I’m still working on the translation and it will probably still take some time until it’s finished. So far, 7 out of 10 chapters of the first book are done. You can find the link under “Recent discussions” above.

Because it is a ridiculous premise. Most people would struggle to read a text from 200 years ago, yet these people go thousands of years into the past and still know exactly how to speak, how to behave and how everything around them works. It gets even worse when after 5 min from arrival they get to outsmart the ancients because of their “superior knowledge” even though most modern knowledge would be completely useless in ancient times.
Very often the time-travelers are supposedly “modern” women, but instead of struggling with the role of women in the past (most of us probably wouldn’t survive a week without being beaten to death…) they usually fall for some backward buffoon who mistreats them.
Plus recently, far too many dramas are using this lame trope. It’s like the writers have run out of ideas.

😂😂😂 I don’t think he’s spending all that time in the gym for nothing…
If only he was just as diligent about spending time in the recording studio 🙏

Is there anything more annoying than those fan-girls who blindly rave about their idol 😂
He isn’t perfect and not even trying to appear so, for me that is part of his personal charm.

Good CGI is a “nice to have”. Bad CGI cannot ruin a good drama and even brilliant CGI cannot make up for bad writing.
Sometimes people are just too obsessed with technical details…

😂 yes,, I think our boy is a bit lazy when it comes to that. Or he doesn’t love us enough to go the extra mile 🥲🥲🥲

Just a few. Some street-fighting (flash-back to his youth) and a kick-boxing match with Luo Fei.
This isn’t an action-driven drama, so very few action scenes overall, but beautiful atmospheric shots that show his acting qualities.

I wouldn’t mind the reverse harem, but the fact that this is yet another transmigration from modern times story makes this a no-go for me.

At least in this one they didn’t give him clown make-up.

To be honest, I think it’s him who doesn’t want to do it because dubbing is hard and boring work. But so is pumping iron in the gym, so maybe I’m wrong.
In any case, yet another dubbed drama is disappointing 🥲

Here’s the synopsis (as indicated on Douban)
In order to redress the injustice of the former prince, Wei Lin, a rough and illiterate female general, sought Gu Mingzhu, the sick and beautiful prince of the Gu family, in a way that hurt the enemy a thousand and self-harmed eight hundred. Who knew that the sick and weak and beautiful prince was fake, and the sick and delicate villain was true. Jiang Juan pretended to be Gu Mingzhu and married into the general's mansion to use Yan Yu to treat his illness, but he didn't want to accompany her with his heart.

From what Ive read so far, his character reminds me of that in The Autumn Ballad…

I don’t. That was just my conclusion since RJL is the lead and certainly wouldn’t accept having episodes without him centre stage . So the script would have to be quite different from what I’ve read so far and the story will no longer be told from the FL’s perspective.

I see that he is spending a lot of time in the gym at the moment… so you’d better get some support for those weak knees 😍😍😍

I’ve done a machine translation for myself and so far I am on chapter 14. If my interpretation of the events is correct, so far the character played by Allen Ren has made two very brief appearances as “the masked man”.
The rest is the FL bickering with Pei Yan or spending time with Cui Liang. The story is told from her perspective. The reader learns about her thoughts and feelings, but not those of the other characters.

I started reading the novel… it’s quite good so far.
If JT is confirmed for this role it will be gold!

Yes, I feel we’re going to need tissues…

Trailer looks good! This role seems to provide JT with some good opportunities to show his abilities in riding and fighting as well as his acting range.
Hopefully, the FL will be a strong partner.

From what I can gather from the novel it is about martial arts sects being involves in court politics. Lot’s of conspiracies, etc.
The original novel is told from the FL’s perspective. So this is yet another case of manipulating the script to turn the ML into the protagonist.
I hate it when they do that!

It seems that all the good ones are too short (based on the novel, Royal Rumours could easily have had 40 eps.) and the bad ones are too long.
Let’s hope this one will give him some opportunities to shine!
