As usual, I will recommend The Legend of the Phoenix. He sadly is dubbed in this one, but his acting is soooo…
I know as a Jeremy fan I shouldn’t say this, but my honest opinion is, don’t watch it. It’s bad. The FL thinks pouting is acting, the plot goes around in circles, there are annoying characters everywhere and the make-up looks like a clown-fest. Not even Jeremy could save this one as he didn’t get to show any emotions (his character is a stiff upper lip guy) or do anything other than wave his arms in the air. The ending sucks big time as well.
On the contrary. I think it would be a great advertisement for China to show the rest of the world that it is taking environmental protection seriously. Even if there are foreign companies shown, this is absolutely no reason for any country to feel offended. After all, there are criminal people/companies in any country of this world. Hollywood never seems to have any such qualms when all their villains have British accents 😂
I loved how the plots thickens and the mystery behind the latest frame-job is revealed step by step. Absolutely no time was wasted on silly fillers in these two episodes. There were three distinct highlights in these episodes: Xu Yiqing upwards managing Su Heng was beautifully done. The look on his face when he finally sees the light was priceless. Father Shen Wenqi is such a wonderfully calm voice of reason that sets a nice counterpoint to his opinionated eldest daughter. The actor has such a screen presence that it is an absolute joy to watch. I absolutely loved Jeremy’s acting in these two episodes. He is starting to use his face a lot more than in some of his previous dramas, like Royal Rumours. Yes, it gives away his age, but it conveys so much more emotion than we normally get to see from MLs just desperately rolling their eyes.
The next historical drama I am watching is " The legend of Scheng li" but I'll try to stay away from their comment…
I don’t think I’ve ever seen the guy in anything. Maybe he is a good actor, but his looks are just wrong. I was planning to give this a try nonetheless, but already when I watched the trailer I felt my toenails curl up at the sight of these clonky eyebrows… brrrh 😵💫
What is the next drama we are invading? Seems most of us are into the same dramas.
I’ll be bravely heading off towards watching “Flame” once it comes out so that I can tell you which episodes are worth watching for Jeremy’s guest appearance. Until the I’ll probably keep myself entertained with some short-length dramas or rewatching some old Jeremy dramas.

I don’t hate any of them and I honestly can’t be bothered with their private lives, but I think the ML was totally miscast and doesn’t fit the role at all.
After seeing Jeremy Tsui here, he is interesting for me to check his past works😘.. now watching Royal Rumours…
As usual, I will recommend The Legend of the Phoenix. He sadly is dubbed in this one, but his acting is soooo good and there is plenty of drama with one of the most annoying emperors I have ever seen. Towards the end the falls a bit apart, but that battle scene in the last episode was out of this world and really worth him getting all those heatstrokes filming it.
The Legend of Shenli for one👀 I am watching a few mini dramas atm too which are quite funny. I had this + 2…
I watched the trailer and might give it a try because I liked the story but I don’t think that I can bear the ML. Absolutely nothing about him says ethereal beauty of an ancient god and these looks were an important point in the novel.
In defense of the FL, I have to write this ....The actress voice and appearance can be misleading. The Fl’s…
Yeah, people nowadays tend to be shallow and in need of instant gratification. So dramas with a slow burn romance or a mystery that isn’t resolved until the last episode don’t seem to fare well. Like this one reviewer, dropping the drama at ep. 18 which would be perfectly fine if s/he didn’t like it, but then complaining that the mastermind was never revealed 🤣🤣🤣. I mean, seriously?
19-20 tomorrow. Then two more episodes on Wednesday and two on Thursday.
Yeah, I think they’re damaging their own product with these scheduling politics. Once the momentum is gone, people just wander off… Not everyone can or wants to buy their express package. Luckily I was born with a lot of patience, so I’m looking forward to tonight.
I dropped this 3 days ago but I finished watching White Cat Legend which is pretty good; currently watching Eternal…
I just couldn’t stand the idiotic SML and all the stereotypical dumbwits in White Cat Legend. Too much slapstick and screaming about for my taste. I’ve just saw that Above the Rivers drops tonight after being on ice for nearly two years. Even though I normally don’t watch modern dramas I will give this a try for avenge and to see how China handles environmental drama. It’s the first of its kind…
I actually think the novel has it well-balanced. There's lots of poignant moments, no needless over-the top love…
Give the scriptwriters some credit. They always manage to slip in a few of their favourite tropes, like misunderstandings, love triangles or evil sisters even if the novel had none of that.
