The chemistry is crazy good. Live action LWJ speaks volumes with his eyes and micro expressions, I love it. I read that the same voice actor did LWJ in the donghua and the live action, but honestly, it doesn't sound all that similar to me. Lots more emotion in the live action version, and his voice sounds deeper not unlike Wang Yibo's IRL.

It's really great. I still think it's so sad how much hate Wang Yibo got from people who didn't like that he was the hunk they imagined because of fanart and stuff - he did such an amazing job, I never would have guessed he's not originally an actor. I think it's interesting how the VAs kind of adapt to the versions they do the voices for - there are some major differences in the various adaptions and I think it's cool that they don't do all of it the same. I still think it must be weird for the actual LA actors though haha

I was surprised to hear that but then, I wasn't in the novel fandom so The Untamed was my first exposure to this story. I thought Wang Yibo was perfect and wouldn't change a thing. I already started watching "Love Actually" because he's in it and again, adorable. Definitely my new fandom crush.

Oh yes, it makes sense for there to be differences between all the versions and I'll get around to trying them all. But I suspect the LA will remain my favorite.

I'm not usually much of a live action drama fan (most of them have too much second hand embarrassment for me, I'm super sensitive about that haha). But I think it's nice that Wang Yibo gets all the recognition now (Xiao Zhan as well but Wang Yibo definitely was the one who impressed me the most). So i hope you have fun with it!

I can totally see that on the secondhand embarrassment. I've never been into much animated stuff for different reasons, but mostly because the voice acting is sometimes off putting. I also like watching actors do their thing, and the cast of The Untamed are all so adorable. I hope everyone's careers take off.

Yeah, I loved all the behind the scenes footage so, so much.

They were hilarious. The interviews were funny, too, though I felt a little sorry for the actors having to do so much promotion.

Yeah, they really seemed quite strained in some of the many promo events.

Tbh in some respects I like live action LWJ even more than the novel version, the novel doesn't get a lot from his POV and I think it can be a bit difficult to get into his head. The live action otoh is getting a ton of mileage out of even just what the actor is doing with his eyes and it's really endearing the character to me in a way the novel didn't quite manage.

Hard same. LWJ doesn't have much in the way of dialogue in the novel and you don't really get the same sense of personality as you do from WW. But in the live action, the actor really gets across both the stiff air that looks like arrogance and the times when LWJ is clearly struggling with his feelings, even when he doesn't have any lines. It's wonderful, really.
