#you can also replace “taikang” with “shuang'er” or “jin li” and tbh I'd probably still be able to clock them #I got shuang'er as chi yun pretty much within the first two lines and liu yan was so embarrassingly taikang's type it felt like cheating #as it turns out 顺子 actually has an incredible range and sometimes I don't realize he's in something until I check the cast #and while I adore 刘思岑 his range is literally so impressive that I can't catch him. 这才是真正的0.5hhh #北极圈blogging #voice(bear) appreciation hours

I want this article pinned to my forehead

As viewers tune in for his flawless looks, the actor’s appeal points to a deeper shift in Chinese dramas where male leads are styled, shot a

“Foundation General”, as he’s been nicknamed by netizens, makes you want to rush out and buy some makeup. The finish is seamless. The lighting appears personally invested in his success.

...

The lighting does not simply illuminate, it caresses; it appears to have strong opinions about cheekbones and intends to support them. This is not, in any way, about realism; it is about unabashed idealisation.

...

But, C-dramas, in a way, have moved into a higher, metaphysical realm, quietly and very successfully recalibrating that dynamic. They have pointed the camera at a very beautiful man, and asked: What if we simply… stayed here?

...

No one is pretending to be watching Pursuit Of Jade for the plot, and it’s not even the worst plot in the history of C-drama. There have been, it must be admitted, dramas in which the narrative appears to have been assembled after the casting, possibly by an intern under time pressure. There are moments when one suspects that the script has been written primarily as a delivery system for close-ups.

...

They exist in a fiercely competitive market where attention is the most valuable currency and where audiences, when presented with a choice between “competent but visually unremarkable” and “visually arresting with a tendency to stare meaningfully into the middle distance”, have shown a marked preference for the latter.

LMAO THE SHADE

Also, I take issue with this one:

Zhang’s character is styled with the same level of care as his female counterpart – the same flowing fabrics, the same crimson lipstick, the same commitment to looking as though he has never experienced an unfortunate angle in his life.
