i feel like we need an FAQ on this page explaining everything so that people can stop asking questions that have already been asked and answered a million times lol
the budget was clearly already low, then they had to replace one of their actors (zhang hao wei) with a different one (li xin ze). rather than re-shoot scenes, AI must've been cheaper money and time-wise. yes it sucks and i hate it just as much as everyone else, but maybe it's cuz i've been waiting too long for this drama to be released that i'm just happy we can finally see it now, regardless of what criticisms i have concerning the show and its editing.
so here's a friendly disclaimer: don't come into this drama with high expectations. give some grace to the team for doing the best they could with what they were given.
i don't think the production team even expected this drama and the lead actors to get as much hype as they do now.
it must be churan's real voice. none of the characters sound dubbed as far as i can tell - except maybe liao shi yu and wang ruo hai. WRH's voice sounds AI generated
I'm on episode 3, and something is bothering me: was Wang Ruo Hai added to the show later using green screen or…
the original actor for his character was involved in a controversy so they used AI (and possibly green screen? im not keen on the specifics) to replace him with another actor
No spoilers, why are they using AI? And I was told about a scene in episode 1 where someone's head looked kind…
the original actor for wang ruo hai (zhang hao wei) was involved in some controversy around the time this drama was hoped to air. hence they replaced his character with a different actor (li xin ze) using AI. why AI? because it's china and they're unfortunately pretty keen on using AI and advanced technology in general.....
after watching ep 1, i'm looking forward to the rest of the drama! i already like qian fei and wish happiness for her <3
(if there's one thing to learn from watching this drama, then it's the fact that AI can never replicate and therefore replace humans — especially human emotions. i thought they would keep the original WRH actor's body and just AI replace the face with the new actor, but nope! they used AI to generate his voice and sometimes recreate scenes involving him.)
The people who got into cdramas only since hidden love or first frost or the recent POJ probably wont like this…
i agree. this drama is really revealing who's a cdrama newgen hahaha. the AI is the only atrocious thing about this drama. everything else isn't that bad as everyone's making it sound
Then enjoy it, instead of comparing it to what could have been. Just think of it as a drama that you missed two…
this is my mindset too ^^
thanks all the clips they released prior, i already knew beforehand that the budget would be pretty low and everything would be outdated or lacking, so my expectations were low.
i'm just glad we are able to watch this now regardless!
i miss this drama a lot already even though i just finished my rewatch. i'll replay the songs and my fav scenes over and over again until i get sick of them.
may yetan and youqin, qingkui and chaofeng, and everyone else (especially lamu, xiaomei, and wenren) live a happily ever after in the starry love universe <3

but if they toned down his chsracter in the show then that's good news!
