I can just picture ZZH wearing one of those crazy smiles, like when he pokes fun at GJ, on the day he released that song. - So you thought JunZhe left the stage? Think again!
So he has this effect not only on GJ?;) I've seen those memes... No commentXD

Lol 'Zero fox Given' with a cute fox drawing is my work mug. I've used it strategically as a non-verbal cue in meetings before;) Great gift for colleagues that are leaving – helps them start new jobs with the right attitude:D

LOL I thought it started with the Disney-princess-style twirling at the concert. But how did it spiral so far in a week for his birthday display to read 'Princess Han', I have no idea:D I did see a lot of comments on how radiant he looks recently and his 'no fox given' behaviour;)

I've personally complained about it multiple times here:D It's like you've been making this beautiful picture out of puzzle pieces and then by the end you get stuck with a few that just don't fit however you turn them. You can still guess from the context what's supposed to be there, but the view is somewhat ruined;) That's just how this series is for me - it engages your brain for the first 20+ episodes, then at ep31 you switch off your brain and enjoy the feels and visuals:)

I swear every time I step away from this fandom for a few days, things are getting wilder and wilder! I thought everything is gonna die down after the concert and I'm gonna naturally float away from this circus. But when I logged in yesterday to send some birthday wishes, the first thing I saw was that romantic video of a blue trashcan rolling down the street in search of its light in red:D Then the new ZZH song?! Did he intentionally troll us with these lyrics? I mean, he must have known where people's minds were gonna jump to... I guess common laopo was not enough for our A-xu, so he has been upgraded to a princess (公主)?! Then all the concert crack videos and the backstage moments I missed – the uncles and the 'papapa'... What. Even. Was. That? If there was a vote for the MVP of the concert, it would've been a really hard pick for me...
and that's just the tip of the iceberg... I need to quit this fandom before my brain melts;)
But on a more serious note, I do hope (for a hundredth time maybe) that things continue in this fun, creative and positive manner. I mean living in the mountains was my retirement plan, but I'm sitting here laughing at the red and blue pens lying next to each other on my windowsill so...;)
I'm sure everything was shared here already, but I believe GJ's corruptive influence and 'bu man ni shuo' moments deserves a re-share;)

LOL this is one of the funniest exchanges I have read on this page:D
There's some tragedy, but the main couple are together at the end and happy. Be sure to watch ep37, which is a short epilogue - it's behind a paywall but there are links posted in recent discussions. Enjoy:)

LOL was there a single interview of GJ recently where he didn't mention ZZH in some form??? Agree on the teamwork. From the snippets of his earlier acting I've seen, it looks like GJ pulled Zhehan out of his comfort zone a bit in return.

True, and I think he's clever about using it. I've started scheming how to time my next China trip so I can go to his concert:)

Always happy to spread the joy:) It's been a Huo Zun appreciation week for me too. I've been playing this on repeat since monday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRF-XVMZgY8 Honestly, I don't know if it's because of his natural musicality, or that he sounds more lyrical than sentimental, but somehow he always hits all the right emotions in my heart...

I'm not gonna argue the point, cause that's personal. But I have to say I'm very surprised by the comparison, cause to me those two shows couldn't be more different. WOH is my new comfort show. Something I see myself rewatching often when I'm feeling down. TU on the other hand is more like a Greek tragedy exploring themes around our flawed human nature. Although I love the story, TU was very difficult for me to get through emotionally, especially the parts around genocide and dehumanizing people. It pulled at my emotions so hard, I had to go running a few times to shake it off. WOH in comparison is pure fluff and giggles to me:)
Maybe this comparison never occured to me, because the moment I saw that red eye-shadow in ep1, I was like Dongfang Bubai the second! WKX as Invincible Asia, just with a fan instead of needles, wouldn't leave my mind:D So that's where I find a lot of similarities with the plot.

This is a depressing read. No wonder there's so much drama and toxicity. Curious to see if WOH will influence some new practices in the future - like more varied projects getting funds or business people backing off to give teams more creative freedom. As we say in my country, good product defends itself:)

Then kudos to the team for giving them enough reason to conveniently ignore it;)

Why? Because it's dangai? Well, luckily it's also Wuxia:) I saw there's also an article and everyone's wondering why intl fans like it so much^..^

Sorry, I can't find it now:( But I'm sure I saw a picture of the board with additional sentence about sun and sunset snow maybe... Ech, I've scrolled through too many things yesterday...

I totally get it. Felt the same when I finished last month. I'd love to see them working together for the next few years. But now I feel like it's better to be left wanting more, than to get disappointed later. Cause we don't know how season 2 would've turned out with so much pressure on them now. They had fun shooting this and it shows, so I'm happy with what we got:)

Sorry, that was just a silly joke about the concert and after everyone having fun shipping the main actors and each other. If you scroll down you'll see many comments about it. Here's a video of memorable moments from the concert:https://mobile.twitter.com/lldszd/status/1389849275870310403

Oh, I see so much of this in WOH now. Like some looks and smiles they share, it's pure ZZH/GJ:)

End of an era for sure:)

Nope, but there's a sequel about the actors being written by the cast on social media right now:D

I think it's really a satisfying glimpse into where their choices have led them - Still breathing, still close to their kid, still teaching and disagreeing on the method, still play-fighting, and still getting lost in their own little world and ignoring everyone else ...like the other pair we all know and love;) Just wish YBY would have made it into the epilogue, but I can imagine him keeping close, or a close eye, on them for a while:)
