Hi! My dp is from the show The Untamed! His name is Xiao Zhan. He played the main lead Wei Wuxian. I am in love with his smile.

Is the show good? And is it Wuxia or just a regular Chinese historical?
There’s not very many good Chinese historicals that I have loved and I haven’t been able to find a good wuxia since Battle Through the Heavens. I have been on the hunt since.

You can check out the thread I linked. It's not the best when it comes to cgi but it is a good show. End of Episode 2 is when the plot really begins. Despite being termed as "xianxia" drama, The Untamed consists of many elements from traditional wuxia dramas and fused with a new style

The series received a score of 7.8 on Douban; and is the most rated Mainland series on the website. It has a total of 4.7 billion views. It's one of the most popular dramas of the year.
I could write a whole book on why people should watch this drama :sakUwu: Do give it a try!

Wow there's actually a BL drama being broadcasted in Mainland China? Or did they get rid of the BL element and just make it no-romance/straight-romance? Or is it a web drama?

Either way, I'll give it a try. I have been thirsty for a wuxia drama ever since Battle Through the Heavens ended. I haven't been able to come across any that I have loved as much though. 🙁

How is the acting by the way? I found that one of the main issues I have with Chinese historical/wuxia is the acting (and sometimes the dubbing).
