Hi, the long list of bans is interesting. Can you give me the source of Article 5 you mentioned? Original text in Chinese is fine. You can DM me if you don't want to put it here. My co-writer and I wrote an article on Brief History on Chinese Dramas in which we mentioned some bans. But the sources are articles in English, not the real NRTA regulations. A while ago, I also wrote an article on Chinese actors and there are some interesting discussion on their dramas that are shelved. So any original regulations as sources is appreciated. Thank you!

I knew it!!!... Jade Hwang did retire, becomes a butcher and now lives in Gangnam...
Note: Only people who watched "Tomorrow" know this.

trailer?

so they're starting releasing Cdramas with Korean actors that were shelved before?

Wow... I can't believe I will see him again. Like him in Chasing Ball.

So Choi Woo Shik will be the murderer??? YAY!!!

Yeah I think I put in Not Interest List after watching Ep 1, not knowing XYL was in it. He looks so different wearing ancient costume. I wish I can see him again...

I will write a CW article for Heroes, but no time to watch it yet, sigh. I hope I can finish it this week...

Thanks! I bet you found my old article on the left of Heroes drama page ;D

What is Xiao Yu Liang up to nowadays? I don't follow him, so I don't know.

I'm glad! Yes it was overlooked at first because there were so many kdramas aired at that time, AND the low rating on MDL for some reasons people already talked about.

which of your article?

I'm just curious: why you dropped the K version? Well, I like the leads. Watched them in Meteor Garden 2018 (though I don't like that version it's draggy). So I may be bias. But their chemistry is great, since they collaborated before. The main plot is the same as the K version, slightly different side stories. Acting wise, you cannot compare Connor Leong with Yoo Seung Ho since YSH is a veteran actor. CL just started in 2018. Robot make up is better in K because Chae Soo Bin looks like a robot, meanwhile Sun Qian looks like a human.

I also have a guess, from the trailer, that ML discovers FL is a fake robot sooner than in K version.

Did you watch the original one?

No, not at all, hahaha, it's a joke... I can't think of CEOs with weird diseases, lol

It's explained in this drama at Ep 10.

Yeah, I really love this show, one of the reasons because of its originality. I mean, a lot of dramas are adaptations from novels or webtoons, so people can guess the story lines and endings. This one is an original script from the screenwriter, so we are completely in the dark about the story, can only guess and hope ;D

Great explanation... probably I should write an article on CEOs with weird diseases, LOL!!!

Most of the time, since his character Bai means 'white'. Only in a certain event BCF will wear red:

Not judging the drama, it's common on MDL people are pissed off because there are not subs then give bad ratings. You will see a lot in C, J, Th dramas. Now you know why in general dramas from these countries are rated lower than Kdramas that mostly are subbed.

In my CW article, a reader informed me about the issues on PHJ. I quoted for you, credited @Carmela Kang. I hope this clarifies:

"The issue of park Hae Jin :

1st , 2010 he was exempted from mandatory military because he was suffering from depression ... He was scolded by the knetz because it feels like he was on special treatment ..

2nd, he was involve on Cheese in the Trap scandal because he stand in the side of Writer Soonki because of webtoon distortion...

3rd, the issue of 4 men ...the production team spread rumour about him so he can't withdraw from the production of drama...."

By watching the trailer, I think it's supposed to be that way, she's discovered sooner than the one in K version. Besides, in this version SFL knows about Friday sooner too, and so is his other childhood friend who tells ML about the fake Friday.

I think this will make this drama a bit unpredictable, not the outcome but the details of the story line. Plus side couples are different too. So for me it's quite interesting because we won't be given the exact cookie cutter story of the original version.

I actually prefer that she's discovered sooner. If you see the episode when she's cleaning the deck with one of the scientists, she looks so happy and laughing because she's free and acts herself. ML sees that scene and feels jealous. He himself is so controlling and bossy at her. Although she's supposedly a robot, but ML treating FL as an object is not popular in the dramaland. I think I rather see a romance where the couple is not pretending as someone else. My guess is, from the trailer, after the childhood friend tells ML who the fake Friday is, he confronts her and collapses from severe allergic reaction. But once he's treated, because he falls for her already so he misses her, he will chase after her. In the K version, ML look for FL not after she's discovered as a fake Aji, but because she is Aji look-alike.
