Since majority of your favourite dramas this year seem to be C-dramas, you should try “Pursuit of Jade” if you have time. It’s a Wuxia. The main female characters are written really well - really bad ass and self sufficient . As of episode 17, the SML isn’t annoying either as he is prioritizing his patriotic duty over his one sided crush. He cares for her wellbeing but respects her connection with the ML and doesn’t meddle.

If the reason why you are comparing Our Universe with Positively Yours is due to the premise of co-parenting/ babies, while not the same, the FL and ML pretty much raise her 6-7 year old sister together like their own kid.

That's so true. Even if we consider the sketch, there's nothing wrong with having full lips and large eyes afterall. They can be beautiful too🙈

They probably won't add it in the drama- it's easier to omit it than trying to find a way to add it to the drama without getting censored

(Not a novel reader so don't know if what you mentioned is true)

They could have easily edited it out then before launching the episode if he really meant it in a racist way (pretty sure quality control is done before releasing episodes)

True! I saw 2 different pictures side by side. None of them look ugly. Child like perhaps but definitely not ugly.

ZLH with messy hair is definitely not "ugly"🤣

What you said makes more sense. I've seen too many variety show scenes where they even edit scenes to twist the narrative. All for "views".

Besides ZLH would have to be stupid to publicly say something like that if he really was a racist. He already gets a lot of attention over the most random things afterall😅

Is the varshow Live?

But Yang Di isn't unattractive 😅

ZLH would have to be stupid to publicly hint that a fellow Chinese actor is "ugly". Is it based on the same art as the one on the link? They look childish but nothing offensive about them.

It's just that in East Asian countries like China or even South Korea, SOME individuals can be racist to SEAsians and SAsians over colourism, a difference in beauty standards, and other factors.

In this case, it's mostly a case of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" IMO. The sketch in question is quite rough since it was obviously for a game. Those who think it's ugly assumed that ZLH compared it to being a SEA was because *they think* that he thinks it's ugly.

The sketch itself really isn't ugly or even degrading. Nothing worth higlighting- a fun amateur sketch that looks nothing like him.

At most, his comment was tasteless even if unintended- not worth burning down his career though seeing as he took responsibility as well for his comment.

Ahhh ok. Thanks!
Probably a breach in contract then (I hope). 🙈

Honestly I low key feel bad for the artist player. Imagine getting global hate because people think your sketch is so ugly that it's considered racist?🙈

Wait they swapped his face because he was in a BL?😅😅😅

It's over a comment he made during a game show. Basically another participant drew a portrait of him for a game and he jokingly said that he looks like a South East Asian in it.

It depends on how the viewers look at it. Some found it offensive since they thought he meant it looks ugly due to past actions by East Asians in general.


Personally as a fellow SE Asian, even I've seen SEA originated artist facial doodles that kind of look like the art in question (big eyes and rounder lips) so it low key kind of makes sense why ZLH said that comment without thinking (since his features are completely different) The art itself isn't ugly- just that the artist is an amateur.

He anyway apologized. What he said was tacky but not worth mass bombing ratings/ demanding the masses to boycott him.

Ohh that’s good to hear! Thanks :)

It’s a slow burn but is really realistic. You can’t really be that annoyed with Wataru for taking his sweet time to realize the truth..isn’t it human to overanalyze every tiny detail when it comes to complex relationships where the stakes are high?

There might be a special episode?

I was wondering why Lord Qi and his “stare” felt so familiar - turns out he’s Zhuge Kong Yun from “The Wanted Detective” - only with yet another flamboyant look.

Damn…..in terms of years, how long approx were they separated for? 🙈

Ohhhh this makes more sense. I was wondering why the writer would try to ship these 2 given how traumatized Yu seems- the audience would have hated Qi if he did force her all those years ago. His obsession/ “need to verify” makes sense too. It’s something beyond either of their control🥲

Curious to see how their story will unfold…hopefully not tragic 🙈
(I’m trying to figure out who the sacrificial secondary couple will be since writers can be bloody thirsty🥲)

I haven't watched today's episodes yet but based on how freaked out she was and how offended he looked, he has to be the father. Seems like she ranaway. Given how his hair is grey eventhough he is clearly around the same age as the main and main support male cast, he probably was poisoned/ something happened to him 🙈

Ikr?! Their enermies to lovers arc is going to be 🔥🔥🔥🤭
