It's shows like this and Blossom that make me mad at myself for not being able to read Chinese characters. I wish…
YESSSSSSSS Its precisely this attention to detail that made this drama such a visually stunning treat. They are all wonderfully talented people and made the drama a joy to watch... I feel sooo happy watching LDT. Everything is perfect.
I hate it when some directors seem to think ' fix it in post' is the solution to everything after some poor planning.... like some obviously daytime-shot scenes and they lower the exposure to fake 'night time' and it all just looks so wrong! hahah
The 艺术总监 I suppose equates to Art Director is 尹涛 Yin Tao, who is also the director of the drama Main Director 尹涛 Yin Tao Section Director 谢毅航 Xie Yi Hang ( there are several more group A and B directors )
For this drama LDT, they were split into two groups, A and B. Basically the main casts' scenes are all shot by Yintao, and the other director shoots the scenes of the secondary characters like Palace and 'baddies' , if I recall their call sheet correctly

(These are just the heads of their own depts there are so many many more...)
Its hard to find the projects based on their names alone but the Costume Designer is quite famous and her style is obvious in many other dramas... if you ask around I think there are others who have noted her work and can tell you what other dramas she styled for.
How the flowing fabrics was shot is every anime fan's dream. How did Deng Wei move with such grace that the cloth just listen and flutters the perfect dreamy amount?? *TRADE SECRET??* LOOL
They are more borderline. The drunk kiss was welcomed at first, until he said it was for Quigge. And the second…
So far LDT's kisses have not violated my human rights/consent meter yet lol
Even if its a modern day drama, I need to ask people who seem to mix up the idea of consent with assault... If you were ever unconscious and someone gave you CPR, do you consider that assault? becos I don't think they are able to ask for your consent?
The story is easy to follow for me, and no skipping really needed for me, it’s been engaging, but everyone’s…
Earlier on I had issues watching MRW scenes but lately all her scenes have been satisfying to watch because her ass is being handed to her every single time its so cathartic LOL
How did the ML know which fruit was the FL and which one was her younger sister, since there were 2 fruits on…
It was because even though there was two souls attached to the tree, he gave the half of his core to MQG. Its like part of the spell. Can't go wrong I suppose. Its like programming code. He can't separate MQG and MRW's souls to exclude the sister from being on the tree but he can apparently assign his core to a specific target.
So he was able to tell because he can tell the aura of his own core. MRW was powered by the stolen powers of MQG and she drew the energies from the tree and pushed her sister off so she can have it all to herself.
In a way I kinda understand why MRW became the way that she is. Not saying anything she did was right but ....…
Yes I agree with that. BUT one big thing was, she was still hoping to marry Su yu and have a normal life too. Its so conflicting. Was she going to cultivate and never die but leave him behind? Su yu is supposed to be mortal. I really can't stand how she kept blaming her sister about how her bones were 'damaged' because of her decision not to help the robbers poison the innocents. She truly does not deserve to become immortal with that kind of selfish mindset. As it is, there are already alot of immortals with problematic personalities as we have seen in other xianxia lol
It was actually a trick from smart Ranran, letting MRW won and pretended that she was defeated and immediately…
I was looking around for a token at her waist but didn't see one. Maybe she got some other way to keep the use of her energy. Su yu will have no excuse to keep MQG powerless while she walks around inside his palace right.
It was actually a trick from smart Ranran, letting MRW won and pretended that she was defeated and immediately…
RR was also recently all charged up from the Spring after the trials. Anyway why her spirit power is not consistent within the palace, I just accept it as different spots in the palace 'dead zone' that is jamming their connection to the energies of nature hehe
She did but it declined when RR used the break the galaxy spell. The 2nd time mrw stopped her and it backfired…
She is all about the shortcuts. If you have been watching her scenes, she had instructed that wealthy fengshui disciple to get her the 'ghost grass' that can power her up in a short time, but its got side effects hehe As usual in this life she learnt nothing from her past one, and still sought to take power for min effort.
Ah you mean to 'receive' her at her birthing? I think it was not really an open event lolOnly VIPs only. Becos…
Yes and the scene commented how she turned many of them away, including the General Qin who was ugly LOL He was a last minute addition to her disciples when she was taking the spring to hide, so nobody else knew about him. That's why MRW thought he was talking nonsense when he claimed to be her 'closed door' disciple.
this must be the most xian xia high tech arc in the entire drama, because we had drones, listening devices, WIFI…
And the talking stone in LYF was a town CCTV. LDT outdid itself trying to be logical in a xianxia
Like how RR was trying to find the wifi hotspots in the palace that has blocked cell signal, and the others are all given administrator rights to some tethering hotspots HAHAHAHAHA
Actually it kind of makes sense in a way. Isn't it established that all cultivators tapping into the energies of nature to charge up their spiritual power. So a formation that makes the area a deadzone to those who need to draw on that power is also still surprisingly logical.
As for SYS still having his own power, for now the drop of demon spring should be adequate enough to explain why he is still so powerful. He is running on a different juice lol
They said in the earlier episode, i forgot which one, but when he met the fake MQG SY said something along the…
I don't think Consort Fei is a cultivator? She was just a teenager 20 years ago under her father's command in his army, and willing went into the palace to protect Su yu at the behest of MQG. We can just assume in the palace as one of his consorts, she will have access to the best skincare, spa days available. Feel young, look young!
How in the world are Su Yu, and consort Fei, still as young as they were 19 years ago?i could understand SYS if…
Your logic is sound. In the novel, it was clearly stated that only SYS, Mu Qingge and Mu Ranwu all looked young. Everyone else, even the cultivators had aged. As long as they had not ascended yet, they did not have immortality. So the other cultivators were very envious of SYS for looking as he did 20 years ( novel was 20 ) ago. For novel SYS, it was explained that his aging 'froze' because of the face curse. However in a drama medium, we cannot expect all of the cast to grow a beard just to show they aged esp for women lol They are also unlikely to recast the roles just to match their age groups because they needed people to be able to tell the characters apart easily. If they already have a group of people who appear for a very short time, mixed with even more people who appear for short time, we will never be able to know who they are unless the name tags keep appearing. As some other fans have pointed out, the drama has throwaway lines here and there to explain this, esp that particular cultivator for his matchmaking, that there is people cultivating 'skincare' hahaha so they were aware and did the best they could hehe

Everytime he scolds her she uses 'Xiao Shui' and he's suddenly all puppy eyes.
