Yeah I know what you mean about being a workaholic, he was working nonstop and only had a short break in between. I'm glad after story of joy, he got a longer break and he was able to do many things like being on variety show and promotions for his drama during that time. I think xukai has a very good work ethic, and his understanding of the characters he played and talk about making the characters stand out from being generic when it comes to xukai's acting ^^

Does anyone find it ridiculous someone on tli kept commenting to me that alp viewers are the reason tli gotten lower rating or alp viewers are hater of tli, or people who like alp are jealous of tli success and attacking it because they're haters of zls? I was interested in tli that's why I was on that page, but I didn't like how that person on tli is jumping on every comment someone made and call them a hater, I have never seen anyone went that hard on idol worship that she even made comments zls is a better actress than zdy, and the fact she didn't watch alp and made comments that tli is better than alp is laughable.

Was reading a review on viki that complained about the main leads not as smart in the second half, I have to disagree it's not that the main leads are not as smart, it's that they are not cut out for court politics. Both of them are very straightforward and are in the open while the villains are in the dark, compare to them being in their element in the battlefields where they know about strategies and planning court politics are totally different. We should know by now lini doesn't like court politics and that's why he is so against being the crown prince, cuilin has never been to court and only been with her father's army so she's not well versed in court politics. I think drama made it quite clear the reason for their choice in the end since they're much more happier and got exactly what they both wanted ^^

If you stop commenting to me then I won't comment anymore. It was you who talked about hater, so I gave an example of what it means to be a hater. I was referring to when alp just aired, it has lots of haters in china badmouthing it and bashing the actress for not looking pretty enough or the ml is fat etc, none of those things has to do with the drama only the appearances of the main leads. It's a good thing those who love alp didn't listen and watch the drama and realizes how good the drama is, and that's why I don't follow other people's comments because I would be missing out on a good drama otherwise.

You're right it's not your problem I'm just calling out this is what you call a hater bashing on an actress because of her look. I like Zhou dong yu, but I wouldn't call myself a fan when I only watch one of her drama. You keeps bringing up alp fans as the one responsible for tli not getting good ratings and it's not my problem since it has nothing to do with me. You're the delusional one that keeps complaining about people hating on zls when that is not the case and whether tli will get better rating well good luck, you want to chase away anyone having any interest in this drama, then by all means I think this drama probably is not for me anyways.

I have to disagree with you here I love xukai's acting and I think he's very good in his interpretation of the roles he played whether they're cold or humorous. Since you mentioned the Chinese who complained about his acting, I noticed they seem to always preference story of yanxi palace or the legend, and xukai has improve so much since then. Guess his later dramas are not to they liking who knows, or they didn't like the pairings. I'm the opposite I like him even more after watching his later dramas and like that he doesn't stay in one genre and takes risks by playing different types of roles. Xukai is a natural actor and he's very expressive when his role calls for it, or the opposite, I like his micro expressions and think he will improve in his acting as he takes on more challenging roles. As a young actor, he's still learning and he said himself he wants to improve on his acting so there's no worries there, xukai knows and is constantly learning and improving in his acting. What he can improve on now is line delivery, and he said in an interview he's working on that as well so there's no need to worry for him, he knows his limits and is constantly learning.

Who rules the world kind of have the main leads who share some similarities to the main leads in this drama. The legend of fuyao is also good, an ancient love song is also a good one. Court lady is another xukai drama but the main leads don't spend lots of times together.

I think it's you that should give it a rest, I only know Zhou dong yu from alp and thought she was a good actress regardless of how she looks like, and she has always has haters bashing her on her looks especially in china. And you're talking to someone who watches dramas as entertainment and don't care about popularity. I'm sure zls is popular but in terms of who's the better actress I think we should believe in what the record show not putting down zls, but to even make such a comparison is an insult to zdy. She's not well known for doing dramas since she's more known for her movies and has the record of being the youngest actress to get three awards for her movies. Also if tli is a good drama it would've good rating regardless of those who like alp, it's pathetic to keeps blaming alp for tli poor rating. In my opinion dramas with low rating don't automatically make them a bad drama either, when a drama got inflated rating it's usually because of popularity rather than its quality, not saying dramas with better rating are not good dramas just depends on the popularity of the actors/actresses.

You're right it's not just CGI but because of great acting as well. Zhou dong yu is known as the youngest actress to get three times awarded for her movies. The acting was great in it for mains and supports. I don't go by other people's comments, but if I do then I seen lots of comments criticized tli so I think you should take your own advice and growth up and accept tli is not perfect and people comments on their own views rather than attacking every comment as a hater. You don't see me saying anything bad about tli since I haven't watch it, but your comments makes me think you don't even watch alp and go by those haters who didn't watch alp and hating it and calling the main actress ugly, the main actor fat or never go past the first few eps to get to know the plot, by complaining about the CGI I know right away you didn't watch the drama because alp was able to show the power and strength of the gods that I haven't seen in other xanxias i watched. I'm actually would be fine if tli was as good as alp or even better because that was the reason for my wanting to watch tli in the first place, unlike you I'm not a celebrity worshipper and can separate the actors/actresses I like from their dramas and don't think it's a personal attacks against them just because people don't like the dramas they're in. Also in saying original I meant the first, most people like original over sequel, it could be personal bias but if tli is as good as you said the rating should pick up in time and can stand on its own leg so no need to knock down alp just because it's not as popular like those older xanxias.

Regarding yangmi, she was always referred to as having a hit drama and tmopb was given as an example so I assumed she gotten even more fame after tmopb and the same for those other actors/actresses who did tmopb like Mark chao, vengo gao and dillireba.

Let just end this here since it goes nowhere. Didn't think anyone would be so hostile just because someone has a different opinions. I only interested in this drama because it was a sequel to tli, so I only commented because you're saying alp viewers hating on tli to refute such ridiculous statement. This is a public forum, you can't expect everyone on here to have only positives to post about this drama and not having any criticisms, and by jumping on those people and calling them haters you have alienate most watchers who want to check out this drama. Also I don't mean any disrespect to zls since I have never care about popularity of any actor/actress, I'm sure she's very popular but my only interest in this drama was because it's a sequel to alp, so you should stop bringing in zls into this and make it about her. Nobody has that much time to be a hater, and this will be my last comment on this. I only commented to you because you reply back to me. Also you should realizes by now popularity doesn't equal to quality, by saying alp has bad storyline or CGI i already can tell you didn't watch the drama and only parroting haters of alp, alp is my favorite xanxia for a reason, I can rewatch it many times and was looking forward to tli being of the same quality. Not sure if I want to check it out anymore though since it looks like it aimed towards younger audiences.

You're probably right about vengo gao being recognized, but is he more recognized than Mark chao and yangmi because I keep hearing tmopb was the drama that gotten all these actors/actresses recognized including dillireba. I know tmopb was very popular so lots of people were interested in its sequel and because of the pairing of vengo gao and dillireba. Without tmopb, there wouldn't be an elod so you shouldn't knock down the original for getting these actors and actresses their popularity. Without alp there wouldn't be tli or another side story moonlight mystique, so alp does have some success and recognition for producers to pick up on its success to produce other sequels that come after.

You're laughable, to me a drama is just means for entertainment, but you take a lot of time to jump on people for having like something else better and express their opinions. Is it a fact that alp is a bad drama with bad visual effects and storyline, because that just means you don't even watch the drama and making things up just like those people who attacked the main leads for their looks when dramas just started. This is what I called haters. Also zls is just another actress to me, I don't care about an actress popularity and only care about the quality of a drama. In china tmopb was regards as a big hit and yangmi and mark chao became well known for that drama, elod came after because of the success of tmopb. On mdl tmopb got better rating than elod. Who are you trying to convince if tli has surpassed alp then let it stand on its own rather than trying to jump on people who have a different opinions. If you're saying tli has surpassed alp in quality, content and acting than let those people who watched both decide for themselves which one is better is it? Mdl doesn't care about popularity and only the quality of dramas unlike in china, so the hate campaign you're referring to I wonder who are you talking about in china or in mdl and people on mdl are much nicer compare to those haters in china. Every actor/ actress has haters not zls, she's not the only exception. And this is a public forum, if someone wants to promote alp on this page then they're welcome to it, I also used to promote tli on alp page just because of it's being a sequel to alp.

There were two obsess people but the main leads were only into each other so I don't consider that a love triangle. I like how the girl was written compare to the boy though, she was a well rounded character rather than just crazy like how the boy was written.

Did you watch alp, granted if someone watches alp and has a higher expectation for tli because of its quality and got disappointed over it does not means they're haters. I haven't watch tli so can't say anything about it but I read some comments complaining about CGI and script so if those people have some valid reasons for not liking this drama then they're not haters. If they think alp is better after watching tli then that's their own opinions and you can't stop people from having a different of opinions. Also it's the opposite tmopb is bigger success than elod, and I come across people who like tmopb and didn't like elod and vice versa, and they stated in the comments many times without being told they're haters lol. Not understanding why zls fans seem to think everyone is out to get her, she is just an actress like any other, if they don't like the drama doesn't mean they're attacking her, you should learn to accept different in opinions and not jump in defend everytime someone has different opinions. I haven't hear anything negative about her besides not liking something from the drama, alp also has haters and we can distinguish those who attacks the actors and those who just have a different opinions and like something else without jumping them for having a different opinions.

Agree I'm sad they were not cast in moonlight mystique as well.

He lost too much weights in my opinion. But agree the dresses for fl are beautiful, and xukai looks so handsome is his costumes as well. I'm so glad to know this drama has a high budgets so we can expect a good production. Xukai praised the script and genre of this drama so I'm even more excited for the final product ^^

Xukai looks so cool in his battle armors. I think this drama has the most beautiful costumes for both the men and the women, I wonder if the budgets all went to the wardrobes because all the colors really stand out and eye-catching as a result cgi is poor because they ran out of budgets lol.

It was a short break up like the the poster below already said.

It's fine to have a different opinion. I think lini reaction is understandable and within reason so I wasn't mad at him for his reaction. I also don't think his men's death or his nurse's poison was cuilin's fault like so many accused her since the one who was responsible was her fake brother and lini's brothers. That memo just set things in motion faster. There's no reason why you can't finish the drama since drama ending is really satisfying ^^

The only problem is his officials all think the same way that the cui army has gotten too strong. Only general pei was on cui yi side and speak up for him. Even when minister gu hasn't sided with the fake cuilin, he was always against general cui yi because he wanted his daughter to get together with lini, and think the cui army is a threat. The emperor in war time actually wants to take over the cui army by marrying his sons to cui yi daughter, but once peace is restore he saw the cui army as a big threat to the throne and wants to disbanded the army and that was before the villains interfere.

Because they both understand each other enough to know to read what the other is thinking. I think that's why they're both so attracted to each other from their first meeting, both of them were trying to outsmart the other by anticipating what the others are thinking when they first met ^^
