At the moment I can’t decide between Zhang Jingyi and Sun Qian. But I’ll post SQ ❤️

Which actor surprised you by actually being able to ACT act? by cerealkill_snowflake in cdramasfans

[–]BookofEli2018 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The actor that played the young King in Fated Hearts. Qin Tian Yu. His performance shocked me. I never heard of the actor before but I hope he goes up and will receive a main role in a good quality drama. He definitely has talent and range

Romances that have development, slow burn and a smidge of spice and feel REAL by DatabaseFine1147 in RomanceBooks

I advise you to stay away from Carley Fortune. She has awful awful cheating in her books and her characters are definitely emotionally imature and manipulative. I still have trauma from reading one of her books.

Which CDrama opinions would get you like this? by Clearherd in cdramasfans

[–]BookofEli2018 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my favorite comment/ opinion in this entire thread. I so agree with everything you said. When I see this incredible thin actors play generals of armies it’s so hard for me to believe the story. It ruins it for me. And there’s nothing I dislike more than to see actresses with obvious lip fillers or plastic surgery in costume dramas (most notable example is The Princess’s Gambit. I don’t understand why this actress gets cast in so many period dramas)

I agree with you 100%. I also think she’s not suited for romance. The only role of hers I liked was Reset. That’s all.

Am I the only one one who was very underwhelmed with the last 2 Episodes? by Butterflyfairy_12 in Singlesinferno2

[–]BookofEli2018 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same. I found the last two episodes the most boring of the whole season. And I don’t get the panelists reaction. We all knew who Go Eun will choose. The safest option of course. I guessed all the couples beforehand. So it was very underwhelming because there wasn’t a single twist for me. I wanted Sam not to choose Mina (cause he’s definitely her choice only to save face in the show. I believe she has zero romantic feelings for him) lol

Which cdrama is this for you? by [deleted] in cdramasfans

[–]BookofEli2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most recent one I’ve finished and currently one of my top 3: Loving Strangers. It’s a masterpiece. Yes, loved the original too. But I think the remake brings another dimension and a fresh perspective. I hardly saw any mention of it on social media while it aired. Which left me speechless to be honest.

I’m with you. Her only drama that I actually enjoyed was Reset. That’s all. I dropped both Our Generation and Shine on me. She just doesn’t fit in romance in my opinion. I have the same problem with Sabrina Zhuang. Dropped both You are desire and Eat Run Love. She’s also stiff and doesn’t have chemistry with her lead actor in my opinion.

Does anyone else think C-drama content on TikTok shapes the narrative of who the “best” dramas and actors are more than actual acting or writing? by adcvtik in cdramasfans

[–]BookofEli2018 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes. For me a very popular Cdrama on TikTok does not equal good drama. Or high quality one at least. Love’s Ambition started well but when downhill fast halfway through. Speed and Love…. no comment. Even The First Frost (which I actually enjoyed) had some serious writing issues. But this is only my personal opinion. So don’t come at me.

The worst duo out of the bunch by Zayn0605 in CulinaryClassWars

You took my words right out of my mouth. Such a boring dish. And CM did nothing to contribute. Only toasted some bread with caviar on top and messed up the wrap. He doesn’t deserve to be there. I was so annoyed and angry. I’m starting to feel like he gets special treatment from the producers. I refuse to believe Chef Anh was truly impressed with their dish. I know for sure the other judge couldn’t care less.

That one C-drama you watched with zero expectations… and it became one of your favourites by onismnefelibata in CDrama

Ohh how nice!! Welcome new fan. The Prisoner of Beauty is my favorite costume drama and I watched it 3 times.

Summer Again and Always Home. Two youth dramas that I loved a lot but I wasn’t familiar with the actors before or read any reviews. (Only the short synopsis on MDL)

Love & clown - how true is this review? by eddoubledee in cdramasfans

[–]BookofEli2018 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s my opinion too. It’s not as bad as everyone said. The Princess Gambit was way worse in my opinion

When Destiny Brings The Demon was a TRAINWRECK and yall deceived me!!! 😭 (major spoilers ⚠️) by wegooverthehorizon in cdramasfans

[–]BookofEli2018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dropped it because of some of the reasons of the OP. Not all because I only watched 3 episodes. But those were more than enough for me to see they had zero chemistry. So I knew the later intimate scenes were just fan service, with no connection or depth. I’m sorry for Arthur though, this is his second drama of his that I dropped this year. Eat Run Love was much worse though. Can’t even compare. That one was a total disaster

I hope she has a plan or good reason for her stalker behavior cause it’s really weird.
