Zhao Yunlan seems to express himself openly, but he's always so aware of himself and what others think of him; he has his own mask
YES. I'm fascinated by the novel bit that ZYL's face is neutral so much when he's blind. I want to watch those scenes from the drama now, to see how/if Bai Yu incorporated that. I feel like he is less animated during that time? but figured it was just, you know, upset over not being able to see. Now, though....hm!
