Li Chen Lan wasn't a character that particularly stood out for me while I read the novel. Despite being a new actress, Bailu's acting as LZY has my stamp of approval! It only took 2 scenes in episode 3(?) for me to stan this drama. Thus, if the LZY portrayal here did not suit my taste then with no hesitation I am out. You don't come across a female protagonist as fiery and badass as Lu Zhao Yao very often. Like every other live action, I wasn't very confident if it was a depiction that I wanted to watch. Zhao Yao, is a name I am very familiar with because I have been there since the birth of the web novel. Instead we were only given a couple of minutes. Why not let her perform the ending scene to its fullest? Let us the viewers feel the pain to its fullest, too. My point is, you have such wonderful actress in your hand. Her conclusion would be: I was the one who brought him to his death from the beginning. All she knew, she was the one who asked for the sword, and she was also the one that used the sword to kill him. But at that point of time, it would not matter for Zhao Yao. Li Chen Lan brought out Liu He sword on his own choice, correct. The pain, the disbelief, the desperation, and above all anger to herself. That would be one hell of performance if nailed well. I can only imagine how she would act in a screen when she needed to defend her believe that Li Chen Lan was still alive when the memory of her thrusting Liu He sword through Li Chen Lan body was still very fresh in her mind. You can see in the way she smiled, walked, and talked when she was in that white mourning clothes. The actor/actress needs to emote with their whole body. Acting for this type of screen is not easy I think because the sadness that must be emoted is beyond tears. She is the first actress that I have seen that can emote the devastated state of mind that well. I believe any sane person in Wan Lu Men would think that Li Chen Lan was dead, so what had happened that made them never say that aloud in front of Zhao Yao?īai Lu acting in the end arc was very good. In her conversation with Sima Rong, I got the feel that Sima Rong was very careful and gentle when he brought up Li Chen Lan issue. What happened next? Did she return to Wan Lu Men heart broken? Or she refused to return at all? And how did she get this believe that Li Chen Lan would come back? Because she didn't find the body? Well, Li Chen Lan body could have been turned to ash like had happened to Luo Ming Xuan. In the point 3, Zhao Yao was in craze moment, trying to find Li Chen Lan remains only to fail.
I wish that the drama took time to elaborate what had happened in between point 3 and 4. Zhao Yao in white clothes, waiting for Li Chen Lan comes back Zhao Yao desperately trying to find Li Chen Lan bodyĤ. Li Chen Lan - Zhao Yao fight in sword tombģ. If we followed the original ending, the timeline should be:ġ. The legends, I believe we have seen all the footage available and we have more or less reached consensus that the original ending should be the scene of Liu He sword in sword tomb. That drama really took its time to elaborate Bai Qian pain in losing Ye Hua so when it was time for the couple reunion I could feel the relieve of "Final".
The only drama that really take time to elaborate their ending (that I know of) is Ten Miles Peach Blossom. Like 95% drama or more that I have seen always have rushed ending.
I think chinese drama has this chronic sickness called "rushed ending". Now that I more or less have sobered up from frustration of bad ending and editing, I want to talk about the drama ending in general. the re-watching value of this drama is high for me. I can always create my own ending inside my head, so. (including protagonist and antagonist side characters). The storytelling (excluding the ending) is good, chemistry is superb (one of the best that I've ever seen), acting is. However, I haven't regretted that I decided to watch this. We all quite agree that the editing is very bad.
