I'm happy that the Writers and Directors created this sequel from the Eternal Love Chinese Drama. I wished they would've started from the last performance of this couple, Bai Feng Jiu and Dong Hua Di Jun from the first Season of Eternal Love. Oh well, talk about performance... The best performance is from Zhang Ming Can who is playing the character of Bai Qian and Ye Hua's son. It amazes me that these young actors are really good. She did a beautiful job playing a male part. I love her finésse and personality! To remember the words she had to read and memorize for this character at her young age of 7 is beyond amazing. I miss the first actor, Hummer Zhang, who played Ah-Li he was a bright child as well, wondering why the producer didn't recast him in this part? I noticed a few actors from the disciples were back but playing different parts. I loved seeing the brothers of Bai Qian that were not in Eternal Love.

I probably will have to rewatch because the story was boring for me in the first few episodes but it picked up when Dong Hua went to the mortal world which makes up for the first few episodes. The visual fantasy was amazing. It seemed real to me. More action in this one than the first season. The ending was terrific! I could write more about this but I won't. This is a great watch.

The story of twin brothers who separated at birth but grew up to be supreme martial artists... WoW! I wonder how many twins are separated at birth in the real world? The storyline is telling a story that happens all the time everywhere. This story is unique even it is fiction/fantasy Fraternal Twins at that. The first episode was oh my gosh... well you need to watch it.

Chen Zhe Yuan who is a young actor of 23 just starting in his acting career is amazing. I loved how he brought this character to life with humor and seriousness in his acting, he has so much energy and enthusiasm. Hu Yi Tian 26 another young actor did amazingly well too. His character is the very opposite of his co-star CZY. I'm impressed with both. I noticed there were a lot of actors who were over the age of 49 and was very happy to see that they are some of the best in the Chinese art of acting. The two main female stars Vicky Liang and Liang Jie also both young 23 and 25 portrayed their character as they should and did great.

The Visual, Fantasy, music, suspense, costumes, hairstyles, the set design was beautifully done. The Martial Art scenes were pretty awesome. The romance chemistry was not there but I thought Vicky Liang was the only one with good chemistry towards CZY but one-sided. I did not like the RAT! This was great all around... um... the ending though...

I really don't understand those who gave a low rating.

Another story that has to throw another woman into the mix. It would've been a great story without love interests or secrets! I guess that's part of life, isn't it? I'm glad Hans Zhang's character, for the way it was written, was very loyal to Shan Shan. The visuals were great, small little town, Big City... I loved the Fireworks and the countdown for New Year. I love the Happy Ending!

I want to give a shout-out to the writers for bringing awareness to transfusions in an emergency situation. Rare blood types are very rare but these days we have to be careful about donating blood if you are not healthy or you have a blood disorder that can't be seen by tests.

Another cute Chinese drama. It had some fantasy. The martial arts were there and not there. The main leads and support actors/actresses tried their best. Some support actors didn't try hard enough. These were very cute and lovely actors/actresses. I loved the idea of a town that had marriage matchmakers. I think we need that in real life. I love the main actor and actress storyline. The beginning was very exciting but it fell through the roof. Some may really like this KDrama and that's okay. We all have our opinions. I'm just happy that it wasn't slapstick comedy. The visuals were very pretty and red.

Reincarnation for Season 2 is great! Bolin Chen's outfits were amazing and loved the long shirts on Jing Tian! What would do if we lived that long and stayed young? The storyline from the beginning to the end was awesome. I loved the Happy Ending! I also loved the idea when someone dies they can be brought back (sometimes)! The music was like the first season... awesome. I loved all of the cast, they did an awesome job. I loved the one scene where they had a manmade wall with waterfalls. The evil parts were not as bad as in the first season. The visuals were also good. I would love to see more of these dramas. Right now I want to see more of Chen Bolin. Bolin can sing! I need to see him dance as well. A great drama. When you can put a smile on my face, it deserves a 10!

What was that the ending!

The Drama Series was supposed to be 68 episodes long, China's central government wasn't going to give permission to show this drama but gave in so what they showed was cut it down to 56 from 68. So, what we have seen at the end was not really the ending. I feel that the ending of Novoland Eagle Flag is that Asulé planned the town to be empty because the Drama didn't get completed! I guess we can make up our own... ok... let me see. How about Asulé winning the war, he leaves his homeland and finds the Princess who now is the Emperor and he becomes Emperor Consort. Ji Ye finds his beloved the Goddess of War and they get married and he becomes the God of War. Suma goes into seclusion for her sins and crimes to re-cultivate herself and is still the Queen. Everyone lives well and moves on! DONE! ha!

Seriously, Turbo Liu who plays Lu Gui Chen / Asulé was awesome. TL was very believable and took this character and owned it. Chen Ruo Xuan who plays Ji Ye was sensational and very believable. CRX also owned the character he played. Lareina Song who played Yu Ran had me laughing all the time. Hope to see her in future dramas. With the music in the battle scenes, you can actually feel like you are watching the battle on the sidelines in person. The visual effects were on point. Those wolves though, oh my gosh, the graphic animations were on point. I just wished that the great scenes were not mostly night scenes and that is why I rated it a 9. I loved the little town the four were in. They were happy with no worries and living well. It always seems that brothers kill each other for the thrown. I'm glad that the writers didn't make the character of Asulé be part of sibling rivalry. I also loved Asulé's pet squirrel.

Kim Myung Soo who played Kim Dan such a cutie pie, I want to adopt him. I believe in Angels and this KDrama was right up my alley. Kim Myung Soo, you played the Angel part very well and you were very believable. I already check the background of Kim Myung Soo in his Kpop group Infinite, very nice, vocals are awesome. Shin Hye Sun who played Lee Yeon Seo, I mean seriously rude, she got that part right. Glad the Angel straightened her out. I need to rewatch this again. Archangel was very humorous to me, he did well. The storyline had me focused so I did not sleep that's how good this was. I love ballet! I loved the visuals! I love the music! The wardrobe was great. The cast and the rest of Angel's Last Mission team, couldn't have done this without you, I applaud you! Thank you!

Love is in the Air!

Tang Min, portraying Shen Jin, showcased commendable acting skills that initially impressed but later faced some setbacks. Her portrayal of the character, reminiscent of individuals who used to test my patience during my professional years, had moments where her high-pitched and bratty demeanor became a bit overwhelming. To mitigate this, I found myself adjusting the volume and even closing my eyes to alleviate the intensity. Despite these challenges, she undeniably excels in bringing out the bratty persona with an almost disconcerting accuracy.

The saving grace of the drama, in my opinion, was Caesar Wu's portrayal of Chu Xiu Ming. His character, initially stern and stubborn, underwent a satisfying transformation as he discovered a love for Shen Jin, a development that I welcomed wholeheartedly. Wu's commanding presence and graceful stature added a unique charm to the series, and his acting prowess left a lasting impression. I am eagerly anticipating more projects featuring this talented actor.

On a positive note, the set design was truly remarkable, complemented by an enjoyable musical score. The martial arts sequences, particularly those featuring Caesar Wu, were executed with excellence. I extend my gratitude to the writers, producers, staff, and the supporting cast for their collective efforts in making this story a captivating experience.

I have a deep admiration for YangZi; her performances in every drama are truly commendable. The storyline captivated my attention from the start. The initial scenes resonated with me, and YangZi's portrayal of the character added an extra layer of depth. What stood out to me was not just her acting but the serious personality she brought to the role, something I'm not accustomed to seeing from her.

It was refreshing to witness her as a soldier, portraying a strong and determined female lead. However, there was a subtle sense of something missing that lingered with me. Expressing my thoughts took some time; it wasn't easy putting my feelings into words. Having completed the series on January 1, 2024, I found myself overcome with sadness, particularly about the character of Deng Wei. The emotional impact caught me off guard, prompting me to reflect on the drama's title.

It seems there might be a second part in the works, and if it comes to fruition, I intend to watch it back-to-back. Perhaps with a second viewing, I'll find better words to articulate my experience. Despite the complex emotions it stirred within me, I refrain from giving the drama a negative review. The fact that it evoked such profound feelings from me is a testament to its impact, deserving the rating I have assigned.

This is a really good watch. I loved the storyline. I wished I could be a time traveler. I love this kind of storyline. It had me confused so I really had to go back and rewatch some of the episodes a few times. I get it now. Going back to the past and then going to the future had me so confused. After I figured it out, I was into the story. This is one of those dramas you can’t skip any episodes, or you will miss important parts… or ask yourself “why did this happen?” I really loved the two main actors/actresses, Lee Je Hoon (Yoo So Joon) and Shin Min Ah (Song Ma Rin) did very well. I felt sad for Song Ma Rin… I cried somewhat. I have to applaud Shin Min Ah for taking a hard role to play. If you see this drama, you will understand why I said it. I applaud the writers, directors, supporting actors/actresses, and everyone else. Thank you!

I have to give this a 10 rating, I am also a mother of 3 sons... I will also protect them with my life no matter how old they are. I can understand the story behind the Queen who is protecting her sons. She protected one of her sons who is a homophile. Homophobia runs deep in Korea. There are no protections in their laws to protect the LGBTQ communities in the present day. This Historical drama brought another side of history. It didn't show how brothers in killing each other for the thrown. It only shows how Queen Dowager is a danger to everyone who is part of the court. But like the historical part of Korea is similar to those in England, Rome, etc. I applaud Kim Hye Soo (Queen Im Hwa Ryung) for bringing a mother's pain, worry, protection, love, and support to her sons (grand princes) in this story, her acting was very believable. Kim Hae Sook (Queen Dowager Cho) was very believable that I threw my shoe at the TV. Choi Won Young (King Lee Ho) became a puppet for his mother but resisted in the end. He played a hard part to play. Moon Sang Min (Grand Prince Sung Nam) The things he had to do and go through to become Crown Prince that I cried for him. I thank all the other actors and actresses for an awesome job.

NOTE: Suicide ratings were very high in the historical era as well as it is in the present day in South Korea which is #4 in the world ratings. If you know someone who is having a problem... the worldwide number to prevent suicide is 988. Children are raised with honorifics and what is formal and informal. Suicide is none of them... we need to start protecting family members, friends, or those we don't know. The suicide cycle needs to be broken. Recognize the signs! Talk to your children, and teach in schools that bullying is not allowed on the world wide web. Don't become a Netizen who bullies others online.

In order for me to rate this better is to see more of it. I will have to wait for Season 2 but this is a very good story. It brings awareness to those who bully. I didn't realize that bullying was just that bad in South Korea where netizens can destroy those who bully. No wonder South Korea is in the top 5 countries with suicide rates. They need to make more dramas such as this one. It's funny that I watch and review dramas that I have a stalker on MDL. My personality is very strong so it doesn't bother me. I've been through worse. I hope everyone watches this, this is the 2nd such Korean Drama that I have watched about bullying. Bullying is one of the malicious crimes I hate the most.

Second Time Watching

When I first watch this was 10/6/2019 and it took me until 2020 to finish it. I was very inexperienced in writing reviews. Now, this is my second time. I hope the review is much better than my first.

This is actually a good action drama. Ji Chang Wook, just OMG, who played Kim Je Ha was amazing and very muscular and healthy-looking. I did my research on Ji Chang Chook and found that he wanted to learn more advanced positions in martial arts for this movie to excel in the fighting skills that he already has. Systema, Taekwondo, Aikido, and Jujutsu for this drama's action scenes I applaud and bow to him with respect His Martial Arts skills were on point. His Martial Art was like watching a dance with the great connection of his kicks and thrusts. His Stamina for doing his own stunts is very impressive. Another Korean actor will be placed at the very top of my favorite actor list. He can sing too. Since this is the second time, I have viewed this drama. I have basically watched everything he has done. Im Yoon Ah who played Ko An Na was also amazing. I loved her acting skills. Playing a weak female part is the hardest to play. The romantic chemistry was very believable between Kim Je Ha and Anna! The main actress Song Yoon Ah (Choi Yoo Jin) is very good at acting out a scheming woman. I feel this whole drama was about scheming and threats but with great fighting scenes. The actress who played Raniya wow those blue eyes were very blue! The guest roles for this were many. The storyline is very well written and so I thank the writers. Thanking all the K2 team for making this a successful drama.

Vin Zhang (Zhuang Yu) This actor, I will be honest, had bad feelings for him because of "Eternal Love". I could not watch any drama he did after that, how silly of me. That meant he played with extreme raw talent and he was believable in playing the character. it took me two years to watch anything he made. I had to grow to love this actor. I decided to watch and am backtracking to watch other dramas that I miss because he is now one of my top Korean Actors. I love this side of VZ in this drama. The botany scientist was very convincing. It shows his intelligence and that he can play different characters.

Yu Shu Xin(Yu Mei Ren), is an actress I just started watching and may have watched her in other dramas but Love between Fairy and The Devil is where I noticed her talented acting. The only thing about this drama is why I dropped a point off the storyline because the producers or screenwriters had her acting like a child continuously and I know from watching Love between Fairy and the Devil, I believe that is not her. I don't know why they made her look like her character was a spoiled child. I still gave it a 10 because I know that both main leads have great talent. Wow both are beautiful looking! Thanking all the other actors/actresses on the set and the team. I felt like Episode 35 was not the end. I wanted to see more. I am going to rewatch this again, one day.

I love this drama very much. I only had one hiccup and that was trying to understand the last 3 episodes. I had watched them like 4 times to get what the story writers were doing. I finally did. I hope that whoever watches understands the ending as well. The acting and the romance were livid. Zheng Ye Cheng who played Fu Jiu Yun did excellent with this character. I want to see more of him. Zhao Lu Si who played Zhao Lu Si Di Ji/Qin Chuan, I just love this actress, she is just incredible with her acting skills. Every time I see her perform in a drama, she works hard to turn into the character she is playing. This actress had me so emotional. This will be a rewatch for me. The fantasy and the martial art were good. The two main leads had me not so focused on the fantasy world which I love but my focus was on the story this time. I thank all the supporting actors and actresses as I always do because they also worked hard. The visuals were also good. Do not skip episodes are you will find yourself going back to watch them and understand what happened.
