I see that you’ve watched 'Hidden Love' in the past and gave it a rating of ⒐5. 'Hidden love' wasn't casted…
They watched all episodes of the 2016 SK drama "Bring It On Ghost" and gave it 10/10.
That was a 16-year-old FL with many kissing scenes and a 27-year-old ML. It's not a minor conflict. @daphchan is a full-on hypocrite pretending to be a "moral justice warrior".
I love this plot but I can think of more than 10+ actresses that could have done this role instead of Ai Mi..but…
She scored the highest in the chemistry read test, amongst all the actresses who auditioned after the original FL had issues. If this bothers you at some point, it's fine not to watch.
Those of you complaining about the character being a minor—get over it. She's 17 in a fictional story, and films…
I would like them to complain to Sofia Ford Coppola for casting 17-year-old Scarlet Johansson with Bill Murray in the 2003 movie "Lost In Translation". How dare she film a romance comedy about human connection, love and humour, with a seventeen-year-old, and she wanted Scarlet Johansson for the role!
Where were these people, when Nastassja Kinski was fighting for an apology from Wim Wenders for making her have topless scene at the age of thirteen in his 1975 movie "Wrong Move"? She only got justice recently.
"moral justice warriors" coming from any countries where there are issues with their own industry should actually fix those first, instead of virtue-signaling about an actress who scored the highest for the chemistry screen reads amongst all the actresses who auditioned, after the original FL ran into issues.
And if they have issues, take it up with the NRTA for approving the airing license of "Key to The Phoenix Heart" in less than three months, which is a record for a longform historical costume drama. Casting Ai Mi means they have an even-higher standard to uphold, because the laws of protection pertaining to minors such as her is strict. On one hand, people lambast the NRTA for being draconian. The NRTA allows smutty kisses or long kisses to get through in certain C-dramas. Do you see those of us who don't like PDA in C-dramas going on about current types of PDA being disgusting and not common to the Chinese tradition and saying such idol dramas should revert to no PDA? No. Hugs were a big deal in the 90s.
The NRTA commonly does hatchet jobs, such as "Archives: The Nanyang Mystery" when they sliced scenes of the two male leads caring for each other, and also sliced angles of what they didn't like for a hug.
Funny how the person you are replying to completed a South Korean drama starring a 16-year-old and a 27-year-old with lots of kisses (unlike this drama, which only has a forehead kiss), but is raining "moral outrage":
[ @daphchan ooh really, but look like you already watched *Bring It On ghost* and rated it 10 , wasn't kim so hyun was 16 and taec-yeon was 27 when they filmed and also had many kiss scenes. wasn't it disgusting?? ] -- Quote from part of my comment.
I'll never understand those who support romances with a minor and a almost 30yr old adult. I will be rating this…
If you want to understand @daphchan's full context of comments about KTTPH:
On the KTTPH article page, they also posted something very similar to what you are reading above.
!) They didn't respond to a query from a poster who asked them more than 2 days ago:
[ @daphchan ooh really, but look like you already watched *Bring It On ghost* and rated it 10 , wasn't kim so hyun was 16 and taec-yeon was 27 when they filmed and also had many kiss scenes. wasn't it disgusting?? ]
2) After I also asked @daphchan more than a day ago, finally an answer from them:
[ I just answered you in another post. I watched and rated that one years ago when i forgot to check the ages of the actors. Im not perfect. I now double check ages on these shows because of that show actually. I forgot it was still on that list. I barely recheck those lists. I would've never watched it if i knew. ]
@daphchan watched all the episodes of that SK drama and rated it 10/10, according to their watchlist.
3) Oh yes, another posted asked @daphchan:
{ I see that you’ve watched 'Hidden Love' in the past and gave it a rating of ⒐5. 'Hidden love' wasn't casted with a minor actor with an adult, yet the story was all about minor fell in love with adult. If you don't support minor with adult casting in romance, why do you even watched 'Hidden love'? I felt a little conflicts there. ]
ETA: They just deleted "Hidden Love" from their list of Completed Dramas! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's the entire context of their above comment. They are now on the page going to multiple viewers below, to give their view. The "moral justice warrior"- Pdffffft.
Does anyone know what records were shattered, apparently they hit 250M on the first day.
More than 229,000 screenings were recorded on 11 July, which is the highest number of opening-day screenings for a summer-season film in China's film history.
Total box office revenue surpassed 100 million RMB, within 27 minutes of opening.
At 6.31 pm on 11 July, "Kung Fu Soccer" grossed 200 million RMB:
Jokers are at it again! All episodes are rated low by haters! They hate with so much passion and have so much…
For me, I will express what I enjoy very much about the drama.
It always helps when we share and maximise the love :D
I'm not a HMH fan (yet), but I am very impressed with him here. I definitely appreciate his costuming here. And that armour! I prefer less makeup on actors and actresses and not ODing on filters, so we can best enjoy the expressions.
This is the drama I'd recommend people to watch, if new to HMH and they want a historical costume drama.
6 episodes in, Xiao Wuyi is already softening. Minute. Not obvious. His exchange in episode 5 with Xie Jiayu made me smirk. Watching it for me was like enjoying an entire banana split, finishing without realising, and wanting more XD
wtf with the above "Mephisto's Review " spamming boycottttttttt...
Mephisto goes to various pages to attack actresses, including any MDL news articles about actresses. They came to Ai Mi's page to spam after attacking the Cheng Xiao page, and I had a short exchange with them. They couldn't take my replies, so they blocked me.
Wouldn't be surprised if that one has a specific grudge.
Mdl is truly a crazy place bc you say something as simple, logical and easily understandable as "kids and…
Since you feel so strongly about it and labelling everyone you disagree with as "chatgpt-brained", you can first start by writing to the NRTA using their query submission form, on their website.
Please tell NRTA why NRTA is wrong for approving the airing license of "Key To The Phoenix Heart" within less than 3 months. From 5 November 2025 (filming wrapped) to 6 February 2026 being the approval date, not forgetting post-production editing needs at least two weeks or more within that duration: That's a record approval time for a historical costume drama. Maybe there are faster approval times for a longform historical costume drama. If so, let me know.
When Director Sofia Ford Coppola had her 2003 film "Lost In Translation" released, Scarlet Johansson was 17 when she filmed that romance-comedy movie. Sofia Ford Coppola wasn't thinking of sexualisation wrt romance. She wanted to tell a very different story about human connection being humour, love, and understanding.
"Key To The Phoenix Heart" wants to tell a story about emotional connection, wrt romance. BTW, there's this short Thai series named "Wu" that has finished airing, and many people who watched can see the chemistry is fire between two men. No kisses. No sexualisation. The chemistry is off the charts.
Some of my favourite Hindi movies are from more than 20 years ago, when chemistry was dependent on very good acting and not groping. Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol were on fire. Kajol is fabulous.
I actually don't like PDA in my C-Ent dramas, but I can understand different strokes for different folks, and everyone has a right to appreciate what they like. If IQiyi was so successful in their romance dramas, they wouldn't be in the dire financial straits they are now, after burning through hundreds of billions of yen in ten years.
"Lost In Translation" would never have been made, if people like you controlled the arts. Thanks for reminding me of what to be grateful for :)
It's a very engaging drama. There's war, politics, and engaging relationships.I posted about the production and…
Very tough choices. Norway and Argentina?!
There are fight scenes and battle scenes, but the politics and others aspects will have much more screentime. This is shot more akin to TVB style, and I enjoy it.
All the best!
You can wait two days and binge, otherwise your health might go. Very important to stay healthy.

When people express themselves in crudely-insulting fashions, a reply can be scathing.
Disagreeing civilly always works, provided both people are mature and rational :)
