Character evaluation:
The audience must know that Lan Wangji is a very reserved character, which is very difficult to express and grasp. Lan Wangji gives people a cold feeling. Coldness is a kind of temperament, tall and handsome. In the eyes of the audience, although Wang Yibo is young, he is somewhat interesting.
As for the eyes, the audience was dissatisfied when they appeared in the first and second episodes. As many people said, the eyes were dull, as if they were sleeping. The audience felt that they could not even imagine Lan Wangchun. When he was so sad, he felt like sleeping. It felt like no one could make him show his energy, so the audience was dissatisfied.
