If you've seen A Moment But Forever you probably noticed its uncommon palette; the most common colours were salmon orange, greyish turquoise, and off colour brown. That combo is a good sign someone crucial in production is colour "blind". I put the latter in quotation marks, because people with this condition _do_ see colours - just not the way most people do. Compare to this still from Moonlight Mystique,

In Western fiction the Evil Side gets the coolest gadgets. That's _not_ a rule that applies to C-drama*, but here they get a consolation price; their lipstick game is On Point. _I_ want that red shade _and I don't even use makeup_! (Unfortunately different screens show different hues, but what I see is a shade between dark red and plum purple.)
(*Cool and fun gadgets are usually the property of the Good Side.)

I commend production for their modernized Evil Xianxia Overlord look, and their ability to letting a gigantic guan defy gravity (I _so_ hope it isn't stapled to the poor man's head)!
Also, do you _have_ to become Evil to wear purple lipstick? Asking for a friend.
New concept detected. Intriguing. Will poke around with it...
*sigh*
...in my copious free time.
Judging by the reflections on the sheets and pillow, production actually forked up for fabric with woven patterns (in this case they both look like matelassΓ©). That's rare; most dramas save money by using prints, even for common motifs like these. Given how they've skimped left and right it's a surprising splurge. But, who knows, maybe they found something sufficiently colour matched at the rental and didn't mind the off-level quality?
As per usual in a C-drama Zhi Dai's costuming grows darker when she gets a more serious role as a character. And I love her top coat here! Semi-transparent, with a checkered pattern, where intersections are adorned with silver pearls that shines likes stars against the background. A+ to the costume designer!
So you find your girlfriend by her wedding dress looking disturbed, and you are the Sean Bean of C-drama weddings...
OF COURSE THERE'S SOMETHING!
If this was Norse mythology instead of xianxia that cranky, sarcastic old man would be one-eyed, _far_ ruder, and end the interaction by mooning them.
Hm... in regard to everything;
Xianxia Vikings from mainland China won't show up anytime soon. Might be a pity.
