I found an interesting clue as to which drama 7 might pick up next. So a bit of background knowledge, fans like to use the drama hashtag and write random positive msgs (e.g., today is a beautiful day with rainbows and birds bla bla bla) before the drama is officially announced and also during the filming. This is what happened to Home. Fans of jbr and 7 would write msgs or comments using Home's hashtag to create traffic and noise. To keep the Home's homepage alive and kicking.

I noticed it's happening with this certain period drama for 7. It's not the Hua drama, I don't see any of 7's fans post positive msgs using Hua's hashtag, but I see a lot of her fans posting msgs using Pearl's hashtag. So 7 was rumored with 3 period dramas: Hua, Pearl, and this royalty drama. I at first thought she would take Hua, but I just checked the hashtag and I don't see much of 7's fans talking about it recently, also a lot of passerbys would say 7 doesn't fit fl and would suggest other actresses that would suit better. So this got me thinking that maybe 7 will take this pearl drama, and it's rumored to start filming early next month.

I'm not 100% sure about the plot but it's set in early Tang Dynasty about a girl working in a pearl factory and she escaped and went into hiding in some place. I think it has a concept of jewlery...maybe she becomes a jewlery merchant. I'm not sure. but these types of dramas usually have a theme like briodery (i rmb gulinaza had a drama with that concept), food, jewlery etc.

Oh no xianxa...then you won't watch yz and cy's drama?

I didn't watch any of those kdramas. I try watching it's ok to not be okay but it didn't catch my interest.

It's really good. Both are politics but done so well that I understand it. Nirvana has a lot of mega stars, it's the drama that got me noticing Leo Wu. Wk got popular from that drama and ofc Hu Ge is in it. Suggest you watch it if you have a drama drought. JOL is awesome as well, there's so much surprises and mystery. Great balance of comedy and seriousness. Lot of cliff hanger also. Very very excellent.It's more funny if you understand Chinese bc they use a lot of Chinese puns. I can very confidently say that Nirvana is one of the very few dramas that has 0 negative critiques. It's all positive applauds

What genre do you like?

I've listened to a few radio dramas that became adapted to dramas. There's few that can live up to the novel. Hopefully there's a strong onscreen cp, bc after UTP and GA I don't feel any cp from any of the dramas after.

lol, I guess. I like ones with good plot if there's no romance like Nirvana in Fire and JOL.

I also wish Home could air this year. But it's best to air next year or else she won't have anough dramas to air next year. OMG, if she does a period after Home then 2023 will be her year! I know Home will bring a lot of noise for her and jbr. Period always brings a lot of noise and popularity.

He's more popular than Kenny. Jbr does movies more. But he's known for being an A-list, like popular, but no actual work under his name. I guess he hasn't been very lucky since most of his dramas have been shelved. There's one with lyf, I mean liu yifei man, mega star but also shelved bc of 2nd ml controversy...something like that. And another bl drama with swl can't air bc of government ban on bl. So I guess he's hoping Home will help revive him.

I didn't finish momo. I have about 7 or so eps left. I kinda dropped it. I hope Flight will be better but it's really not my genre. I prefer Home more and I know I will definitely finish that

It seemed like they were in a rush to finish it. They had to film 22 scenes in one day. I think it may be the covid situation. We prob won't get a promotional video until close to the airing date next year. It's different than yz and cy's period drama where promo video and trailer are released one after another. Maybe it's different since it's with mbfb, the promo would be better, also bc jbr has popularity.

We didn't even get any promo videos for Flight, which I'm a bit annoyed. It's so hushed that I forget about the drama sometimes.

I see that there's this concept of airing multiple dramas at once now. I believe it started last year where one person's drama airs and his/her other dramas start airing at the same time. I think that's a horrible strategy since if one drama does well it takes away the attention and spotlight of the other drama. It also affects onscreen cps, like which cp does the fans and passerbys root for when the actor has 2 oncreen cps going on. It doesn't help them get immersed in the drama/cp. I'm glad 7 doesn't do that. In 2020 she aired 4 dramas, but thankfully it was spread out in each quarter. However a couple didn't do so well and got overshadowed like DMS was compared to GA. I see that she spreads her dramas somewhat evenly throughout the year, which is good bc it allows viewers to rmb her without getting sick of her. I think 2 dramas and 1 vs OR 1 drama 1 vs, a year, is the magic combo as it's enough to still be relevant throughout the year.

I actually LOLed at the scene where ml drank the tea. I thought it was like viagra but it lowers his libido instead.

No. They need to get broadcasting license. It took 6 months for flight to get their broadcasting license. There's a lot going on to get aired. They need sponsors and investors, censorship to give the ok, editing and voice over, broadcasting license etc.

The drama didn't officially announce the closing ceremony. Someone posted a pic of the cloding celebratory cake and the notice of finished filming. Fans are posting congratulatory words. That's it. But i believe they will post it officially in the next few days

I think she's pretty logical and self aware of her capabilities and her "shortness". I also like that she owns up to herself and encourages others. She's a smart lady and is forgiving but also has a baseline. I like logical fls and i find that lately a lot of fls are like that.

It's like ptsd from working at a dancing "brothel" at a young age. She was forced and became a slave and had to work/train to be a dancer to entertain men. She left that all behind when she was freed and she wants to forget and leave her pasr behind. But she had to seduce the guy to help her friend. So it just reminds her of her past and what she was reduced to. She's not ashamed or disgusted of the prostitutes/dancers bc she knows they all do this to make ends meet and to survive. It's how she had to betray her values to seduce the guy that made her feel dirty. I think it's a good scene bc it shows how much she'll mature later on and how she'll confidently and unashamedly accept her past

Finished filming!! Just have to wait for closing ceremony to be official.

Home finished filming! Theres a picture of the cake to celebrate and the notice of statement. The pics are on wb

Tmr is new ep of alchemy of souls. Yea. I kinda gave up on tdos. Plot is slow
