Re: Sticking the hair pin into her hair
Ok, this actually got a reaction from fans and mostly it's WTF? I'd agree- he looks like he's using her like pin-cushion. And it was such a weird dismissive gesture.
Sigh, ok, I'm going to reserve my judgement about ZWJ/ZM in this version, I think they've done an amazing job selling ZWJ/ZZR in this version but they haven't sold me yet on my OTP. Actually mostly they haven't sold me yet on ZM. ZWJ and ZZR both are solid! [You don't know how hard that was to write. Trepidation... I have such high hopes!]
Post-script: I went back to the Baidu page and noticed that they now have (maybe they always had?) ZZR's character description listed 2nd after ZWJ's. Combine that with the more experienced actress, and I have a feeling that the idea of this series is that ZZR is the female lead. (In Chinese 女一 is first female aka, leading female actress in the show) Note that 女一 doesn't have end up with 男一, just the one with the most screentime/plot-relevance/character development. Case in point is XAJH with Joe Chen and Wallace Cheng where Joe was clearly 女一 but she was Dong Fang Bu Bai.
