Chen Feiyu looks like a young adult playing dress-up, which makes him lack gravitas, but otherwise I really enjoyed…
In the novel he is only 19 when he meets He Simu, and it’s his first military assignment So he’s not meant to have that heavy "gravitas", the youthful energy actually fits the character rather than being a flaw.
My only complaint about POJ is that it really needed more than 40 episodes to fully do the story justice. There’s so much depth in the plot that a lot of it deserved more space on screen, and I really wish we had more time to properly go through everything, and even enjoy it for a little longer. (I’m saying this as a novel reader, don’t get me wrong).
QM truly loves QQ but he doesn't know how to express it at all. Due to his childhood and the absence of anyone…
I agree, his life basically stopped at four, the fire never went out, it burned inside him for seventeen years. Everything after that was just survival, living under another identity, surrounded by distrust, fear and hatred with no safety or support, only constant tension and suppressed emotions. Qianqian was the only light he ever had, but by then, he was already too broken to love in a healthy way.
