can you guys recommend a drama similar to this fake marriage?
"Are you the one" The plot is very similar to this one. The ML is a lord and connected to the royal family, his enemies "wife" (so he thinks) loses her memories and mistakes him for her husband (the wife is a highly skilled assassin). He basically build this whole fake life for her in a small village and his wife loves him so much just like how Chang Yu loves Yan Zheng selflessly because she believes he took care of her when she was sick and even starts a buissness so he can thrive.
The male lead in this is also a general and has to leave for war, she follows him because she's so scared for him and worried sick, she even bitch slaps him because he thinks he's "High and Mighty" leaving for war when he's weak (He's the general lmao), and he basically has to keep changing out of his general armor to regular armour so she doesn't suspect anything
It's a really good show but angsty because of the lie, production quality is really good too. The only issues people had at the time was that it took so long for them to reveal themselves to each other. Happened in ep 17/18 which isn't that bad tbh.
The dynamic is very interesting espcially when she gets her memories back and he can sense it, so it' like a tikcing time bomb
It's also really funny because he's soooooo committed to being her husband and she treats him like they've been married for years. He can't falter at all.
I highly recommend another show called Legend of Shenli, it also did really well when it came out, but not sure if a lot of people on here have watched it since it's a Xian Xia
It's forbidden love, and the FL is a really powerful general, and ML is a god, she falls in battle, and the man freezes the seas just to find her, he finds her and has to heal her himself, which is like the coin scene lowkey, and another scene where they have to forge their souls together??? (I can't remember) but it's similar to the coin scene as well.
Not comparing these 2 dramas at all, just letting you know!
Maybe it's just me who doesn't care that he lied for so long? The bigger a lie is, the harder it is to say the truth, especially when a situation doesn't call for it; you basically have to force it out because the right time will never come, The marquis is chilling with his wife in camp. Why would he think to destroy that by revealing it? and it's just the title that changes, not himself, you know? So it's realistic how hesitant he was. Having to wait for the episodes was the only agonizing part
I also like the parts in the camp where they were husband and wife; it felt so natural as opposed to in Li'an, when they were still a little bit awkward.
Chang Yu fries me so bad, I was laughing so hard when she told the other soldier she drugged her husband. She was like, "I drugged him. May I go off to war now?" 🥺🥺🥺 ridiculously cute!
Okay can someone explain the significance of a guy telling a girl to wait for him to come back (from war) or a girl saying she'll wait for the guy's return (from war) in chinese dramas because I know it's not a simple phrase
In another drama, The Story of Minglan, the FL tells ML she'll wait for his return, and he smiled, then she said she didn't mean it that way ........
One thing I have to compliment about Zhang Linghe's acting in this is that you can feel the difference between Yan Zheng and the Marquis. He has this commanding presence even without doing much as the Marquis, so valiant even when he's not in armour, it's in his eyes, this invincible look.
But as Yan Zheng, he's so gentle, poised and regal all in one
It's such a small detail, I thought he did well, and I've never thought Zhang Linghe was good at nuanced acting beforehand
I'm re-watching the earlier episodes because I feel I watched them passively, and Chang Yu is so sweet and brave, I love her so much; she's always so selfless and continues to show up for the Marquis even though he has NOTHING. She has less but is still willing to provide for him financially and emotionally. Such a big heart.
CY blames herself as she think YZ is injured because of her. She wants to get the meat so her husband can recover…
Hmm someone said his name "JiuHeng" which means to think 9 times before taking action, maybe he has his reasons so we shall see. I don't think he ever thought she would replace him in battle
No I mean he usually doesn’t smile but he’s smiling because if the dog now 😭
Yes I feel like the characters are VERY different I can’t imagine someone saying otherwise.
I’ve watched every ZLH since MJTY except Generation to Generation, he’s always been a familiar face that I’ve watched but I’ve never been gagged by his acting (which is fine I’m not criticizing him) but he’s getting better and better and this one I’m very drawn too as well. Especially the emotional scenes.
Yes ao many names, girl Ling Buyi had like 5 names in LLTG and it was my first cdrama so I was so confused. I get who people are but sometimes I have to come back here and check the names
