I'm always intrigued by Qing Dynasty dramas so of course I had to give this a try. I felt from the start it tried to be its own thing even though the premise is a lot similar to Scarlet Heart which any drama lover will know. It was a fun watch it had its problems with the story in how things happened or played out and the how the time travel/ wormhole thing kinda left you head scratching but despite that I still really enjoyed it.

The characters were all interesting and left me wanting to know more about them and see how they grew and I thought everything was well acted. Think my only pet peeve was how much they focus on the older sister at a certain point in the story and I was left wondering who the actual lead was.

I felt the ending was a nice wrap up and didn't leave me wanting more like most dramas do.

My conclusion is if you enjoy Qing dynasty dramas its a fun mash up but take it with a grain of salt and don't expect too much and just enjoy the ride. Its still very much a binge worth drama kept me on my toes all the way through.
