【BTS】You must hold fast to what you believe is right in your heart.💓| Legend of Zang Hai | YOUKU
[This Episode’s Highlights, Emphasizing]
Our drama isn’t just about thrills. [Staying True to Oneself]
You must hold fast to what you believe is right in your heart. One might not always know what they want, but they always know what they don’t want. Hello, YOUKU friends! I’m Xiao Zhan, playing the role of Zang Hai [Xiao Zhan]
in Legend of Zang Hai. Zang Hai is a growing character burdened by vengeance and multiple missions [Zang Hai: A Character in Progress]
of revenge. [Q:]
What message should Zang Hai convey to audiences? [Emphasizing]
Our drama isn’t just about thrills. That’s not what I aim to express. I think we explore: When blinded by desire, or consumed by hatred, how should one act? What’s truly right? There’s no absolute good or evil, but you must [Stay True to Your Core]
cling to what you deem right. I think Zang Hai embodies this: He may not know what he wants, but he’s certain of what he rejects. Yeah. It’s about what I must never become. It’s key to his growth amid revenge. [Q:]
Analyze Zang Hai’s two skills: Geomancy and Strategem. Please analyze the two skills. Geomancy, to put it simply, [Feng Shui Master]
is reading feng shui. For Zang Hai, this is also a part of [Family Legacy]
his family legacy, Strategem runs throughout the entire series. [Throughout]
It’s something Master Gao Ming has been teaching him all along. I think it can be broken down into three parts: Perceptiveness. Almost supernatural intelligence. And the ability to read people’s desires and weaknesses. The thing he told me the most often was: Tell the truth to lie. That’s what he said was the highest level of Strategem— [Master is reliable]
deceiving through truth. To me, though, strategem is not just about deception. [Elaborate]
It’s not the word “lie”. Sure, in the show we use the word “lie” in a lighthearted, non-preachy way to describe it. But in my opinion, it’s more of a psychological battle, [Wits between opponents]
a contest of wits between opponents. [Q:]
Which skill do you wish you had? Honestly, both are important. [It’s hard to choose] One is feng shui, reading signs from the environment, predicting things like the weather. But in today’s world, that might feel [Out of touch]
a little out of touch. The strategem, though, is probably more practical [Pragmatism]
for me. Because essentially, it’s psychology. [Q:]
Zang Hai is great at reading people. How about you? [Sensitive]
I’d say I’m more sensitive, but not quite at the level of reading people’s hearts. In daily life, I actually try to [Emotional dullness]
cultivate a kind of emotional dullness. [Q:]
What progress do you feel you’ve made through this show? I think I’ve improved a lot [Precision with lines]
in terms of precision with lines. Our director was extremely particular about dialogue. Everyone in the cast knows this well. There were times when I’d say something that didn’t sound wrong, But if you changed just one word, [Why precise dialogue matters]
or swapped a phrase, the meaning really shifted. And your character’s state of mind and how you express your lines, I think it’s been [Help]
a huge help for me. [Q:]
What was the most novel part of filming this series? I’d say it was stepping into a genre [Some new fields]
I’ve never tried before. Revenge. Yeah. And elements like geomancy. Things I’d never explored before. So it all felt very fresh and exciting. [A new attempt]
