geechoo

I meant it's like that in the novel too lol FL reciprocates ML's love VERY late into the novel. I think towards the last 20 chapters or so.

tbh it's following the novel's progression. it's a reverse harem so the romance is divided between the 3 guys rather than 1v1.

honestly modern romcoms should never be more than 20 episodes long. OFL is sooo draggy it's ridiculous.

he recently had a drama with Zhou Ye where he was the male lead. the premise was actually kind of similar to SOKP.

wait so the schedule still hasn't been updated? are we getting new episodes tomorrow or not?

he dubbed himself in this drama and MJTY, however this one was done in a studio afterwards while MJTY iirc was dubbed on set. I think he made his voice deeper here because he's supposed to be the older character of the main cast while in reality, he was only 24 when he filmed this and his actual voice is kind of boyish.

which episode did that first scene air? the one where he's drawing on her neck

yess the ahhhh part is so .. somber? and whimsical. it goes so well with xie wei for some reason like in the snow scene in episode 18

does anyone else absolutely loove the Zhou Shen ost? I think all my fav scenes have that song playing in the bgm lol

they had to make changes because ZZ isn't reincarnated in the drama while the novel he is. it wouldn't pass censors if they kept the original.

when are they updating the broadcast schedule

tbh this drama is proof that character > everything else because imo ZLH is wayyy more attractive in MJTY and his acting was more natural in that drama too but no one liked him there because his character was boring lol morally grey characters will always be more popular

I think it's the wig. the wig in SoT was so unflattering.

honestly Zhang Zhe is such a bland character. On Chinese forums, they were hyping this character so much before he had any scenes because he's a "白月光" type of role (idk how to translate into English, but it's akin to an idealized figure in a person's life) but so far, he's just been very frustrating. don't get me wrong, I don't root for any of the male characters as romantic interests because imo Yanlin & Xiewei are both red flags (YL more so in the prior life) but at least they aren't boring like Zhang Zhe. for me, being boring is the worst crime for a fictional character.

actually now that I think about it, ChangHeng in LBFAD was also a similar type of 白月光 character (played by ZLH interestingly enough lol) but at least in that drama, they gave him a growth arc that made you root for him as a person.

can't believe all these winter scenes were filmed in August when Hengdian is like 40 degrees D: the actors are all wearing so many layers too

there's rumors that IQIYI is going to air A Journey to Love on the 23rd. That's a big budget historical drama that will take most of the ad placement on IQIYI's front page. The leads are scheduled to start promo so the rumor does seem realistic. I wonder if that's why SOKP's schedule was adjusted? I have a feeling they will update 2 episodes per day until the 20th and then drop the last 10 episodes at once on the 21st.

he doesn't really act like a younger brother lol maybe that's why their interactions are cute.

the problem is there's already been precedence set with previous dramas. if they air this one, then the shelved dramas of Fan Bingbing, Deng Lun, Yuan Bingyan etc will need to air too.

have they started filming?

xie wei = 27/28 years old
yan lin = 20 years old
ning = 18 years old
