Interesting. So basically, Yue Mi's love for Tian Qi will finally be returned in this lifetime and Tian Qi will be able to make it up to her. Thanks!

I understand that Bai Shuo is a reincarnation of Yue Mi and that Fan Yue is also a reincarnation of Tian Qi, which are both characters from Ancient Love Poetry. For those who watched Ancient Love Poetry, can you please summarize the relationship between Tian Qi and Yue Mi? I didn't watch that drama so I didn't quite understand Fan Yue's statement regarding Bai Shuo's eyes resembling those of another he clearly holds dear.

It is subjective. I read a comment a few days ago saying Dylan Wang is an average looking Asian dude. I'm Asian with Chinese roots and I can honestly say that Dylan Wang will never be average looking in Asia, let alone China. Average is ordinary so it means I'd be able to see someone who looks like him walking around my neighborhood. But I don't and I doubt someone does. Ao Ruipeng is the same, he has a very distinct look that is not common in Asia, people who have similar features are usually of mixed race like half-American or something. And mixed race folks like that are usually considered more attractive. Not to mention he's about 6'3. That's like basketball player height in Asia.

Love Liu Yuning too. Definitely my favorite Chinese singer! And yes, Bai Lu is really pretty, she and Ruipeng make a lovely couple. I think I will like her pairing with Ruipeng more than with Zhang Linghe and I also really liked them together.

Ao Ruipeng is around the same height as Liu Yuning, almost 6 foot 3. He's actually a favorite of mine. Been a fan of his since I saw him in The Blood of Youth. Hope he does well in this drama. This is his biggest role and project to date and he's paired with no other than Bai Lu, one of the biggest stars in China.

That's why I asked the question here. And I thought C-ent couldn't get any more toxic. I am amazed at how low some people can get for the sake of competition.

I don't usually believe rumors. But I want to fact check. That's why I asked the question on this site. I know there are people like you who know better. Thank you again.

Ahh yes. I know that dramas are previewed by the censorship board, it's a necessary step for them to obtain their distribution license. Thank you for answering. That's all I wanted to know.

It's not about the negative reviews, it's the fact that the report claims that people have seen it and are writing their reviews. I wanted to know if it's possible for people in China to see the drama in advance. I know that there will always be people who would review bomb dramas with actors they dislike or don't support, but this is the first time I heard someone claiming that people have already seen the drama.

Thank you! That's what I wanted to know. That report is so irresponsible, claiming that people in China have already seen it when previews are not even being done there and that the early reactions are overwhelmingly negative.

So it's true that some fans have already seen the whole drama? I asked because I have never heard of previews for C-dramas before. How did they even get to watch the drama?

I don't know. That's why I'm asking if early screenings are common in China because the drama hasn't even started yet. I know they're previewed by the censorship board but I've never heard of early screenings for critics, press, or test audiences. I honestly don't care if the reviews are good or bad because it's me who's going to be the judge, but I dislike it when they falsify reports of early reactions just to tarnish a drama's reputation even before it comes out. It's one thing to hate on a drama and review bomb it because of competition and rivalry but it's another to spread false rumors. That's the lowest of lows.

I have a question. If anyone can enlighten me, I'd appreciate it. I just saw a video reporting that the drama didn't garner favorable reviews from test audiences that watched the preview. My question is this, are previews actually a thing in China? I know they are common in the States. Hollywood productions normally invite press people and film critics for press junkets and early screenings weeks before the release, then only when the review embargo is lifted, they can release their full reviews. But I have never heard anything like that being done in China. I don't really care if the so-called early reactions are good or not, I will still watch the drama and see for myself. I'm just curious to know if it really is a thing because this is the first time I've heard about it.

Yes, it's the very reason why I liked this drama. But there's no time travel, just transmigration, or in anime lingo, isekai.

I actually thought they should've given him the role of the emperor. He's in his late 40's and actors that age are usually given father roles in historical dramas. He would've made a striking emperor and I would totally buy that a young impressionable princess would fall for him. Even though he's a terrific actor and slayed the role of a villain, I would've liked to see him in a more wholesome role in this drama. They could've gotten another equally good but younger actor to play the crown prince.

Yes, they're both on my watchlist too.

Oh good! Thanks! Looking forward to it!

Is the January 7 release date real?

Maybe A Moment But Forever will premiere after Moonlight Mystique.

Hopefully Moonlight Mystique will premiere next week so I can have something else to watch. I usually juggle at least two dramas at a time. 😂
