@Fanua @katela @rLok Both my late parents were in the theatre when they met before they moved on to different things but kept their theatrical friends. My Mam told me an actor whose performance made her loathe them completely had done their acting job perfectly.

Li Qin did that for me in #PrincessAgents #Cdrama so thoroughly that I didn't forgive her until #JoyOfLife, I hated her so much!

I'll have to look for the book now. I didn't before because it was all tied in with allegations of plagiarism.

There are a number of Chinese/Taiwanese actors that have that ability, they are so good!
