Can see more of him in the new water margin drama that was released last year. The Glamorous Imperial Concubine (TV Series) | Radio Times Liancheng had a beautiful death scene with some moving monologue. $168.50. PerformanceYan Kuan is a weaker actor than Wallace Huo, in the sense he is less big movements, less emotional on his face. I actually thought she died before him but in actual fact she was just sick. I will commend Ruby on being a good producer by the looks of the costumes and all. and also because you understand his hurt, his pain and his confusion. She could have sincerely treated those around her but she chose to manipulate, to cheat, to lie, to pretend. Compare this to Meng Qixing, Qiyous full blood brother who in the most important time abandoned Qiyou and even wanted Qiyou dead. A story that follows Zhu Yuan Zhang's fourth son, Zhu Di, who fought many battles from a young age that aided him in his journey to become a qualified military commander ondemandchina.com. The best of all characters of father, with the best actor and the worst character has to be Qiyous father, the Emperor of Shu. Therefore is the completion of Meng Qiyou, unloved, unwanted, the unluckiest man, ever. A lot of TVB actors and actresses have to go to China to be challenged as an actor and most live up to that challenge because theyre already rather good actors before they left TVB. The Glamorous Imperial Concubine S1. But the one thing he does best is his very expressive eyes. I didnt feel sorry for him at all. If it is the girls, maybe dont watch. For one, Liu Lian Cheng is a conflicted character that will seize and demand your attention and make you love and hate him and to Wallaces credit, he did not hold back. Disgusting man. I cant remember but Duyun killed her. The other factor I dont like is the editing of the story. Bravo! Ma Fuya is left an orphan, and she escapes with the help of a eunuch. But first, let me say why I love this series. If there is a reason to watch this series, Ruby Lin the actress is not the reason. He deluded himself into taking he could make her love him but yet he doesnt make her love him by forcing her. One is when he meets a mask covered Ma Fuya and he was sitting very arrogantly and giving her that I dont give a damn look until he heard her voice and he knew it was her and his look, unchanged except for that momentary shift in his eyes that you know, he knows. The Glamorous Imperial Concubine Ep 1 1 - YouTube You know, I normally dont agree with Funns reviews (sorry about that) but I thought this review was quite accurate to how I felt about this series, the parts I read anyway. Whilst I am not a fan of his death scene since I blame Ma Fuya for it, I do like one line he spoke; Flowers do bloom in the cold Northern Han, there can be spring in Northern Han and I will always tear up a bit when he said that as I shall then do a Ma Xiangyun; MA!!! You can hear that in Huan Zhu Gege which gave her performance an edge over others. Past his icy cold and calculative demeanor, he is gentle, warm and passionate . 29. From that moment on, for me Wallace Huo is the THE actor of melancholic sadness. Deep down he is a very sad character. When Fuya refused his advances, he threatened her that he will kill Qiyou if she refuses him. Not that I think highly of Fuya but I just want my Liancheng to be happy. No she is not. This show has a strange way of turning rational persons into fan girls. He is not ethereally beautiful like Wallace but he has this manly quality that I am sure fans will be divided into 2 camps; Liancheng the beautiful or Yan Kuan the handsome. I was never a Taiwan drama fan so I never knew of his existence although I heard of the tale of 2 Wallaces. He hardly has any lines, he hardly has any actions. Poor woman. First, she is the producer, of course she would cast herself and she is sorta famous on TV. thy r wasting great talent. I actually thought no he is not dead. Performance wise, yes Yan Kuan does seem to have a bad deal with his awful ending and less focus on him as opposed to when we see Wallace, he is almost the main focus. The first marriage protected her from being executed with her family. It was to me one of the most beautiful introduction, everything I ever need to know about Liu Lian Cheng, I knew in that 5 minutes of his intro, from his dislike of the idea of being a crown prince to his disgust at having to be there at Chu Kingdom and his dissatisfaction at his I suppose royal lineage. His lips was smacked with red lipstick which pretty much shows how intense he was with her. Why the woman with so much lipstick and yet the man after some hot kissing still looks bubblegum pretty on his lips? Liu Zi Jiao as Liansi is competent. The other characters seem like truly supporting for some, for others merely walk on roles. Whatever you have read about the synopsis, chuck it out because it aint the same. I suppose if you must have a weird guy that is Lianxi, then you must have weird girl, Muo Chou. Kang Qunzhi as Lin Muyi, Empress of Chu. The series in the end explains it is because she wanted to divert her husbands attention away from Qiyou. This is a classic example of a story that just couldnt go on logically. Genre: Historical, romance. The sets seem familiar. In fact he has my vote as the most pitiful character ever to grace the TV. Anyway Qiyun is a good guy, a better brother who in the end became emperor when Qiyou died. I like the fact that he had no reason for his betrayal to Fuya. His best scenes are with Kara Hui, and every scene he is with Kara Hui is his best performance of that episode. Ma Fu Ya is a princess of the Chu state in 10th century China. Watch it with an open mind, a bit of patience and throw out logic and I am sure you too will enjoy this series, generally speaking. Third marriage saved her people but killed the man she loved. He is also probably the one man immuned to Fuyas charm and tried to kill her several times. The drama is based on a novel by the same name by Murong Yinr and marks the production debut of Ruby Lin, who also stars in the series. First, Miao Hao Jun, the loving eunuch named Hua Gong Gong to Ma Fuya. I am sure Wallace has his background at the back of his mind when acting in certain ways, such background not available to us viewers since the snip snip happy editing and all. Air time: 22:00. I will spare you the suspense. Yes, she did all that to gain Lianchengs attention but the thing is Lianchengs attention, already shifted to Fuya is only attracted to those who are genuinely good to him without any hidden agenda. She has always been a capable actress but in here, she shows you all her expertise when it comes to acting. In the 10th century, a Chinese princess uses her wiles to gain power and exact vengeance after her uncle seizes the throne and kills her family. Empress of Chu died by falling to her death, accidentally pushed by Yunzhu who was deliberately pushed byDuyun? Her voice has always been her biggest weakness, shrilly and high so when her voice got dubbed by a formidable voice dubber, it became a perfect merger. He is unwanted, unloved, unappreciated and Yan Kuan epitomises all that whenever he shares a scene with Kara Hui. If there is one reason why you must watch this complete mess of a series, one reason is the melancholic gentle beauty that is Wallace Huo and the other for the powerful bitter woman that is Kara Hui. I am fan girling. It is like 1 story at the start, another story in the middle and in the end it self disintegrated, a series so suicidal it just did itself in at the end. The new drama will feature the same co-producer and scriptwriter from Light the Night. Oh it hurts! He had to marry a woman he did not love. FU!!!! Anyway this character as he goes along shows his heart of gold. But even if she didnt love Yan Kuans character, she might never have fallen for Wallaces either.
