I am sorry where is it written that people are only allowed to write flowery comments and not to write about the…
GFZY bought the copyrights so they can do whatever the fuck they want. Even if they cast old men to act as JC and GF, it's still none of our business. Suck that up. Instead of sulking on a platform none of the production team can see, why don't you give them a call? Or even better, buy the damn copyrights from them.
As a fan of the original novel, I'm also pained by the fact that the romance would be toned down for censorship. However, I don't think it's right to criticize the actors and production team even before they start filming because they're just doing their jobs. Give them a chance to showcase whatever they got. Even if GFZY didn't buy the rights, another company will. Saye is bound to have a live adaptation. If you're gonna continue to be butthurt about it, just LEAVE. The exit is on your left.
Zhang Ruoyun absolutely nailed Fan Xian! I would have definitely dropped Joy of Life if the role was played by someone else of a younger age who can't act. I don't mind about Zhang's age at all.
Ma'am, do your research before spitting out nonsense or you'll embarrass yourself again.
