Bu Bu Jing Xin Airs Finale and Releases Photobook

So Bu Bu Jing Xin finished it’s television airing today. Just as I suspected, the TV ending ultimately was the same as the leaked DVD version online, which doesn’t mean there weren’t multiple endings filmed as Director Lee revealed. At yesterday’s Sohu-hosted celebration for the cast, Tangren’s Ladyboss was specifically asked about the rumors of 4 different endings. She played coy, but ultimately confirmed there were 3 endings filmed. One was the ending of the novel, the other being the one that has been shown, and one more ending which caused a lot of controversy among the production (half wanting it, half not wanting it), so that ending was scrapped.

Ladyboss mentioned that the third ending still might be shown, perhaps on an subsequent airing of BBJX. I won’t hold my breath about that, since I think she’s just drumming up interest. My gut tells me that ending likely continues where the aired ending left off and provides even more closure, but ultimately might undermine Tong Hua’s original novel ending too much. As a treat to celebrate a wild two weeks of watching and following this exquisite drama, below I bring all the stills from the official BBJX photobook that was just released (the cover is above). It’s perfect to save as wallpaper.

      • oh i definitely prefer the series ending to the book. with the book it felt like "huh, that's it! oh crap!". Good thing they brought her back to life in the series, there's definitely more closure there. ^___^

      • At first I liked the series ending as well, but when you think about all the stress and pain she went through before death, would it be better to live and repeat the process of life and love and heartache again and still have knowledge of what happened in the past and all those people you knew have all died?

        This was such a tragic tale...but a really great tale.

  • i liked the TV version where she goes back to the present
    would have been depressing just to have ruo xi die

    the photos are fantastic

  • Another BBJX post!! Yay!! Is there a site where I can order the photobook from? It is absolutely gorgeous and I really want to own one.

  • I think that the ending that aired was probably the closest to giving a more optimistic outlook while still staying true to the novel. However, I still want to see the third ending just to hopefully get the happy reunion I've been imagining since the series finished =P I can't listen to Three Inches of Heaven without visualizing a way for 4th Prince and Ruo Xi to be together =.= Just thinking about it makes me want to cry.

  • hi, next is Qing Shi Huang Fei... Can you pretty please at least recap the first two episodes... pretty please with cherry on top.... =D

    • Hi Trina,

      I don't plan to watch Qing Shi Huang Fei, and won't be writing about it consequently. I have no interest in it whatsoever. To be honest, I can't stand Ruby Lin. I hope the drama is good for those of you who are excited about it. :-D

      • Well....you know what would be awesome? if you could do one of your amazing breakdowns of the fantastic songs in BBJX. they were so great and I'm sure all those not fluent in Chinese would really love a post from you where you give us your thoughts on the meanings behind all the carefully written lyrics. :D pretty please with a whole jar of cherries on top?

      • hrmm.. How about it has Wallace Huo... LOL.. oh okay... i want to see it due to Yan Kuan and Wallace Huo... (Pssst.. did you read the news about Wallace Huo and Nicky Wu will be in the same drama..)=D

      • Strangely Wallace does nothing for me. But Yan Kuan is love. Man is literally sex on legs. *___* But I still won't watch this, not even for him. I'm too allergic to the conquerer/queen trope, plus Ruby.

        I did hear rumors about Nicky and Wallace in a period drama. Should be good once the casting gets finalized.

      • You know..

        It would be totally awesome if Shishi is casted in that new series with Nicky and Wallace.

        Bu Bu and Strange Hero Yizhimei reunion. I would still be rooting for Longshi though..

  • thank you ockoala! as usual, you just made my day! i still prefer the ending version shown on tv ... that gives me hope for RX and 4th.. in modern times.

    now if only some kind-hearted soul will help finish translate/segment the online english version of the novel - bubujingxin english blogspot .com.... hmmmm :-) Help!

    it will be a great help for non chinese speaker like me.... and for the others too.

    • yeah, me too. it really, really help us for non Chinese speaker. many non-Chinese people is fans of the drama & novel. they should aim for international market.

  • The cover of that photobook is beautiful. I want it to be velvet even though I know it's probably not... and that sadly I'll never own my own copy :(

    Thank you for sharing!

  • ^______________^~
    Ah I'm going to save up every cent I got and buy the DVD and the photobook. Or if I manage to wait, I'll beg my parents to gift it to me for Christmas.

    Ah I want to see the other 2 endings. I'm trying to keep my hopes low, but I just can't help it. I crave a foreshadow of the past yet a foreshadow of what's to come. Does that make sense? I don't think so. But BBJX does that to me. Makes me crazy. T_T also someone help me with my obsession with 8th. I can't help but wish he'd show up with a tissue as well.

    Those pictures are so pretty *____* thank you for sharing them! I'm gonna use them as my new itouch wallpaper. I got a rotating cycle planned already.

    • Hi, I m there with u...I m trying to catch kelvin's " under the canopy of love" and is superimposing images of him in that show with ruoxi...I m a 8th-RX shipper all the way...love is unconditioned and even his dying moment, he think about her...how romantic. He is the only one to tell her openly that they are not fated in this life and hope to continue in the next life.... If 4th never return with the tissue, I sure hope 8th does... Fan fic

  • the pictures are nice! thanks koala for introducing this great drama, otherwise, I won't be taking even a glimpse on c-drama. I think it's one of the best c-drama i've ever watched. By the way, I'm planning to read the book too.
    The ending was just perfect and giving us the imagination (hope, maybe) on how it will end in between Ruoxi & 4th Prince
