Not very. The synopsis is based on the novel, but they changed quite a few things… For instance there no longer is a younger brother and it’s the elder sister who successfully runs a cosmetics shop. And of course as the squeaky clean ML of a C-drama Lu Yan can no longer lure her into an affair and set her up as his mistress either 😂 He is now offering her shelter in a very platonic way.
Only a few people who supposedly dropped it (or never even watched) rated so far and some weren’t ashamed to…
So true! I think she could even give crypt keepers nightmares…. For me the two prime examples of how and how not to age are the great French divas Catherine Deneuve and Jeanne Moreau. One started looking like a distorted copy of herself, the other one aged gracefully.
Ditto! Maybe we should start a petition on change.org…😂
I don’t know how to get in there… if you find out let me know. I don’t understand Chinese, so for me it will just be the pleasant sound of a voice that is missing in this show 😂

Not true. There are quite a few high profile western actors who haven’t messed with their faces. People like Virgo Mortensen or Diana Rigg spring to mind, but there are many more. I think there is a lot more tolerance towards actors naturally having facial lines and the so-called character actors are allowed to age.
From what I see they changed quite a few things, so I don’t think it will help with watching the show, but if you like to read I can recommended it. It is very well written and the translation of the first 51 chapters is first class. You can see the details under “recent discussions”.

Yes, that’s what I meant to say. On him the effect of fillers is minimal as he can still “use” his face the way an actor should. I’m getting the impression this filler-craze is only getting worse in some of the younger actors and it is affecting their performance. I find this really sad. I don’t think he’s that particularly thin, he packs quite a bit of muscle (which we will hopefully get to see at some stage in the drama… 😜) but he is very tall so everything looks slim on him.
No, that first trailer with the slapstick was a clear misrepresentation. So far there have been no misplaced attempts…
He coerced her into becoming his mistress because of her family’s misfortune and a huge debt for which she would have had to sell herself to the moneylender. She didn’t want to be with him in the first place and he didn’t treat her all that well either.

They ALL had stuff injected into their faces, but at least, unlike many others, he can still move his face. There is a reason why I keep complaining about the ageism. I hate it that actors/actresses feel obliged to do this to themselves to have a career.

It’s quite different from KP, I wouldn’t even call it rebirth. He doesn’t die and then “snap” he’s back three years before the event. Here he only has some strange dreams and it takes him a while to work out that what he sees may be from a past life. He only sees bits and pieces and he has no awareness of his former self. There are many things that he doesn’t know or understands so he has a mystery to solve both in the present and regarding his “past”.
