I was worried about them toning down his crazy moments because I saw the ear cutting scene wasn't in the script. But with this scene today I feel rest assured that director will add something else instead.
First of all, everyone here is an international audience not involved in whatever drama that's going on over on China's social media and is having a good time enjoying and discussing this drama in this space. Why do you feel the need to bring all that negativity over?
Second, everyone has different tastes. Just because you don't like it doesn't make others' tastes invalid.
Third, did you even follow ALL the data reports and not just the heat index? This drama has top numbers across every single ranking lists related to tv series in China. If heat index was faked, the data on all the ranking lists wouldn't match up. That include Yunhe/Kuyun view counts, Douyin popularity, Wechat, Baidu, Lighthouse, Maoyan, and more. POJ is even having trending numbers on the pirate drama sites. Do you think Tencent and iQIYI are buying the data for this too?
And since you mentioned Rednote, I am there every day reading posts about POJ. Did you not see how actual drama fans of this series have now started a trending meme by calling themselves "programmers" because of the accusations that POJ's data is rigged all across the board?
My only issue is Li Huian’s drawing skills.. I mean that definitely does not look like the Marquis of Wuan..…
I assume that's his victory march outfit after battles he fought so makes sense that ordinary people would recognize him in that appearance instead of his casual out of public look. But logically he wouldn't be stupid enough to parade around like that if he was in hiding so it is dumb on LHA's part lol.
am i the only one laughing whenever his bangs are moving but theres no wind? he looks good but he's literally…
Ah but if you pay attention to the background there's always a doorway or window open nearby somewhere out of sight so I can buy that a draft is blowing in. It's just that only his hair moves and not other characters who are in the same place as him lol.
For a while I was feeling cold watching a sickly XZ always sitting with his windows open in winter. After episode 7, I wonder if this was a deliberate detail to hint at his trauma from what happened when the window closed.
alright there's so many comments about whether is ZLH dubbed or not and I'm started to doubt it, too 🤣 to me…
He is dubbed, it's listed in the ending credits. It's the same voice actor as his other roles in LBFAD, TAC, TPR and FSM. I believe it's also the same voice actor in FIT. So he's basically the go to voice actor for ZLH lol. I remember his rhinitis was pretty bad during the filming of this drama and he was probably too busy to have fit in time for his own dubbing in post production.
Congrats TBT for landing in the top 5 of Yunhe Data's list of dramas with effective long-tail airing effect, meaning there are still many watchers replaying the drama or watching for the first time months after it has ended. The top 10 list is as follows:
