pretty sure it's fake rumors again lol iqiyi has a zombie historical drama that just passed review so they will probably air drop that one.

good things so far: production (no blurry filter is a huge plus for me) and scale looks grand.

bad things so far: the wigs are distracting especially the ugly bangs

Dylan's acting is kind of stiff in this. He kind of has this default "scrunch his eyebrows" look going on all the time. Maybe the role is a bit too mature for him. I'm also not buying that his character is supposed to be older than Bai Lu because he clearly looks younger lol

Dylan does have an accent (Sichuan accent) but imo his biggest problem is his line reading is very slurred. I'm kind of surprised you managed to pick up the difference without understanding Mandarin lol

still too early. this was always rumored to air during CNY break (early 2024)

I didn't watch Destined, what happened to that drama? I think it had high streams in China

I just want ZLH to have a good character again lol MJTY was his most mainstream lead role so far and it is a terrible way to be introduced to a wider audience lol I liked him so much as ChangHeng in LBFAD and he was very good playing different characters there. Now because of one drama (MJTY) and bad character, people are calling him a bad actor :/

bruh he put chen xing xu through it in that drama. I thought he was handsome in GMP but all the unflattering angles in TSL.. :/

so how is the male lead character? I have ptsd from mjty because zlh's character in that drama was kind of.. dumb lol I want him to have a good character

I'm honestly confused why this director is so in demand. I haaate his weird use of angles and obsession with blinding everyone with lights.

Yu Zheng's dramas always have poor costuming and wigs lol the male lead's wig is especially bad.

doesn't the other currently airing drama with Zhou Ye also have a reincarnation plot? how did they bypass it?

honestly once I found out this was airing on youku, I dropped expectations lol youku is probably the cheapest out of the 3 large platforms (tencent, iqiyi). they also have a tendency to use the same white filter on all their dramas.

Should start filming anyday now. I think the leads are already trying out costumes.

does anyone have the same feeling as me? everytime the camera goes from HZ to QXX, the latter looks so.. bright? lol it's almost like they've added a glowing filter over him. this is especially apparent in episode 3

actually I think they chose a voice actor that sounds a lot like him

I wish LingHe's wig was better lol his hair line is so high up that it makes his face look too long at some angles. he still looks good and very young (prob cuz this was shot a while ago)

ngl this drama makes me wish Heaven's Official Blessing could air :/ I wanna see his Hua Cheng!

ohh this actually looks good? the visual effects are better than I imagined

kind of excited for this lol hope it's as good as Blood of Youth. sometimes it's nice to have non-romance cdramas

pretty much confirmed. the posted & trailer is dropping today to announce release date.

actually most people are worried for ZJM because she has only acted in one historical drama in her whole career and her styling in that was .. not good. so it led to everyone saying she doesn't suit historical dramas.
