Beautiful✨

The leads are amazing. The plot is interesting. There's no question of getting bored. Every single detail is well planned and systematic. All the jealousy, misunderstandings and conflicts are perfectly balanced. There is no overacting, the actresses carried on their roles, very swiftly. They are very smart and gorgeous. The fights are arranged in a very systematic manner. There's no bloody murders, and every fight is clean and interesting. Viewers will get excited with each passing minute. There's absolutely no misunderstanding. Even the villain's actions were balanced and well managed. The female lead, Janine Chang, did a marvellous job here, and so is her opposite, Zhang Han. Yang Yang was in his own natural way, as usual. And the songs are very soothing. The conspiracies were also, unbelievably properly managed. A must watch for the fans of Zhang Han and Yang Yang.

Felt nostalgic to the bones

Left me with a sense of fulfillment. When I Fly Towards You is by far the second most peaceful drama (the first being Hidden Love). ZaiZai is the cutest and the most beautiful character ever. Even when she's head over heels for a boy, she always stood her ground, boldly confronted the bullies and worked hard to develop a sense of individuality and independence within. Zhang Lurang.... damn that guy is one charming man. Quiet and aloof yet has a sense of responsibility and loyal to death. The way he was persistent on resolving every misunderstanding that came his way regarding his love life, it was a green flag right there! Every problems were resolved quickly within one episode and it wasn't dragged on much. ZaiZai's best friend Jiang Jia was the best depiction of how a friend is supposed to be. All in all, I loved the drama and it deserves the 9 rating through and through.

Not sure if it really deserves the hype

I literally forced myself to complete it, partly because of Yang Yang looking good in traditional Chinese costumes and partly because Lusi is my favourite. But even these two couldn't save the series. Firstly, I always have a problem with Yang Yang not showing enough expressions. Like, show me that you're happy/sad/angry/h**ny. Anything! Secondly, I felt like something's missing in Lusi's character. Bai Fengxi is undoubtedly strong and elegant but she didn't look promising as a martial artist as much as Feng Qiwu did. Guess Lusi is not made for martial arts characters. The martial sister of Xiyun, Bai Langhua, was annoying as hell. Like she was unsure of what she wants or thinks. Has some confusing and ridiculous trust issues with Bai Fengxi even after being her martial sister. And how come every living woman in the drama (other than the Queen) is in love with Lanxi. Even that maid of his mansion has a crush on him, like?????? I get that Yang is super handsome and pretty irresistible but this is just some kind of mindless fangirling dumped in the drama. Honestly, Feng Chang really raised my expectations of what he initially bestowed upon me. He was the most genuinely created character. Overall I think the drama had a promising potential but was ruined by casting teenagers and dry actors.

the most poetic of dramas

this is one of the best thing I've watched in a while. Dilraba won my heart and Yang Yang proved once more that why he's my favourite! I absolutely loved it! In this drama, you can actually feel the emotions the characters were feeling. The leads were so mature! Mature enough to dodge their toxic exes. Dilraba carried her role so beautifully, it seemed like it was God's grace. Yang Yang being the cold and tsundere type, just what suits him, did his part with utmost professionalism and vigour. The side characters were just chef's kiss! I am always open to watch this again and again because this will never get old! this was such a heavenly piece of art that I can't get enough of it

Highly overrated

Ji Changwook is a versatile actor and we all know it. Shin Hyesun is the toughest and one of the most elegant actress and we know that too. But here, both of their potentials were wasted big time. I can't even get started on the sheer ridiculosity of the story. The writer made some unbelievably stupid and irritating characters and just dumped them without a proper background. One of them is Cho Samdal herself. That woman's fake pride was high up the sky, and she was living in denial all along that she can never fail, because according to her, she is supposed to be the only one to succeed in Seoul from Jeju. Her bratty behavior and her demeanor was a pain to watch tbh. Next is Yongpil's dad, Sangtae. He definitely has some serious woman issues and was almost a lunatic. He blamed Samdal's mom for his wife's death when in reality it wasn't anybody's fault. I have never seen such a spineless man ever in my life. Imagine blaming someone else for your own incompetence. All in all, it was a forcefully curated slice of life drama where there's no slice of life in it. The only saving grace was the natural backgrounds, at least they were pretty. Eunju, the antagonist, was supposed to be annoying, but she was less annoying than Cho Samdal actually.

Uh... Okay

Honestly, started watching this after seeing Darren in Meteor Garden. And I've never seen this actress anywhere else. So this review is solely based on this drama ONLY.
It was cute, I'll admit. You'll see a lot of blue, pink and purple on the screen. But the story as a whole was cliche and kinda predictable. Also, I'd say that Darren somewhat made me annoyed with his bratty actions. And the girl was cheesy and cliched person, probably never moved on from the teenager hormonal self. She was too jumpy and too much talkative for my liking. I did like the second lead better, but definitely not his elder brother. He was a certified asshole with a face like an ASS.
But still, it was bearable.

The most magically woven drama

Let me tell you, I am NOT a fan of Xianxia or Wuxia C-Dramas, but this one just won my heart not once, but over and over again. The leads, YangZi, DengLun and Luo YunXi... They were just amazing. The story, from first to last, was so beautifully made, it feels like you're present right there, in the drama. Even the villains and antagonists perfectly acted their parts, making me hate them so much, which was in fact, the sole purpose after all. The way the story unfolded in every episode was just, Chef's Kiss. Yeah I agree that in some parts, JinMi was annoying and dumb, but you'll see that you can't even blame her for that.
All in all, it was the most amazing xianxia drama I've ever seen, and there were no scope of getting bored. I would definitely recommend this

Great plot

it was a great plot, no doubt. The sequence of events occurring in the drama kept me on the edge most of the time. but I think that the story progressed way too fast. At some point it was becoming difficult to keep track of the events. Dong Baek's past was given very little screentime, infact, we had to wait until the end to know about his special ability. Well, the acting was great, both of them were fabulous, also I think Sun Mi deserved a little more recognition, she was an absolute talented girl. Also, I would have liked a little more depth in Sun Mi's past but anyway, whatever they've shown wasn't bad either. I greatly recommend this, if you all love thriller dramas

Adorable

It's great but not as great as PYHOMS or ALSB but still it's beautiful and cute except for some annoying bitchy characters like Cai Yasi, Xi Yixing and Jia Yichun. They will annoy the living daylight out of y'all. But other than them, the story was fine and it progressed pretty beautifully. There was enough chemistry for the main leads but I think that if Fanzhou showed a little more emotions, it'd have been less than 28 episodes. Cai Yasi just got on my nerves so many times that he's the most hated character for me. He's damn annoying and always nagging Zhou Xiao to be his girlfriend. Same goes for Jia Yichun. She was a bitch all throughout the drama, till the end. But other than these people, it was beautiful. Give it a try, I'm sure you'll love it

It's disgusting

God!! My favorite actor is Yang Yang, but after watching him here, I was like, "what the hell are you doing?!!" To be honest, he literally pissed me off! And so did that girl! Ying HuanHuan!! In one word, she's a spoiled brat! She's just too much!! She's always whining and complaining about everything in the world! She's also an airheaded girl. Doesn't know anything about martial arts, still she boasts about it. She's always shrieking and screaming like a wild animal. I don't know how Yang Yang fell in love with her, afterwards. This girl is the main reason why I dropped the show midway!!

The story line was so boring

I personally think that this drama isn't worth your time. I dropped this even though I am that kind of kdramaholic who has watched too many dramas to judge this one. Let me come to the female lead! She's one idiotic bitch. She always plays the victim card when she's the meanest and the most bitchy woman ever born. And she's thick headed too. When she sees that she's losing in an argument, she's gonna play her victim card and open the tear tap in her eyes, if I was in Habaek's place, I'd have never loved her! Gosh! She's so damn annoying! She should have been the villain and Shin JaYa would have been better off being the lead character. Then comes Habaek. Goodness! He's another spoiled brat! He's so upright about himself that he really doesn't deserve to be the King of Gods. Personally I think that MuRa and BiRyeom were the most beautiful couple there. I'm in love with MuRa's acting skills. And BiRyeom, my goodness! Isn't he the most charming personality out there!!! Over-all I think that if y'all just skip this one, y'all will save yourselves from unending frustrations in the future

Humans are scarier than evil spirits

Fantastic drama! The storyline was so surreal and amazing, it will make you hooked on to your device until you finish it completely. But there are some drawbacks tho. For example, Sanyeong's mom was dumb and stupid till the very end, and I would say selfish too. She only thought about saving her daughter I agree, but in the process she endangered her. Her quest in saving her daughter was running away from every dire situation. She even concealed Sanyeong's father's family secrets and was acting like a lunatic everytime Sanyeong asked about it. She really pissed me off. Hongsae was a brat at first, but his senior's death changed him, and thank goodness for that, cuz I could not tolerate two annoying characters at the same time. He was greedy for promotion but later realised the real meaning of being a civil servant. Now coming to the evil spirit, Hyangi. Damn, she was a real tyrant, just because she wasn't loved by anybody. What I understood from her backstory was that, Hyangi didn't mind being poor, she wanted that happiness that was snatched from her by her own acts of selfishness and greed. When she said, "Why can't you love me?" to Sanyeong's mom, I felt her pain PHYSICALLY. Getting killed because of some psychopathic heiress of a business company wanted her husband's business to flourish, was seriously the most painful part, as Hyangi's teenage and the rest of her life was snatched from her without her knowing. That's why, humans are lot more scarier than evil spirits, and conclusively, this drama was super fantastic. Probably the best work of Kim Taeri.

not bad, not great

well yeah, I will agree on one thing. Both Tae-Hee and Se-Joo were annoying and whining bitches. They were so full of themselves that I almost felt sorry for Si-Hyun and Soo-Ji. Soo-Ji was actually very practical and brave kind of girl. Yeah since she was the second lead so she gotta show some evil moves but even that wasn't as irritating as Tae-Hee's normal behaviour. I mean... Yeah Si-Hyun did hurt you and that was wrong, but you gotta get acts straight girl! Everytime Si-Hyun comes with an apologizing puppy face, you melt down. I mean.... C'mon!!!! Have a personality of your own dude!!! But anyway, Soo-Ji carried the show way better than I had expected. Y'all can try it out once

Just beautiful ✨

I'm gonna say that, this drama was the most beautiful and well maintained one. It's a major success mainly for two reasons. One, the actors were not a fan of unnecessary misunderstanding and drama, and two, the main actors as well as the support actors, all of them have done a mind blowing job. Well, it may seem at first that the female lead is a bit clueless and airheaded, but as the story progresses, we see that she really has self esteem, which actually misses from some of the dramas. Being a bright girl, both by beauty and brain, she was what is called 'perfect'. The same goes for the male lead. Honestly, we always see the male leads are the gods of misunderstanding in other dramas, but here, trust me, he clearly knew what he was aiming at and what he wants, and that's why he was a pro at dodging every unpleasant situation that came across his way. He also believed in his girl immensely, and that's why he didn't pay any damn attention or interest to other people's opinions. These things are very rare in dramas. But since no drama is perfect, this too has three drawbacks. First, the lead actors took a long time, rather stupidly, to confess to each other, partly because Zheng Shuang was too much shy. Second, the friends of Xiao Nai were all idiots to be honest. Like they seemed like they won't know anything even if their houses were robbed. And third, some actors were so desperate that they made the mood sour sometimes. But other than these things, the drama was a hundred percent success.
