I tend treat novels and shows/ movies as the completely different mediums they are. If you separate them you can…
Mr. Darcy!! I like the 2005 film version the most.
Like you, I also treat original sources and cdrama adaptations as two separate entities. I don't read original sources for cdramas because it takes away my enjoyment when watching the show. I made a mistake once, so when it came to watching a highly anticipated show, the excitement was no longer there because I already knew all that was to happen.

βItβs funny because she says, βThis isnβt a storybook; sparrows donβt turn into phoenixes,β even though…

I am seriously regretting reading the novel starting 10 episodes ago because the drama continues to be underwhelming…
So glad I'm not reading the original source. Totally 1000% enjoying the drama, granting the director full agency in giving me the ultimate joy ride. More popcorn please...extra butter! π
If there was a college course about cdramas and POJ, the professor may have an essay prompt about QM and Greek tragedy parallelism. π
