His weight loss was largely for the intensive stunts. It wasn't excessive.
I believe it was his choice, for safety and other considerations as well. He was trained in ballet, a profession where the industry standard worldwide is that dancers are strict about their optimal performance weight. I can think of many other cases where I couldn't agree more with you. I have also seen many of these actors in real life and they don't look good at all.
Also, someone in the comments said that being among the TOP 5 shows is equivalent to flopping?
I would have ignored them if it were just one post but they kept spamming the comment section with the same thing. 🤷🏻♀️ Its usually the big budget so called top dramas with the most views that lose most of the money. My understanding is this one is already well sold and is profitable so whatever incremental slots they sell is just icing on the cake.
I think this is a much better mystery series than CD, where the FL was pulling conclusions out of thin air. Its…
😂😂😂 Love it - angry bird is spot on! Yes her heart is lighter and it shows. The actor has done a good job in showing her emotional progression. But they are still not in a good relationship place and their marriage is still on hold, hence why they still address each other as sect brother and sister.

Yes indeed. To the platforms they are selling time-slots. They usually air a drama when they sell enough to break even. And then the viewing schedule is set according to how "sold out" they are on the slots. When the schedule is only updated week to week, it means they have lots of unsold ad inventory. When its out all at once, that means they not only broke even, they are making money. Of course Wanted Detective is obviously quite low budget - its easy to make money on it. Immortal Ascension is one of the most expensive airing dramas at the moment. It may get many more views but the cost was so high it may not end up making as much money.

Depend on what else is airing. And from what iQiyi IR just told me, its broke even commercially already, which is why we are getting 2 episodes a day every day with no break. They don't need to drag out the airing schedule to sell more ads - unlike another currently airing drama that is higher on the charts. Go put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Yeah and audiences are much rougher on women than men. ML was arrogant, condescending and he took on a case to show off his genius and said case got his master, the FL's father killed dead. But no one calls him out on it.

Top 5 shows means nothing and has nothing to do with quality. When there are no dramas airing during low season, really bad, cheap dramas can top the charts. This is high season bc of school holidays in China - everyone is pushing out their top, most expensive dramas. And anywhere in the Top 5 is good enough for all the platforms behind them to make money bc ad slots are most expensive this time of year. Just ignore the ignorant posts. The Douban comments on this drama so far are very positive.
I have become a big Mo Caihuan / Han Li shipper. I think the main reason is because I can see he treats her differently…
@budoboo very well called it an undeveloped romance bc she is mortal. I also loved that part where he struggled with himself though I was not 100pct sure if it was not to hug her back or not to extricate himself. But I think the moment moved him and had impact on him; that he is not exactly indifferent to her, just steadfast in his life choice. I also sensed that the first time he left her. I guess these undeveloped or could have been feelings are what grow into heart obsessions over time. The longer he lives, the greater the regret for that moment in time that cannot be attained again no matter how long he lives.

Honestly she is not the best but far from the worst either. But she is American, her mannerisms and expressions are quite different and she is not stick thin. She doesn't walk around with a beatific smile and gaze lovingly at the ML with a deadpan wide-eyed Bambi expression. Thus there is no "chemistry" and she looks grumpy or constipated when she frowns or even dares to move her face muscles. She definitely doesn't fit the standard c-drama FL we are used to seeing I can understand why some of it comes across as too modern or out of place. But I don't mind it I think its quite refreshing I got bored with Bambi eons ago.
As for dragging, I don't know what that means exactly. Its fair to compare dramas in any discussion. Otherwise why have a comment section?
