The things in the novel didn't appear this way so the excuse for height difference can only be that the ML was…
Fair point. It is plausible at that point in time, but considering the leads spent years at the academy, it just feels weird that he can't tell them apart on other occasions. Later on, he has no problem recognising the FL as the real general from her mannerisms as well as her principals like righteousness and bravery. ;) If all things are equal, I can give them a pass, but the script is too loose and it just becomes symptomatic. Cheers! :)
I just wanted to note that they had to change a lot from the novel because of the Chinese censorship. Reincarnation…
I agree about the reincarnation aspect. I have made the same remarks in my other reviews. However, Chinese script writers have learn to work around that. There has been a number of high profile shows with soul/body swapping as their theme as well as time slip do-overs. I think in this case, they probably cut it out to keep the length/complexity down. It works but it changed the tone, for better or for worse. π
Sounds like interesting..Am picking up House,The Good Doctor and Dr Romantic if they were cramped in 9 Eps
Actually, not quite. :) It is closer to a detective story than House's medical diagnostic focus. She is more eccentric than The Good Doctor's ML but shares some traits. There is barely any romance, but the potential is there so nix on Dr Romantic, at least for now. I won't call it unique, but it is self contained. ;)
I gave it a 9 because I think any drama that breaks the straight-laced mould in k-dramas deserves a bonus point. J-dramas, on the other hand, are well known for being a bit naughty and kinky at times, but k-dramas much less so. ;)
6 min in and I want to go to the casting department and ask for a refund for the 2FL,she seem more suitable for…
I think Tian was a bit of a miscast. She is hot after a few hits so they just throw her into various roles and see if they can replicate earlier successes. The obvious danger is if they put her outside her comfort zone then nobody wins.
I swear this was a comment in the comments section that I kept updating as I moved along..then I looked at it…
Yes, I find Lusi did too much too quickly. Some shows felt like cash grabs. Upon reading the sorry tales with her agency, I do wonder how much is the doing of that mob. Nasty.
