I know what you mean..... I too am fine with changes as long as it kept the heart of the story... Sigh... the earlier episodes were very heartwarming... and I guess it raised my expectation too much. There are many good things they did right, but there are things that disappoint me too. I can't say I'm happy with the changes in the latter episodes. But there's nothing we can do... it is what it is... sigh...

--------------------------

I won't say much anymore, I just want to remember NQ-SS as one of my favorite couple, with bonds thats beyond superficial.

 

I agree what's done is done.  Still it breaks my heart thinking about what this drama and NingSang could have been if the drama had treated them better when I look at your adorable gifs

Here's Chen Fei Yu's farewell post for Evernight 

Here, he said, he auditioned for the role of Ning Que because he love the character that he read from Jiang Ye. Considered Ning Que as a role model, flawed that he is.

There were times I can't believe he is only 17 to 18 when he played this role.

Thanks for posting.  I'm glad he posted a goodbye.  I love what he said about the character. in a way I'm glad he isn't coming back as I think I might be more tempted to watch the second season as I'm already attached to him as NQ.

Yeah i read somewhere CFY stated he really like NQ role after read 将夜, so when he knew about the audition he excited to try. 

 

This is the loose translation from weibo machine translator.

 

Really admired his maturity and profesionalism on the set, willing to listen and learn from his senior, wishing Arthur CFY always keep down to earth and always keep up upgrading his skill and talent, and last but not least dont forget to keep study at school.

Thanks for posting the translation.  Yes, I certainly admire his attitude and professionalism and that he takes his education so seriously.

@mei2018, @epinklyn has shared the translation.....

Chen Fei yu seems like a good kid to me.. I respect him especially because he's still at a young age, but he's not afraid to work hard. 

Here's some new Pics that's been spreading in twitter 

 

I'm going to really miss Chen Feiyu's Ning Que and Song Yiren's Sang Sang

 

Especially given his background it would be easy for him to be lazy or unprofessional but he really seems like a genuine hardworking guy.

 

Thank you for the lovely pictures.  Whatever other conflicting feelings I have towards the drama I am grateful for the wonderful casting especially Chen Fei Yu as Ning Que and Song Yiren as Sang Sang

Really ? According to that list who is coming back?

I appologize ,  Big Typo . I edited my post, I was asking if they made an official statement on who the cast for Season 2 will be for Ever Night. Mydramalist hasn’t officially made page for Season 2 yet.. They usually make a page for a drama quite fast even with only two cast members being listed.

Coward! Lol

The changes made to the live adaptation kind of gave that vibe, don't they? Should this guess be true, i wonder if it is a creative change or a political one (due to higher up interferences etc). I really want to hear Mao Ni's thoughts as SS is kind of his favourite character. 

 

Overall, EN is not a bad series. Despite the declining quality of martial arts scenes and special effects, the production team performed quite admirably with creative fighting scenes that one only see in big budget movies. But, while it was an awesome adaptation up until the wilderness episodes, from then on it became a mess. Character development is basically disregarded in favour of puppy love. SS became a whiny, lovesick adolescent and NQ became someone who raised his hands in a bad way. For all the disfunctional personality that novel NQ had, he is not the kind who hits people unless in fights or life/death matters. And novel SS is not whiny or one who smiles too much that it feels creepy. 

Another excellent post from you and yet another post that summarises my feelings towards this adaptation.  I also felt there is marked difference in the tone and quality between the first and second half of the drama. Perhaps because the first half stuck closer to the novel?  I think if it had continued in that vein the drama could have been a masterpiece but it's too late now.

 

I would love to hear Mao Ni's honest thoughts.  By the way, both you and @lynne22 have mentioned some of  his other works.  Do you recommend them?

Thanks for the English translation

[Lynne 23,159]

@raziela Mao Ni's work are always an interesting read, due to different reasons....

You can see some of his current novel that are translated in this NU link :

https://www.novelupdates.com/nauthor/mao-ni/

 

There were 2 novel aside from EN that were most talk about. One is Ze Tian Ji, which I really recommend, and another is Joy of Life.

Joy of life also had an adaptation, but haven't aired yet... so I'm not sure if this is a loose adaptation or not.

@n3bula... I don’t know if they started filming at all. 

@lynne22.... you really love to read Chinese novels and watch Cdrama a lot. When did you become interested in those things . 

Thanks for the recommendation chingu. I will give those a chance.

The drama (EN) brought me to the book. While i know that Mao Ni has another novel adaptation Fighter of Destiny (?), i haven't watched that because Luhan or any flower boys don't appeal to my taste. I might check out the book once translation of EN novel is completed.

 

Well, not quite true. I did watch mybe 2 episodes of FoD? But the initial impression that i have is like I'm watching 10 miles peach. The costumes were very pretty pastels and clean, quite unlike costumes in EN that looks more rough and deconstructed (at lease for the those frim the lower level of society). FoD is also very bright, if i remember correctly and lacks the many outdoor scenes we enjoyed EN. But i could be wrong since i only watched a couple of episodes awhile ago. 

 

So, i can't really offer you recommendations of MN's other works. 

[LeeN 1,091]

I watch on youtube NG will replace by wong he di S2

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dylan_Wang

EVER NIGHT 2 has listed on his wikipedia

Although i am sad

Just to accept CFY had confirmed he left this drama

Anyway he and SYR is the best Screen couple NG and SS to me

[pad-hari 17,803]

Long time no see guys.  RL interruptions stopped me from posting in this thread. My laptop also broke down.  But i am keeping up to date posts reading in spite of my busy schedules.  I indeed saw the finale and kinda disappointed with the ending showing SS is dying in NQ arms. But we know there is a second season and will not be cheated with this ending.  I like this novel so much and I am expecting the 2nd season also to be good in spite of male lead and various characters change.  @angelangie can u start a new thread for season two to discuss the second part of novel or can we continue in this thread itself?

BTW happy new year 2019 to all ever nighters!!!!!

Edit:I will post my opinion in another post about the ending later.

Im still suprised how far Ive watched into a drama series this long, besides ROP. Lately, I can barely finish any kdrama that has only 16 ep. Most of recent shows have been a snoozefest this past fall/winter.

 

Cdramas have been a breathe of fresh air, even w/its long run/episodes.

I have gravitated to C-dramas over the last year too even though I think some of them are far too long.

Watched ep 52 -54. 

 

Why did NQ raised his hand at SS as if he was going to hit her? She didn't do anything for him to do that. I liked the XH fight scene it was cool. LQ doesn't learn he's so obsessed with becoming more powerful. I think the actor does a great job. Chao got himself a wife. I didn't see that coming. I really hope we see more of him in s2. I did enjoy the sweet NingSang moments. 

 

We don't know why the director decided to make NQ so needlessly physically aggressive towards SS.  He wasn't like this in the book or even the first half of the drama and it makes even less sense now he should be viewing her romantically.  Yet another inexplicable decision from this drama to further diminish the NQ-SS relationship

Thanks so much for responding.  I  will have a look at the suggestions

Thanks for replying.  That's OK.  For some reason I thought you had read his books before the drama. Yes, I think the FoD drama is more like the typical idol drama and overdone green screen like so many recent dramas unlike the more realistic feel and real sets of EN.
