I just read the ML had a scandal and will never act again.Damn. He's so handsome.
I read up on it some more and maybe things aren’t quite as hopeless. He’s not officially on the black list. In January they were still airing the micro-drama Love as a Cure with him. And apparently there’s already another one planned with him.
He doesn't have new dramas ? Was he blacklist? I love this actor. I hope not.
Though maybe it’s not actually that bad, because back in January this year you could still watch Love as a Cure with him. He’s not officially on the banned list, so perhaps it’s just a temporary ban. Hope so.

I checked and unfortunately he ended up on the blacklist 😱 I'm devastated because I love him too. I really hope he'll manage to make a comeback somehow and we'll get to enjoy looking at him again.

Terrible news… He Jianqi was one of my absolute favorites in micro-dramas. Unfortunately, it’s true 😔💔He really did get added to the blacklist. I really hope he can make a comeback someday, since he’s not officially ‘permanently banned’ like some actors after political scandals.
I finished all the episodes. And it remains pretty intense and serious right until the very last one.
Not every love story needs strong chemistry, but in Infinite Cycle of Love it felt essential. Because it was missing, the whole story ended up feeling somewhat flat. I think that kind of perfect connection between leads is mostly independent of acting skills. It either happens naturally or it doesn’t, it just happens on its own. Here the actors performed well individually, but they never fully clicked with each other. Actress Zhao Xi Xi almost always has amazing rapport and real sensual tension with whoever she’s paired with. On the other hand Ren Jia Lun, even though I like him, always seems slightly mismatched with his leading ladies. There’s never quite that spark in his romantic pairings. A necessary disclaimer: where some see chemistry, others see absolutely none. Sinful Marriage on the other hand had everything. If anything was missing, it was probably just more episodes. That drama was close to perfect in every single aspect.

Yeah, I just finished Infinite Cycle of Love. It’s a solid, well-executed drama. It really doesn’t deserve all the hate in the comments. What I missed was more passionate or intense scenes between the main couple. It felt a bit too lukewarm in that department. The final twist was actually really well thought out. The way the whole cycle of coming back to life got so brutally cut off fit perfectly as a conclusion to their love story. Honestly, I kind of liked that slap in the face the writer gave us with this ending. If I’d been more invested in the characters, this ending would’ve probably hurt a lot more.

The ML is my biggest discovery in this drama. I remember him mostly from villain roles. He was always styled in such a way that he looked kind of unattractive and rather dull. But here, with long hair and royal robes, he is insanely handsome and magnetic. That warm, gentle smile of his and those melancholic eyes… That said, credit where credit is due: the actress playing the FL did an excellent job too. It would have been very easy to make her character annoying and insufferable, but she created a truly dignified person who “learned how to fulfill her own wishes”.

Chinese dramas always leave you wanting more at the end. I can’t remember ever being fully satisfied with a finale. Luckily, we at least got some nice kisses and a beautiful love scene earlier on. For me, the strongest part of the show was the main leads. They were absolutely stunning together and the chemistry between them was electric. All in all, a really great drama. Quick tip: As for the subtitles, you can download the free Copyfish program, it does a pretty decent job with Chinese subs. The downside is that you basically have to manually crop/screenshot the lines to translate them, so watching a 15-minute episode takes way longer. Still, you can always just translate the most important lines and skip the rest.
I found the theme song from Infinite Cycle of Love. Looks like there weren’t any more tracks besides that one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTn-e8yZXLM&list=RDwTn-e8yZXLM&start_radio=1
