i was smitten

xiao heng from "the double" absolutely grasped my heart! my fav was when he had his hair down. duke su is a meticulous and scheming character but he lets his guard down when it comes to the amazing female lead, xue fangfei.

zhang rulang from "when i fly towards you" was a total gem! every single time rulang shyly smiled on screen, i would shyly smile off screen. this character was very thoughtful, considerate, and the character development was a+. yiran was a+ too! 

ruan nanzhu from "the spirealm" captured my heart. every single time the character was on screen, i would have my eyes on him every. single. second. the actor, xia zhiguang did a great job bring this character to life and his eyes... OMG his eyes can communicate so much!! 

dongfang qingcang from "love between fairy and devil" was one of the fewer dramas where the ml is cool and extremely powerful YET he was also enjoyable to watch. this guy doesn't pretend to be confident, he is TRULY confident in himself. 

lan wangji from "the untamed" was the definition of elegant. the character feel like it's his responsibility to put on a mask and pretend to be unfeeling but he actually cares. perhaps, even more than others! 

ashile sun from "the long ballad" was the source of my fantasies for the longest time! the most memorable scene has to be when he made the fl surrender and he took off his mask to reveal who he really was. omg, leo wu did not leave my mind for WEEKS after that. 

zhou zishu from "word of honor" is the definition of sickly beauty! even the beggar look cannot cover his handsomeness and with apologies to wen kexing, i choose zhou xu! 

shen wei from "guardian" was a unique character who pretends to be innocent and a regular human being when he's around others. however, he actually has a secret identity and guess what? he actually does a good job keeping it a secret! 

xiao se from "the blood of youth" truly suited li hongyi. the stingy, always grumpy innkeeper who has a secret past and makes a bunch of friends? count me in!
