Eternal Love

The story of this drama is one of the more entangling ones I have seen. There are the traditional drama elements to this show, some predictable, and enough twists in it (in my opinion) to keep you hooked.

I can equate this drama to a really good book. I could not put it down. I honestly had a hard time sleeping because I wanted to watch the next episode so badly. Each episode of this drama left me with the feeling of 'what's going to happen next?!' which is a rare condition for me. Usually I end an episode and go "hmm, I wanna see what's next." This one left me absolutely needing more.

The multiple story arcs throughout the show were fascinating. I am especially looking forward to seeing "Three Lives, Three Worlds, The Pillow Book" as the story wrapped around the two involved has me desperate to see more of their story.

By far, this drama is going on my list of top 5 favorite fantasy dramas. Worth watching every moment.

I never thought I would write a review for a show but this show made the cut. I didn't want to give it a chance even though there were a lot of recommendations. At first I couldn't get into it but after being patient and watching a couple eposodes, who knew the drama which I thought to watch in between dramas would become my main priority.
I liked everything, costumes, music and acting. Coming to acting, I'm not ag all disappointed in a single character. Everyone seemed as if no one that could do better them in that role.
I liked the main couple and I may be the only person or one of few that would say that feng jiu and dijun couple is my main interest. Almost after the quarters of the show i didn't want to watch it. But dijun and feng jiu couple haunted me like anything and dare I say I finished it for them(sorry to the main couple fans but what can I do when this couple is my bias. Somehow i have to express it. Right?)
If to rewatch, i may skip.few parts which I felt lagging and too much dragging. Other than that everything is good and just give the show a chance of couple eposodes is what I say. Initially it is not something I would have watched but I'm hooked.

I tempted to watched this after I finished the remake of eternal love. I was then astounded by the title "ten miles of peach blossom" really??? I think they should stick to eternal love which is the appropriate for this film. So okay.. the actors are great no questions with that... they are beautiful and really good actors...you really felt the sincerity of the main actor...the flow is well organized and the continuity of the story really good because it made me understand why these things happend.. I know by watching this it would be hard for me to comprehend but I was wrong.. it guides me to whaat the movie will go.. bravo to the script writers and the directors....

The movie really tells me that no matter what happend if you are destined to be then you are meant to be... no matter what other tries to break you up, they will never succeed beacuse that's the power of love... watch this and spread the love!!!

This Chinese drama throws you onto an emotional roller coaster and leaves you wanting more. From the start you get swept into the story, wanting to know more and more about the plot and characters. Throughout the show the characters have amazing development and some characters you always thought you'd hate you end up liking. The love in this C-drama is amazing, and the hurdles everyone has to overcome to hit their full potential is amazing. You'll definitely get addicted to the cast, and want to watch more of their works because they are all truthfully amazing. The intro song is beautifully made and everything about it is calming, you might even be able to fall asleep to that. Although I'm disappointed this didn't have more episodes, I recommend this one a lot, you'll love it.

This was my first time actually watching a Chinese fantasy drama and actually enjoying it this much as Chinese fantasy dramas I feel are usually bit too fake which is quite funny as fantasy dramas are supposed to be fake but I guess I felt they were overdoing those dramas with special effects this one though doesn't overdo it! it was actually very enjoyable as the girl isn't that one naive girl in all dramas that can't EVEN TAKE REVENGE! the plot twists in this drama where unbelievable like you watch one episode and your like oh I know whats gonna happen next and you get all happy but then your smile turns into a very confused look as you guess wrong. The emotions in this drama is crazy can't tell you how much I cried (I don't even know why I mention I cried cause I cry in all dramas cause I'm a huge emotional mess) the feels in this is real and in the drama there wasn't any questions that remained unanswered like some dramas have at least for me they weren't unanswered. Overall its a great drama that I enjoyed a lot and I say you should watch it to cause its great (Nearly all the dramas I've reviewed have been great XD) anyway I won't annoy you by writing way MORE as I'm sure by now you are convinced to watch this because of all the great reviews! Enjoy watching! :)

I hardly write comments on a show that I watched, especially on a TV series. This is my 3rd Chinese show, this fantasy drama Eternal Love gives me the opportunity to express how much I love the series.

Mark Chao and Yang Mi, rest of the crew and the amazing Director, I have to Thank each one of you for producing a beautiful series that shows every emotion that you could count.

MC and YM, I could not take my eyes off from the screen when you two are there. I wish I knew Chinese language so I could get most out of watching the show capturing every moment without reading the subtitles. YM and MC have an amazing chemistry and that's the "it" factor for success of this series! Without Mark Chao there is no amazing Ye Hua that every women’s dream of true love; absolutely you are amazing and your facial expressions say everything without expressing a single words and you really can cry OMG.

Yang Mi, I really think you are not only so beautiful but also a great and talented actress as your screen play character is pretty complex going from Si Yin, Su Su (real women that every man wants) to Bai Qian (the brave and kick ass high goddess). When you were sipping “Peach Wine”, I wish I can taste it on a tree top in the Ten miles of peach blossom.

Also I want to comment on EL – OST has its universal language and perfectly done without over doing it in the background.

I am watching the second time and enjoying, crying and laughing with sleepless nights. I have to say that I skipped some parts which I thought might not much to the main storyline.

Well after watching second time, I have withdrawal syndrome and I want to find another series but I am not sure I will be able to find something like this.

Mark Chao and Yang Mi, I would love to see you two together in another new series...

I have too many words that can show my love to this great drama and at the same time, I have no words that can express what I really feel. story wise, the misunderstandings killed me a few times where I yelled at my PC "Why? WHYYYY???" but I guess with a charater like the Crown Prince it was expected for him to carry the weight of the world... there was too many sad, tragic and unfair moments but I guess in the end it was worth it. I must say that to see such a sheeply CP turn into a predator-like man that earned to be with her while with her own consent, speaks volumes on how much he truly loves her and is determined to go no matter how far for her

Well-executed for the most parts; however, the CGI in some parts are not that good. This means that the CGI is sometimes not believable. 'Some' side characters and their stories are quite dragging but the main leads gave justice to the wonderful story of the main characters. It will be disadvantageous for you as a viewer to skip episodes because you will not understand the flow of the story. The story as well as the music is well thought of. Overall, it is worth to watch; however, if you are not fond of long and complicated historical fictions, this one is not for you.

I've watched both Ashes of Love and Eternal Love aka Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms. But I must say this is the BEST Chinese Fantasy Drama I've watched. I like Ashes of Love a lot too but Eternal Love's characters and casts are all so endearing. I was so addicted to this drama that I had to rewatch it many times. The only episodes I had trouble watching was from ep 20 to ep 27. The love story between the leads were so tragic I can't bring myself to rewatch. After which the drama picks up momentum pleasantly and brilliantly until Qian Qian regained her memory of her tragic past with Ye Hua. I swear I'll rewrite the script that instead of Ye Hua waiting punishingly outside the fox den for Qian Qian to forgive him... I'd rather he magic himself into the cave, seal the cave and hug her and calm her jealous nerves. :P

YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS DRAMA OKAY!!!!

This was the first historical fantasy drama I watched and lord it did not disappoint...It starts off a bit slow but when it picks up it just grips you that you find yourself clicking the next episode even when you know you have work the next day. The love story is amazing...No other words. Female lead brilliant..her acting was amazing and I love dramas like these where females are strong and can stick up for themselves so seeing Bai Qian doing her thing was just beautiful *chef kiss* Please watch this drama..espesically if you're new to the genre this is the perfect one to start off with you definitely won't regret it!

ps...you probably will cry sometimes and get frustrated with the characters sometimes but its worth it..watch it!

Never the say,  everyone has their own taste and opinion.  For me I guess, a sappy story is just not for me.... I hate the angst this drama gave me. All the misunderstandings and some hardheaded characters (I truly hate the Heaven Emperor for one example). Even though this drama may not for me. I must admit, this drama has the best concept I ever see. The whole setting, clothes and the animation as just too beautiful and breathtaking. All the actors and actresses also have done a really great job in their acting.  I don't expect the main lead and the rival love would be played by one actor.

This is probably one of the best intro's to fantasy Chinese dramas as this plot is probably one of the most unique and the world that this takes place in is amazing. This show was very well though-out as I even watched the other versions (Love and Destiny/ Eternal Love of Dream(Pillow book)) and they are all amazing. The OST is amazing as it is my #1 OST out of everything is everything is beautiful in this drama.

This show is split into 3 sections (chronological): Immortal Realm(immature characters), Mortal Realm, Immoral Realm(matured characters)

The characters really develop as you watch this drama all throughout as they start out as young and immature to logical and mature as the characters go through many conflicts through the story which changes them emotionally.
