It's a slow burn, or actually I don't know how to call this, maybe a hot slow burn 🤣, as every scene with main…
"they were forced to bump into each other on every possible occasion and stare at each other in slow motion" And there's always one accidental kiss and several scenes where ML catches FL who trips over thin air, then they're suddenly in love. I never found that believable in any way. Definitely prefer how this drama writes the romance.
Simple, Trashta's fans that rated Minglan 10/10 is the water army attacking here from a 8.7 to 8.0 in 1 hour.
Where do you think the water army comes from? I'll be honest, the international C-drama fandom is really small from my point of view and many fans are just casual fans. I just find it a bit hard to believe that Chinese actors have so many English-speaking hardcore fans who come to this website and waste time downvoting dramas of actors they dislike.
I know voter manipulation definitely happens on the Chinese internet! I'm just confused as to how their fandom fights have anything to do with us English-speaking fans who are pretty chill as a whole.
I like this drama BUT the FL is starting to get on my nerve. She started out smart but in Ep. 9 not so much and…
Honestly, I'm okay with female leads making mistakes and having a few negative traits. Everyone's entitled to their opinion, but I feel like some viewers expect perfect FLs and criticize them for making even the slightest mistakes while they don't have such expectations of MLs and other characters.
Traditionally historical drama main characters are very young, like 15 or 16. But of course they can't cast such…
Honestly, I don't think it's that deep. It's just drama logic in dramaland. 🤷
Crossdressing female characters who are styled like women and sound like women is a common trope in C-dramas. It's not to be taken seriously. We, the viewers, are supposed to suspend our disbelief and just go with it.
Guys, I will answer your questions why M:TC does not appear on WeTV:The way to think of it is that if a drama…
I don't know about that...
Crappy Chinese dramas already exist on WeTV. It makes no difference if they add one more crappy drama to the catalogue. Moreover, people who choose to watch Asian shows on WeTV do it because they want to see something different from "Western" shows, even if they have bad CGI or the script isn't perfect. The competition you speak of doesn't really exist.
Her acting skills are good when she chooses the right roles. She's amazing in Princess Weiyoung and Ashes of Love. I think playing strong and brave female characters matches her most. She's less convincing in sweet and naive roles.
His kissing scenes are so awkward, such a great actor it’s a pity he is “not allowed “ to kiss 💋 for…
Yeah, it's a bit disappointing. But I don't think it has something to do with different countries having different customs. Other Chinese actors do plenty of real kiss scenes. He doesn't, for personal reasons we may never know. Some people think it's because he's married and that's why he doesn't act out kiss scenes but who really knows.
So I usually watch this drama on duboku raw version and the number of negative comments is a lot, they talk about…
I guess one good thing about not being able to understand Chinese is that I don't have to read negative comments from Chinese netizens, too. Any negativity on this website or YouTube/Disqus is enough for me, lmao.
May be the viewers don't like a 'man' in Cdramas.Most of these Cdramas have effeminate men who barely look like…
Which actors and actresses in C-dramas would you say look like real men and women to you?
No offense intended but I'm confused why someone who doesn't like the "pretty boy" trend nor skinny women watches C-dramas. After all, dramas nowadays are chock full of effeminate men and women who are so skinny, they barely have any curves.
I think some criticism is valid when it comes to the acting of actresses and the roles they get.But what's also…
I should have clarified that by nitpicking facial expressions I meant vague comments like, "her pouts annoy me" or "her mouth movements look weird". To me, these don't sound like criticism on someone's acting abilities.
I watched the 1st episode without subs. The drama has a pretty funny concept. Similar to The Romance of Tiger and Rose or Lost Romance but more "direct". I wished this had been made into a full length drama.
Deep sigh. Another mysogenistic 'I hate her acting'. Rarely, hardly ever does someone comment on the acting of…
I think some criticism is valid when it comes to the acting of actresses and the roles they get.
But what's also true – and here, I agree with you – is that some viewers are hyper-critical with women and will nitpick everything about an actress, from her voice to her facial expressions and even facial features. I rarely see such nit-picky comments about men.

Zhao Lusi looks nothing like them.
