Make sure to watch this drama with a happy ending, it's definitely worth your time!
I'm thrilled that I ignored the negative comments and kept watching this drama. It's been a while since I found a series that could keep me interested, and I usually give up before the tenth episode. However, this time was different.
Initially, I had my doubts about the main female lead (Ling MeiShi) fearing she would be another annoying, childish character. And, of course, there was the usual abuse from the male lead. But, against all odds, I found myself getting hooked on the love story. The female lead surprised me with her character development, and her portrayal of love, sadness, and regret was impressive. All in all, it's safe to say that this drama exceeded my expectations
I completely disagree with the criticism that ML (Alen Fang) was one-dimensional. He improved significantly after mid-season. In my opinion, the director is to be blamed for making him look over the top.
The plot of the drama can be divided into two parts - the first being the "I refuse to admit I am in love" part and the second being about villains who harbor hate, and jealousy, and who cause heartbreaking deaths. However, I felt the drama was too lengthy and could have been shortened by a few episodes on both parts. 36 episodes seemed unnecessary, and 30 would have been a much better length.
But what I found most refreshing about this drama was the multiple kissing scenes between the main couple. In most dramas, scriptwriters fail to capture the physical aspect of love and expect us to read between the lines. That's plain ridiculous. Love is indeed physical.
I must say that the casting was absolutely spot on, particularly the choice of support actors for the roles of the general (Ni Han Jin) and the Prince (Leo Dong). They portrayed the characters' unrequited love brilliantly, and their talent and good looks were undeniable. Even the supporting actors delivered solid performances.
Overall, I can confidently say that this movie is worth watching more than once. It's a must-see for anyone who appreciates great acting and an engaging storyline.
