In #TheLegendofZangHai there’s a beautiful sequence at night where the leads share a boat during a lantern festival 🏮✨
Alas, I can’t find a YouTube clip of it, but it appears briefly in this 30 sec TikTok edit (shown in the quote-post)

@dramaddict.bsky.social is happily vacationing in East Asia, so she probably won’t contribute her list - but knowing what she’s praised previously I am confident she would highlight #TheLegendofZangHai (just kidding! 😅)

Oh this is helping me rank mine too…
#FlourishedPeony is an easy 🥇
And I think I agree about #TheGlory at 🥈 because it had such a worthwhile theme woven so well within the story (even if half the viewing audience disagrees lol)
And I think #PrisonerOfBeauty takes 🥉 for cracking me up so much

I’ve started back my rewatch of #TheStoryOfMingLan w a new set of eyes & after watching many #cdrama
It’s interesting to see natural lighting choices that remind me of #TheLegendofZangHai
Also a story completely centered @ 1 extended family's interactions & marriages
70+ eps no problem - then

I’m not quite picking up all the symbolism either. Is there a thread like what I followed when I was watching #TheLegendofZangHai? That thread was amazing in giving historical context & explaining all the symbolism & where it may have originated.

It's why I'm constantly drawn to the careful thought & attention paid to every little nuance..
every angle of every shot
And when the actors & crew set out to weave a story carved out of deeper, richer clay?

Well, this answers my other questions:
~ Why they featured CJX singing Opera....and he's good @ it too! Was that a coincidence??
Now we know!!!

CJX being a fan of Kun Opera came from the actor Xing Minshan, who was originally a Kun Opera artist.
He suggested this specific piece to co-director Cao Yiwen, who thought it was a great backdrop to show Zang Hai's plotting, CJX's viciousness and ZLY's final struggle.

The use of Kun Opera in the rest of the episode is absolute genius and really elevates the whole thing alongside the great cinematography and direction and performances.
So let's talk a bit about this particular piece.

観たいものが重なりまくっているので、一つ一つ片づけることに。まずはほぼ同時に配信された「折腰」と「蔵海伝」。どちらもある種の「権力闘争」が描かれるけれど、テイストはだいぶ違った。 ここから先はストーリーのネタバレが含まれます。ご注意ください。 --------------------------------- 「蔵海伝」微博より 将軍も唯の悪役ではないところが魅力 「蔵海伝」のテーマは意外に現代的...
