'Don't' king the land !!!

Ahhh!!! Where should I start from ?

First I will talk about the Reasons to drop this show ..and trust me I have plenty ..
1) this drama has absolutely no story ..I mean it .. no story at all. The plot is flat ..like you are watching few individuals vlogging their everyday life. Come on!!

2) the consipiracy and suspension which is barely there, has no pinch of creativity to it.

3) absolutely lifeless dialogue writing which is apparently full of cringe , I mean you cannot find even a single phrase in entire 16 episode show , that retains in your mind as a good dialogue iykyk.how can any writer be so 'talentless'. There is only go- hard ,go-hard type nonsense.

4) well I am not the fan of these lead actors either .. their looks are just average and acting is even more pathetic . How in the Mary's world can you call her smile 'million dollar worth' beautiful?? 5$!!! i will pay maximum 5 $ for her smile . And my dear ML has no expression, I don't know if it's his botox or something else that man has same expression throughout the show, when he is happy, jealous or sad he looked the same. While he is quite popular in the list of top actors on MDL ..but how and why he is popular ??? Please Don't ask me.

5) no msg to the story ... I know a lot of dramas fall in no msg category but they commonly compensate it with an entertaining story ...meanwhile this drama has neither story nor msg ..AN ABSOLUTE WASTE OF TIME.

Now I will come to the reasons for which you can barely sit in front of screen and pretend like you are watching this show ( no reasons to watch for real)

1) the cindrella story plot ... See!! if you are the type who can watch just anything as long as FL and ML are in love and if you are a fan of rich guy falling for pauper girl ..you can definitely give it a try.

2) the trip/vacation segments were okaish ..

3) the segments where FL and her besties celebrating each other special occasions were the best segments in my opinion. Those scenes were funny and entertaining.plus it was refreshing to see the emphasis on sisterhood.

In the end I still can't convince myself to convince someone else to watch this show ... This one was Totally waste of time and mood as far a my taste is considered.

Cliffhanger love story

The story was moderate to complex. Plot revolves around the FL who happens to be a part time prostitute cum contract killer working for a pavillion run by PM of the state to kill his rival in politics.
Where he used to trained kids to become deadly killers.
Though everything was quite interesting but there was nothing surprising about the entire story ..you can pretty much predict what is going to happen next. And honestly speaking I actually got bored in the middle of the series (Either way I sticked around)
Just to figure out it was a cliffhanger sort of ending. ?‍??‍??‍??‍?

The ML and FL are gorgeous❤️❤️ .. chemistry was amazing?? , to be specific their love making scenes very detailed ..I haven't seen such love making scenes in any other drama (150-200 to be exact)) so far ... THE ACTORS AND THE ENTIRE TEAM MUST BE Appreciated FOR Delivering SUCH REFINED PERFORMANCE.
though the character themselves were quite boring ??? NGL the FL was pitiful ..being a killer she can do amazing kungfu yet her personality was so timid...aaahhh !!! ????

female character are portrayed stronger than Male character which is the another best thing about this drama ..
Background Music/ ending sound track was lovely.


Overall a Good watch

Demon of boredom and cliches

A great cast but can't justify the shortcomings of the story, which is boring and moves too slowly.
Despite being a fantasy-based show, the instances of magic and fantasy elements are surprisingly minimal, which is disappointing for a show about demon as ML.
The lack of imagination in the storyline makes it hard to fully engage with the world the characters inhabit.
The framework of the plot bears a striking resemblance to numerous other K-dramas, such as My Roommate is a Gumiho, Tale of the Nine-Tailed, and My Girlfriend is a Gumiho. The repetitive theme of a supernatural partner losing something crucial to their existence within a human counterpart feels uninspired and overused.

Additionally, the suspense throughout the series feels baseless, lacking the depth of conspiracy needed to keep viewers guessing. By the sixth episode, it becomes all too clear who the real villain is, making the story predictable and less engaging.

The chemistry between the leads is nice, but they sometimes seem awkward together. Their acting is good, though. But the lackluster plot and predictable twists ultimately prevent it from reaching its full potential as a captivating fantasy drama.

Watched it Only for the last 7 episodes

First blow to the rating is because of Esther yu ...let's accept her performance was pathetic..Fairies are playful but her fairy character was "retard".. absolutely zero acting talent ... Annoying voice modulation ... Though her character was quite serious and had no necessary demand to over-act this superficially cute .. yet hell knows who suggested her to that act this way
.Even in the serious situation she doesn't give her cringe a break.


These things are even more highlighted when your co actor is an immensely talented artist .... Dylan wang on the contrary played her own character better than herself during the soul swipe parts ...


Enough ..let's discuss the good parts

Both ML and PML did an amazing job ..effortless performance.

Vfx and stunt scenes are on spot ...

I love the soundtracks.. I don't remember but the opening soundtrack gave me a feeling of nostalgia..like some other drama has a similar sounding track

One of the main highlights of the show was their costume design ... Big thumbs up to the stylist and designer.

Chemistry between leads was 95% form Dylan's side ... While FL was busy acting like his daughter in that annoying child voice ?

Plot was little slow paced and very ridiculously multidirectional ..things got a way out of track in median episodes when they visited the mortal world ... Things accelerated from around episode 29 ..

Bottom line : this particular story was not meant to be stretched all the way to 36 episodes ...for what it's worth even a 16 epsiode series would have been enough and more intriguing.

PS: I loved Dylan wang's performance this is my first drama watching him act ...looking forward to more .. XOXO

If only the story was a little better ....

Actors were good characters were lost ...

Story started good with 'avenge the father death' plot so I was expecting the FL to have be smart,strong and independent person .. she even took a strong decision of changing her appearance ..but as the story flows I can't help but question how someone so stupid as her can become a doctor. Her character was slow ,boring and irritating like she believes every crap she is been told by absolutely anyone and even after committing grave mistake like stabbing a person she walks around shamelessly ... No regret whatsoever .. futher stabbed him second time for the same confusion without being bother to clarify the theory ... Though stupid characters add dimension to a story but seriously this stupid ..???

Adding to the glory of FL ML was equally annoying ..he is living in a delulu that he can save the world by his silence. He has this intention off giving away every useless crap but any important information ..

But as dramas are purely fictitious we cant think of relating them to logic . I mean it takes away the fun ..

Story could have been better as it moves slow and few things (like what her father's imperial army was like ) remained a bit loose and confusing

Worth watching ?? Yes ... For one time why not ???

Worth Repeat watching ... Aahhhh !!! Nope ?

very convincing and unique plot

story is basically based on two priniciple
1) you and only you (no one else) can change your fate. nothing or no one in the world can take the role in your instead for the fate that is been decided for you.
2) once you are ready to let go of everything and hold no desire than only you can become actually free.

other than psychological angle i find this drama also had that deeper than thou love story ..the dynamic chemistry between the leads (so called side characters acc to fate book) which gradually ended into both of them giving up on their lives to protect the other... OMG !!! what to say i am little old school and i always long for such romance in my life ...

the only negative thing i felt was cheapness in fortune writer'character that he suddenly erase the fate and rewrite it again ... but anyway in the end that all made good sense

is it worth watching ..totally
is it worth rewatching .. of course ..may be after sometime when you suddenly want to know how fate works in your life ...

The proper revenge rebirth plot with satisfactory dosage of hell fury

Revenge/rebirth plot always have a strange attraction to them ... As they are not based on fairytale love but mostly based on the real emotions we face in our lives ...betrayals ...heartbreaking.. backstabbing etc ... This series too had the same feel to it ... But what made it more attractive was the act performed by the actors ... FL took the revenge thing to a next level .. the way she acted like her eyes full of anger and disgust everytime she looks at the lover who betrayed her .... WOW .. you see I am very peculiar about emotions, they have to match the plot .. and this particular plot needs to be acted with grey and perhaps black emotions ...

Both FL and ML are cute and good looking ..their chemistry was amazing ... Story wasn't boring at any instance ...it was constant in its pace quite realistic...



Strongly recommended

There is no reach to PERFECTION but this one was very close to that

A story that you can cherish as a re-watch ..
I am going to put it in point for better understanding.

A) Points that make it a series worth your time :

1. blend of huge range of genres (romance,comedy,action,thriller,suspense,feel good,crime & little melodrama) a perfect balance of all .
2. An amazing cast ... Not just the leads but even the supporting cast was the best ... Cant point a single glitch in the cast.
3. A story with good writing and consistent pace. plot was to the point and writing was indeed remarkable...there were no cringe/ cliche' as far as dialogue writing is involved ... All characters have nice screen timing and their dialogues complimented the characters in a way that viewers will feel attached.
4. Chemistry between characters/connection between the character was indeed perfect ... We often look for chemistry between the leads ..but in this particular series I felt the warmth of every relationship..like the character of Su Jui'er's mother was so beautifully played that you can actually feel it through the screen ... Same goes for Chi Lan's sisterly love for Han Zheng or Jun'er's friendship with Han Zheng and Su Jui'er,her God father's love for Jui'er . We often ignore the connection between side CHARACTERS but this series made these relationships so impactful almost impossible to ignored.
5. fantabulous fight scenes and clean VFX ... I rarely re-watch fight scenes but in this particular series I actually replayed the fights scenes quite a lot of times.
6. No absurd kitchen politics or vamp slapping bullshit ... The story was clean ..there were no cheap concubine/ex-fiance crap... It was just about two people who come together by fate ..fall in love ... Chose each other to spend their lives with ...simple as that ...and that's how I personally like it.
7. Even the villain was handsome ... Entire main cast was good looking specially male characters ... Han Zheng , Jun'er , Crown prince, Mu yan etc including Female character like chi Lan.
8. Female characters with amazing action scenes ... I enjoy the series that have female characters performing action scenes ... ChiLan provided me with that thrill.
9) LOVELY CLOSING SOUND TRACK
10) happy ending ...

B) Points that I felt about this story that could have been worked on :

1. Female Main lead character could have been better ... I loved her character so much ..she is smart ..comic ... Independent... Intelligent... Beautiful.. but I still felt her character lost a the emphasis during final few episodes .. may be because they wanted to portray her as a saviour of the entire Qi clan but I personally expected her to come up with some smart alterative solution instead of just giving up on her life, given that she was the smartest character of teg entire series I can't just accept her to chose a flat and boring solution. If you know what I mean.

2. Some characters just disappeared in thin air and never got the final verdict ... For example the character of Qian king,he appeared in previous episodes then he disappeared like that ... Come on he was the king atleast Give him some scenes especially when you are discussing political matters between two tribes you are supposed to put some scenes with their leaders.

3. Happy ending but with loose ends ... Where the hell did Mu yan go ??? He was the main villian,still he got a single episode appearance ... On top of that he was not given any closure.

4. Plot unexplained - fragments of story like ..death of real crown prince-princess, Jui'er's father's attempt to steal the Qi amber fire, mu yan association with snow flake organisation ...etc ..there were a lot of fractions in the story that were left unexplained.

5. Crime cases were quite less ... Single case took more than necessary time to solve which lead to inability to accommodate more important things .. in my opinion the crime cases were stretched a way too much.the writers could have accomodated more details in story if it were not for the stretched cases.

6. Happy ending with absurd twist ... ML becoming simple Quin and FL going bizzare with Qi powers was the most childish and nonsensical ending twist that I have ever seen ... For a story with a wavelength like this one I didn't expect such irresponsible twist .. I would have appreciated a rather simple ending instead of this cheap twist.


Taking all points in consideration I still think the good outweighs the bad by many folds ..

**** making it one of the best shows I have ever seen***** ..

STRONGLY RECOMMENDED ( just watch it you will not regret )

Re-watch value : good

"Vai all'inferno"

Wow!!! This is such a standout K-drama with a truly unique theme.
Park Shin Hye looking absolutely gorgeous throughout the show, her stylist did an incredible job with her wardrobe and overall appearance on top her incredible acting skills .. ❤️❤️
Jae-young Kim adding his own charm, his character have started developing intense in these later episodes.

The best thing about The show is its fresh take on the supernatural demon/angel theme. I mean Instead of the usual devil taking revenge or acting out of curiosity, This one has a devil with a clear mission: delivering pure judgment, makes the story more compelling and purpose. Plus the amount of gore, which you don’t usually see in K-dramas.
The graphic portrayal of justice adds a gripping intensity and love story is very much on the sidelines ... And focused on the main theme that is justice and retribution.
To me the highlight of this show is watching the devil make wrongdoers feel every ounce of pain and abuse they inflicted on their victims, not gonna lie this delivered a strange sense of satisfaction. It’s about absolute justice, and the way it’s delivered is both chilling and satisfying—you can't help but feel a strange sense of closure as each judgment is passed.

Ost and background music is bomb.

Edit : just finished watching ep 14 ...

The last episode was a blockbuster .. ultimate trial .. emotional climax ... And a huge wordrobe (17 outfits in single episode... kudos to sponsors and stylists) this episode had it all.

I CAN SAY THIS ONE IS MY FAVOURITE KDRAMA AND IT'S GONNA BE FOREVER. ❤️❤️❤️

I don't wanna watch Xu kai doing such horrible drama ever again

The story is crap ..not gonna lie this was one of the weakest plots that I have ever seen. Why I say so ?? Cause you will watch 3/4th of the drama still won't feel attached to the story ... The feeling of excitement to watch the next episode was totally missing ..just imagine the amount of disappointment.

Xu kai is a fantastic actor He delivered best on his part but in the end he can only play his own role .. I feel bad for him as don't know for what reason but his chemistry with his co-actors has been compromised in last couple of shows ...in best choice ever it was the same .. I hope he gets some beautiful and talented co-actress who will bring out his charisma again ...

Esther yu was terrible like she is in most of her dramas.she was the same in 'Love between devil and fairy' two years back .. her acting skills haven't improved at all,she is hopeless. In fact the rest of the cast performed way better than her. I don't know how chinese casting works but she has no chance to sign even a junior artist role for the third class acting skills she owns.she is the only grade less actress who gives kissing scenes in a child voice, making it even morally incorrect.

The plot was stuffed with a lot of details but somehow the mess created was so much that it lost its core ... The plot was bulky in itself plus There were a total of 4-5 couples having their own love story which were dragged to the last altogether.. an Absolute CHAOS .

a few more things 'louder than dialogue' background music ..basic and ugly costume .. multidirectional approach with no straight execution of parts were responsible for not delivering the drama in its whole potential

If i have to summarise, it was just the hard work of the entire cast ( minus Esther yu) that kept the drama breathing otherwise there was no hope whatsoever.

Chaotic? Oh, absolutely ?‍??

I can’t understand how people rate this a perfect 10. The writing is sloppy, and the thrill feels forced—classic signs of limited creativity.

1. The ML: Horrible. He finds a resurrection orb and uses it without a second thought—thank God it had limited uses or he’d be reviving everyone. He ignores a dying witness to chase his ex… and fails at that too. Annoying? 100%.


2. The Legal Plot: A mess. The villain’s either too smart, or the police are brain-dead. Seriously, how did no one see the fishy prosecutor? Don’t even get me started on the mother-daughter duo who kept causing national chaos.


3. Too Many Characters: They tried to add depth but only ended up creating plot holes. It was too much for such a light story.


4. Forced Thrill: No clever conspiracy here—just leads being too dumb to figure out the obvious.



On the bright side, the lead chemistry was fire and, finally, we got an explanation on the ML’s resurrection (most shows skip this). The story got better with the second villain, but much was left unexplained.

Background songs were good though !!!

Watch till episode 4 to see if you can handle it—personally, I skimmed the episode guide to skip the fluff.

Deserves every bit of its 20 M YouTube views ..

Short ..feel good ..romance ..light comedy ,best package for a binge watch. The plot has twists but not the type that entangle with each other ,dragged to 20 episodes and bring the whole story down ... There is a OG contract fiancee soft lovestory surrounded by all sort of pranks and conspiracy but they are being solved simultaneously keeping the freshness in the story intact ...

I loved the way this series portrayed the emotions of a homosexual boy for a straight person and I loved none of them very unapologetic about their feelings ... We often talk of China as a country of controlled speech ..but in this particular case I must say it better to be unapologetic than being called Homo-phobic just for being straight (like we do in west)

Cast was lovely .. FL has appeared in support roles in a couple of shows I have seen . Her performance as a FL was very good ... ML character is sweet and charismatic... Played extremely well by the boy ...

On the whole I can NOT pick any reason to criticize this show ...
Worth a re-watch : yes

Waiting for the next season . <3

Even the writer of the show doesn't know how to finish the crap he started

Richard li makes me watch these crap shows ...if it weren't for him I would have dropped it long ago.

The plot starts with FL being a pet-cum- spy to a psychopath prince ... Who is apparently using her to do all the bad jobs on his behalf ... She is shown to be very talented martial artist ..con artist .. xyz ... Nothing less than a proper intelligence agent at the beginning of the show .. but when it comes to save herself in the later episodes she suddenly becomes the most useless person alive ... Seriously I don't know who tf writes these cringe series .. in the beginning they show these characters so invisible and turn them so dimwit and good for nothing later ... Can you beleive a so called SPY can't find her way out of a bloody palace ... You want me to Beleive this crap ..hell no .. the so called SPY has no talent other than being a concubine and sleeping her way out with the prince .. at first she had fighting talents later she is so helpless she can't even slap him ... WOW ... Logic died ILLOGICALLY...

Male lead had no heroic role ...he is pretty much like a potato rolling down here and there

FL's styling sucks ...her hairstyle is most ugly hairstyle I have ever seen.

The villian is a loser who can even win ministers favours yet stupid ML helps him win the favour and help him become more power ..I mean who in the right mind would do that ..

I can write a whole book on 999 reason why you should skip this show ... Remaining one reason is to watch it for the leads ...
I leave you with your own preferences
