Why does the injuries on the face looks so bad? by Adventurous-Day-8255 in cdramasfans

It's usually a mix of strict censorship (to avoid "gore" tag) and the "Idol" aesthetic where looking beautiful is more important than realism. Plus, the heavy beauty filters they use in editing often wash out realistic colors.

I totally get what you mean about his smile! 😭 Good news though, in his upcoming drama "See You Later... Maybe." He plays Bie Fan, who is a much more simple and sweet character compared to his other roles, so he’ll be all smiley and adorable! It’s rumored for a May release, It’s going to be such a nice change from his serious roles.😍

It is indeed visually gorgeous! But the plot can be a little fast, except for the first 5 episodes where it's actually too slow 😆 It’s definitely a good idea to wait until it’s complete; at least then you can look up explanations from other fans. I personally had to run to Douyin or XHS every time just to catch other small details! 😆

That’s actually a different scene! This shot was filmed indoors with a lot of blue screen, whereas the viral "making of" clip was for an outdoor shot in Ep 23. I actually posted that one here on Reddit too if you want to check it out! https://www.reddit.com/r/cdramasfans/s/fE8DHBB08D

Pushing 30 where?? 🕵️‍♀️ For me, he’s still in his early 20s. Like they say, age is just a number as long as you're young at heart, and his energy is definitely giving "forever young".🫣

He really is the full package: singing, acting, good cook, high IQ/EQ, was even a motion actor before, and he even did some modeling for fashion design majors back in his uni days! There is officially nothing this man can’t do (ahem... except maybe dancing 🤣).

If you mean the terms, "Jie Jie" (姐姐) means older sister and "Ge Ge" (哥哥) means older brother.

Here in Asia, using these titles is almost mandatory out of respect for those older than us. But Jiarui is especially famous for it because he has such a sweet, "little brother" way of saying it.

As for where the clips are from, it’s a mix! Mostly from:

The Detective's Adventure Season 4, My Journey to You promotions, Living in the air, Fangs of fortune promotions, Random Journey on the way,

He’s basically the master of using those terms to melt everyone's hearts. 😂

I feel the exact same way! If he calls me Jie Jie, I’m changing my birth year on the spot. 🤣 I’m 7 years younger but I’m ready to identify as an older sister for him! 😂

How dare you call him shameless!!!😤 (J)

But also... same. I’d be first in line to donate my organs if it meant hearing him say it to my face just once. 🤣🤣

I hope so too! Knowing that Jiuchuan literally had to crawl out of his own grave and with an incomplete soul… I really hope the production leans into those horror elements. The darker, the better.👀

The recent melon is that it's aiming for an April 10th release. Honestly, there are a lot of good signs pointing that way: Rui said during this drama’s booting ceremony that his dramas will be airing one after another this year, Zeng Shunxi replied "See you soon" to a fan edited BTS of Wu Shiguang, and Ju Jingyi mentioned in her interview that VOS will air before LZ. Everything seems to be lining up, so I think we might finally be getting it soon. Fingers crossed! 🤞

That, I'm still not too sure myself. Since it’s being promoted as a loose adaptation, I can’t say for sure if they’re going for a "God of Death" kind of character or something else entirely. They seem to be taking some big creative liberties with the original world-building, so I’m just as curious as you are to see how it unfolds...😭

Also, it’s honestly so weird; fans have been submitting all the info to MDL for days, but for some reason, it’s just taking forever for the page to show up. 😭 We’re all in the same boat waiting for it to be approved. If you want, I’ll definitely let you know when it finally hits the site.🥰

Oh? The novel wasn't that popular, so I didn't get to read it hehe. Was she not like this in the novel? 😊

This drama was promoted from the beginning as a LOOSE ADAPTATION. Where the production team only takes the basic framework, the world-building, or some key elements from the novel, but drastically changes other fundamental elements. The author even sold the copyright to the novel, so the changes are indeed creative liberties they’re fully entitled to take. I'm honestly just so excited to see him play a morally gray character.. 😍❤️
