The Double (2024)

WAY OVERATED! 20 episodes too many. - GO claim 20 strokes/canes now!!!!

How is this rated higher than story of MINGLAN????
So upset to see it up there with the better ones that im giving it a big huge 1*


SUMMARY - KEEP IT SIMPLE or you'll fk it up
- they tried to do too much and killed a good one.
- A good base story and piece of art , destroyed by SCRIPTGPT fillers and nonsense unneccessary scenes.
- This piece is palatable i suppose, as i am doing a rewatch out of boredom.

1. Love most of the clothes
-//But whats with the fugly huge ACNE beads on the women?????

2. Love the showcase of Chinese Art, literature, Music
// But WTF with the flying fairy whatever woman and dragon to illustrate greatness in QIN playing???

3. If you want to be funny and show silly amazed audience faces, then show don't BLEED and CRY in the same qin playing scene!!!! Make up your minds ffs.

4. Plot was good bad good bad... ok.. then mehhhh BLAAAH
- Focus on the 'DOUBLE' and reduce focus the pointless cliche dead general revenge son, jealous sister shite.

OVER RATED, OVER DONE, OVER DESIGNED, OVER THOUGHT, OVER THE TOP - OVERCOMPENSATING
I mostly prefer period pieces as for architecture, landscapes, history, art & literature. 'The Double' started off with so much potential .. but flaws and cracks just started rolling it downhill. Good effort, i hope they learn from it and stop going down the rabbit hole of bad exaggerated cliches.

An illogical story and a little bit cliché!

I never thought my first review would be about an extremely infuriating drama! I cannot understand why I am the only one who sees everything wrong with this drama. The heroine’s decision is wrong and exploitative. How does meeting someone for just a few hours give you the right to impersonate her and take everything she had after her death? It makes no sense at all how the deceased girl’s maid would willingly go along with this and allow a stranger to impersonate her mistress as if it were the right thing to do. Even the excuse they gave was illogical. I can’t understand it; it’s complete nonsense.

The ML is the only thing keeping me watching this drama. Also, the atmosphere in general is beautiful, and the family crisis is my favorite type, lol.

RuoYao

Is the actress who plays Ruoyao really the girl from Only For Love? She doesn’t look like her. I’ve gone back to watch OFL for reference and she just doesn’t look like her.
Anyways, I was just wondering bc it’s bugging me, lol.
Well, I’m half way through of half of the drama as it releases and I’m liking it. Omg…Joe’s’ villainess character was hard for me to watch bc I’m so used to her lovey cute characters but I know those were back in the days, lol. I’m actually happy to see her change up and take on this role…which she did really good bc I hated her character😅
