I just finished watching this drama and I’m really unsure what to think about it. I really enjoyed it for the…
Well, the marriage between Song Han and Miao Ansu played a big part in the novel as well.
1. Kong Xueer is the 2FL. So of course she gets a lot of screentime. Plus she is Dou Zhao’s best friend, while Song Han is Song Mo's brother.
2. In the novel, Miao Ansu asks Dou Zhak and cooperates with her to help her divorce Song Han.
3. Song Han is one of the major villains who works with the final, so he is heavily involved in the later half of the story.
4. Chen Jia and the cousin (in the drama) are just sub sub sub sub characters that are insignificant to the plot. But in the novel, Chen Jia and Song Mo's sister played a huge part to the plot, and Chen Jia became Song Mo's one of the most trusted subordinates and brother in law.
5. Fact is, in the drama Wu Shan has too much screentime. In the novel he barely exists.
Usually, when i start a cdrama i find the first episode fun to watch and as the episodes continue i lose interest,…
On the contrary with your opinions, the director was pleased with Meng Ziyi. He kept praising her acting and that she need not much direction. But he had to spent a lot of efforts to direct and teach Li Yunrui, to make him more intimidating and ruthless as a general.
Cnetz (passersby) also praised Meng Ziyi's acting. This doesn't come from her fans, but cnetz. Even when TPG failed, cnetz didn't blast her acting. Instead they felt pity for her for getting a trashy script that even her and Liu Xueyi's acting couldn't save the drama.
Meng Ziyi doesn't act with big expressions, but focuses on showing emotions through her eyes.
Different actress has different style of acting. Some uses big expressions to show emotions, while some uses their eyes. You see, the actress on Boyfriend on Demand received a lot of hates for having big expressions.
In summary, I think you are not suitable with her acting, but prefer actress with big expressions. Different people have different taste.
Urgh!!! WORST fathers of the year!!! So many unlikable charactersFinally I am watching because of the director…
Li Yunrui had to lose weight to play Song Mo. The reason is, Song Mo works near the emperor. His master told him, working near the emperor must not have too much aura or looking to bulky. He also learned inner fighting skills to prevent his hands to have thick calluses. That's why he has lean body proportions, but enough muscles. The novel describes the reasons in details.
I wanted to like this season, but I can't. The cast are likeable, the friendship (outside) is lovely, but the staff ruined it all.
1. Evil edit. In EVERY dating and survival show, there MUST be evil edit for dramatic and rating purposes. The cast get hate for no reason.
2. Unfair screentime. The PD promised for fair screentime, but what? It is the same cast getting screentime, while Yejin and Haeun barely got a minute in one episode.
3. Awful editing. The PD just edited what she wanted to show us: nonsense. There is no story or romance. Only drama, drama, drama. Viewers didn't get to see the behind story of Heesun and Subeen, Haeun pursuing Jaejin, Goeun rejected Hyunwoo, Sungmin's being the big brother to the girls, Yejin being the comfort zone for Minji.
4. No friendship shown. The friendship is really strong, but the PD showed none of it! It is always the same drama and the same PD pick.
5. Haters and delulu fans. Some viewers turned into haters and delusional people who pushed their hatred and anger to some cast. Accusations, malicious comments, even making their own fanfics to deny the results.
I couldn't enjoy and like this season. Both Transit Love and Single's Inferno are ruined by the PDs. For real, for dating shows, China wins by a million!🤧
Two couples are still dating (check photos) ❤️One couple didn't work out.One couple didn't end up together…
Basically the couples are formed from ep 3, except for 1 love triangle. There is also catfish-catfish couple. Total there are 3 couples, but only 2 still dating (check the gallery above).
Also it’s kinda funny that they keep mentioning that Shen Miao is beautiful but not a peerless beauty Meng Ziyi…
Indeed. The novel keeps describing Shen Miao as: cute, innocent. Then the 16 y.o Shen Miao as: not a peerless beauty, but she indeed became more beautiful. It is her aura and how she brings herself makes her look stunning. It is said multiple times that Shen Yue is actually the most beautiful among 4 Shen daughters.
Well "Meng Ziyi is a stunning beauty. How do they plan to top her visual?" Then comes Kong Xueer as Shen Yue. I thought "Oh yes, that really works!"
They sealed it with a kiss! 🥰 Oh how much I love this season ❤️
The reasons why I love and prefer the chinese dating shows: 1. NO EVIL EDIT! I noticed this since I watched idol survival show, they don't evil edit someone. Everything just flows.
2. Fair screentime Everyone gets screentime. Even the ones who don't have loveline don't get sidelined like a furniture. There is no "2 minutes screentime in 3 episodes" as consolation for them.
3. Friendship! They always give screentime for friendship build between the cast. Just seeing them being silly, teasing e/o, supporting this and that couples, playing games make me happy.
4. No mislead There is no "A and B are so much in love!" plot, but suddenly A chooses C and viewers are confused bcos the staff don't show anything about A and C.
5. Full romance! All those sweet dates, romantic words, hand in hand, hug, kiss. These Chinese people don't hesitate with skinship and showing their feelings. You can't help but giggling and smiling wide.
I'm with you!!!!I hate XJX. I think his character is petty. He always intrudes into her BED chambers at night.…
Really, I was praying that Meng Ziyi won't take this drama bcos it is too similar with Blossoms of Power, but...
If Meng Ziyi isn't in those two dramas, I won't even bother to check 🥲
I skipped reading the whole Malicious Empress novel. I stopped at around chapter 180 and jumped to the last chapters to know the ending and the extra chapter about Feng Anning and Shen Qiu. That's all.
Seems like the other 2 novel by Qian Shan Cha Ke are better than Rebirth of Malicious Empress.
I'm with you!!!!I hate XJX. I think his character is petty. He always intrudes into her BED chambers at night.…
Well we are one of the kinds. 99% people who read the novel love XJX, but I don't. I don’t feel sympathy with this kind of ML and will never like him.
There is another novel/drama with the EXACT SAME kind of ML. It is Blossoms of Power (Meng Ziyi, He Yu). I read that novel first. Around chapter 300 I got to know more about the ML and I felt disgusted. The more I read the novel, the more I felt tired with him.
So when I read Rebirth of Malicious Empress novel, I was shocked by the exact similarities, especially with the ML. As if they are duplicates! 💀
Can someone please fix the cast list? Someone submitted it wrong and didn't follow the official one.
First, it is WEI SHU, no Feng Shu. Wei Shu is NOT the main role. Second, Quan Yilun is NEXT after Wu Hankun.
Here's the official cast: Wu Hankun as Yang Si Quan Yilun as Liu Wen Ji Li Xiaoqian as Wei Shu Shen Jiayu as Chun Hua Yu Ailei as Yu Cheng An Myolie Wu as Mu Ning Shuang Tang Xiaotian as Meng Zaishi Xu Haiqiao as Crown Prince Mu Xun
Yan Zidong as Feng Xianyu Bai Bingke as Zhao Ling Fei Wu Bi as Mu Wu Zhang Yue as Liang Ling Yi Wang Zi Rui as Wei Qiao (Wei Shu's brother) Li Jiaxin as Liu Ruo Zhu Liu Jun as Emperor Mu Yu Gong Lei as Yan Zhanzhi (Yan Shang’s father) Huang Shengchi as Yu Xian Di Shao Baoliang as Zhang Ren Jing Hou Changrong as Liu Xiang (prime minister Liu) Peng Yang as Empress Li Ying Ding Jiawen as Lin Dao Yang Zihua as Li Zhi Cui Zhigang as Zheng Xing Zhang Shulun as Fang Tong He Ziyi as Yu Niang Ji Lingchen as Yan Da Lang Pei Jiaxin as Yan Xiao Zhou Ding Zien as Cai Lian An Junqi as An Shahe Qu Zhihan as Lu Ling Gao Shuguang as Liu Lan Xu Ding as Tan Yuanchun Shao Feng as Meng Baiyu Zhang Yue as Princess Consort Jing
I hate Xie Jingxing’s his so noisy and always into shen miao business his everywhere his so annoying this is…
I'm with you!!!! I hate XJX. I think his character is petty. He always intrudes into her BED chambers at night. He steals her personal letters from Pei Lang. Orders people to stalk her. Deliberately shows his jealousy to make other men jealous of him. Names his pet with HER name. Tbh until the end I can't feel his charm at all. 😓
I don't hate him at all. I feel frustrated seeing him. He could see it. He could feel it. And after everything, he still refused to believe she likes another man and keeps on being her servant, begging for affection. 🥱 He tried too hard to the point it became a one man show.
Meanwhile Jiayi got busted when they announced she voted 3 for Xuan Cheng. She looked guilty, didn't dare to look at Yanting. She was like "oops...why did they have to announce it?" While Yanting was like "what??? It wasn't me?? How??? Why did she give him 3 votes?"
They actually 💋?!!!! These chinese people don't hesitate at all!!
4 couples in this show are so busy flirting and giving sweets!!!
Damn Chinese dating shows are WAY BETTER than korean ones! Chinese really focus on the romance, romance, romance, friendship and comedy, while Korean ones focus on drama, drama, drama, evil edit.

There. I said it.
I don't hate him at all. I feel frustrated seeing him.
He could see it. He could feel it. And after everything, he still refused to believe she likes another man and keeps on being her servant, begging for affection. 🥱
He tried too hard to the point it became a one man show.
