The embarrassing attempt to force laughter in a serious situation by ML.
I still want to keep singling out all plot holes for viewers who can't find a honest review in the comment section.
I've witnessed many attempts at comedy in dramas, but the male lead's comedic efforts in "Fang of Fortune" are by far the most cringe-inducing I've seen.
ML's attempt at humor is like watching someone try to squeeze laughter out of a stone - utterly fruitless Lmao.
His timing is off by a mile; punchlines fall flat not because they're written badly, but because his delivery is akin to a robot learning human emotions for the first time.
His facial expressions during supposedly humorous scenes are more suited to a drama about existential crisis than a light-hearted moment.
Instead of eliciting laughs, you're left cringing or feeling secondhand embarrassment...
His attempt at witty banter is equally disastrous.
Lines that should spark laughter or at least a smile are delivered with such lack of inflection or understanding that they might as well be read from a teleprompter. It’s like watching someone else's attempt at humor through a very bad translator.
Furthermore, there's zero chemistry with the cast during ML comedic exchanges except for (Bai jiu and Ying Lei). His interactions with comedic relief characters feel forced, as if they're trying to pull humor out of him with a pair of pliers haha 😂.
The lack of natural flow in a serious scenes due to unnecessary jokes by ML kills any potential for humor, leaving the audience with awkward silences instead of laughter.
In summary,
His comedic performance is a testament to how not to do comedy in a drama. It’s not just a missed opportunity; it's a comedy tragedy.
Hoping that in future roles, HMH either finds a better script or a comedy coach because this was nothing but a disaster to the whole plot.
You will want to break your screen and wished you are deaf during this embarrassing momentss...
More reviews to come about the plot hole.
