Warm on a Cold Night:The summary sound cringey too me and I was afraid it’ll have too much fluffy romance. I’m on ep 24 now and I have to say the romance when it does happen isn’t cringey at all. As if to avoid cliche scenes, the production team/scriptwriter seem to reinterpretation all cliche romantic scenes with a ton of sarcastic humor (anime/comic kind of humor). The humor seem to strength the ml and fl’s chemistry rather than being overly fluffy/cringey type of romance. The story from what I can see focus on the story/crime of this made up universe. It’s actually refreshing and interesting. It’s also nice that the fl and ml are both evenly clever, compatibly clever 😊.

Acting: Li yitong’s acting is amazing period. She completely made me believe that she’s a young lady again as supposed being 30+ years old. I haven’t watch her in any drama for awhile. Watching her again made me remember why I love her acting so much. I also suspect that with her excellent acting she must have help her costars to get in character when they were acting. The ML I’ve never seen him before but his acting is pretty good too. I feel like he was pretty on point with a lot subtle expressions. He definitely has room to improve. But not once I thought his acting wasn’t good enough or that he was out of character. Enjoy his character a lot. My sister kept sayin he isn’t good looking. But I think he looks fine. I love his interpretation of his character and that’s what most important for me.

Clothing and hair: I have to say. I can tell this isn’t a highly budgeted drama because the fabric of their costume looks a little thin and cheap. But whoever designed the costumes made them look so cute and amazing (colors of each garment complimented really well with each other that make the costume stand out).. FL costumes are plentiful, colorful, and cute. I love the embedded colorful stones on the qi people’s clothing. General/sister’s red and white costume is my favorite (white over and red under creating an inside out look) and her hats are cute.

Camera/fight scenes: very awesome. I don’t know how to describe it wonderful interesting angling/swinging of the camera capturing unique moments of fight scenes. I want to point out the filming is amazing. Beautiful and interesting. Helped gave more excitement to fight scenes that might have been seen as normal/bland to certain audience.

I’ll probably rate it when I complete it. From where I am at ep24 this drama definitely deserve a SOLID 8.5 rating. (I actually finished the drama but realized I forgot to save this in reviews)
