Upcoming modern romance drama to air on 5 SEPTEMBER
Title SEE YOU AGAIN
STARRING YUKEE CHEN AND HU YITIAN
ON DRAMALIST TO WATCH
I believe Love The Galaxy is my favorite movie.
Love the movie beautiful
Thank you Marcus for another great video!! Always enjoy watching your videos as they help me stay up to date with what’s happening the C-Drama world / community.
Loved Love Like the Galaxy. Do agree there were some dragging, rambling and repetitiveness towards the end, which like some folks pointed out could have been used to flush out/develop other areas, but overall a wonderful journey!
Highly highly recommend Love Between Fairy and Devil to everyone here!! Another hit drama that fully deserves its praises and matches the awesomeness/beautifulness of LLTG in my opinion. Two of the best dramas I’ve seen this year!!
Love between fairy and devil is so good! Want more episodes or hoping for season 2🙏
Hi MARCUS please help me to understand this incident that happened with a crew member and a paparazzi. He being the assistant of the assistant of the director, what is his portfolio in a video that's been circulating on social media?
If his job was to keep out the people like the paparazzi by any means necessary but not to kill him, wasn't he in the right be it whatever size either one of them would be or is. Now he has lost his job for doing his job if that's what he was paid for.
If I am one of those members being paid to do that type of job and end up like how this guy ended up I will let it paparazzi do whatever they want to do because that is the standard that they are sitting right there or that's the precedent that they are setting there for the
paparazzi to do whatever they want to DOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
LBFAD is one of the best drama I ever seen!!! ML and FL chemistry is over the moon, great great acting especially Dylan Wang, perfect visuals!!!
Oh Marcus, I have loved every second of LLTG and now that it is done, I'm feeling lonely. They were the best couple, they just seemed real. The whole drama was done so well, music…scenery…acting…. direction…BEST EVER!! I doubt I'll ever love a drama this much ever again. My hope is it sweeps in all categories at awards programs. I have a list of dramas I want to watch, but sometimes it's hard if it's auto translated…so many gaps in the subtitles that you miss key dialogue ( I know that's my problem and not for others) so really getting into a drama is hard work. I have loved Ode to Joy 3, because it's female centric, I can relate to it and I like that they are touching on dangerous situations for women. I'm grateful for IQIYI also for the drama Chasing the Undercurrent, it's good too. Hoping your week ends well and your little one is growing healthy and happily.
Marcus I second the thought of the length of drama. Your point was absolutely correct
Thanks
You're a hard taskmaster Marcus, I would gladly have seen more of LLTG and would give it a 8.5 rating.
Delighted with LbF&D and sorry to see it brought to an end. Really superior in every way to recent Xianxia dramas including Immortal Samsara which left me bored and uninvolved.
Looking forward to newly premiering historical dramas and hope there will be Eng. subs available.
Sad LLTG and LBFandD are over. Need other good dramas to come out. Immortal Samsara is just so-so. I don't feel the chemistry between Yang Zi and Cheng Yi.
Regarding Wang Dong, that video is beyond disturbing. I don't think that was his first time laying his hands on her. No matter how much his wife provokes him (if there's even any truth in that), it still doesn't change the fact that he abuses her. No excuses. Here's one actor where I hope his career is over.
This was a good summer for CD and yes, KD. Loved LltG, got obsessed with DoS, and KD had 2 super hits: Alchemy of Souls and Extraordinary Attorney Woo. Just saying.
Hi Marcus! Are there any historical/costume dramas currently filming with actors & screenplays/scripts similar to The Rebel Princess, Nirvana in Fire, Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace particularly that have the more mature & seasoned actors like Zhang Zi Yi, Zhou Yi Wei, Wallace Huo, Zhou Xun, Tony Yang, Yu He Wei, etc. I understand that many movie companies want to target the larger audience of teens, young adults with the more music/movie “idol” type actors & some are pretty talented. It’s just getting so tiring to have to fast forward through the first 10-15 episodes because the two ML’s either just argue all of the time, or their characters are full of silliness, or bratty behavior that has nothing to do with the story, nor does it help with the development or depth of their characters. Everyone has different tastes in movies, and that’s certainly cool. Those of us who make up a more mature audience sure would love to see another series as good as (our favorite) The Rebel Princess. Thanks so much! Blessings from the US! 🇺🇸🙏🏼🙏🏼🇺🇸
I can see why Love Between Fairy and Devil surpasses 10,500. The storyline is not only well written, but the cast of characters have the best acting team of this year. The two leads are not the most popular amongst the mainstream actors, but they have demonstrated that acting is not just about looks. Congratulations to the entire cast and crew for making this a huge success!
Hi Marcus, try "Being A Hero" 👌🏻
Hello, I'm wanting to watch Love Between Fairy and Devil here on YouTube but only Episodes 1 & 2 are uploaded. Does anyone know when either more or all episodes will be available to watch? I would appreciate any information that can be given. Thank you!
The Chinese dramas I enjoyed and didn’t walk away from this year with the endings I needed are… The long Ballad 👏 The Blue Whisper 👏 A Dream of Splendor 👏and Love Like the Galaxy being my all time favorite 😍 In LLTG The cinematography was great. The romance was sweet, All the actors portrayed their characters well, there was even comic relief to keep it from being overly serious and sad in episodes. ALL these factors including the ending made it worth watching .Thank You Producer Fei👏😃 Bravo and well done! I can’t wait to see your next drama.
LLTG is the best!!
I really liked Love like the Galaxy too, everything about it made it the best Chinese period drama I have watched. It made me cry and laugh and that just made it so memorable. Sometimes I fast forward many Chinese drama's as they drag on not introducing anything new and you can still pick up the story depsite the skipping, but with LLTG, I had no compulsion to skip any of it. It was so beautifully shot and acted and the entire cast did such a good job. A huge shout out to those behind the camera, first class all the way. Thanks Marcus just found your channel and its really informative and thanks for making it in english.
According to maoyan data hot summer drama in 2022 was no.1 dream of splender no.2 immortal samsara no.3 love between fairy n devil 4.love like the Galaxy.
It actually proove that how successful this dramas r.specially dream of splender n immortal samsara.
Immortal Samsara is break many record in youku.they break 10 k heat index for 42 times with highest number of bullet screen comments ( now over 50 million) the drama was not yet finished.it is the highest among all dramas in history of youku dramas.according to lighthouse data immortal samsara now no.1
most gross online drama in 2022.
but in v linkage data this drama always no.2 because youku is not as much as wider platforms like iqiyi n tencent.
I just laughed out those haters who just wants to criticize this drama because of their fevourite dramas.this drama is way more good than LLTG n LBFD.
chengyi n yangzi acting n their sizzling chemistry highlights for this drama.
Highly recommend for this drama who wants to see best plot with good acting skills n great chemistry between leads.
When will the longest promise premier I been wait so long
✨💫Galaxy✨💫 is the best Cdrama I have ever watched from beginning to end🙌🏽
Greetings, Marcus! Thank you for all the great job you do. Regarding Lltg, it is really good. …in everything. I guess if they hadnt to cut so much, the story would be even more interesting for the viewers, the love story shouldnt be on the 3rd place, but even so, I like it a lot. I think they chose to keep,as a whole, for the beggining to the end, the family relationships and the revange themes as main ones. It is about the director vision and honestly, he did a great job.The novel reveals a beautiful, deep love story. This is why I expect a special ep, full of a deep, sensitive romance…. see what they cutAbout dragging, is really a pleasure to see this slow burning story then 10 episodes of the same ill-face Fl ( blue whisper), or 5 whole mins of sand crowling Fl ( Lbfad). I wont comment more about Love between fairy and devil, they all worked there a lot, too, they invested a lot in that drama…however, it is just an easy fairytale with better visual effects then others and nothing more…always a sweet and easy story you can watch between 2 good dramas. Lltg is better rated on google, viki, mydramalist, which means it was very welcomed by the foreigner viewers, maybe not very important, but still a sweet bonus
Love like the galaxy is on top of my all favourites list
