I just have one thing to say. I think it's odd how people hate the Princess despite knowing her backstory, but…
I agree with you. Wan Ning (Li Meng) is one of the most memorable characters I've ever seen. Her traumatic past is a mitigating factor. On the other hand, nothing mitigates Shen Yu Rong, cruel by nature, driven only by cold ambition. Wan Ning lived a miserable existence, without receiving love from anyone. Destroyed by brutal traumas, she became a maladjusted person, mentally ill. She is a tragic character who transmits, to the viewer, ambiguous feelings that oscillate between repulsion and compassion. But SYR only causes repulsion. I wrote an article about The Double and there is an analysis about Wan Ning. If you are interested, it is in this link (and also in the "Articles" section of MDL). Contains spoilers. https://kisskh.at/article/the-presence-of-arts-in-the-double
According to the filming history, it started 3 years ago. There was a delay because during filming ZSE was accused of tax evasion. There was a break in filming during the period in which she was investigated and, later, she was acquitted. ZSE was out of work for 2 years and now resurfaces with the success she deserves.

I loved your comment! Perfect! Did you know that Liu Yu Ning is primarily a singer and only later became an actor?…
He was born for art, an example of life, he lost his mother when he was a child, fought for survival and was destined to shine! He sings in almost all the series. I will leave links to songs from three series and a clip (Weibo, 05/21/2025), so you can get to know a little of his work., in the first two links he also acted as an actor. Regarding LLTG, many people had the same perception as you, it is a personal matter, but IMOP, TPOB is a unique work, the style and aesthetics of the director are very peculiar, the series has a delicate and deep poetic universe, there is a meticulousness in the details, typical of Chinese art, there are stunning scenes that are true paintings, in addition to quotes from poems, literary works, ancient authors, the series has cultural value. The characters are full of human realism, they are all striking and well directed. I also started watching YG, but it has no quality, I watched two episodes and gave up.....I am so glad you found TPOB: it is a beautiful journey!
I'm so glad I found about this drama when it's nearing end and halfway through the series. Otherwise, if I had…
I loved your comment! Perfect! Did you know that Liu Yu Ning is primarily a singer and only later became an actor? He is an exceptional singer, the song that ends each episode is sung by him (the opening song is sung by Ayanga). You will love the series! I am sure it will be one of the biggest hits of 2025, it has been breaking several records! SZE's performance is simply spectacular: all her expressive power is in her eyes, in addition to her facial expressions of exceptional subtlety. This series is certainly a turning point in her career. Liu Yu Ning, in the same way, surpassed all his previous works, it is the most mature and challenging performance of his career.
Dear Jabofi, I have just read your words. I was so moved that as soon as I finished, I went to the garden to look…
Hi, my friend Isana Amed, your comment is a poem... You are certainly gifted with a rare, sensitive and precious heart. Therefore, a single heart says it all, because it comes from you! Thank you very much!
Coming here I found out theres more to it. Netflix cuts off the last 3-5 minutes of The Double. I went daily motion…
Many fans of The Double still don't know that there is an episode 40.5, which is essential for absolute satisfaction. This extra episode was made to clear up any doubts about the ending. In the words of the series' producer, Yu Zheng: "Generally, pessimistic people will overwhelm optimistic people. People because they are pessimistic will chatter endlessly and want to prove they are right, while optimistic people don't care about arguments and live in their own world. So, I decided instead of me explaining 40 was HE, I would make 40.5, so everyone can see for themselves it was HE". Below is the link with all the episodes of The Double, including episode 40.5.👇
Yes, but you will need to watch The Double Special (40.5) to see XH, XFF and their daughter. "The Double" is a…
The distribution of The Double Special (40.5) has indeed been restricted. I always come here to share this information because I want everyone to have the same joy as me. I'm very happy for you!
Yes, but you will need to watch The Double Special (40.5) to see XH, XFF and their daughter. "The Double" is a…
The Double is a vast field of Beauty and Poetry. It is a work that needs to be seen at least three times to properly encounter the universe of Art and symbolism, as these are the pillars of its narrative, a true gift for the eyes and the heart!
LYN revealed in an interview that TPOB has a HE. The interview was humorous, he himself commented on how other characters he played were not as lucky as Wei Shao.
Yes, but you will need to watch The Double Special (40.5) to see XH, XFF and their daughter. "The Double" is a masterpiece, with a subtle narrative that uses a universe of symbols. If you want to know more about "The Double", I invite you to read the article "The Presence of Arts in The Double", the link is below, or in the MDL Articles section. I wrote the article and MDL writer Cho Na did preliminary editing and page design. https://kisskh.at/article/the-presence-of-arts-in-the-double
I feel exactly like you. Making changes to novels, many of which have been acclaimed by the public, should observe a certain ethics, it is a respect that is owed to the public. We invariably see that screenwriters change the essence of the work, they assassinate not only the characters and their happy endings, but also the work itself. We see how people are sincerely and concretely shaken, fantasy is a necessity for our human relationship with Existence, dreams are our space of fulfillment and rest, especially in today's world in permanent upheaval, so troubled. I often get emotional when I read comments from users here at MDL. I read one saying that his life was already so difficult, expensive rent, expensive food and he just wanted a little joy, a happy ending so he could sleep in peace. Another said that he was alone on New Year's Eve with a cat and some Rosé wine. I told him: "Your comment is poetic, a living painting. You are not alone: I am toasting you!" I end up crying not only because of the unhappy endings of the series, but also because of these real lives seeking joy, dreams and company here. The imbalance between offers of happy endings, sad endings and open endings is notorious: overwhelmingly they are sad and open endings. It is, yes, sadism, it is inhumane, they make fortunes with our tears!
