truly a masterpiece
Hello! This is my first review so bear with me.
Firstly, as someone who's watched quite a few cdramas and especially historical cdramas, I have to say this drama really took the cake as #1 on my list.
The first 1-2 episodes might throw you off, but if you keep watching it'll keep you hooked and is incredibly bingeworthy. The pacing of this drama is the best, not too fast not too slow. As someone who is a chronic fast forwarder, I didn't fast forward one bit. It's got comedy, a compelling storyline, great acting and casting, beautiful cinematography and costumes, martial arts choreographed perfectly, a bit of politics (not too much). *the costumes and fighting scenes were one of the best* There isn't too much romance I have to say, but don't worry, you'll forget about the romance aspect and be engulfed in this drama.
For me what really made this drama stand out were the characters and how they weren't all 1 dimensional. All incredibly well written, each character shined no matter if they only were present for a couple episodes. The main character, Fan Xian, had everything you would want in a character. He was hilarious to the T, intelligent, a kickass fighter, and his wittiness, I felt was super unique and made this show even better. The acting for all the characters were top notch displaying perfect expressions and emotions and made everything feel so alive.
The main character's family scenes were pure gold, it really helped bring a softer tone to the story.
I'll have to admit, i was a bit disappointed with the FL's character (dont get me wrong the actress was A+) but I quickly figured out that the love story was not really part of the big picture. But other than that, all the other female characters were freaking amazing! They were all super badass in their own ways.
Also the ost for me was beautiful with the flute lol its on my playlist.
Anyways, i hoped this review helped a bit, pls go watch it! You really won't regret it! This is my first review because I feel so strong about this drama :) Feel free to message me if you have questions
*SPOILER-ISH ABOUT THE ENDING*
so it does end on a cliffhanger BUT ITS OKAY its part of a trilogy and there will be a part 2 and 3 so i think we can be assured that most people will survive haha
