What I miss the most is his kindness and smarts. He's not stupid here, but he's not super smart either, and more than that, he's just not the uber-kind, sunshine boy who keeps drawing everyone into his orbit...

I really think the problem lies in the writing. Bai Shu's a good actor (I don't know if you've seen him in Love and Redemption, but he does a fantastic job), but Wu Xie doesn't sound or act like himself imo, it's very troubling.

He's my favorite as well! He made me laugh so much in TLT2 (that "Sayonara" scene, I don't think I can ever forget it XDD)

The more of this I watch, the more I realize whoever wrote this had no idea what they were doing. Bai Shu's doing good, but Wu Xie is completely out of character.

Yes, it's difficult to know whether this show is objectively good or bad because they really chose the worst possible timing to release it. It's a bad move for everyone involved, especially the actors, who have to fill big shoes and can't be blamed for falling short when they have this sort of script to work with, and very little experience...

The actors' weibo posts about the mountain seem pretty legit to me.

Probably not, I think they complete postprod and then the shows get shelved until they have an airing date. The staff has to earn a living, they can't be stuck on a single project for three years.

I absolutely agree with you. I think he's been hurt and therefore he's lashing out against all the wrong people, and it doesn't feel right coming from him. It's nothing to do with Bai Shu, though, it's just the way Wu Xie's written. Halfway through episode 2, however, he seems to be over it.

It's on YT as well! I'm not sure if this is official or not but... better than nothing, I guess.

We didn't, this show was filmed three years ago.

Thank you both!

Does anybody know if this is available with subtitles on any of the usual platforms? I don't see it anywhere...

They might later on if it's successful, I guess.

New poster dropped this morning!!

I recommend The Queen of Attack, it's very well done.

Yeah, it's really annoying. The show sounds really good, but it's impossible to enjoy and fully understand with this utter lack of quality in the subtitles.

I'm barely halfway through episode 1 and I'm loving it so far, but the subtitles are atrocious (I know, it's already good that we have any at all). Does anyone know if they'll revise them in the coming days, or will they leave them as is?

Awesome, thanks!

Oh, thank you! Is it subbed?

It's now in the Coming Soon section of iQIYI!!
