice Ever is about family. Dealing with the family you have, and discovering your desire to be accepted into one.
Yao Zhiming went from stray cat to being the glue that put Mai Chenghuan's family back together. He could communicate with the mom and even found her "adorable"(!). Xu Xai's character had the most significant journey in the series, even though he was scarcely seen for many, many episodes.
And ... he was the physical comic relief:
A drunken strip tease (plus falling off the cart ... twice). Teasing Huan Huan on the car trip to the mountains. Acting like a fishing god. His reaction to the foot-skin eating fish. Insulted to be called 40 years old. His classic jump scares (e.g., startled by Huan's coughing in the old village). Bravely tending the smoky stove.

And Xu Kai is drop-dead gorgeous.

Huang Song had a notable arc as well.

And we got to hear his authentic laugh (barely)!
Ridiculous
Distorting the success of Eight Hundred is unfanworthy. Sounds like something a blackmarketer would say on Weibo.
Words have meaning.
Saying you would like more Xu Kai rom coms is one thing. Not respecting that he has his own career goals is hard to let pass without a comment.
