Its because she is new to professional pro-gamer where she lacks about experience in this field and she is learning...whereas…
Her being inexperienced with professional gaming has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. Her hitting people. Biting someone's arm to the point of leaving teeth marks. Consistently acting dense and having this vacant look on her face. It has nothing to do with the gaming aspect. She literally had a serious boyfriend for years in college. She's not a baby. Her best-friend is much more normal for that age. The actress is beautiful and adorable but there is no DEPTH to her acting. Just lots of vacant doe eyes. Which is fine! She's lovely to look at but the drama lacks emotional depth. It's FINE that many of you disagree!!!! Really!!!!
The FL's character is written as a 18 year old even though they have changed her age in the drama they can't just…
There's a pretty big difference between an 18 year old and a post college graduate who was in a long term relationship before. So her character would work in the book but it doesn't translate in the drama *in my personal opinion* And it's not about looking childish or being around tall boys. I'm talking about the actual range/depth of her character. Lots of other drama's have been able to pull it off with their female characters. This one just falls short probably because of a combination of the story being written for a teenager not a post college graduate and the actress herself not being experienced enough to bring more to the role.
then why you now watch it if you don't like it? (no hate just curious)
I'm on episode 20. I've hoped for some growth of the female leads character and am expressing my frustration that there has not been any growth. It's a disservice to the show to have written such a childish character lacking depth. You can be super cute and fluffy and youthful but still have depth and range.
For me Xu Kai carries this drama. They wrote the FL to be a total blockhead. She's written as both an "innocent child" and someone who fights and literally bites people impulsively???? I get that they are supposed to have this mentor master /student relationship but Xu Kai's character looks at her like a 12 year old but also wants her and it makes it all a weird dynamic to me because of how dense she is. This trope is done MANY times and it can be done well! So it's not a matter of her being a rookie in a new environment. Her character lacks depth. The writer doesn't really develop her well enough. She hasn't matured as the drama goes on so this constant thing where Xu Kai's like a "serious dad" to her is wearing thin! Like if you look in her brain there's no one home. I can't figure out if it's simply bad writing of the FL character or the actress just doesn't have much range to act with more depth but this would only be believable if she was playing 17 not 22. And even then, if you've seen 30 still 17 you can play a teenager with lots of range and depth of emotions/thoughts. This actress just doesn't have the experience. Her beautiful face and big lovely eyes are nice to look at but make what should be a very dynamic interesting character...... boring and that's a shame because this drama had lots of potential if some of the characters were more developed.
All I can think of watching this is how much more interesting the "flashback" events are to me and how I wish the show was actually about that storyline and started in that time period and the "present day" stuff was left to the latter half of the drama. The flash back thing just isn't working for me in the way that I wish it would.
I remember one acc with word hunter at beginning of her/his acc, the comments are exactly like 2 acc you mention…
Xu Kai is one of the very rare actors who is extremely handsome but also can play both strong and vulnerable. This is a rare combination and I will never understand the people who can hate him.
I've watched a decent amount of Cdrama's and I swear this is the only one I've seen where they actually straight up talk about sex, being horny, and clearly show when the couple have sex (totally PG rated it's just the kissing leading up to it and clothes) but still....... isn't this more racy than most Cdrama's for TV? Are there others?
This drama had possibly the best cinematography EVER and the OST was absolutely flawless. It's an absolute masterpiece. The singular flaw was some of the writing/plot points but that's getting nitpicky...... as far as acting performance, direction, musical composer, pacing, etc from beginning to end this was just everything. And personally I loved the first 10 episodes. I would watch literally anything if it was the same production team and composer. Yang Mi & Mark Chao were incredible.
Do the sisters ever stop acting like 5 year olds with the faces and tongues sticking out because it's cute for like 5 minutes but ridiculous when they are 20 years old.
I'm watching this after just finishing Eternal Love TMOPB and I'm struggling so hard. This feels so shallow and childish compared to Eternal Love. I feel like I'm watching a Youth Drama. Sifeng is the only thing keeping me in this so far as of episode 6. Should I drop? Does it get more mature? Deeper? The FL and her sister/sister bf are killing me
Can someone tell me the airing release schedule for this? What days does it release episodes? I've watched the first 14 and am slowly dying waiting for more eps!
This is super underrated for incredible pacing, sweet adorable fluffiness, no characters or storylines you hate and have to waste toxic energy on, beautiful scenery and music. I extremely wish I had a Dragon Husband!!!! If you like fluffy romance this is it. Forget the ratings and reviews and watch it!
This drama is the perfect blend of everything I want. Sweetness, beauty, comedy, action, incredible set design, perfect music. And for me, I LOVE Xu Kai's performance. He has to play a stoic character and he has to limit hit range in order to be stoic but even within that limited range you know exactly what he feels. It's a similar vibe to Princess Agents in the way that he must balance love & duty.
Then once you are done with that watch Fashion King Louis
It's a 10 for me so far.
