I went to find out what they’re talking about. And there it was, just brief - ep. 14, 24:26 mark. It’s an…
He had a situation where he attacked a fellow actor verbally when Cheng Yi's poor acting was apparent in Heroes. He was brutal to the female lead during the filming of Love and Redemption, causing her to begin crying during a public gathering to promote the show, and she was unable to stop herself from all the anguish she endured from working with him, and he just stood there, doing nothing. The same actor he attacked in the show Heroes, which eas filmed many years later, was the leading man in the female leads next show, My Sassy Princess, who took good care of her onset, and she decided after her experience with him that she would continue with her career, after almost quitting all together after working with Cheng Yi, the demon. He has left a long trail of damage on most sets he has worked on, and I say that loosely, as I don't deem him worthy of describing him as working.
Let’s be real — actors are human, and Cheng Yi works under intense pressure with crazy-long hours. Holding a script was a blooper, yes, but that’s on the production team, not him. One mistake doesn’t erase his talent or professionalism. Cut him some slack.
Ahhh, so that’s why the ML’s scared of dogs, mystery solved! Add the role reversal, and now we’re in for some real fun. The the double standards of these immortals… whew. Preaching about chaos and justice while scheming to keep their power... basically our politicians at work, just with fancier robes 😂. These two eps of flashbacks were definitely needed to lay out the background, and since this is a mini drama with limited episodes, it’s the clearest and most practical way to get that across.
And that neck-biting-against-the-pillar moment, blood conveniently invisible👀, gave me full-on Vampire Diaries flashbacks. Drinking from the beloved, a trope older than time, yet somehow still recycled like it’s fresh 😂. At this point, I don’t know if I’m watching high fantasy or a comedy skit in xianxia cosplay, but either way, I’m entertained!
