Daffodils

Ep 6 - Elliott and Kipuka were on fire in this ep. They have raised the notch quite a few levels. These actors are so giving to each other and to the audience. The bed scene has a terrible lighting (so amateurish) yet there is an angle that you never see in c dramas. They are lying along side each other and you can see there is not gap between their bodies. In C dramas that plane is not taken even in modern dramas because the actors are only "sharing" the upper body. Happen in K dramas too, The first night with the duke is clearly she is quite separate from him. These CP was melting into each other and compensate for the terrible cinematography. Li Pei En again a sound performance as the love struck man, but unfortunately Jian Heng despite his improvement, it is not match for him. Their dissonance bothers me and I am not convince by the chemistry either. (apologies to the fans of this second CP).

I am with you, I don't understand why the obsession with celebrities and their private lives. I watched tons of C and K dramas and I must confess I don't always make an effort to learn their real names, nothing that I am proud of, but that's the truth.

Revenged Love obviously delusion. In relation to Elliot and Kipuka, Chinese fans said they are but we will never know if they want to survive I c ent they cannot come out as gay! Golden rule

Exactly. Let's referred to Elliot and Kipuka. I read Chinese fans that they have been an item for a while. Maybe but we shouldn't care and secondly, even if they were gay we will never know, because in China actors cannot come out if the want to have a career in showbiz!

Too many deluded fujoshi i am afraid. Recently i read that because the CP of Revenged Love broke up with the girlfriends (very much in plural 😂) they can get together. I think those guys have given enough evidence they prefer girls 😊anyway, as they know what deluded fans like they were throwing "candies" . On The Untamed: for me is beautiful and the bts is a joy to watch. When I am low I watched those two interacting. It lifts my soul immediately

Come on! Even you and me would know they needed to rely on the International audience and these needed translation. This is why they have a channel in YouTube and Instagram that are platform not allowed in China!

Totally agree, it causes a lot craziness and delusions

Yes! fan service has that effect on me too.

Im here for the storyline too and that progress to a turtle pace. I dont have time for bts and im aggravated by fan service in general, particular BL. The formula of "feeding" us these material during the week feels patronising and forced. Like you I watched The Untamed a couple of time before " falling" into the bts. But once you do, it is a rabbit hole. Those guys were hilarious. In China, my Chinese friends said that ever since everybody is trying to copy them thinking that by doing this they will become as famous!?

Yes, and it is not for lack of money! They easily can hire a translator when releasing new material

I'm sure a lot of people like myself have busy jobs. To be honest I don't even recall what was the last ep about. I'm one of those considering abandoning ship!

This is were they are failing, the lack of vision to understand that their should be focused on international audiences. Chinese audiences should have not had access to the series. As it is not allowed there! This is where they went wrong with the Chinese owned platforms

Some people are "losing the will to live by now" and either abandoning boat or waiting to binge watch by the end. Growing steadily in show biz? First time I heard about it. The aspiration is to hit hard from the beginning. What do you think k dramas are so successful. Two eps per week is the formula

Bless you! Tame me but Elliott in English is not bad :-)

No, it won't, but dragging this series until October is a serious mistake. At least there should be 2 episodes per week to avoid further risks

Yes, i found it as it is not bad thanks to Elliot acting/singing qualities!

Looking for the one that you were commenting I stumbled on another song by Elliot for this series in Chinese and it is atrocious. What a dreadful song, no fault of Elliot of course. I will keep looking the one in English. OK I found it Tame me, not bad at all, of course corny trying to be sexy but Elliot is making a bit of a miracle there. Bless him.

Thai BLs are famous for torturing us with their lead actors singing, except that is William and other great Thai singers that happened to be in BLs, but that's their niche, the land of fan service, I was not expecting they repeat "the formula" in this Chinese BL. In mainstream high ranking Chinese dramas, those are the one I watch, I have never heard any rubbish singer!

Songs rant: i understand now why people in China are getting aggravated by the Sisters Nong. In China OST are a whole institution those are sing by the best live singers or have stars like S DingDing lending their compositions. The first song release by Elliott is decent and Elliot voice is not extraordinary but warm and velvety while carrying the emotion . Sister Nong can carry a tune but her voice is pedestrian. Now second song. It is plain bad. Kipuka is not a singer! And we are "gifted" yet again with Sister Nong version. Mediocre rich woman who can paid for her own recording session!!! Im aggravated now too!

The sisters dating?I thought they were blood sisters. Maybe they are not and they are a happy lesbian CP. Are you sure they were not talking about Elliot and Kipuka? I read Chinese accounts that claim they are an item for a while, but in China in showbiz people dont come out if they want an acting career (well in most countries!)
