• I'm tired of seeing so much Allen ren. I don't like his acting and find he has no appeal to me whatsoever. I wish they would give Alen Fang some lead work instead

  • Totally on your side.

  • I am disappointed in him after the fake muscle story. Ugh can’t he bulk up for his role? It’s so embarrassing. He should’ve work harder considering the lay celebrities get

• Allen Ren, Oh, I thought the rumours of his affair affected his image. Thus his agency put him in the cold. I am really unsure how much truth there is to this. If it is untrue, it is unfair to him.
  I will definitely check this out just to watch Tan Song Yun in Xianxia's costume. As for Allen Ren, we dont know who will be the male lead till the Production company released the names.

  • I personally think it's more likely to be the other way round where he didn't want to renew with his agency thus those rumours came out.

    • Oh, he was due for renewal?

  • He wants to leave his agency, it's his wish. This why Cheng Yi got all the resources this year while they ignored RJL. And why suddenly very unpleasant rumors showed up. Coincidence, I am sure.

• LOL. Tang Song Yun isn't a problem for me, But Allen Ren IS! Allen Ren is in my blacklist of many unwatchable actors.

• At the risk of sounding cold - she's going to open herself up to a lot of criticism by doing xianxia. She does not have the look for it. Whether it's fair to have such strict aesthetic standards is another discussion but the genre itself is fantasy.

  • I agree with you. He just lacks so much chemistry with FL. I feel is his reluctance to do proper kissing, makes the relationship lacks emotion and more like good friends. The female version of him is Zhang Ruo Nan. Maybe both should be in the same drama so that other female or male lead are not affected.

    • Damn I didn’t know zhang ruonan is bad at kissing! I only watched her mlvie with greg han, My Love, and I didn’t notice anything. Was it just coincidentally better at least or I’m too focused on greg han? 🤔

• The more reliable marketing accounts are saying the male lead is Cheng Lei, and instead Ren will film another costume drama with Peng Xiaoran instead.

• When did xianxia become so synonymous with ethereal beauty? There are many average looking immortals in xianxia that are side characters. Maybe she’s not playing a role whose beauty is supposed to be out of this world. Tan Songyun is a very cute actress that is actually very capable.

• No more Allen Ren 😭

• All these comments blasting how TSY looks. I’d rather watch someone who can act than someone who is just all looks.

• She has a face that isn't appropriate for this genre, she will get eviscerated. It's just how it is, they want pretty people of a certain type. He will make it even worse because both of them have no charisma.

• I remember how much hate Zhou Dong Yu got for acting in a xianxia. Hope she doesn't go through the same.

  • to be hair, Tan Song Yun is more conventionally pretty compared to Zhou Dong Yu, who has the "edgy" look more suitable for movies.

    • No, she isn't. She got blasted during the Sword and Brocade and this is going to be even worse.
