Is it explicitly stated or did it have any proof that it was ai? If so I'd like to see it.
While it's good to criticize the use of generative AI to protect artists, we shouldn't be too quick to claim everything is ai, this can end up doing the opposite and discredits artists for their work. I rewatched the intro and there are no distortions and inconsistencies that come with ai generation. An intro with this level of quality and caliber, would most definitely have mistakes ESPECIALLY for the length that it is.
I'm glad they're opposing it. I don't want to see AI in dramas or in any art forms at all. the problem with humans is they abuse every single thing. Most things can be use for good or neutral stuff but no we're gonna abuse it, infringe on rights, collect unnecessary data for selling, kill all forms of creativity by humans and also kill jobs while we're at it
So great to see him finally get more recognition after years of hard work. I've seen him in nearly a dozen dramas over the years, including a bunch of short-length dramas where he plays the ML. He has a magnetic presence, making it difficult to loathe even his problematic, red-flag characters. Stand By Me and The Maid are his best short-length works, though I personally also enjoyed Taste of Love.
This article and another one about the way he prepares for a role really make me respect Deng Kai as an actor and as a person. He sounds like such a serious man who doesn't want to be just another pretty face. I wonder how many other actors read negative reviews so they can improve.
I've really liked him in other roles (The Maid, Ruan Xiaofeng's Royal Love Quest) so it's nice to see him finally getting the attention he deserves.
Wow, I had no idea he was this thoughtful and dedicated. I don't watch many C dramas and just assumed he was a big star already. It's heartwarming to think he finally made it after clearly being so passionate and working so hard. He made me unable to dislike Qi Min even when I wanted to hate him. He was def a character that made an impression.
