laysure

i might be wrong but im pretty sure they were dubbed by other voice actor and im just not feeling it ☹️ will keep watching bc story seems interesting and got me interested in watching the movie and reading the novel as well

i mean he grew on me in best choice ever but i absolutely hate his character at first that i had to stop watching bc i just cant accept that he will be the end game for FL. as for as beautiful as you, i personally dont like the changes they made to 'saintify' him nor do i like the changes they made for the drama, i love the novel and i like how flawed his character is in novel compared to the person they made him in the drama hence im unable to enjoy the show and ofc dislike his character as well.

ofc variety is nice that's why he should be given more comedy roles like gu yanzhen. the ratio of his cold/stoic characters to his comedic characters are like 5:2. and by cold i dont actually imply completely cold character, eg him in she and her oerfect husband, he is not cold but at the same time not the kind of explosive character either, more like calm?

and at the end of the day it is not the matter of me liking or everyone else liking his character or not, this man has huge potential for comedy i just want to see him more in the genre.

i havent watch but i think it explain better why he fell for her in novel, nothing exactly happened after the kiss and it certainly not bc of the kiss, but it's her indifference, everything about her leaving, and attitude after rejected confessions that irritate him and he doent understand why he felt so. i feel like it just a moment of realisation where he unintentionally fell for her and he didnt realise it. he also realised he has always given her special privilege before in the name of her helping him chasing her friend, but privilege is still a privilege, basically her behaviour is far from what he has always looks in partner but he can accommodate her, it's this series of realisation imo. and also like with all his previous partner he is kind of calm, controlled but she makes him feel all extreme emotion after she start treating him like a proper boss. personally i really like the novel and even the embarassment i had for her in the beginning can easily be forgotten bc i always skip the part 😂 but i love reading his extreme emotion for her bc he doesnt understand why she irritate him so much at first

feel like i have seen so many representation of girl looking for partner in a drama, it would be more relatable if they stick with FL early characterisation in the novel, not looking for partner, forced to go to blind date. and i definitely prefer their first meeting after reunion in the novel than reuniting on matchmaking event.

love that the parents esp her mom are just chill parents who did not force her to go to blind date, love this changes compared to the novel but hey if her mother isnt forceful, then she wouldnt meet him again on blind date

he need to stop taking or they need to stop giving him cold male lead roles, he does it so well that most of the time it is annoying too see his character (as beautiful as you, best choice ever)

pls give him more comedy roles like gu yanzhen this man is made for comedy he excel in it and he does it so so well too, i know it also probably his sharp face that keep landing him cold guy character but gu yanzhen was iconic and i miss liking his character

i dont want to have high hopes but i love mayday so i do hope they made a "here after us" vibes for first frost too 🥹

i mean personally for me idt he was faking/hiding all his cheerfulness as he was potrayed in HL. i feel like his real personality is more like sarcastic chill indifferent guy but when we see in HL we more inclined to see him as comedic relief, but i definitely think it's a matter of POV and when combined with how we understand his character in TFF, you get new understand of what his character actually is.

idk if im explaining this right but basically when i first read HL novel i would view him as funny character but after reading first frost i would reevaluate my understanding of his character in HL novel, and intepret all his behaviours, talking and traits in TFF and compares with how he was written in HL. so basically, on my first read of HL i would find him funny, but on my second read i would read and imagine him saying all this stuffs in sarcastic, indifferent, witty kind of way.

maybe that's why i prefer if HL drama sang yan would retain more of sang yan chill character in TFF novel bc while i was always entertained by sang yan, i think he would never say and do all those stuffs in exaggerated kind of way as HL drama potrayed him. basically he is and never was a comedic relief, he is still the same as he is in both novel

baby sister and widowed refer to jia lin and xuyan right? i have not watched this but i think that was also pretty much how they were written in the original drama? (gentleman dignity) ofc i might be wrong bc it's been years since i watch it but i remember liking them out of all couple in the show so i kind of like want to watch this just for them

idk about this version but the original is totally not bl for me and i like it that way personally, it is fun to see pure friendship in a show, nothing against shipping but i think love between friendship is as precious as romantic love

same but i dont have any drama to watch and i'm kind of curious of what will happen, it is decent watch but not the kind of drama that i anticipated everyday, the last time i love a drama was the rise of ning tho i wasnt in it for the romance, just loving the plot

bc it is from adaptation, ahn hyoseop can act but he has act in 2 drama adapted from original source and i dont like his intepretation. i think he is good if the show is not based on anything. i personally had no issue with lee minho as YJH, ik many said he is a bad actor but i have seen him as doctor and assassin (if that was what his role in city hunter) and i think he was okay. he wasnt horrible and his acting was decent to me

im not seeing lee soohyuk as YJH and sometimes finding his acting stiff but heavy on siwan

i cant relate with the not feeling romantic chemistry comments bc their relationship are what i love and there were my IT couple in 2021 (along with zhou siyue and ding xian) everyone has different preference for the kind of love they like, and i like the kind of love mika and xing kelei had for each other. there were so many popular romantic drama that ppl swear has the best chemistry but i personally not feeling them bc it could get too cringe for me i would find myself suddenly making face bc i couldnt understand the sudden emotions in some other romantic drama. but the feelings i get from this is just right, the banters the development, i love it. maybe they act like friends for some, but certainly there are lover out there who also in this trope irl so it isnt too weird 😄

i think that's just the character she supposed to potray idk, try watching a romance of little forest, she played kind of like 'diva' character, idk if ppl think it's childish but i certainly dont, in fact that's kind of my fav character of hers

i think saying victor ma only suited for comedic roles might be a disservice to him, even if he think so, bc frankly i havent seen much of his show but i do think his acting talent can be explored more to see what other roles he capable in.

but simply put, this is different production not a sequel but spin off. and bc the novel is really popular & sang yan character itself is the most popular in the shared universe they cant use victor ma. there's a reason why victor ma got some lashing when they first revealed he played sang yan. and i dont think victor ma was ever considered bc of all the rumours of possible ML casting, there were never his name not even after HL aired and the casting rumour has exist since FF announced adaptation (late 2022 iirc) and the casting rumour gotta be one of melons that keep appearing and keep changing bc this is such a popular IP.

when HL first aired, first frost douyin team even took the time to comment that HL sang yan is not the same as FF sang yan, so it's obvious they already had other actor in mind. so they chose an actor that has both looks and acting talent with some reputation among gp (so far his recent drama since 2022 has good amount of views). easily said, they want the drama to be successful. ofc some would still debate that bai jingting do not really fit sang yan look, but out of every sang yan rumours, his acting is the best imo.

probably intl fans dk much about BJT and still prefer VM, but at least in China BJT is more well known for his acting. and for chinese production team, while intl recognition is great, it is always more profitable for them if the drama is successful in mainland. also, sang yan character in first frost and HL are different. sang yan is more like sarcastic cold and indifference than being funny as he was shown in HL

thank god bc the audacity of him to ask song mo not to hurt his father already made me dislike him

guys, song mo father kill his wife right? but i wonder why would he kill her at this specific moment, is it bc jiang family has fallen?

i see so songmo will never stop pissing me off with his constant long for affection from his dumb father, you are a strong general you could literally escape the beating, hopefully this is the last scene bc if i see more of this longing idk if i can continue watching😭

i think you need to put a spoiler for this 😂 but thank you! is this the same empress who was beside the emperor when he fainted after knowing Duke Ding has dead? the aunt of song mo's friend? the evil eunuch must be under her right? so the emperor knew from early his wife is the mastermind? im sorry for asking again, prince qing is the prince that song mo help in his first life to take the throne and later betray song mo, correct?

can you pls spoil me about the mastermind that kill duke ding and why the majesty cover it up? i was thinking thr eunuch but why go to that extent to protect that eunuch
