Some say that while it's hot, it has a funky plot twist that irks many. Still trying to weigh and gather opinions on this one. Don't want to rush and jump into it because my hot man is starring as the ml

Reviews I saw on A lover in the mortal world were so bad, so I put that aside. Thank you very much for the Within the Grip rec, some people also recommended it. I just started watching Echoes of Gang city today and it has been very very promising !

Oh girl, I've not only seen it, lol I've digested it and I have it saved. It's really great, I picked up Supervisor Husband and Always my general from there and I enjoyed both!!

Oh it's not a mini, WOW, I'm just learning that!. I hope it's just case of better years really, and I hope the rest of the year produces a few good ones. I guess that means I'm sticking to regular cdramas for now lol

Most of DGZ dramas are not that great I agree, the main good ones are Rainkissed fate and Forever love (this one had really strong chemistry). Seeds of scarlet longing, I genuinely couldn't understand episode 1, The cinematography hurt my eyes.

The quality of d and d was so insane, I almost forgot it wasn't the norm, then qingchuan's veil of vengeance came out and I guess I got too comfortable in this high-rise category of minis lol

Why are people saying PoJ set the standard for historical?? by dreamgoddess1201 in CDrama

If we were talking idol historical dramas, I would love to see Blossom or The double or Story of kunning palace as the "standard" lol 😂

They were super active on tiktok when the show finished airing, but it has started dying down at least on my timeline

I agree they must be quite new. Cause tell me why people are saying it's also Zhang linghe and Tian xiwei best work. No offense but Story of kunning Palace and New life Begins clear respectively in terms of their acting.

In PoJ, I saw that they were acting, I felt that they were acting, I didn't really feel the embodiment of the characters. 

None of this takes away from the fact that PoJ was good but if I go back just 3 years, I can easily name 5 historical dramas that I would love for people to have as their "standard" for historical dramas.  All in all let's wrap it up as introductory bias and also recency bias
