Thank you for giving me such an explanatory response. I will keep watching.

I added Zhao Lu Si to my list of favorite actors because I enjoy some of her dramas. However, I’m not a fan of her individually; I just enjoy watching her shows. Also, I wasn't talking about stereotypical roles; I was referring to her acting ability. I like MZY, but in my opinion, he still needs to improve his acting.

Actually, I've only watched two episodes so far. I’ve mostly seen Shen Xi He plotting and scheming. I assume that in the coming episodes, I’ll get to see the male lead’s schemes as well.

What does sexism have to do with this? That was a truly ridiculous response. What I meant was that the crown prince can fall in love with Shen Xi He, but in later episodes, like around the fifth one. Him looking at her as if he's in love in the second episode feels less like true love and more like being captivated by her beauty.

It feels completely unbelievable that the Crown Prince would go to such lengths—disguising himself in various ways—for a regional princess and fall in love with her so quickly. Furthermore, why do Chinese writers constantly portray female characters as manipulative schemers under the guise of being 'clever women' instead of writing simple, modest, and charming princess characters? It can get quite exhausting at times. I would have preferred to watch Shen Xi He as the modest, ordinary princess she was in the first few minutes of the show.

The latest shooting took place yesterday, and it was the 40th day of filming.

The series featured a reincarnation plot, and they didn't skip over that part.

Yes

It was a magnificent drama. Chu Zhao’s intelligence truly impressed me. While there were several plot inconsistencies, I’ve chosen to overlook them.
• At the beginning, I was very captivated by Deng Yi. I always held onto the hope that he would turn out well, and he was indeed killed unjustly.
•As for Xie Yan Fang, I never liked him, nor did I ever think I would. However, after witnessing the scenes where he fell in love with Zhao, I found myself falling for him, too. The man left quite an impact on me; I kept wishing he wouldn't die. Right until his final breath, his love for Zhao remained evident in his eyes. He even said it at the very end: "I stand by the decision I made." He never regretted loving her, even though she was the one who destroyed the Xie household. I absolutely adore characters like that 🫠❤️‍🔥.
•I was expecting a more detailed subplot for the character Xiang, but they seemed to rush it into the final minutes of the last episode. I assume this was due to episode count or budget constraints. Overall, it was a beautiful series. For those who enjoy intrigue as much as I do, I highly recommend watching it.

When I came here to comment, I didn't know that she received this much backlash on MDL. It turns out that global viewers are well aware of everything as well. If she took a break from filming new dramas or participating in variety shows for a while and focused on working on her acting skills, she would receive much more positive reactions and her dramas would be better appreciated. I think she should try this approach.

Meng Zi Yi is the most prominent example of an actress who continues to land lead roles despite facing constant criticism regarding her acting skills. The reason she is still able to secure such parts is widely attributed to her being "Tencent's princess." Please do not misunderstand; I am not a hater, but rather someone who tries to be realistic. I personally liked her in Blossom, but she has received heavy criticism for her acting in her subsequent projects. Despite this, she continues to headline major productions. It is quite disheartening to see many talented actresses, even those with solid academic backgrounds in drama, still stuck in supporting roles or short-form web series, while others secure leading roles through nepotism and connections.

You can talk about the NRTA and official institutions, and you can only convince those institutions, not the viewers. Besides, is every approved rule necessarily right? All over the world, people's lives are ruined because of hundreds of wrong rules that have been put in place. I pity you. You are saying foolish things to defend your idol's drama and trying to belittle people. Furthermore, I am sure that if your idol were not acting in this series, you would never have come here to try and defend it. So, you are not neutral either.

Just because 800,000 people think this way doesn't make it right, and it's honestly heartbreaking that they do.

I will never be able to understand the Chinese. They oppose popular actors and actresses starring in the same series and want lower-tier actors/actresses beside their idols. This is truly such a stupid demand. Since their idols shine just a little bit, their fan clubs think their idols are the best and don't want to see popular names next to them. Someone needs to knock some sense into Chinese fan groups. They really need it.

I do not know whether Guo Yu Xin actually said such a thing. However, from what I have seen and understood, someone is running a smear campaign against her. Trending topics about her criticizing her co-stars appear one after another. Previously, attacks were also made against Yu Shuxin and various other actresses in succession.

We all came here after seeing the trending searches on Weibo, but they are claiming that Guo Yuxin said these things without providing any evidence. Making such claims without proof is nothing more than slander. Therefore, please do not speak on this matter without sufficient evidence. Furthermore, she has no reason to say such a thing. They have coincidentally worn the same outfits twice, and they act in completely different types of dramas.There is no reason for her to have such a conversation.

My son is so handsome that whatever he wears looks good on him. These costumes bring out his charm.

Writing here won't change anything. Someone needs to update the cast list. I am going to send a request. Also, due to new billing rules, there are now two lead actors. There used to be four lead actors.

"Zhong Mo Yuan", starring Zheng Yecheng, has recently been a massive hit on CCTV, reaching peak popularity and instantly turning the Xuan Paper Town in Jing County into a trending destination! In just two days, the number of tourists surged by 536.7%, with crowds flocking to the filming locations to immerse themselves in the intangible cultural heritage of Xuan paper, just as seen in the drama.
