Needless to say all #cdramas need to end like this

#Cdrama Spoilers for #LoveOfTheDivineTree

In a sea of webnovel adaptations, Kill My Sins stood out for its original script, mature and layered characters and how it respected its viewers' intelligence.

Reasons why I don't talk about politics on social media:

a) you don't need to read my dumb thoughts about politics
b) I don't want to read your replies to my dumb thoughts about politics either

Most importantly

c) Cdrama actors are way more fun to talk about

Ps I get to see the gorgeous Liu Xueyi on TV soon. My brain only has space to process this anyway

I guess it's official! 念无双 A Moment But Forever is coming to iQIYI this month! Pls god can you actors make sure you don't break the law in the meantime...

Legit my favourite character and actor in Si Jin right now. He's carrying the entire show on his little furry shoulders, I swear.

I thought I'd like #SiJin right off the bat for Zhang Wanyi reasons, but alas, the first episode was a mess because the editing was a mess and the writers or director thought it wasn't necessary to establish our characters in the first episode. Instead, we were shown a cascade of events that made our heads spin. We weren't given any anchor to really care for the characters.

I think if it was set up like Blossom, whose writers lovingly set up our characters in such a way that we're invested in their second lives, I would've been kinder.

I'll give it a few more episodes...but I'm having trouble focusing lol

This drama was filmed long ago that Liu Xueyi looks unrecognizable . Apparently rumors are that it will air in April. (I will believe it when I see it. This same rumour appeared repeatedly last year lol) They reshot it with a new actress. The original lead actress Yuan Bingyuan didn't pay her taxes so was cancelled

I will watch #Filter for the fluffy Alpaca

Before #Xianxia got popular in the West be cause of dramas like Till the End of the Moon and Love Between Fairy and Devil, we watched these types of xianxias, which are based on Chinese mythology. This is 八仙过海 "Eight Immortals Cross the Sea".
Back then, xianxia was about immortals saving the world, not about them falling in love .

This needs to win 2025's best bitch face award

I admit it. I watch a Zhang Wanyi guzhuang* drama no matter how repetitive they are, and how much he looks the same in each production lol.

Si Jin, premiering on March 1, a rebirth drama

* Costumed drama

I work in #tech and I think fellow tech workers can agree with me that things are a tad rocky right now and it isn't gentle on your nerves. That's why I am so glad I have my lescape in #Cdramas.

I am glad for streaming tech despite the whole "you will not own this and be happy thing" because it made them so much more accessible. I've been watching #Cdrama since the 1980s but could only rely on what I could get my hands on. Although Malaysia had access to Chinese dramas, it was mostly in Cantonese and since I can't understand it nor read the Chinese subs I can't watch them properly.

I even bought DVDs when I visited China for work! Or through, er, fandom efforts if you know what I mean. I even became a fansubber for a while. Now I have endless access to Cdramas when they were so hard to get before. Myandarin has also improved by leaps and bounds thanks to listening to it all day haha

In #Xianxia, the road to love is littered with ... amnesia.

Dear #Cdrama writers, just because a character turns evil, it doesn't mean they have to announce it to the world by wearing dark eyeliner and black robes, ya know?

I am at this stage with #LoveOfTheDivineTree but I can't stop watching

Mysterious.

Midway thoughts https://dramatea88.wordpress.com/2025/02/18/love-of-the-divine-tree-mid-review/

I've seen up to episode 24 of Love of the Divine Tree. Let me just say that Deng Wei is challenging Cheng Yi's position as "blood spitter expert". Also, I really dislike our heroine's Hogwarts era and there's so many things that got on my nerves but ... I still can't wait for the next episode. Weird?

"Oh no, Master is too weak so my spiritual energy can't enter his body!"

*So shoves in spiritual energy with a kiss".

Yup, make sense.

Rather super convenient. Together with "the cultivation will fail if you feel emotions" thing. Ah, xianxia

Not only do we have to worry that our favorite Cdrama actors pay their taxes properly, we have to also worry they don't commit crimes and go to jail

Because the entire drama will be affected by one actor, no matter how insignificant. It's not due to censorship only, by the way, but the harsh public opinion of Chinese folks . It's all about "face", basically!

The drama in peril due to Li Mingde's nonsense: Legend of the Female General.

Everyone is spitting blood left and right in episode 10

How many times are we going to make Su Yishui throw up blood?

Writers: YESSSS

Ok, regular blood spitting aside, I'm enjoying #LoveOftheDivineTree, but there are some flaws. Sometimes the dubbing quality drops for some characters (very weird), and then there's this annoying plot device where some characters just tells you what's going on. People don't really talk like this lol.
But hey, the drama is carried by our two main leads who are quite good, especially the one playing Mu Qingge. She's a natural, being able to play seductive and powerful, and innocent and ditzy effortlessly. A rare talent, even better than the traffic actors with bajilion views.

Love the Tang Dynasty. Women appreciated pretty men to the hilt and knew what to do with them back then

Anyway, #KillMySins is pretty heavy with the plot details, so I need to rewatch episode 2 to remember what happened
