tbf current cast is already posted by reliable source so it's more likely confirmed unless there are last minute changes. while previous rumoured cast was never posted i do suggest following cdramarumours on twitter bc they did not repeatedly posted melon cast like other acc, but only those that came from reliable sources and most of it are accurate.

probably the biggest letdown of the year. i do drop pretty much early, basically waiting the story to finish but i just never pick it up again. the pacing is quite slow, time went fast so long for me to finish an episode. probably the thing that annoy me the most is all the searching and we still don't know who is behind it in the end? that's actually so stupid like idc open ending but to have an ending where the previous question was never answered just make me angry lol, and i'm confident we will never get season 2 so i refuse to pick it up again, this kind of play from the director doesnt worth my time.

love the whole cast performance tho especially my shuxin, she slay her assassin role so much. she proves again that she is such a good actress! the cinematography is really pretty and ugh i just love everything beside the plot lol. and by the plot, i mean the execution, and how they just left the most important part out till the end

i love this novel too much so im gonna lower my expectation about the adaptation, especially with the addition of second leads, i love all the actors announced and i'm personally happy with all the cast but i don't like when adaptation make big changes from good source of media. but i do have faith in bai jingting script choice.

i wish first frost would also have donghua because i think that will give the most justice to the adaptation. i was just imagining bai jingting in school clothes and now im worried lol, i hope they wouldnt make him nerd and do make him look like tough cool guy!

she has always been good in movies and i personally do not watch her drama not bc of her acting, but because of the plot. i mean tbf there are so many talented actors trapped in lousy script so i wouldnt say they are a bad actor bc of that

do i need to watch the first two?

i saw that too and some of them seems like fan of other celebs (due to their profile picture) commenting on ml choice. i cant say anything if they are novel fans bc they have that right but if he was confirmed, i hope he can change their mind just like he changed hl novel fans opinion.

also, did this dicourse happen since he was announced early this month or it only happen this week? bc i thought it was pretty peaceful at that time especially when reba fans seems relieved that she wouldnt work with dylan wang

do we know how many episode this drama will have? i hope it will not go more than 30, but most probably it will be 36? long modern drama worried me. did anyone tried reading the novel? how is it?

this makes my heart feel heavy. i wish some fans will have critical thinking that it's not actors's fault but the production. ju jingyi is definitely the victim as she is more senior and has more experience in historical drama but it's not czy team fault that the production tell them something else. i personally wish czy team would just concede but this is about contract so it's no one fault but the production really.

i like both actors and i wish their filming will not be affected, it is so great when both fandom can get along as the actors wouldnt feel awkward with each other. wishing the best for all the actors and praying this issue will be forgotten soon

yeah im just saying in case you knew about chen haosen roles too

my bad that i only see one link but ty. but if it were true why didnt other melon acc post about them being sang zhi and jiaxu? also, there are also chen haosen, it is also unsure what role he will play. the latest melon also said xiaowen might play guest role instead so it make sense if he was jiaxu. i prefer not having a lot of sang zhi and jiaxu the way we dont have much of them in the novel.

still not answering my point about ZXW and ZMY being DJX & SZ. i knew about them being casted but it boggles my mind that people quickly assume they will play jiaxu and sangzhi when there is no confirmation, they could play any characters, yifan colleague, sang yan friend so it just so unfair when ppl already attack them when it was not even confirmed what roles they will play. DJX & SZ presence in this novel is never as big as SY presence on HL novel.

i also know some are not satisfied with the casting but bai jingting were amongs the people novel reader want back in 2022, and it's not like HL cast was favoured among cnets when they are announced. i am coming at you simply bc your assumption of second leads playing as DJX & SZ which was not confirmed so this opinion on them are just so...silly? why not write this when you had confirmation what roles they playing.

why are you so certain xiaowen and miaoyi are playing duan jiaxu and sangzhi? have you read the novel bc their roles are very minimal, there were no second leads in first frost and they are adding it in the drama but there were no confirmation they are playing these characters.

also, how is zhai xiao wen is so much worse? he can act, not as good as CZY but he has gentle image and sweet voice which fits DJX so how is he not fitting? in fact, if i remember right, before CZY was cast people were also not happy with his casting and some even want ZXW.

that is too little but thank god we got everyday

how many episodes will we get tonight?

thank you!!!

to make you feel better, first frost adaptation announcement has been announced way before hidden love drama was released last year. first frost adaptation was announced in 2022 if i remembered right, and the rumoured cast has been circulating since the end of 2022 and victor ma was never among the rumoured cast. the producer (?) i believe also clarified sang yan in hidden love was not the same sang yan in first frost (they said this before hidden love was released in 2023)

do you know any other drama they have produced? i wanna see reference of their past work 😆

i personally dont think she is self centred and think she is able to do it all, but rather she strive to do it all? i dont remember much now but i view her as not wanting to depend on others, eventho she probably achieve nothing, and i like that so much about her. there are many characters in this world who likes to do thing alone not because they dont trust others but also bc they dont want others to get involved in their cause and they just too embarassed to ask for help, but they dont think they are better than others. i rarely seen character like her and that's why i like her so much because i think i am able to relate to every action of her. and i like it more when she let go of her revenge through all her experience like it's really nice to see.

i will take bai jingting and zhang ruonan for my sang yan and yifan over other cast any other day. both are really good actors than some of the previous rumored cast. my first pick is arthur, second is linghe and bjt never cross my mind. but bjt is much better actor than these two imo so i am not disappointed at all and he is very much attractive too. as for ruonan......people really disliking her as yifan? really? she played sad depressed character so well what's with the complain saying her childish.

i had no doubt bai jingting can do better than victor ma, i mean he is very chic and cool in you are my hero. he can be cold if he is supposed to act the role imo
