geechoo

because it's airing simultaneously on cable and it neeeds to catch up to the web schedule

I am sooo tired of white hair man and his angst that he decides to release on QQ for no reason whatsoever. People who ship this pair need help

Also one of the reasons white hair man/QQ pairing is annoying is because they're just acting out their own S&M subplot that doesn't seem to have anything to do with anything else that's happening lol like can you imagine my whiplash going from FL & her mountain team to ML & his army and then we get these two just randomly kissing under water like wut

honestly it was worth it for the acting and visuals lol

I know the director likes using snow for mood but it's getting ridic how long this winter is lol

yeah the contrast between XZ and YZ isn't really shown as well in the drama. he's a lot ruder in the novel.

whoa this comment section completely blew up. I agree his comment was racist but imo it's more ignorance because that kind of comment gets thrown around a lot in China (I'm Chinese). I hope he learns because his dramas air interntionally now too.

However, I do want to clarify that post of "misogynist" comments from that reddit post isn't accurate. he has never been called misogynist in China. he has a pretty good rep there. he does however have obsessive antis who like to take interviews out of context.

some of these are out of context tbh he's targeted a lot by antis on chinese forums and they like to take screenshots of his interviews and leave out certain sentences

also does anyone think the new villain guy (or boy.. because he looks about 12 lol) is hilariously overacting? he kind of reminds me of a cartoon villain with how much he was doing with his expressions

tbh the argument feels awkward because XZ/YZ's character is a lot nicer in the drama than the novel. In the novel, he's a straight up asshole to the point that I don't get why FL would like him. so their fight/breakup/him forcing himself on her makes more sense in the novel because he'd do something like that lol

tbh the plot is kind of slow and I'm not usually into political plots but I'm kind of distracted by the pretty faces lol the director keeps shooting close ups of the numerous hot actors and it's distracting. even the older guys are hot lol

y'all that scene where Yan Zhen emerges from the shadows into the light to face the assassin??? omg I need ALL the edits of that scene. it was PERFECT

bro I feel like the director has a crush on him because some of the camera angles legit make him look godly

nah I don't believe this melon. it was invented by antis on douban. imo ZJY doesn't suit historical dramas.

director is Yi Jun again (director of Overdo). I feel like linghe really likes to work with the same people lol

if the Mar 6th release date is real then I think we'll start seeing promo material towards end of Feb *____*

it's been almost 2 years since Linghe last aired a costume drama! he only had two modern dramas last year

Yes! The "CP" fans of this drama is not normal lol they have some bizarre resentment towards linghe even though linghe has nothing to do with their drama and they keep comparing everything their CP does to linghe and ZJY (his lancome co-model) which is even more bizarre.

anyways, I think linghe's team knows by now which is why they put out the notice of lawsuit and specifically named her fans. I don't think we'll see anymore interactions between linghe and her anymore, which is good.

When is the iqiyi & tencent conference being held? I really want to see a trailer for Overdo. It's weird that it already passed censorship but we still have no trailer lol

speaking of her, it's been really annoying how much Linghe has been used to market her new drama. I've never seen this kind of marketing before lol when linghe's dramas air, he never drags unrelated parties onto weibo hot searches. over the past 2 months, linghe keeps being connected to her and her costar and it's getting so tiring.

I don't think he is here. He's one of ML's companions. I think the villain is played by SML (Gu Zi Cheng)

lol I'm not even going to reply to that comment down there but I hate how foreign fans like to bring stuff from weibo with no background context. I keep seeing twitter users talk about linghe's fandom being awful but honestly, they don't understand the context at all. C-walnuts are overprotective because linghe used to get sooo much hate from larger fandoms when he was less famous. Now that he has fans, they're just fighting back against the people who used to attack him.

for example, the billing issue. linghe only debuted 5 years ago. it's understandable that he didn't get top billing for his earlier work but back then on Chinese forums, the fans of some of his female costars (like BL, ZJM, YSX etc) would mock him and call him 赘婿, which is a mocking term to degrade him. All because he agreed to be 2nd billing as a newbie. So don't tell c-walnuts to not ask for good treatment for Linghe because no one ever stood up for him when he had no fans.

I've followed Linghe since Cang Lan Jue so I know all the hate he's gone through over the years.
