People below: i loved POJ from the start but its a crime to even compare Overdo to it.
Fans of drama that only count on visual and cinematography but have weak plot and bad storytelling, now criticizing a drama that have fast paced, layered characters, and bring real issue in their story. Let me tell you that drama you like is only counting on excessive romance scenes and filler scenes that I feel bad for the actors involved because the only discussion being made was only about how hot their chemistry by all those disgusting skinship, not even plot can be discussed lol
So it should be otherwise. It should be a crime to compare Overdo with that kind of drama. Overdo doesn't need bed scenes to make people believe the chemistry between leads and it has more than just a romance story.
Thank you! The way you just spoke my mind. Good to know I'm not the only one who felt the "excessive hate…
I am actually okay with constructive criticism about AI intro and other technical issue. But then I go check another drama pages that just aired and use the same AI intro, same excessive lighting but no one critic those drama as harsh as they did to overdo. And tbh I should say that no one even critic them.
And what is more irritating is some people here try to lecture Overdo enjoyer to accept the ratings as if it is given objectively and not an orchestrated hate. When the subjective critics has been made even before the drama aired.
They also kind of insult people who still enjoy this drama as brainless when most of discussions are breaking down the character's emotions to understand them even more. And that definitely needs lot of brain lol
Kinda sad because viewers nowadays just like "sheep without shepherd" that choose to hate because the loudest voice say so and neglect their own judgment.
There are some people who still try to deny this drama got a lot "excessive hate" from the very beginning while I don't see the same harsh critics and energy towards the usage of AI intro, excessive lighting, bad CGI, dubbing, and editing being thrown at other dramas that recently aired.
Many people also compare it to Linghe's previous drama which has a completely different genre and if I should be honest the strongest part of that one is only the cinematography, there is nothing much can be explored by his fans cause they butcher his screentime and his character too. So, if people find his fans are enjoying this drama, it's not blindly defend, but because this drama has focus on his character and make his story complete.
If you find another drama boring and have comments "the first few episodes is not hooking me", you will see the reply "keep watching, it got better a lot after those episodes" and no one will debate that reply. For other dramas, people are allowed to reply to others to persuade them for give it a chance. While for this drama, if you reply with such things, others will reply "This drama is bad, just drop it", "If the story can't hook people right from the start then it is a trash drama". So other dramas are allowed to unfold their story by each eps while this drama is not allowed?
As for people criticizing it as "weak script" and "bad character development". From what I see, this drama is too heavy for viewers nowadays who can only label characters with lots of color but not gray. Gray characters exist in Cdramas since years ago. Viewers can enjoy them really well back then and they treated the characters more like "real people" who can do right and wrong at the same time as they consider the characters actions & decisions are based on their past experiences. Personally, I love this drama for bringing this kind of story with gray morally characters back because it's getting tired to see the same red green flag or gender discussion over and over again every time new drama is aired. One wrong action by the main characters and viewers label them as "red". One good action from the main characters and viewers label them as "green". While 3 dimensional character can not be labeled that way because they change gradually as the story progressed. This drama is also too heavy for them who wants a fluffy romance for the leads, when in fact, if you deep down to their dialogues, it's even more romantic than any kind of skinship. For me, this drama is the type that you need to be patient while waiting the story to be unfolded one by one.
I agree this drama is not for everyone and has it flaws, but that doesn't make it deserved to get this level of hate. Moreover when there are other dramas that also have same technical problems/flaws but not getting call out the same way they did to this drama. That's why it is normal for the viewers who enjoy this drama to feel the critics and the ratings given are not objective and being done performatively just to drag it down.
Okay, people, if you’re not enjoying the drama, that’s completely your choice. But this message is for those…
It's unuseful to remind. This drama is too heavy for simple minded viewers that can only differentiate red and green colors and think about visual that much as if they are oscars jury
good that you like it but let's not act like this wasn't directed and edited by someone on crack.
Ewh. Turns out my view about you is right. You only want to be seen as "objective" one when you watch this drama but also keep trashtalking the production as if many viewers should not move on for that. We already move to plot discussion yet you keep trying to emphasize the technical issue that gradually becoming better.
And op said in the comment below "first i thought same but when I watched myself, I think people being judgy too much lom"
She thought the same but then she have her own judgment. And she said "people" not "m4zzue" so if you are not the "people" that overly judge this drama then just shut up.
And yes, this drama is overly judge cause I know a lot of cdramas using AI for its intro but not even getting drag like this. And the crew has humbly say sorry and replace it.
Also the CGI, they already put notice that it is done with CGI cause they can't burn the real one. And the plane was just a few minutes scenes. But people already judge it as worst drama without even want to know the story.
good that you like it but let's not act like this wasn't directed and edited by someone on crack.
As I said the OP make an objective comments that only said "production is not that bad".
Idk why you take it so personally as if no one should say so.
And it's not that I forbid you to say the production team is bad. Let's be honest, you already said it in all of your comments and even after 20 episodes you still say something like this?
You want people to respect you, but you can't even respect others opinion.
And op even said she hesitate to watch because of bad PR and not even judging others who dislike this drama because of that issue. She just said "turns out it's not as bad as people said after I decided to watch it by myself."
good that you like it but let's not act like this wasn't directed and edited by someone on crack.
The op finds that the editing is fine for op personally and highlighting how bad PR ruins the first impression. I also saw several comments saying that the directing is okay but not great. This is totally objective comments. I don't know why you keep replying like this when someone said they find it's okay.
i want to know if i should bother watching this one:usually (not always!) don't like republican era dramas due…
This is by far Zhang Linghe's most interesting and complete character. And Qingyi is not fully red or green character, he is in grey area. The drama itself is a new theme for him. You will see so many improvement in his acting through Qingyi.
No one knows. But if you want to think they have, then they have.But for me, looking at Qingyi's personality,…
just his puppy gaze. the kiss 3 years ago was just a peck that for me it's more about pure love rather than obsession. for me "touching each other skin" doesn't mean they have "done" it.
the kiss 3 years later is different. qingyi at this stated already change because of what happened in 3 years ago. so the forced kiss is to show how insane he is after he lose her and to see her back as his sister in law.
Ok I watched ep 1 and not sure if should continue, mainly cause FL is apparently big brother’s fiance and he…
FL and the big brother doesn't have any feelings for each other. The big brother will have his own love interest in the later episode. Go continue watching to find it out. I hope as the story unfolds by each episodes, it will captivates you.
while i said all of that, i don't have weibo anymore so i wouldn't know regarding the hate the actress involved…
Gurl.. It's no use to reply to that person. She is a LYX fans. You just wasting your time. No one will actually care that Zhang Linghe was hated during MJTY because of that actress team and fans. Not even now, when ZLH and his fans is called name everyday (prostitute, dicksuckers, whore, sluts). Just ignore this LYX fans who are a woman at first but do nothing when other women being called with those harsh words since years ago.
Xiao zhan fans, his marketing accounts and his team in China are also attacking ZLH. The attacks started last…
His prime time has passed and his fans can not accept it. And even for that, XZ was popular because of BL drama when Zhang Linghe's BL drama is not airing and he is gradually getting famous by his roles after that. They are bunch of insecure people.
Get ready, seems Both republican drama will air on the same time.

But for me, looking at Qingyi's personality, I don't think he will touch her to that point back then.
I just fight back the same way she did and look she can't accept it either right? She even bring another actress to her insult.
What did she expect when she came to ZLH page only to hate him? For his fans to welcome and cheer? Don't follow her to br a stupid moron fool pantek
Get ready, seems Both republican drama will air on the same time.
