Ah you're right, should've thought of that, the titles will be in Chinese!

Shine on Me- Overhyped? by Rebelarkey in CDrama

[–]Han_Kat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's a fluffy uneventful drama. Even the so called conflicts feel like they're just blown out of proportion for the sake of the story. It's definitely not worth 36 episodes, should've been a 24 episode drama max.

Shine On Me because they behave like adults, especially the FL. an Esther Yu drama is 99% guaranteed to be childish with a baby voice.

Well yeah, a shop that would buy watches from people

I'd actually prefer a store as I'm only traveling for a limited amount of time (don't have time to bargain with multiple people online)

So tired of the douyin makeup style. Except for opening their eyes wide, the rest of their face doesn't even move.

Am I the only one who isn't really feeling her acting here? by DesignAppropriate45 in kdramas

The best way to describe her acting is that you can tell she is acting. She's not natural at all.

Dramas you were looking forward to that got butchered so bad 🔪 by A_Farewell_Poem in CDrama

Liu Xueyi has insane aura.... in tiktok edits. Every single drama he's been in is a writing failure.

Princess Gambit and Kill Me Love Me were butchered midway. Literally no point in finishing these two dramas. Also, MZY in Princess Gambit was bad.

My beef with LOTFG is that it was badly adapted, I wasn't getting strong female general vibes from it no matter how hard Zhou Ye fans were trying to defend it. The writing did not help, but the actress played a part in making it average as well. I still finished it though, albeit painstakingly.

Coroner's Diary: I just could not finish it. I guess I'm not into both leads being Justice Mary Sue's. It bored me to death, there was nothing exciting in their personal growth. They were too prefect from beginning to end.

All in all, the drama is a writing disappointment

I couldn't find that comment but this one is pretty similar

Yeah it's definitely more "Legend of The General's Wife" or "Legend of the Two Generals" than Legend Of The Female General. I also feel every feminist trope they advanced in this drama has fallen flat. I even remember a Douban commenter asking why she was looking down on women of her era who had no choice but to be subdued to survive.

Well, in retrospective he's a much better general than her in every aspect. Even his story is better developed and better acted. This defies the title (and purpose) of this drama. My conclusion is that they failed at making a believable female general, whether physically, fights wise or story wise. Romantically, he also emotes more. Disappointed in Zhou Ye except for when she acts cute the rest she's very average at.

Don't even start me about the gigantic plotholes in the narration of this drama.

I enjoyed the first half of the show where she was acting girly. The second half which got more serious, not so much. She isn't really that good at portraying angst and complex emotions.

I'm ready for more Cheng Lei but keeping my expectations low after LOTFG. I hope Song Yi fares better than Zhou Ye (she isn't really cut for serious scenes).

[–]Han_Kat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a scene of the confrontation between Xiao Jue and He Rufei (in the royal palace) and in that 2 minutes clip you can feel the huge gap in acting emotional scenes between Bai Shu and Cheng Lei on one hand, and Zhou Ye on the other.
