To pull a 7.5 average down to a clean 7.0 with 1294 total ratings, you only need about 93 one‑star hits. I think the timing is strategic. It always starts out at the gate, so passersby think it's' not good or viewers are swayed by it, so it becomes a reality. In the beginning, it doesn't take many 1's to drop it.

there is no such thing as overpopulation in my view

He is dubbed (listed in dramawiki) but I understand your point too except it is also reasonable that a smaller frame person can have a booming voice so it's not exactly unbelievable to me, though you are right, the voice actor has a very powerful voice. I get your point, maybe they could have gone with a bit softer voice. It's a show so one expects a match though in real life, it doesn't have to match. he doesn't look big but at least his expressions are fierce looking.
yeah, that throne room is grand. so, you're feeling he does not have enough of a presence to match it?

I thought it's the voice box decides your voice, not your muscles. I get what you mean, we naturally assume a commanding voice must come from someone looking powerful. So, I think it's okay because small people can have big voices too.

the guy is a really excellent actor

They don't think beyond Chinese audience. It's a Chinese drama.

I find Viki is excellent.

Did it drop from 7.5 to 7 overnight?

Royal Betrothal intro is also AI generated but no one mentions it. This one so many complained.

speaking of Royal Feast, after four years, it is still trending on the Mango TV trending list
for TV dramas #6 Royal Feast
for Overall #1 Great Escape Season 8 and #9 Royal Feast.

" his voice resonates with authority" - Chen Zhe Yuan as Ying Gua is dubbed by Wei Yi Fan

it's not possible after working that long, even if his former agency took a lot.

Someone I know been watching lot of AI Chinese dramas, so now I try to see if I can spot it. They save a lot of money by using AI, as long as they can blend it in so it's not a sore thumb.

how old is the character in this story?

I thought in real life, women compete with each other more than help each other.

if there are no haters, some dramas 7.5 can be an 8 when remove the fake low scores. it can take several 10's to offset a 1.

I think the intro uses AI but is tastefully done very pleasing to look at.

MDL does not remove it. Users really can impact the score by flooding it. Douban is different. Douban might even wait until the last 2 days and only use those scores to rate it, so like users can bomb it and it won't count, and Douban usually waits a while to score it, even week after it aired. But Douban also has its flaws and can't be trusted completely. MDL is the worst. But don't depend on any ratings to decide whether you will like a drama or not or whether it's good or bad.

OK I only turned it on for a few seconds, but it doesn't deserve a 7.9. Why even put up a 7.9 honestly, MDL. I don't know what happened to his last drama, but I have faith Lü Hao Ji Ji . He will come through again.

He’s the same person, just transformed into someone entirely different. Because the two versions are so different, you can still compare them. They're really like two different people.
