No you shouldn't. He's not a main character.

I think he looks fine. However, he would look better if the filter is not whiting out all the skin tone!

For those who don't know the main actress LSS: she is famous relative to all the other actors/actresses in this drama:

She was referred to as the one of the "Four Dan actresses" who are bankable:

Recently, Liu Shi Shi was hired by Celine to be the new Global Ambassador:

Looks like epic love story:

I think the story is a little bit convoluted in the beginning because of all the extra characters. Too many people died. But that's the theme: humans and demons will fight until evil is eradicated. People who watch this story for all the so called "famous" idols will be disappointed because they are there as cameos to gain new fans. The true famous star of this drama is
Liu Shi Shi. If you don't know her, do some research and watch some of her famous dramas (starting with Scarlet Heart 1) .

I can't wait to see more development in this story and the Sword and Beloved. These stories remind me of those old Jin Yong stories with new Xianxia twists.

I think he's not in the same caliber as LSS. However, he's a decent actor. I haven't seen any of his dramas because they are mostly action. He might be paired with her because they are similar age. It might have to do with cost and availability too. They paid a lot already for her so most likely they are not going to hire an expensive actor.
I also noticed the LSS is mostly NOT paired with younger actors. This is a smart move on her part. There's no point to get paired with 20-something actors who will look too young compared to her.

Think of this as a theme, which is the main problem addressed in this drama: humans and demons are killing each other. Until the evils are vanquished, good people will still die.

A few people asked why these "famous" supporting cast are in this drama. The reason is this drama is a high profile drama with a veteran famous star, Cecilia Liu, who although 37, can still command a main lead role in a major drama. These other "famous" stars still need her to gain new fans.

You don't see equivalent famous stars in the same drama.

FL is so famous, more than any other actors in this drama. She's 37 and still can come back and takes the main lead roles. It's NOT an accident! Also, these so-call "famous" supporting cast needs to go these high profile dramas to earn new fans. That's the reason!

Good thing is the bad guys die pretty quickly too :)

I agree. I think it's the director issue. Maybe he's doing this for a purpose. It's more like a comic effect. The story has been good so far.

Yes, filters helped. However, deep wrinkles can't be filtered completely. Asians (especially women) tend not to hang out in the sun, which causes huge damages to the skin. Also, the K and C actresses are more likely to take good care of their skin. My Dad was 80s+ and didn't have deep wrinkles.

This is a lot better than the Red Moon. I dropped RM after 2 eps when it came out and still can understand. The story and the chemistry between the lead are good.
Liu Shi Shi still has it! Very versatile actress.

Liu Shishi is more famous than the cameos! She's the reason I am watching this drama.

Actually happy ending. Decent ending. But there were fillers.

Entertaining until 19.

Yesssss.

Both leads will be solid in that drama. Very promising.

I am waiting for the General.

Yes, she's been acting with glaring eyes and not too loving. It's like a video game. No feelings, just winning.

You are right. Now every episode is a different combination of how to bring the father down. It's losing momentum and interest for me too.
