You know I am excited to see news of what her next drama will be like and with whom. I hope she is in an female centric drama or a costume drama with Wallace Chung. That man can act!!!
Truly This one and the previous ones are the Best outfit of Raba this year, The Golden gown she wore in Clarins…
She has been wearing some magnificent gowns this year so I hope it continues! I actually really loved the styling of that dress but didn't love the award ceremony look!
I can't comment on the novel, but I think the script/direction isn't doing either of the characters any favours.…
Absolutely. In the hands of the right producers/directors/platform this drams would've been the year's greatest drama. But they wasted it pandering to an audience rather than meeting them in the middle - give them the novel but with adaption flourishes. I wanted this drama to really give us the full, brutal force the novel gave us. But instead they gave us a watered down. Tbh these producers/youku need to write their own stuff instead of wasting great novels. At least then we don't get disappointed
The minute Reba signs with IQIYI I am gonna scream because they are creating some amazing dramas both costume and modern. I feel like since they shouted her out on her birthday, there are some things brewing. Speaking it into existence!

In the novel they are both highly principled yet compassionate individuals who are highly flawed and insecure in many ways. Here they appear too "perfect" lol I guess because Youku are intending this to hit with younger viewers but they missed the mark a bit because the storyline is too driven by romance rather than the moral ambiguity that comes with seeking revenge. We get brief moments of it but what the novel greatly captured was the feeling of emotional alienation, distortion of character, personal forgiveness etc I guess its too early to tell but its evidence so far that Youku never intended to give us those harsh realities but rather a cushioned version of it. I mean, they really downplayed the massacred that was so pivotal in the novel especially when they find out why the 80,000 soldiers had to die! The sense of loss of those soldiers was so great I honestly cried and the translation wasn't even great LOL
No matter how much I hate the direction they took with the drama, I keep coming back to support Reba and her drama. But I can't help hating how they are diminishing Anle's brilliance to shine some on HY when in the novel they are equally capable as individuals but unstoppable as a team.
I love their chef and aunty in the leads residence. I love the nature of both the female leads in this drama. At the centre of it all, they care for the people around them and are kind.
Ren Anle of The Legend Of Anle hits 9.25 on vlinkage, the highest score for a female character in 2023. She broke the record of 9.23 held by An Ni from Prosecution Elite: https://twitter.com/rageluvr/status/1681524456903303169
