#cdrama directors: the concept is woman whom has been taken advantage all her life by her family and the patriarchy finally breaks down and declares war against her own clan.
#LiMeng: hold my porcelain tea cup.

@winterwoman112.bsky.socialGive this woman a Golden Rooster, an Emmy, an Oscar, just everything! She literally ate all her scenes!

@danisdiary.bsky.socialCousin, you are so damn stupid to think you could get away from this alive.
@danisdiary.bsky.socialJinqi gave Xingtang three options, they all pushed the Zhao family to choose the third one: divorce. He gave her the opportunity to keep her reputation and life, but her “freedom” is an illusion. And, so, the patriarchy screws everyone once more.
@danisdiary.bsky.socialHow was this episode 45 minutes long? It felt like 20 min tops. MY GAWD that flew by. The tension, the acting, the storytelling. Lin Jinqi ate and left no crumbs.
@danisdiary.bsky.socialI just started episode 8 of #AgainstTheCurrent and nothing has happened (yet) but I AM STRESSED. Lady Zhao clearly walked into a trap right into her clan’s house. Young Master Lin is ruthless.
@shaguagua.bsky.social
@danisdiary.bsky.socialJinqi’s disappointment is palpable but not because he confirms Lady Zhao is cheating. He finally comes to terms that they were doomed from the beginning. They never shared any affection, not even attraction. Worst of all: they never respected each other.
@aimaiami.bsky.social#LiMeng, #AgainstTheCurrent has anyone noticed that our heroine has two true mothers (Lady Shen and her slave mother) while poor #LiMeng has none as her birth mother was clearly exiled and her official mother the Zhao tai tai is weak and doesn’t really love and support her?
@dramaddict.bsky.socialAll I can say is #LiMeng chews her scenes and has a stranglehold over me the same way she did as Princess Wanning in #TheDouble.
Her character in #AgainstTheCurrent was made for her, for real. I don’t know if anyone else can play her with such duality.
Seriously, I need to find her other shows
@danisdiary.bsky.socialWhat happened to the Sheng family seems like a point of conflict and shame for Young Master Lin.
@cdramanews.bsky.socialThe cdrama #AgainstTheCurrent shares new characters posters featuring #TanSongYun, #LiuXueYi, #LiMeng, #ZhengHeHuiZi and more!
@ormelling.bsky.socialAnd of course we know how brilliantly #LiMeng our evil princess from #TheDouble can knock being a villain right out of the park. Our poor FL is in for a lot of pain. 😬I'm already biting my nails.
@tinacmml.bsky.social#LiMeng as Lady Zhao seems more complex & her arc more interesting as thought.
And she's only in mdl as guest 🤔
In summary after ep5 I think writing, atmosphere & cinematography reminds of #TheStoryOfMinglan & #TheSwordAndTheBrocade
So if you liked these I'd give it a try
