I agree with Zoro1711. It all depends on the scenario and whether the character is interesting to XZ. However,…
Xiao Zhan was actually saying that in his recent interview as well lol - where he promised not to take a period drama but here he was still shooting one lol. I think ur right I think sometimes at the moment u will say "never again" but if a project speaks to u than u tend to forget that and just want to take it head on.
I am just glad he will still take on period dramas because I am one of those people that think Xiao Zhan just looks amazing in costume and it would be a shame if he just stopped filming them. And his last 2 dramas after TLP were both modern. But the film Condor Heroes gives me hope.
Personally loved Where Dreams Begin (Youth Memories lol - prefer WDB as the name). I know it is a period drama…
Completely agree. Like I am still surprised at how much I love the drama lol. The plot was cohesive and smooth and nothing really lacking. Even all the supporting cast members were interesting - I tend to be horrible with names and supporting cast member names I tend to never remember. However, I actually know their names because they had an interesting story. Kind of makes me want to watch Sunshine by My Side because I know WDB is a script that Xiao Zhan picked himself and wasn't forced to take. So, out of all the scripts he picked Sunshine by My Side so it must be very appealing - just wished they came out with a trailer already.
I am confused: The High Priest wants Shi Ying to be a master of one of the Bai female descendants so that he could…
The High Priest is a hypocrite - best way to put it. Even though the beliefs of a priest is to not get married, take the crown and all that he still wants Shi Ying to become emperor and get married (the emperor must marry someone from the Bai clan - it is tradition). He thinks if one of the Bai sisters becoems his disciple they will grow to like one another or grow close enough that Shi Ying will want to marry her. He is stuck on getting revenge because he loved Shi Ying's mother that he forgot the oath he took.
🤷♀️ Who knows? I think its to showcase her age and how her actions aren't mature enough. Or maybe she…
Right if that was me I would be OUT! I learn my lessons from scary movies lol. Never be in a dark & spooky place for longer than u need to lol. Nothing ever good comes of it
🤷♀️ Who knows? I think its to showcase her age and how her actions aren't mature enough. Or maybe she thougjt it was okay - kind of like when girls try on their friends dress or their sisters clothes. But definitely not the best time or place for her to try it on and start dancing lol
Just wondering if i should watch The Youth memories first or The Longuest promise..
Personally loved Where Dreams Begin (Youth Memories lol - prefer WDB as the name). I know it is a period drama and might not be appealing like modern dramas or costume but it was REALLY good. And I went in thinking it was going to be boring but it really surprised me with how well it was written. Probably my 2nd favorite drama of Xiao Zhan and I have rewatched it a few times.
TLP is good as well if u like fantasy/pain lol. I think u should just decide on what ur feeling. But since WDB ended u can start with that and maybe by than TLP will be far enough that u can binge that as well lol.
The drama is so cute ... can someone tell me, 1. what is the ML's master trying to do ? is he helping the ML or…
1. The ML's master was in love with the ML's mother so for revenge he is trying to manipulate Shi Ying to become the emperor and destroy all those that hurt his mother. So, in a way he is manipulating him but he is also helping him. He does care for Shi Ying and wants the best for him but he crosses the line in almost becoming manipulative. U can think of it as an overprotective dad in a way. He loves Shi Ying but prevents him from meeting new people, dictating his life and telling him what he can and can't do.
2. Don't know the answer to this but from other comments it is said that she isn't the reincarnated grandmother - she is just Zhu Yan.
I believe so. Xiao Zhan, in an interview, said he was at that filming location for several works.
Yea lol. He was saying he went there 4 times - Douluo, Untamed, TLP & apparently Cai Ding (from Heroes in Harms Way). I am guessing they use the same locations a lot for most dramas.
I think that is the case for most xianxia dramas though - they tend to all have the angst and how 2 people who…
I think anyone at the top will get a lot of hate - its not because they think the person is good or bad they just hate that the person is competition with their fave. And sadly a lot of sites use that against people as well. Like "buy these flowers and see who becoems #1" or on weibo "see who is #1 on the supertopic charts" and all of these charts in general. Of course when an environment is like that people are going to fight those they think are in their faves way. Xiao Zhan is #1 so everyone is going to pull him down.
I dont even go on other comment sections - except for K-dramas and that too for a little bit lol. I have such little free time from work and life that I dont want to waste it on fighting people in the comment section lol. It just gives me a headache reading responses that are just hate driven - talking to them will just make me need to take 2 tylenols lol.
Hoping for a more positive environment but doubt we will get it lol. Just read someones post and they were talking about astrological signs and how the 2 leads signs didnt match. It was year of rooster or somethign liek that lol. Got a tarot reader in the chat now lol. Fun times
I agree with Zoro1711. It all depends on the scenario and whether the character is interesting to XZ. However,…
That is true - I was just worried that he would stop doing costume dramas and there are still so many roles that I want him to take lol. Wuxia is fine - I feel like the characters in that drama tend to be the same type anyways (cold and lonely). So him doing one should last him forever.
Glad to hear that my hope for a historical drama hasn't died. I do agree that influence from outside pressures will influence some peoples decision and most people know how great XZ looks in those costumes. I know in the interview he did for Shi Ying he was saying how he wasn't goign to do period dramas anymore but here he is still shooting it lol. But it does make me feel like he won't pick that script over a modern drama. So, maybe we wont get that many roles from him in costume . . .but still hoping he shoots a few lol.
The point system that deducts points from people that are bad and adds points to people who are deemed good students reminds me of Harry Potter lol. 5 points for Gryffindor lol.
But he is so cute! Their story is interesting. I hope he turns it around.
I feel like he is just going to fall even deeper in love with her at this point. I mean she betrayed him and even though he seemed hurt I think he still has feelings for her - he cares for her too much. But I am glad he didn't become a snitch and tell the person he is working for that Shi Ying is the crown prince.
They seem to be setting up General guy to be Bai 'bad' sister's partner. But just like Professor Snape, I'm not…
Lol, the conversation between Zhu Yan & Shi Ying is getting more funny. But I thought when Chong Ming foudn out that they hugged and how he reacted was hilarious lol - it was like he cheated on him.

Ahhhhh why is this so cute!!!! The smile on his face 🥺🥺🥺

But I love our cock-blocker lol. And plus Shi Ying is cheating on him so he has to take action lol
5 points for Gryffindor lol.
Poor guy got manipulated and used by Bai Xue Lu and he still fell in love with her 🤨. Some people just cant be saved .
