I don’t remember being a big defender of #Zanghai? It was a well made drama, but I didn’t love it like I do this one (I didn’t include it in my top 10 dramas from last year)

I think an issue with #Zanghai was that the further we got from his revenge origin story, the less his vengeance motive felt meaningful for (at least some of) the audience
Partly because of this it became a little repetitive & turgid in the last third
But it finished well, & it looked a treat

Interesting - in the #cdrama Cup final #Zanghai & #LegendoftheFemaleGeneral are separated by a single point! (54-53 when I last looked)
It’s a very close contest so far 👍

To cut a long story short - while #Zanghai is the superior production (in terms of it’s cinematography, it’s structured storytelling, Xiao Zhan’s acting, & some iconic scenes), I just loved the characters more in #LegendoftheFemaleGeneral 🥰

I’m guessing you’ve been trying to balance different genres & another well received historical costume drama (something like #Zanghai maybe) has edged it out…

D18: Favorite genre
Mystery, crime, investigation, thriller, or lots of tension.
Cdrama like #JoyOfLife, #Mobius, #MyJourneyToYou, #ZangHai.
Kdrama #GangnamBSide, #AgainMyLife, #WeakHeroClass, #StudyGroup, #GyeongseongCreature.
Difficult to find enough. Rec please 🥺

Ahh, I see! Yes, they were teasing this at the end of ep 27 with the oversized hare/rabbit, so I was expecting this
I don’t mind 😅 - I quite like a bit of fantasy mixed in with a sober story (it’s similar to #Zanghai in this respect)

Digital portrait of Zang Hai, from the C drama Legend of Zanghai. S man in Chinese funerary dress with blood on his face and hair somewhat disheveled, trailing from his topknot.
Finally finished this portrait of ZangHai. I think i have probably done more drawings of #XiaoZhan characters than of anyone else. Gong Jun is also up there, I guess.

Perhaps #zanghai could build one for you. He seems to be an expert in this kind of things..

Only good thing about #Zanghai was dropping it and starting #Feud. I’m like 10 minutes in and hella intrigued with this uncanny, dreamy vibe it’s got going on

Wow can’t do it. Dropping #ZangHai. Hate to say it, but I haven’t been able to get through an XZ drama without reverting to the recaps in a looooong while. Luckily he’s so beloved that his dramas always get recapped thoroughly 😂

Re: your Xiao Zhan fan friend - yes, Xiao Zhan fans & Wang Yibo fans are the most intense cdrama fans I’ve come across lol
If they are in a drama, then you will hear about it until your ears bleed 😅
Xiao Zhan is very good in #ZangHai though, so it’s very much deserved

I just think aspects of #Feud will appeal to you (from what I know)
#ZangHai is good too though, so I don’t want to put you off. & it’s great to have a drama-group you can talk with about an ongoing drama

I’m avoiding #Feud because I think if I switch I won’t come back to #Zanghai. My cdrama-watching friend group all watched it, so it’s a little bit like homework for me to watch it too. I’m hoping once he starts interacting with the FL and the marquis second son more, I’ll be more invested

Btw, if #ZangHai isn’t hitting for you & you’re looking around for something else, you may enjoy the complicated plot in #Feud - it’s a drama that on the one hand is easy enough to watch, but on the other requires continual reappraisal & reflection. It’s quite unusual in this respect

11 episodes into #ZangHai and I’m only mildly interested. Not sure if I don’t care about the mystery or what, but I’m plodding forward and hoping something strikes a chord with me soon.

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?
*gahd, i'm gonna be kidnapped for 40 episodes.
