[ + 2025 ] <\/strong>Dongyu is very good, Xu Kai<\/a> is very good. Every actor is great, even the special effects are good. This drama is really being attacked by the whole internet. Various discussions were bombarded by the scoldings of people who didn’t even watch the drama. The blurred pictures and tapes that were shared by them were brought to the spotlight. They have obviously never watched the drama, and even pretended to be a fan of the book. Recently, the number of people who really liked the show has gradually increased, but today it started again. The vague video of the martyrdom scene was sent out, and the male and female protagonists got attacked again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[ + 2100 ] <\/strong>I hope that the aesthetic taste of the domestic audience would stop being be so monotonous, and that domestic actors will not be judged based on looks again. The diversity of faces and the tolerance for beauty is especially needed in our market and hard to come by. If a successful young and promising actress continues to be still trapped in the criticism of beauty under some pathological aesthetic standard, then I can only think that this is a sad era to live in. Obviously there are so many adjectives to describe a person, but you are only willing to look at her in the most superficial light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[ + 997 ] <\/strong>Sister producer, I have watched 14 episodes carefully so far, and for each episode I swipe for it twice. I can see the diligence of the crew and the actors. The drama’s reception among the antis in the first week is still good, and it has started attracting drama fans. I hope that the drama publicity team can study the marketing strategy again, and not let the good dramas be buried<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[ + 663 ]<\/strong> Support, support, and I feel that Dongyu is so natural and impressive!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[ + 441 ] <\/strong>This drama is an elaborate work, but at the beginning, the antis have disrupted the pace of the drama and its hype. The publicity team has no power to fight back. If the drama’s marketing team still wants the show to come back to life, then hurry change the publicity and distribution marketing team. Be fast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[ + 213 ]<\/strong> We are now guessing every day, what mistakes will be made today to hand a knife over to the antis. They will attack the protagonist, the plot, and even the screenwriter’s mother. It is an eye-opener for me as it is the first time I watched the a drama that full of such operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
