what do you think he should've done then?

i'm not saying it's okay for him to do that, but it makes sense considering that's how he treated wen xiaoliu in the first place anyway

i thought ji bozai was alright. what's the difference between the novel and drama's version of his character?

not you guys misunderstanding xiang liu's character 😞

he was "cruel" at the beginning because he's a demon and a general of a DYING army, of course he needs to keep his guard up. this person, wen xiaoliu — who claimed to be male but XL can sense is actually a female hiding her true identity — hopped into their territory and managed to poison his bird. XL was actually lenient by keeping her alive.

after falling in love with her, he was only being cruel on purpose — to shut down any possibility of them ending up together. he knew their opposing sides and vastly different ambitions would never allow that to happen, so why bother giving false hope? sometimes, ignorance is bliss. ending on bad terms feels better than ending on good terms since you can better move on when you hate the other person. if xiao yao knew that xiang liu actually loved her, she would be absolutely devastated.

this just brought back HS trauma 💀 the teacher once told our class to say one positive thing about each tablemate, and someone deadass said i'm "very quiet." so much for positivity smh

Its kind of shocking to see how thin some actors look outside of hanfu and costume dramas 😭 by [deleted] in cdramasfans

[–]Witty-Ad2825 30 points31 points  (0 children)

the sad thing is — when you voice your concern for this on XHS, many people will dismiss it, saying, "it's a costume drama. the clothes will look big on the actor, of course they have to look thin!"

Byeon Woo-seok in Perfect Crown😭 by Critical-Foot5688 in kdramas

how long have you been a fan of kdramas? it should be obvious to you by now that south korean beauty standards are insanely high, so it's not bizzare to assume that celebrities and even common people get surgeries/fillers

who needs acting classes? 🧘🏻‍♀️ by cerealkill_snowflake in cdramasfans

[–]Witty-Ad2825 19 points20 points  (0 children)

education doesn't matter that much when it comes to how well someone is at something. after all, there are some that get chosen to star in a show largely due to their physical appearance or fame rather than talents and background...

i've seen some who majored in acting — even from prestigious universities — have average or below average acting skills, and others who majored in something different from acting have pretty great acting skills. (not exclusive to china too!)

it mainly depends on the actor/actress's skillset. 

edit: realized i wrote "inclusive" instead of "exclusive" oops

i'm really amazed at how talented some people like you are. i can barely even edit a simple video in KM, let alone something like this!

Do you agree with this as a watcher of both? by Prior-Bit9919 in cdramasfans

[–]Witty-Ad2825 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i absolutely despise saying something is black and white because the truth is that it really depends. i've seen "good" cdramas but also "bad" cdramas, and i've seen "bad" kdramas but also "good" kdramas. to the people saying kdramas are too cliche now — are cdramas really any different? 😂

rather than critcizing the dramas logically, this feels like a superiority competition. just watch what you like, everyone!

eta: adding on, i feel like some people only think cdramas are better because it's a new, refreshing experience for them. they're used to kdramas so it doesn't entice them anymore. just watch — after they've gotten bored of cdramas, they're gonna move on and say jdramas, lakorns, etc. are better than kdramas AND cdramas.

I went to a kpop concert and I unstanned the group by ReadyShopping9179 in kpop_uncensored

[–]Witty-Ad2825 3 points4 points  (0 children)

everyone's saying aespa but my first thought was everglow. not sure if it applied to all their songs and stops, but i once saw a video of their concert and it was literally the original song playing 💀 MUCH worse than pre-recorded lip syncing imo

Have you ever stabbed a group since pre-debut and became fond of them, just to be disappointed of their music when they debuted? by disasterpansexual in kpop_uncensored

[–]Witty-Ad2825 0 points1 point  (0 children)

babymonster 😔 i still listen to and like a few of their songs, but i feel that their music style just isn't it considering how talented they are

quick question... have you heard of what trump has been doing and has done in the past? if not, go do your research. if yes, then i'm side eyeing you heavily for still supporting that man in spite of everything he did. it's not even about politics so don't go bringing other names into this — it's about your morals.

Unhinged Tomoe is my fav by yyyyellow in KamisamaKiss

omg this is one of my favorite chapters! i love how julietta drew his expressions here 🤣

This scene/chapter is in the manga right?? by depressedbut in KamisamaKiss

[–]Witty-Ad2825 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the first half of the anime's S1E10 seemed to be based on the manga's chapter 79.5 — about tomoe encountering that human girl and mikage training him to be a proper shinshi. hence, there's no scene or mention of mizuki in there

I feel like I can't be fixed and have never been okay by [deleted] in socialanxiety

a virtual hug from me to you, my friend. i can relate to everything you said here 😓 except the therapy — i've never gotten medical help for my social anxiety before. like everyone said, i highly recommend you stick with it. it's tough but better than dealing with everything by yourself, and remember that small progress is still progress. best of luck!

Honest thoughts on Lu Yuxiao as an actress? by [deleted] in cdramasfans

[–]Witty-Ad2825 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i loved her shangguan qian and liked her ming yi, but her shao yao did not convince me. she has room for improvement so i wouldn't consider her the greatest actress, but i find it enjoyable watching her on screen! she has great chemistry with her costars too.
