Don’t be So Proud (别那么骄傲) – Chapter 4.4
September 22, 2016 by peanuts 9 Comments
I want to complain about the drama adaptation. It is 98% different from the novel, the only similarities are the name of the characters and the soul swapping plot. Hence book fans have been crying out loud to the author in weibo for destroying their Zhou Zhou, Xi Xi and Tang Tang. The author explained that because of the plot, it cannot be shown on tv so budget is limited. Therefore they can’t afford to hire well-known cast. It is understandable but what I can’t and neither can the author understand is why they’ve changed the story so dramatically until you can’t even recognise a dialogue from the novel. This is the downside of the author not being the scriptwriter. I’ve written somewhere that the scriptwriters hate the authors so they’ll always change the novel beyond recognition.
If you are not crazy about the novel and watch the drama as a stand alone, then it is pretty entertaining albeit a bit lame and silly. It is quite well-received with more than 70 million clicks after 4 days of broadcast. You can enjoy a few laughs and feel happy if you can tolerate slapstick and outdated style. It is something like a Taiwanese idol drama. Be warned that it may turn melodramatic later as with most Taiwanese drama. There is a lot more bromance in the drama compared to the novel. Lastly, the cast is bearable. In fact, I find Stone Tong kind of cute lol. He looks rather das.h.i.+ng in his black trench coat. Moreover he sang the one of the sub-theme duet song with Cyndi w.a.n.g. The author wrote even if she has to eat heart attack medicine, she’ll continue to watch and support the drama & I’ll be eating the medicine with her
