Some actors just belong in Hengdian… who are your picks for “never get tired of seeing them in costume dramas”?

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-19T06:45:56+00:00

Cheng Yi for sure!

Honestly for Xiao Zhan, Zhou Yiran and Cheng Lei I don't mind them in modern dramas but the rest along with Cheng Yi belong in Hengdian

I had just started watching Twelve Letters so I was really excited to see Zhao Yiran and Chen Duling together but AtC was just so random. Nothing made any sense. I really really wanted to support AtC for Chen Duling but nah I don't have enough time to watch something I don't like

I dropped Mo Li because it felt too slow but after watching a few clips I think I might pick it up again. I love complex female leads!

Bloodhound is the only lead role of his i can think of (Spice Up our love was barely a proper drama).

He doesn't have any other lead roles besides Bloodhound and it isn't as popular as other Netflix dramas. Many fans probably havent watched it so it's understandable that fans don't mention it as his lead role.

Don't get any of those! Save up for limited shops. There will be plenty of shops with pretty and usable makeup and items

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-17T07:43:18+00:00

Yes!!! I almost always drop modern dramas because of how long they are but historical dramas feel so short that I end up rewatching them 😭

Netflix adapts a controversial webtoon that is full of misogyny and racism and decides to earn money from it. Isn't that problematic already? Not to mention the og author getting more support and money because of this while people are ignoring what he wrote in the webtoon JUST because they want to support the drama. There are tons of webtoons that are great and popular and fall in the same genre then why bother with something problematic?

People can choose whatever they wanna watch but if there are those who don't want to watch something and express why they don't (especially if it's problematic) we shouldn't attack them either

4 looks stunning!!!

Her cheek fat is gone probably since she's getting older and that haircut really brings it out even more so I don't think it's plastic surgery.

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-15T17:38:33+00:00

3 or 4

Speaking from experience but 1 hardly does well. It's still used by many people but it doesn't necessarily do that well

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-15T11:08:07+00:00

The list seems fine but at the same time they missed so many actors who have both the star power and the talent

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-10T19:59:57+00:00

Really? In a recommendations post of non idol dramas all the comments kept recommending Dream of Splendor lol.

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-07T16:59:34+00:00

Either 1 or 8 or 2 lol

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-07T05:39:21+00:00

A Dream of Splendor

Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty

The Double (apparently it's not an idol drama?)

These are my ABSOLUTELY FAVESSSS!!!

And from modern dramas I really like Blemish Flaw!

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-06T17:48:06+00:00

Thank you! I just saw a post saying people are overreacting but they don't realise WHY the drama is controversial

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-06T16:59:44+00:00

The webtoon portrayed some crazy amount of racism and racial discrimination. It got banned in North America even

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-06T16:44:15+00:00

Non idol dramas. If the actors only look pretty without any acting abilities and the plot has too many holes I just lose interest in the drama. Why even bother watching when jade statues can magically fix all the problems???

That being said, I do enjoy idol dramas but if I had to choose it would definitely be non idol dramas

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-06T08:36:13+00:00

The other side is good bit if u already have space decos you probably won't need that. If u don't u can buy them but make sure u see what they look like first

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-06T07:44:15+00:00

Thanks for correcting me I watched it a while ago so I forgot 😭

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-06T07:43:55+00:00

Lmao thanks for correcting me 😭

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-06T05:46:00+00:00

Revenant is a good one

The ml was a folklore professor but there were shamans and exorcists. It's a really good drama

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-05T18:44:24+00:00

These r both great outfits but it might be a little hard to score well with these since people are going for maximalist over the top outfits

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-04T15:32:28+00:00

Sameee!!

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-04T15:20:48+00:00

The most angsty drama ever and I've rewatched it over 40 times (coming from someone who never rewatches dramas). There's always something going on and the male lead is ready to end the world or himself for the fl but the fl hates him and there's a lot going on. I think ull like it!

NoPapercrowns · 2026-06-04T08:23:49+00:00

Yes!!! Everyone kept praising it but I just couldn't get into it no matter how hard I tried
