I saw a clip on Weibo where WKW said viewers might think that some scenes looked overly prosperous but what he wanted to reconstruct isn't what it's accurately like back then but what people 'felt' back then. I think the backdrop of the story happened in Huanghe Road in Shanghai(I'm not sure as I just started watching but I base this on what he said) where people back then remember it as an opulent area. He and the original author talked about distorted memories of a place when you visit it then and now so I don't think creating the backdrop as accurate as it was, is a requirement in this production.

It’s good to send a feedback to WeTV to tell them what we’d like to watch because only by hearing our feedbacks would they know what intl. viewers want.

That’s true. I thought it was set a few decades earlier too but then it shows 1993 🙊 But I also don’t know how Shanghai is like in those days, and I do like what I see.

I tried to watch the beginning of Ep 1 from the link you gave me and I don’t get the Shanghainese part but they mainly spoke in standard Mandarin. So those I understand like around 60% and 10-20% guesswork. The rest I had to pause to ask someone or read/translate the sub slowly. 😮‍💨 Sounds like a lot of work, I’ll keep watching even if I don’t understand fully 🤣

Me too me too! The cinematography and WKW’s style…who can resist?

😅 Same…my Mandarin has improved a lot since 2020 but it’s still not good enough to understand everything.

Unfortunately not in my region…

Yeah especially if you need sub. I’ll try to watch the raw tomorrow. Not sure how much I understand 😩

It’s out but not on WeTV intl app and no sub.

Thank you!

Uh oh I couldn’t find it on WeTV…

Yes I like that about him.

I noticed too 😂

Wow, I don’t think so but this is such a cool theory 😂

All the while I kept thinking that too 😅 sheesh!!

Although he doesn’t appear much, every scene he’s in is intense. He didn’t even need to say anything. He could act with just his eyes.

Cheng Bing and Shitou are so dumb and careless to just follow someone unfamiliar to some alleys in a country they know is dangerous, and publicly asking abt a murderer. They were cops, they should know better tsk tsk tsk 🙄

He is! So is Chen Minghao.

This 💯!

I’m inclined to believe this after watching the whole drama.
