The case was wrapping up but the father has to notice a new clue. His son is not well, and he is stuck on a clue he can't even remember and the case has wrapped. If only he weren’t so good at his job. Even Li Min told him, he should pay more attention to what's going on at home.
The music at the start of every episode sets the mood. It fits so well. This is a heavy story. It's impossible not to feel tears when you watch this drama.
He had his hair all cut off at the end of Fire Investigator filming, it hadn’t grown back yet. He still looks…
Isn’t that tanning method made with a lot of alcohol that can damage the skin? From the way it was described, it sounded like they used a much harsher process than what’s normally done.
my search results says there is a "2026 release freeze" due to Youku prioritizing romance and costume blockbusters affecting standalone modern crime/investigation dramas, like fire Investigator, but Youku’s White Night Theatre still get airing slots
unfortunately i watched her video about the drama. what makes her qualified as expert / drama critique. such a…
Gosh, I’m sorry to bring her in. I was so shocked she had nothing bad to say about this performance, but it was actually backhanded. She frames him in a very negative light and personal too. (can we just delete this entire conversation please?)
you know, some of these analyses are far more depth than the ones I see online
Even reading the reviews brings tears to my eyes. The story and performances are that powerful, and people describe the emotions so beautifully. For a drama that had no hype no promotion, it feels like it could spread. On Weibo, users with tens of millions of followers are discussing it.
I don’t know how people who write analyses and reviews manage to draw so many details about the characters. I think they glean them from the actors’ performances.
There has been an outpouring of praise for Xu Kai’s performance. He’s touched so many hearts to the point of heartbreak. They praise the entire cast as professional level of acting. There are some genuinely serious reviews out there.
There's a really excellent review on Deng Enxi's performance too: "Many fans commented that episodes 14 and 15 left them speechless, like they had something bottled up inside them, something they wanted to say but couldn't. Why did they feel that way? In cutting-edge literary theory, poetry has been described as "thoughts, the throat of life, longing to be expressed, but unable to." The same principle applies to high-quality series. When viewers finish watching and experience the complexity of human nature and the diverse paths of life, they evoke the same feeling of "wanting to speak but unable to." Remember, only truly great works can evoke this feeling, and Eight Hundred is such a masterpiece. Deng Enxi's performance deserves serious analysis and praise; this is the image a truly skilled actor should possess!"
People are calling this drama a severely underrated drama. Its only weakness is insufficient publicity.
My god did you guys hear she’s attending a singing variety show, The Treasured Voice. I am so surprised bc this…
I love her singing. She has an inspirational voice very pretty voice. I love her dresses; there's a kind of innocence and elegance at the same time, very classy.
