Wisher (致命愿望) | Cdrama | Whump List

Genre: Thriller, Mystery, Youth, Sci-Fi

Synopsis: The start and end of everything stems from an app called Wisher. Wisher appeared on the mobile phones of a group of college students out of the blue, and as long as they made a wish to it and completed a simple randomly assigned task, the wish would be realized. These young people can't stand the temptation, and just like signing a contract with the devil, they become dominoes under the control of desire. Middle-aged reporter Na Duo, as well as young collage students Lu Li and Qiu Wendong, began to confront the forces behind Wisher.

New Life Begins. 8

Story: 9

Acting: 10

Chemistry: 10

Comparable to: ?

This drama is the type where either fans will love it or hate it. The storyline narrative deals heavy on feminism and in my opinion does it flawlessly in a historically fictional setting. It’s hilarious (satire in this is on point), romantic, and entertaining. The acting all around is phenomenal with such an amazing cast. I actually was more for the second main couple then the mains though (Chang Long/5th prince, Liu Ling Zi ) don’t get me wrong loved Bai Jing Ting and Tian Xi Wei in the first half of the drama somewhere in the middle half though, they lost the spark a tiny bit for me especially with the whole slight spoiler (‘new wife part). This is definitely a recommend for me. Loved it to bits, even if it may get sketchy with the main leads during the middle.

[accio-victuuri]

wait.. i’m literally on here or weibo almost 24/7 ( as you can tell lol ) but I feel like i missed something. i’m seeing clowning related to xz’s photos and how it looks like he is a groom and it’s a wedding photoshoot. the place is also famous for wedding shoots ( allegedly, idk. i’m not from there ) so turtles are imagining again. lol. freakin coincidence that wyb’s GRA photoshoot was done at a wedding shop. plus the “wedding outfits” for weibo night. which is all clowning and galaxy braining.🌌

now, we’re joking around, like where’s yibo? he should be taking photos with his partner.

then i see comments that there is this one song WYB recently listened to. meaning, as recent as when XZ flew to singapore which is called 超人不会飞 (superman can’t fly) by Jay Chou. i know WYB and everyone else is a big fan of Jay Chou but the clowning comes from the timing of when he listened to it. let me get to that first.

here is the song if you wanna listen to it. 🎶

turtles are interpreting it as WYB longing to “fly” to where XZ is and be with him but he can’t because of all his work commitments. he wants to take a breather. thinking about what his life is and the constraints, and at times like this, when they spent days in Beijing, but now they have to be apart, it affects him even more.

however when i read the lyrics, it could also be because he can relate to what jay chou is singing about. here’s the english translation i found here. i have bolded the ones i felt like WYB relates too. literally no need for explanation. just read it. It fits with his status in life so much that it’s almost scary.

I don’t think there is anything wrong with how cpfs are relating this to cpn cause that’s just how it is. But sometimes, there are other reasons why they do what they do.

SO MY CONFUSION COMES FROM HOW THE HELL DO PEOPLE KNOW WHAT HE RECENTLY LISTENED TO. I can’t seem to dig up how or maybe it’s something we don’t talk about. I have never experienced this kind of tidbit related to them before so I wanna know the source. Or is this like the gaming cpn where certain people know and they will not divulge the boy’s account for privacy? if anyone knows, feel free to comment. If i find out in the future, I will share.

Welcome to the 'Best Character with [X] surname' polls!

This is where I take several characters from different Chinese media (mostly cnovels and cdrama) and run a poll on which one is the 'best'. What does best mean? It's up to you! Whether you love them, are intrigued by their characters, love to hate them, or they're your '2 second blorbos whose personality you made up wholesale', these are all reasons for you to vote for your favs!

NB: the surnames are not exactly the same in all the cases, as often they will be a different character. I am, however, grouping them all together otherwise things got more complicated.

If you can't find a surname, it's because I couldn't find enough candidates (at least 3 from 3 distinct medias) to compete. Feel free to submit candidates!

I will be posting several polls at a time, so do come back and check this masterpost to remember which polls are ongoing, who the winners are, and who's coming up next!

Finished polls: Xing/Rong/Nan/Ren/Pan/Qu/Fu/Sui/Tan/You/Sima/Xuan/Chang/Xun/Shangguan/Jian/Qian/Shu/Xi/Yuwen/Cai/Sha/Yin/Ceng/Helian/Zeng/Lou/Mi/Ji/Ping/Tong/Tuoba/Ge/Murong/Hei/Niu/Tao/Si/Pang/Zi/Gongsun/Mao/Qing/Lian

my thoughts on My Journey to You

Disclaimer: there will be spoilers below the cut!

Firstly I have to say that this was a drama I was anticipating so much and it was mainly because of two reasons: the cast and the director. The news of Esther doing another drama with Ling He made me very excited to watch the drama even before knowing what the show was about and when I saw that Edward Guo was the director, I knew I HAD to watch it because I loved the movie The Yin-Yang Master: Dream of Eternity that was also directed by him. When the trailer dropped I almost cried of happiness of how good it looked! And I know trailer can be deceiving some times but still got me excited and looking forward the release. 

After watching the first episode I was very overwhelmed by it because since from the start the drama showcased amazing visuals, top notching costumes and an intriguing plot. And I felt the same feeling after watching every episode because it always got better and better.

So I will divide my thoughts in categories:

Characters:

One thing that made me really interested in the drama was the characters because they weren’t written shallowly. Although the english title for the drama is “My Journey to you” I think it should be called “A journey to yourself” because the main thing I got from characters is that they were on a journey to find their identity. 

Weishan was a Wufeng spy/assassin but she wanted to be more than that, she wanted freedom to live as her real self that it was taken from her.

Ziyu always felt neglected by his father and it was one of the reasons he had no aspirations and didn’t know what he was and what he wanted.

Shang Jue was definitely the most suitable to be the World Wielder, he was capable, logical and already passed the three trials of the three realms but still felt like it wasn’t enough and lived blaming himself after what happened with this mother and brother.

Yuan Zhi had literally a brother complex with Shang Jue because he also blamed himself for what happened with Shang Jue’s little brother and lived his life trying to be the perfect brother to him.

Zi Shang was always downlooked by the others in the Gong family, mostly because she is a woman and didn’t meet expectations that they had for her, she was really smart but people always though of her being a superfluous woman who goes after man.

Jin Fan was a talent since he was a kid and had to give up the most precious thing to him that it was being a Red Jade Guardian so to meet the expectations of being a good guardian to Ziyu he had to shut down the things he wanted and the things he felt.

Shangquan is the only character I couldn’t really get into it because it’s hard to know what she really feels and thinks :(

So, with that being said, I think the development of the characters where they try to find their real selfs was the most solid thing in the drama. 

Visuals:

Another thing that makes this show amazing it is the visuals! Since the cinematography, the costumes to the fighting choreography, it is really impeccable! 

The director did such a great job to capture the feelings, the elements and really helped upgrade the tension of some scenes! All the scenes that had water as a primordial element were my favorite!

The couples:

I must say that even tho I got interested in the drama before airing because of the main cast pairing, when I was watching the drama, the romance was definitely on second plan. Of course it was great and cute but was not the priority for me so when the two main couples of the drama didn’t had their “happy endings” I was not bothered by it because it make sense. It was known from the very beginning that a relationship between someone from Wufeng and the Gong family was doomed so I was glad that at least none of them died because I think that this would make it a really sad ending.

The plot:

I’m still amazed by how the things turned out with the plot, and yes, there was some things that was left without a proper explanation but it still made emends to give some closured to the main story and for that I am satisfied. 

When I think about a drama is really more about how the episodes influenced me while watching than only judging it by the last episode. So, the intriguing questions and theories made while I was watching and how they “played” with the audience’s mind were another solid point that sold the drama to me.

Editing:

For a drama, specially wuxia, to have 24 episodes can make the audience feels some rushes at the latest episodes but for me personally I think it didn’t rushed at all but again, some might feel different about this. I still think that if the drama had like two more episodes it could make some questions to be answered (specially about Wufeng’s leader and Weishan twin sister plot) but this is what we got for now. I really doubt (even tho I really want) they would make a special episode to give it proper closure to the cliffhanger that was left at the end :(

Acting:

Must I say, the acting of the cast is astonishing! They portrayed the characters so well that I could feel their emotions and sympathize (and cry) with them, such a great job made by a great casting!

Ost:

The soundcheck for this show is amazing and it really compliments the drama!

-

Overall, it was an awesome journey to watch the drama and it’s definitely one of my favorites of the year and among the all the dramas I’ve watched. I might have forgot to say some things I’m not recalling at the moment but for now, I will give it 9,5/10.

My Journey To You - Thoughts and Impressions Part 1 of 2

I realise that I've been missing these past few months, i've been on a consumption binge but with little to no bandwidth to write about any show/film irrespective of how much I may have loved them. (depression is an ass) But I can, once again, feel thoughts tingling in my brain and I've decided to get back to writing, something that I deeply enjoy. Anyway, enough about me, let's get started.

To keep the post from getting obscenely long, I'm going to split it into two. This post will be about the technical aspects of the show. Part 2 will focus on the characters.

My Journey To You is a 2023 fantasy, Wuxia show (shows/films that are based in ancient China with martial arts warriors being capable of superhuman feats, like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon). It was highly anticipated owing to the amazing trailer (one of the best I've seen)

Plot: The series tells the story of Yun Wei Shan, a spy longing for freedom, who infiltrates the Gong residence to complete a mission. In the eerie and treacherous Gong residence, she encounters love and friendship, embarks on a journey of self-discovery, and finds the determination to move forward. Together with the rebellious nobleman Gong Zi Yu, they grow and mature through their shared experiences. (via mydramalist)

It stars: Yu Shu Xin (Yun Wei Shan), Zhang Ling He(Gong Zi Yu), Ryan Cheng (Gong Shang Jue) and Lu Yu Xiao (Shangguan Qian), Tian Jia Rui (Gong Yuan Zhi), Jolin Jin (Gong Zi Shang) and Sun Chen Jun (Jin Fan)

Written by: Edward Guo.

Series directed by: Edward Guo & Luo Luo

I'll talk about everything I liked before I get into the stuff that I didn't.

Right off the bat, this show has some of the most gorgeous characters you'll come across and this applies to both the men and the women. The costume and make-up departments do an amazing job making already attractive people look ridiculously attractive. They also help the actors really inhabit the world seamlessly. The costumes are especially incredibly detailed and intricate, you can see the care that went into crafting the look for each of these characters. Shout-out to Huang Wei (costume designer) and Shi Hui (Make-up)

One of the best aspects of the show is the cinematography by Wei Hong. This show is aesthetically beautiful, so many absolutely stunning shots. Chinese shows (and Korean shows) love slow-motion shots, and while at times, it can be a bit much, this show makes great use of them, especially during the fight scenes.

The cinematography is helped to a great extent by the excellent production design, courtesy Jiyao Zhang. Like the costumes, the production design too is detailed and intricate. The world feels fully realised and yet also lived in. Each of the different clan mansions, the Front Hill and Back Hill are so incredibly different and distinct that you can immediately tell where you are. An insane amount of hard work went into the show and it shows in every frame.

You can tell that they had a good budget to work with and every bit of it was spent on making the show look as stylized as possible, there is not an ounce of realism to be found here, cue slow-motion beautiful hair flying shots. (Every day I bemoan my inability to make gifs) But the screencaps below illustrate the beauty of the show, it's so gorgeous that you could literally use screencaps as wallpapers.

The fight scenes in the show are some of the best I've seen. They are intense and thrilling and always coherent, you can always tell who's fighting who. The fight scenes are also so aesthetically pleasing, like an exceptionally deadly dance.

Now, we come to the not-so-great stuff.

First off, the marketing. The show was marketed and advertised as an action fantasy show and while there is action and it is excellent, it's not an "action" show. The main focus of the show is on the characters and the internal power struggle of the Gong family. There are also whole scenes, sometimes making up the bulk of an entire episode which are just conversations. I've seen a lot of viewers disappointed and it makes sense. they thought they were coming for action and instead they got verbose conversations.

The pacing also comes to a near-halt in some of these scenes and instead we're treated to lengthy expositions which isn't necessarily a bad thing but it becomes tedious when it happens repetitively.

Now, let's come to the worst thing about the show, it's ending, specifically the last 5 minutes. This end is ridiculously mindbogglingly bad when you consider that there is almost no confirmation on a 2nd season. It's just such a bad idea to end on a cliffhanger like this. If they wanted to leave things open for a potential 2nd season, they could have ended with the Wufeng elders coming together at that character's home, possibly to hold them ransom or something, like literally anything else.

if you're planning on watching this show and I do recommend it, keep in mind that it does get slow and don't watch the last 5 mins of the show. Trust me, you'll like the show a whole lot more if you follow that approach.

Type: Retelling

Summary:

This is not any chapter of Journey to the West, this is the story of Wukong. At that time, Monkey King (played by Peng Yuyan) was not the Monkey King who shook the world, he was just an arrogant monkey. Tianting destroyed his Huaguo Mountain to control the fate of all people, so he was determined to fight against Heaven destroy all precepts. In the Heavenly Court, Monkey King met A Zi (Ni Ni), who could not be loved, Yang Jian (Shawn Yue), his lifelong enemy, and Tian Peng (Ou Hao), who missed his former lover A Yue. Their identities were destined to kill each other forever, but in fact, Wukong is not the only one who is unwilling to be at the mercy of fate? Unexpectedly, the resistance would bring even greater catastrophe.

Everything they do, is it a passionate and frivolous person who does not know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth, or the depression and despair of helpless fate? Is fate really doomed? Wukong was not convinced, he waved the golden cudgel again to make all the Buddhas disappear in smoke!

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love (在暴雪时分)

Yet another one. As you can see I love a fluffy, calm, feel-good romance show and here is another one that I can add to that list. Amidst a Snowstorm of Love made by the same showrunner as Love Me, Love My Voice, was another success in creating the sweetest meet cute and showing the most wonderful relationship between two people. This show was cute on top of cute on top of cute, and I was in love with the characters, with the romance, just every little bit. 

My Rating: 10/10

Episodes: 30

Country: China

Genre: Meet Cute Romance with Billiards

Aired: Feb 2nd, 2024- Feb 14th, 2024

Cast:

Leo Wu as Lin Yi Yang

Zhao Jin Mai as Yin Guo

Wang Xing Yue as Meng Xiao Dong

Ding Xiao Ying as Lin Lin

Chen Jing Ke as Jiang Yang 

Dong Zi Fan as Wu Wei

Wang Run Ze as Li Qing Yan

Han Dong Lin as Chen An An

Wang Jia Xuan as Meng Xiao Tian

Synopsis:

Yin Guo is a professional billiards player in nine- ball, and she has a tournament in Hel, however, she came a few months earlier to scope out the place as Meng Xiao Tian (her cousin) was planning to attend school there. 

Yin Guo meets Lin Yi Yang during a snowstorm where they are stranded at a bar. Lin Yi Yang fell in love at first sight. He tries to help out the cousins by getting them a cab, and thus starting their journey of getting to know each other. 

This drama was adapted from the web novel “Zai Bao Xue Shi Fen” (在暴雪时分) by Mo Bao Fei Bao (墨宝非宝), who is also the author of the novel “Really, Really Miss You” which inspired Love Me, Love My Voice. 

Beware of Spoilers Moving Forward!!!!!!

What Episode did the Main Couple Start Dating?

It’s kinda like alluded that they are essentially together after Episode 6, however, Yin Guo still questions if they are in a relationship in Episode 9 LOL which caught me off guard because the way she asks him is by asking if he has a girlfriend at school or something???? but I understand why she was asking. She was just clarifying what they were. He then clarifies that he’s serious about her and that’s I guess technically when they were official. 

Misunderstandings?

They have a minor dispute in Episode 18. This is it though LOL. They have no other misunderstandings other than this. This misunderstanding also only lasts less than an episode.

Episode 18 is when Yi Yang was trying to toast Yin Guo’s mom as a way to try to create amends for his prior actions as a child, however, Yin Guo’s mom still acted extremely cold towards him. 

Yin Guo felt like Yi Yang was treating her more cold because of her mom and she walked away from him creating a rift between them. 

In Episode 19, they solve this misunderstanding. Yi Yang came to try to make up with her the next morning but she had already left for training for 2 months. He texts her that he’s there, and she calls him, and she wonders why he didn’t call the same night and because of that she got even more mad the next morning and left without saying anything. He basically gives in and says “I miss you, I’ll go now, bye” and let me tell you his response made me so sad and I felt bad like I stood him up * sobs *. 

Yin Guo talks to the driver who is taking everyone to training, and they have a sweet relatable moment, and he asks her why she didn’t stay at home an extra day to relax. She takes this as an opportunity to go back and make up with Yi Yang, and takes a cab back to him. 

Love Triangles?

There are no love triangles. hehe

There are love rivals but, are they really rivals? (the answer is no lol) We have Li Qing Yan who likes Yin Guo, he’s one of Meng Xiao Dong’s disciples (Meng Xiao Dong is Yin Guo’s cousin). Then, we have Cheng Yan who likes Lin Yi Yang, she is a member of Dongxin City, which is the club that Lin Yi Yang was a part of when he was young. 

Second Main Leads

Honestly, were they really the second main leads? LOL. I barely understood how it was listed as such. Their romance was subtle, and they were just there. I didn’t really care about them tbh ahahahaha. Yin Guo was very invested in it though, however, I wasn’t really bothered.

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love Ending

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love has a cute ending where they both find out that they had anonymous accounts where they only talked about each other. After the Asian Games, he takes the core friend group on a trip. During this trip, he proposes to her while singing the main song of the show jskjndfkjsfkjs (i’m not screaming you are). He did this sweet comparison where he compared his life to the Truman Show and said that the world he created around himself in Hel was fake, and this girl aka Yin Guo, shows up and breaks his reality. He proposes and she says yes right away and then they have a 3 year time skip and it’s just a massive reminiscing scene in Hel. 

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love Review- Meet Cute with that Shy, Awkwardness that evokes the feeling of falling in love

This show in my eyes is a 10/10. I enjoyed basically every second of this beautiful, charming, wholesome romance between two green forest characters. If I’m being completely honest, the majority of the characters in this show is a whole green forest. The romance was just romancing. From the meet-cute, to the awkwardness of getting to know each other, to the hand holding, kissing, communicating, long distance relationship, rejoicing of being physically together again, growing and succeeding together. Everything was just done so well, so elegantly, I was squealing like a highschool girl in my seat watching this show. 

The billiards plot was also extremely fun for me to watch, as I was not really well versed in billiards nor even knew there were multiple types. Lin Yi Yang’s plot with Dongxin City and his coach was really heartwarming to watch and just seeing him becoming more understanding and growing in character was just wonderful to watch. 

This show was the most perfect watch for me. I felt like I was falling in love at the same time as the characters. The cinematic scenes with the actors that had amazing chemistry and wonderful acting skill, just made the experience that much better. 

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love is a must-watch for romance watchers who love shows with supportive main leads, supportive friends, little misunderstandings, a lot of kissing and chemistry, and watching two people just fall in love.
