There appears to be a grain of truth to the rumours after all since a Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu reunion is indeed happening! Freshly released posters from the series no longer leave any doubt that a second collab between the two in the drama adaptation of the novel Black Moonlight Holds the BE Script. Since filming Love is Sweet, both Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu have repeatedly mentioned they would love to work together again. And with the amazing chemistry between them, that’s practically a no brainer.
Friction Amongst Fans Over Casting
A few months ago, there had already been talks that the Love is Sweet pair is gearing up for their second project in a xianxia entitled Till the End of the Moon 长月烬明. Whilst this is no doubt fantastic news for both actors, talks of a reunion weren’t received so warmly by some of their fans. Last month, both actor’s fan clubs released a joint statement imploring fans to chase stars rationally after rumours caused some friction amongst fans from both sides.
Now we all know some fans are notorious for being super protective towards their idols but if a joint collab is what their idols want and the chemistry is amazing too, shouldn’t they at least be supportive? A similar thing happened when Bai Lu was initially rumoured to be working with her Arsenal Military Academy co-star Xu Kai once again in Royal Feast. Unhappy fans bashed the couple pairing that show producer Yu Zheng was forced to defend the casting against the haters. Nowadays, their fans are in no longer in good terms.
Anyway, before I digress any further, here’s a sneak peak at the behind the scenes happenings for Till the End of the Moon which just kicked off filming on November 5, 2021.
In Till the End of the Moon, Bai Lu plays Li Susu, a daughter of the Hengyang sect who ultimately sacrifices herself to rewrite history and the future. Desperate to save the world from the clutches of the demon lord Tan Taijin (Luo Yunxi), she is sent five hundred years into the past to prevent him from turning into his cruel and bloodthirsty demon persona. Li Susu returns to the past in the incarnation of Ye Xiwu, Tan Taijin’s beloved wife.
The series also stars Chen Duling, Deng Wei, SNH48 member Sun Zhenni and Eddy Geng Yeting.

The costumes look amazing. I’m so glad they are not going with the white pastel costumes that’s plaguing the xianxia genre recently. They’re putting more effect into hair and makeup too. Everyone have a unique look!
Ella
Totally agree. I find Bailu’s gold outfit very interesting.

Fr, and also Luo yunxi alone has a total of 40 costumes just for this drama, what more for the others…Truly a high budget drama!
Seriously
Chinese dramas are caught in constant loop, NEVER ending xianxia genre. It’s literally the same storylines recycled. While South Korean drama/movies are breaking into international critical acclaim, Chinese dramas cannot break away from bored recycled stories. This new series is the exact story line of Lost in Love Times.

With the strict censorship from the government can we expected something new ? lol

This drama is nothing alike to post love in time >_> lost love in time is literally about a dumb rule that the royal family can’t marry the mage clan due to they could get too powerful. And how these two can love each other, but the girl decided it’s best for both of them to not. Plus the main male lead is a GOOD person, a protagonist.
Unlike this one, where the main female lead’s mission from day 1 is to kill him, not help him like in LLIT. The main male lead’s life was so crappy, that he couldn’t believe or trust for a second that the female lead could love him and therefore in a way, torture the living out of her literally >_> and the FL, while doing everything for him, never openly admitted she loves him, and even until the end, she would do what is right for her people, unlike LLIT where she would just do things to save the ML >_> so this xianxia is very much different from every other xianxia where their love seems to get in the way and it’s what cause the world to be in chaos. The mere existence of the ML is what cause the world in chaos >_>

If I hear the word Xianxia again I’m gonna 🤮. Write something new for God sakes. In the imperial age there weren’t only members of the royal family and officials. There were brothels, restaurants, tea houses, farmers, merchants,etc, etc. In Chinese mythology can’t you write about tales people have heard about. Why do you keep recycling the plots of hit dramas that aired over 4 years ago.

You’re not the target demographic for this show. Move one then. Some paying customers enjoy this type of plot.
Seriously
Yes we see the demographic for series like these (Move one then), intelligently challenged individuals living in fantasy. If you’re “paying” for this trash you DEFINITELY are the target demographic, 🤣.
Gomo
Then why are you so bothered oh mighty, intelligent, extra-terrestrial genius? Obviously, something climbed up your hole and you can’t scratch. There are tons of other dramas that cater to your trollish, sad life. Shoo. Make something of yourself and write/produce the show you want, good-for-nothing.

Please point out how this drama anything like the drama you claimed it’s a remake/copy off? Do you even know what it is about? Rather than the fact that it has time travelling element in it >_>
