Cooking up world-changing ambition
Replying to Xiang83 Nov 10, 2025
Person Zhang Zi Feng
I hope the beautiful theme song for the movie 《花漾少女杀人事件》is a decent consolation of sorts:…
You're welcome. This fine lady is the only actress under the age of 30 that I'm a fan of, whereby I place her within the same category as Gong Li and Lin Ching-hsia and several other actresses including Kathy Chow: She doesn't need romance to carry a script, she has a very nuanced riveting acting range, and she's one of the few actresses who can act alongside or in opposition with good to great male co-stars of any age and is so naturally comfortable with them.

She'll give a fantastic performance opposite Mark Chao. So far no release date D:

When I watched "The Shadow's Edge" in the cinema and saw how she acted opposite Tony Leung, I was very impressed. He is a strong scene-stealer, and she held her own. It was an exchange full of suspense, and she nailed it.

Like I've always said, FAKE PRINCESS/woo-is-me girl has ALWAYS been the TYPE that valves status and has a ego/pride…
This is a discussion page. People give their views, and civil discussion is fine.

I wrote two posts in reply to Enigma05's post about PTSD, to include:

{PTSD was first known as "shell shock" from the after-effects of artillery shelling such as shockwaves, especially for soldiers during and after World War I. Shell shock was PTSD + TBI (traumatic brain injury). PTSD indirectly replaced shell shock as a diagnosis in 1983.}

And here's my view about Tang Lici's view on romance in this drama this far, 28 episodes in: He's in love with A-Shui as much as he has non-platonic feelings for Fang Zhou: Zero

That said, the way the drama has been executed, people can find subtext to ship because it's all been artfully done, rightfully for fanservice. There is nothing invalid about my view either.

When A-Shui tried to feed blood to Tang Lici so as not to allow Ms Hong to see and why, I included in a much earlier summary. I didn't see any romance, as much as a necessity and A-Shui being intelligent as she has been all along.

Shen Langhun is simply getting Tang Lici to realise a different way of looking at A-Shui and things, but by no means is he advocating for Tang Lici to get together with A-Shui nor implying anything romantic. He just wants Tang Lici to realise that everybody has different ways of living, and how one chooses to live may not be seen as positive or beneficial by another, but that view could be wrong.

You should consider to quit using Capslock when giving your negative views about Chong Zhunji, because it comes across as shouting or immature sniping.

2 Best scenes in dat episode for me - 1 is Baishu being abandoned and this Xue Fu🤭
I wish there was a bonus BTS/short video of Bai Shu and AI Mi: How Xiao Xuefu ended up being with Xue Xianzi instead of Shui Duopo

Thanks for sharing. My friend plays Gu Qin, and she is offended by how the casts abuses the instrument…I reminded…
That user tends to share first on their bilibili account, followed by their youtube account. It was the same for Coroner's Diary and all other music. They will do so at some point :)

You can use the blanket for episodes 35 and 36 of SaB. I'll hope a towel will suffice for WoF.

I already prepared a towel for Chi Yun's ending. I cannot be preparing one for Tang Lici as well, otherwise I'll have to sacrifice a blanket...

It is! Him at doing stunts/wirework, and Cheng Yi with sword scenes. Impressive work.
Whoops. I don't think this ballet segment is available on Youtube but in the meantime, enjoy multiple loops of Luo Yunxi's wirework in this video short!

As a guzheng player, I can feel her pain. Hope this is a suitable salve for her.

I just watched this episode. I love seeing her on-screen. She always adds something and never lets you down with…
Her performance where she holds the tension with Leo Yunxi is definitely noticed. Especially with minimal eyeliner, her eye-acting is laudable. Portraying inner conflict and more- This is the kind of nuancing that will make me a fan of her, at some point. They are matching wits and he has to win over her compassion. There's also that nostalgic TVB feel in her getup and portrayal, which is also being mentioned on Weibo via multiple posts using hashtag #艾米水龙吟造型古早TVB味# (I share two of many posts):

I reckon we all need something stress-free at this point, given how the story is going to advance XD

I would enjoy seeing Chi Yun and Shen Langhun give their takes on what Luo Yunxi said. Chi Yun will say something super-funny but also possibly surprising, and Shen Langhun would say something profoundly simple yet deeply touching.

Thanks for the translation! My brain is fried from 2 episodes of STTD3 and too much paperwork today.

You might enjoy the calligraphy in episode 27 :D

Wait so she's not the princess? I'm confused.
I gave you a reply as per your PTSD comment. That might help you understand Liu Yan's motivations before episode 27.

PTSD was first known as "shell shock" from the after-effects of artillery shelling such as shockwaves,…
In episode 23, Liu Yan's behaviour is absolutely incorrigible and at that point from my POV, a merciful quick death is not what he deserves. Alen Fang's performance here is spot-on. It's creepy in a different way from when Liu Yan was convincing Qiaoyi Qiankun, but no less disturbing.

We can see he's already inflicted some form of physical torture on her, and he has used a bug on her. In his disgusting words to Zhong Chunji, he attacked her self-worth and achievements, twisted her achievements and motives to become something completely untrue, and basically tried to foster/ strengthen Imposter Syndrome within her. He wants her to self-destruct in self-loathing at some point, and he tries to destroy the decency that he sees in her. And who says she willingly went along with whatever he wanted to do to her? She wanted to live.

To twist the knife further inside her heart, he kindly takes food and places it in front of her, as if serving her. He wants to use her to kill Tang Lici. He also wants Tang Lici's friends to self-destruct and kill themselves, so Tang Lici can feel the pain he feels as he himself self-destructs but he himself can barely cope with (except by coming up with twisted ways to make Tang Lici suffer).

You know what I found myself really thinking about in the last few episodes with the war and whatever that ZCJ…
PTSD was first known as "shell shock" from the after-effects of artillery shelling such as shockwaves, especially for soldiers during and after World War I. Shell shock was PTSD + TBI (traumatic brain injury). PTSD indirectly replaced shell shock as a diagnosis in 1983.

I like what you have pointed out about Zhong Chunji and PTSD. Lying can be a symptom or coping mechanism as a survival strategy, when someone is suffering from PTSD. Lying can perpetuate a cycle of fear and shame, so as not to experience rejection. I'll put the rest of what I'm saying about Zhong Chunji since episode 23 under spoilers in my next comment:

Xue Xiang Zi is such a mood! 🤣🤣🤣
Xue Xianzi is always missing his cue. He cracked me up in episode 27 too XD
Replying to Enigma05 Nov 9, 2025
Is anyone from here watching Blemish Flaw?
Episode 1 isn't catching me at this moment, but I believe it's the mood I'm in and nothing to do with the drama. I'll try again when all episodes are out, since I also like Wang Duo's acting. Right now between 2023 wuxia parody "Egg and Stone" plus possibly Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty 3:To Chang'An (very proper wuxia stuff there!) and of course WoF, it's a lot on the plate. Have you watched "Twelve Letters"? 12 episodes, 45 minutes each. Modern drama.
