#EYDC2025 Day 16

Definitely Wang Yinglu. I haven’t watched Twelve Letters yet but my mom did so I saw bits of it and man, her acting is really insane. Plus she really showcased her range this year with Twelve Letters, WDBTB, I am Nobody S2 and Yummy Yummy Yummy.
Wang Yinglu in Twelve Letters where she plays Ye Haitang. This is the scene where Ye Haitang gets physically abused by her father. Her hair is a mess and her eyes are red with tears but she is also angry. The same scene as the first picture but here Ye Haitang’s father has left and Ye Haitang is sitting on the floor angry and shocked (?). Screenshot of Chen Duo and Feng Baobao’s fight in the water in I Am Nobody S2 Another scene from I Am Nobody S2. Feng Baobao standing on the hood of a car peering back at the driver after she crashed it to a stop.

This one hands down goes to "Legend of the Female General". Specifically this moon poster, although the dark one with both of them in armour is also really good.

Oops super late but it's Su Muyu and Mu Yumo. I love that they canonically shut down any speculation of romance between them. They're really family. Also the scene where Mu Yumo and Bai Hehuai help Su Muyu revealed an unexpected side of Su Muyu which I love haha
Su Muyu carrying away Mu Yumo while Mu Yumo wields his umbrella and deflects Tang Lianyue's attacks. Mu Yumo telling Bai Hehuai that the success of their plan "depends on the tacit bond between Muyu and me." Mu Yumo telling Bai Hehuai that she and Su Muyu have cheated death together so many times. Su Muyu holding Mu Yumo's spider and being disgusted because he knows he has to ingest it to ingest the medicine on it.

Hmm I guess this one goes to “A Dream Within a Dream”. They used a lot of jokes, memes, poetry, and cinema in the show, which are highlighted in the thread below. It’s quite fun to read about

Hmm I think the oldest I tried watching was Sell Your Haunted House which was from 2021. Currently on hold bc I have other dramas with higher priority but it started out pretty fun
Poster of Sell Your Haunted House, with the male lead (In Beom, played by Jung Yonghwa) and female lead (Ji Ah, played by Jang Nara) are looking at the camera. The POV is such that you, the audience, are looking through a door peephole and they’re standing outside

Honestly, all the secondary characters of A Dream Within a Dream were outstanding but Nan Rui stood out to me in particular. Although his character development was rushed, the change was so so lovely to see. From the childish, spoiled prince to a brave, lovable younger brother.

#EYDC2025 Day 7 (Part 2)

Fave male character - Su Muyu from Blood River. An assassin who stubbornly clings to the righteous principles that his father taught him despite the obstacles life throws at him. He's strong, he's smart, and he'd give his life for the people he loves. I love him so much.

#EYDC2025 Day 7 (Part 1)

Fave female character - Ye Ping'an from Kill My Sins. She's smart, cunning, and uncompromising. She has no fighting abilities so she has to use her brain to get out of tricky situations, which makes her unpredictable and fun to watch.

(Highly highly rec this drama btw)

I dropped "The First Night with the Duke". I didn't really vibe with the humour. Like, the -- what was it? -- the tea party? was kinda painful to watch lol I enjoyed the 5 minutes of angst that followed but aside from the humour, it would've been nice to have more angst

In terms of very picturesque shots, I'd say this one goes to Blood River

Li Yitong! Watched her act for the first time in ADWAD and she is so so good. She’s great at balancing comedy and drama, and her voice acting is really good too. Plus I love how bubbly she is behind the scenes. I’m alr excited for Gu Le Feng Hua Lu and The Vanishing Beauty.

Omg what do you mean Su Changhe gave her his dagger and is entertaining her while they're all anxiously waiting for Su Muyu. Man I love them

(Ep 22) LMFAO I wonder if the hilt has ever been modified like this
Su Changhe saying, “I had Xie Qianji refit it.” “I don’t use a longsword,” “and lugging the Dormant Dragon Sword around” “is a pain.”

I mean objectively, yes but also SCREAMING bc Su Changhe said it

But also seriously bro, you think you’re above THEEEE Su Muyu? The last Kui? The guy who was set to become the Patriarch? Uhm??
Su Luandan, lying on the floor bleeding, saying he followed Su Changhe hoping to become head of the Su family He continues, “But you handed the position to Su Muyu!” Su Changhe laughs, “Who do you think you are,” “to imagine yourself above Su Muyu?”
