So this whole issue needs context and I’ll do my best to provide. Apparently Liu Yu Ning has been accused of working behind the scenes to increase his scenes for dramas in recent years, don’t ask him how he accomplishes it if that is indeed what he does.

Like all C-dramas nowadays, the bigger the hit the more likely there is criticism, blowback, and nitpicking. I try to cover it even if I like the drama, this year the ones I liked My Journey to You, and Till the End of the Moon had plenty of naysayers, and the ones I didn’t The Longest Promise, Legend of Anle, … Continue reading →
The solid success of A Journey to Love is both a surprise and a true happiness for me. I love leads Liu Shi Shi and Liu Yu Ning separate and now together in this drama but neither are top liuliangs to drive traffic.

So I don’t check out the so-called booting ceremonies a lot, when a C-drama kicks off filming with prayers and red envelopes for good luck.
