I hope they don't do as you did with Mark Chao (who was wonderful in Ten Miles of Peach Blossons), playing Ye…
That one with Gong Li was awful. Even in black and white she looks like his mother and his acting was not noticeable in it. It was not a good pick from a picky actor.
I have to say there are some seriously disturbed characters in this drama:
1. We have Hao Chen and Wutong who both have a fetish for mindless puppets instead of women; 2. We have Teng She who is spoiling for a fight over a thousand years; 3. We have a fox spirit who is trying to free her monkey for a thousand years; 4. And finally we have Si Feng who still trails after a woman that has killed him dead over 9 past lifetimes!!! These peeps are all overly obsessive and need some serious therapy.
As a Chinese, never have I watched a c-drama which requires me to depend on the subtitles as much as this drama…
This is an extremely difficult drama to translate because many of the metaphors and poems need interpretation and requires the interpreter to be highly educated in Chinese classics and literature. I had to watch this with my dad so that he could explain some of the hidden meanings for me.
why would you control what anyone thinks or does not think , does or does not do?
Oh I am very much enjoying both; truth be told I only watch L&R after I run out of episodes for both. I am not in a good mood, I lost two uncles and a cousin in the last 3 months. L&R is too excessively angsty and sad for me I struggle to watch it. Both Maiden Holmes and Qing Qing Zi Jin are funny and a bit silly and my bar is low right now but I don't think I am giving good reccomendations at the moment so see what other people think / see for yourself.
Yes, Young Blood was pretty good for me.Other investigative plots to consider for 2020 would be The Sleuth of…
What I mean is Republican era is infamous for sad shit happening because it sucks to live in that time bad shit just happens. It’s not the case in detective L and there is a little bit in the Eight only. L&R is OTT angst by comparison.

Ahhhhh!!!!! ICIC!!! I kinda thought I was missing something. Got it and IMHO best ignore. I only can wish to enjoy everything I am watching as much as you like this and it’s a great “problem” to have. :)

Hmm... I see what you mean but from what I have seen so far the comments seem overwhelmingly positive. I don't open spoilers esp since I am way behind only at ep 30ish but looks like everyone loves this so maybe there are negative comments I haven't seen yet..... I can honestly tell you I don't super love the show as much as most people but its good enough I am happy to keep watching.

You may like Detective L. The rest are on my PTW but I have to tell you the cases in Hairpin are a bit of a yawn so its gonna all be up to the leads. (I read all the books).

I am ok with people saying what they think regardless of whether I agree. That;s the way it should be. Thankfully this site does not restrict divergent views.
