I was captivated by Wang Anyu & Zhao Lusi's Chemistry
I watched this drama because of Zhao Lusi, I knew she would act very well but I didn't expect that Wang Anyu actually also has amazing acting skills. I've never watched a drama series starring Wang Anyu so I didn't have much expectations of him, but unexpectedly he was able to build chemistry with Zhao Lusi and his acting was really natural. His intonation is also good. I'm happy to see that he managed to attract a lot of new fans during Shenyin's broadcast.
Discussing technical matters, I'm actually not an expert in editing but I was quite disappointed with the CGI used. I'm pretty sure Shenyin is a BIG budget drama series, but for some reason the editing process seems haphazard. Moreover they don't even put any effort into the technique of transitioning one scene to another. The transition is so rough that I really wanna cry when watching it . This is definitely not the actor's fault because their job is only to act and follow directions from the director and producer. I was disappointed with the production team for not being able to keep up with the actors who put in their blood, sweat and tears to give such great performances.
But even though I'm disappointed, I'm quite happy that the producers allowed Zhao Lusi and Wang Anyu to use their own voices. However, an actor's acting ability is not only measured by their facial expressions, but their speaking intonation as well.
In terms of storyline, xianxia dramas are so complicated and I'm not a fan of the genre either. So I can't write much review but in my opinion as a beginner with xianxia, the storyline of Shenyin is still quite easy to understand.
In conclusion, there is no problem at all with the performances of the actors, especially the four main characters. They all have good chemistry and teamwork, I even enjoy seeing their friendship behind the scenes. Zhao Lusi and Wang Anyu are also serious about their work and have succeeded in building a good working atmosphere in their work environment. It's just that the production team didn't do their job very well so they didn't produce anything that exceeded the audience's expectations, but still, thanks to them for bringing Zhao Lusi & Wang Anyu together. I'm really looking forward to them being reunited in a modern drama!
Oh! all their soundtracks are superb! thank you for making Zhao Lusi sing the opening song and Wang Anyu sing the ending song. What an interesting combination!
