Under the skin was never a BL adaptation

Was Ashui really Fang Zhou's sister in the novel? Or did they just add it in here to make her character closer to TLC

Ohk ...thanks a lot

Because Liu Yan thinks that TLC killed their master Fang Zhou

So does that mean in the novel Ashui and liu yan were a couple and feng feng feng was their child?

Chi Yun Calling TLC as tang Húli reminds me of Fang Duobing calling LLH as Lao Húli 😅

Thanks a lot .....hopeful to hear that

Okay , thanks for the clarification

Okay good to hear that but I am still skeptical about that since TLC and A Shui had a kiss scene and the ML seems protective of her in the ost mv ....and in the character relationships that someone mentioned below, it states that Ashui is the confidant of TLC...

But legend of zang hai and guardians of dafeng are pretty much two sided romantic dynamic

Same with me guys....I also keep digging through mdl to find a non romance drama with friendship, brotherhood or sisterhood themes but such dramas are very rare....hard to find with good production and stories......
I usually try to watch some dramas where romance is not mentioned in the tags but end up dropping it because they do contain romance somewhere or the other.....
The novel of this drama definitely doesn't have any romantic connotation for the main character so from day 1 this drama was announced I was very hopeful, that this will be like MLC coz of same author but I after I came across the big budget and production, I knew it isn't going to be simple friendship drama devoid of romance coz big productions like otter will never gamble in a project without romance so they added slight romance between Tang Lici and A shui' character I guess which was unrequited in the novel....I am so disappointed after learning this fact...but I'll try to watch it regardless...if romance is minimal, one sided, unreciprocated or avoidable , then it will be worth a watch otherwise, I 'll have to drop

Ohk got it....thanks a lot for the explanation 😊

If that's the case then why does BHH falls in love with SMY... aren't they cousins practically...because both are from Su Family

Even Chat gpt understands better than humans do .......
Such profound and heart-wrenching explanation....💗

Wen Liyan portrays how unrequited love doesn't have to be a weapon to hurt others but the remedy to save people and let go to let her return to where she belongs safely and happily

I didn't knew chinese directors and screenwriters have the potential to depict such beautiful sismance story without the addition of romance with male characters as subplot. Really loved the drama.....it kinda gives gl vibes but I prefer it being platonic.
I loved the character of Wen Liyan, he is truly a guardian of our CP.
This drama deserves a lot of recognition, it is amongst one of those few dramas that don't deviate from their original plot to please or target a certain group of audience . Also this drama is perfect epitome of how Women build their empire and chase towards their sovereignity

Strangely...the one above called the lil interactions between XG & WX as skin ship......which we all know isn't even close to what it actually means.....and if even it's there then why not would you expect....is skinship supposed to be present only in romantic relationship and not friendship ones?

Exactly,...my point...I don't understand why some people like the one above are so exasperated when the same sex characters are shipped in a friendly way , they shove us into believing that fanon ships are nothing but the thirst of homosexual fetishizers that confabulates their so-called canonic plot & relationship ....and there is no point in arguing with them....I mean why it's wrong to ship characters ... aren't there romantic pairings in every novel even if the writer didn't mean it in the romantic way....do all the romance dramas have the same canon ship dynamic as and how the way writer described it.... isn't it common to see more chemistry and more depth of relationship in the drama than in novel...when it can be done for romance then why not bromance
And it's strange to see someone getting worked up when I mentioned censorship, which is a real thing in China ...does it even need evidence ? Is it not the default reason which is holding back the dramas focussed on same-sex dynamic while a few of them that managed to release was only after the deletion of scenes which marked the significance of main characters into each others life because they feared it might be always interpreted in erotic sense and robbed us of pure platonic friendship.
And true to my knowledge, DMBJ is indeed the most popular grave robber series not solely coz of main plot but also because of bromance and camaraderie serving as the subplot....their genuine friendship and ready to die-for-each-other dynamic makes us attached to their characters even more ......

Yes I did, it had good bromance

Some of them don't exist in the novel but others that did existed were indeed shot but still cut down coz I have seen those in reuters
