I feel like they will either get killed or become his enemies...

I am not sure that guy learnt anything from anyone, he only had the tools. Zang Hai literally had to explain to him how to skin him properly cause Guanfeng had no idea what he was actually doing

Ikr? Such a beautiful couple. I cried my eyes out

I really like the actors who portrayed the parents, especially the actress . I am officially hooked

I didn’t expect to be ugly sobbing in episode 1 😭

Well yeah that’s the point I was trying to make. Have to agree about GJ 😅 Doing a BL is not enough to jumpstart one’s career. With a certain amount of luck it can give your career a push but the rest is up to talent and hard work

I feel like there’s a huge gap between what is ACTUALLY happening in Chinese drama land and what international audiences THINK is happening there. I can’t count how many times I have seen fans on international platforms genuinely hype up actors/dramas for being super big in China when they actually aren’t and may actually be struggling to find employment . My guess is that happens because C drama international demographic mostly consists of BL and CP lovers and that’s typically all the content they consume. Add to that a lack of access to Chinese sns and you get a misinformed audience existing in their CP/BL bubble who would never believe you when you tell them about Beitang Moran

I am sorry to say this, but Xiao Zhan got so much attention for his portrayal of WWX not thanks to but despite the CP. He did so well that he was able to even compensate for his co-actor’s shortcomings in the acting department . And his first breakthrough role was Beitang Moran, where he didn’t even get the girls. Look at all the Chinese actors doing CP to promote their dramas - it gets them nowhere. Cause you can only build a career on your own merit, doing CP can only bring some temporary hype at best

If doing a BL guarantees success why only Xiao Zhan is the one working with big name directors and leading projects? So what happened to all the other actors who did BL , where is their “guaranteed” success? 😂 Let me help you , it’s not there because the only “guarantee” of a successful career is hard work (and a certain amount of luck). Xiao Zhan is the most prominent young actor in China right now for good reason

Same! Also this is the first time I’ve seen a platform properly promote Xiao Zhan’s project, it feels so nice . I am counting hours at this point

This is beyond cruel 😭

Maybe it will be on Netflix later, but it’s going to be simulcast on Disney+

The leads are basically the same age, the ml is 33 and the fl is 25. Get a grip lol
Please, go watch kdramas and leave this drama alone. Thanks!

I am seated

Ok, I am seated . This looks very exciting

This poster looks amazing! I can’t wait to meet Zang Hai

Yeah, and you can tell the director doesn’t seem to know what he’s doing 😅 It’s not a plot issue or a character development issue, so I don’t need more episodes to see that this project lacks better directing and/or editing.
I suspected from the trailer that this drama is confused about its own genre but oh well. Maybe there will be a good Korean dramedy one day

I was trying to figure out why I can’t seem to get into this drama or the character even though I quite like the actors.
And my biggest problem with this drama is that it can’t seem to decide whether it wants to be a comedy or a tragedy. One drama can be both, of course, but not at the same exact moment. A director would have to be a true master to balance the two. But in Queen on Tears the supposed emotional scenes lack impact and don’t make you feel.. well.. anything because you can’t quite figure out if what the characters say and feel should even be taken seriously. Should you feel bad for them of brush it off as a joke. And you can tell the actors have a hard time figuring this out too.
Maybe I was expecting to much from a romantic kdrama lol
I think it might have worked with a different director who knows what he’s doing and how to balance the contrasting emotional tones. But I will be skipping this one, sorry. Sadly, it feels like a failed dramedy attempt

This had so much potential… The ML and his acting was the only good thing about this drama
