I would say I can understand it but won't justify it. It's a bitter relationship right now and it's understandable they won't listen to each other.
Edit: I like the current relationship status because it fits their character and state of mind. It would be weird if they suddenly started behaving like a normal mother daughter.
after 16 episodes we only saw mother sadness through her looking at the moon but finally the mother cried! and…
I think it's pretty much agreed by most people that both are in the wrong. They didn't have the usual mother daughter relationship which led to the current situation.
Edit: I think a positive change in their relationship will be part of the character growth both mother and daughter will go through.
I hated CSS when she said this " I hate people with blood on their hands"......That's very hypocritical of her…
It's one on those things people say when they don't have much worldly experience. So, I think it's quite consistent with the stage of life the FL is in. I can relate cos I also used to say stuff which sounds very immature when I think back.
Also, I think she said it out of anger without giving much thought because the kid just died.
True!! At least use a double/artist who can actually play and just zoom in on the instrument part when they r…
LOL i won't reply anymore after this. IMO since it's all acting, it's the job of the people involved (i don't mean just actors) to make what they do believable to the audience. If you think about it, it maybe art, but it's their job as well. When you do your job, you are expected to do well or at least try your very best. As humans, you will make mistakes and that's ok, which is why even the greatest of movies/dramas will have some criticisms, albeit minor ones. Did u really think the person/people responsible for the pipa scenes tried their best? Do u really think the director, editor or actor will look at those scenes with pride?
Also, pls stop this mindset that people without certain areas of expertise shouldn't/can't judge others, especially in this case. I do agree we can't do it for all fields, this isn't one of them.
I do feel that u don't see the point I'm trying to make. However, if u do and still made these statements, it means we will never come to an agreement on this matter.

Oh my LOL, u do realise what i said about using a double was a suggestion out of many alternatives. What you've suggested is also a good one. The point is that, we, two random people came with these better alternatives than what they've done. So, I'll say it again, it was a bad (possibly lazy) execution on the part of the people involved.
I hope you understand the point I'm trying to make.

"Even if you are a professional pipa player, you need to understand maybe the artist doesn't have the skill": Which is why I gave a suggestion/input. I might be wrong, but it's a suggestion and an opinion.
"and if a director likes it that way they will perform it that way. Sometimes director doesn't just want a real instrument player, but the actor to do a cool move with the instrument": Agreed, but it doesn't change the fact that it's badly executed and kills the immersion like the OP commented.
"cause it's not an orchestra show, it's a drama and people need to act.": I think that's a weak argument. A show becomes a lot better when the overall execution is good.
"But it's a little embarrassing I don't think you have any pipa skills to be picky to that extent... as if you're an expert?": I'm not an actor but I can appreciate good acting and can spot bad acting as well. Similarly, I don't have to be a pipa player or a musician to know/see that the actor's hand movements and the sound is not in sync. Going by your statement, no one should provide any form of criticism /comment unless they are an expert themselves, which is absurd.
I gave a lengthy response cos I felt your response was a bit personal. You've to understand, despite my comments, I still love the drama. I made a constructive criticism because I cared enough, it's not blind dislike.
If china government didn’t ban long episodes of drama, I think this drama have at the least 50 episodes
If they truly intended it to have more eps, they could've shot everything and split it into 2 seasons like other dramas have done as a workaround for the seasonal episode limit. It doesn't change my love for the drama but the thought that it could've been much better makes me a bit irritated.
So, WRTW is now in my country's netflix. However, it's only upto ep 12 for now and ep 13-18 will be streamed on 5th may. So i guess it will always be behind WeTV.
