The Untamed

There are certain stories that you read or watch and then immediately want to tell all your friends about it because it is so special that you want everyone to experience it. That is what The Untamed is, it is a story that features so much emotion and becomes its own entity the moment you begin watching. I watched the series a few months after it aired after seeing several posts about it and finally having the opportunity to sit down and watch. The story took a few episodes to really capture me but once it did, I was hooked. My family members are not fans of the genre but even they were captivated by the story.
This is a love story no matter how much it wasn't supposed to be viewed that way. Love is the most important theme in the story and it isn't necessarily just romantic love but familial. I recommend this story to anyone who wants an all consuming show.

A Masterpiece of love and emotions

Such a wonderful and mindblowing series...Best Chinese drama, I have ever seen??...
I would even say it as a masterpiece...It's totally worth...
I can watch this again and again without any hesitation...

Wei Ying and Lan Zhan are the apples of my eyes...Extraordinary performance and the chemistry between them is so beautiful and serene that they are truly made for each other...Can't take my eyes off them whenever they are on-screen...They are just awesome...I can praise these two for doing such a fantabulous job...I ship them madly...They are like real soulmates...Calm, compassionate and caring nature of Lan Zhan along with the notorious, lively and enthusiastic Wei Ying carry the show with great performances and their love for each other transcends everything...
Darlings Xiao Zhan & Wang Yibo have been beyond perfect for the lead roles...They became my sweethearts...

This series made me cry, laugh; filled me with love...It has every emotion packed in such a wonderful manner...
Throughout the series, various emotions have flooded me...
Couldn't control my emotions...Such an awesome lot...

Every cast member has portrayed their characters beautifully...
The story is a perfect blend of bromance, love, trust, family, friendship, comedy, mystery, horror...

Music is one of the greatest advantages of the series...Such soul-soothing and mesmerizing tracks...Those tracks justs fill the heart with nice emotions...

The only disappointment is there has been no public display of romantic elements between Wei Ying and Lan Zhan...
Yet the love between the leads has been beautifully portrayed...Couldn't ask for more due to gov restrictions...

Thank you so much, makers and the cast for such an amazing series...
Special thanks to the author of the original novel...
Hats off for such a lovely masterpiece...

I just finished watching and honestly, I feel empty. I started watching this show because my friend forced me to, and only got into it around episode 10, but after that I was hooked. It makes no sense in the beginning, but you kinda have to go along with it, then later rewatch the first episodes and everything will seem way better. I really loved this show, complicated plot and all. Honestly I was quite disappointed that there was no confession, so we have no real proof that they ended up together, but, there were cute scenes that will make you squeal. Now after finishing it I don't know what to do because there really is nothing quite like it. Just like when it ends your heart will be ripped out as you wish for more.. TT

Btw I'm buying a flute bcs of this... ( a black one with a red tassel that says Yiling Patriarch to be more exact).

The Untamed was my first Chinese drama and even my first Asian drama. Since I finish watching The Untamed has been 5 months and I am starting it again all over. It was an amazing drama and you should definitely watch it.

I was first introduced to this drama by my Chinese friend. I'm more of a Korean drama person, but I decided to check it out. Though, I was only a few minutes into it before I instantly grew bored and dropped it. But at the beginning of 2020, I was reminded of it again, and I had nothing else to watch, so I tried to give The Untamed another go. I'm so thankful that I did. I was so hooked on the drama that I finished all fifty episodes in just a week and watched around ten episodes everyday. I fell in love with Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji and they meant the world to me. When Wei Ying died, I couldn't stop sobbing for twenty minutes after his death, and I even cried myself to sleep that night. I rewatched multiple scenes from the drama over and over, and I cried every time I rewatched Wei Ying's death scene. When I finished the drama, I realized I couldn't move on from it, so I rewatched it all over again. When I finished it again, I just had to rewatch for a third time. This was one of my all-time favourites.

This drama is worth watching. I already finished watching the drama long ago but i feel like i need to let you guys know how good it is (for those who are planning to watch and also those who
currently watching).

I came here to write the review right after watching the drama 'Legend of fei' in which Wang Yibo plays the male lead. It's so crazy how he is full of expressions and is funny in that drama whereas in the untamed he appears cold and yet caring. So it clearly shows that he is a good actor.

Xiao zhan is also a great actor. The way he portrays the fun and crazy side of wei wuxian is incredible. I was so engrossed in the drama that i couldn't even sleep at night. Every episode is refreshing, there are new plots and i always enjoy the fights. Even more, when Lan zhan supports wei ying in the fight.

It's the third time I'm re watching it and i can't get enough! I hope i see them both in a drama working together and teasing each other behind the scene. We viewers are waiting for it!

The story was good for the most park and keep the feel of the story from the novel and other works but I wished it would have focused more on the actual BL relationship and not just a bromance. I came from the manga adaptation of the novel and was expecting a similar story and I got that with just less of the Bl aspects of it. It gives all of the regular basic that you were expecting and is a good show to watch if you like the Franchise. The acting was very good and so was the production and music of it. I recommend if you just want to watch the story and a bromance.

Incredible story with fire music and pour acting, but you will get used to it!!!

First of all, it´s one of my favorite Dramas. I already have watched it four times. Since it´s was released back in 2019 it does not need another review. I woult like to ad something nonetheless.

The story is incredible! I did not read the book but I know it´s a BL adaptation. It´s got quite the fanbase. I watched it because of the recomendations and fell in love with it. I must say that even if you don´t know the source material, you can fall in love with it! And I personaly don´t mind, that it lacks any of the BL stuff, because of cencorship! In fact, I think it´s better of without it. You can feel the love between the two ML despite it!

Story: There is -1 Minuspoint for some plotholes, and -1 for the mess in the beginning. The drama did not need a timeswitch, even if it´s in the book source, wich I don´t know of. It woult have been better with a linear storyline. 8/10
Acting/Cast: There are some problems with the directing and major problems with excessive chinese overacting. So I have to deduct here more points! But you will get used to it, and if you make it till the middle of the drama, you don´t mind anymore. Xiao Zhan is one of the best actors here. Without him, the drama woult not been successful! But I must say, I´m not a fan of his acting in generall. In other drama´s he left me with a bad impression. I´m honestly surprissed, but I guess he´s just a better actor than the rest. The worst actors in major roles were Wang Zhuo Cheng (Jiang Cheng), Wang Hao Xuan (Xue Yang) and Zhu Zan Jin (Meng Yao). Zhu Zan Jin did remind me sometimes of the Terminator, and I had to hold my laughter when I saw his robotic movements! 6/10
Music: It´s one of the best composition for a CDrama I heard so far. 10/10
Rewatch Value: for me 10/10 ... love the story!

~MASTERPIECE~

I finished this back in August but it still stands as one of the most beautiful and greatest dramas to ever be created! I finished all 50 episodes within 5 days.

This drama captured my heart and it still hasn't let it leave. Even months after finishing it, I still think about it. I still think about Lan Zhan and Wei Ying and the story that follows those two. This drama had everything. Drama, comedy, romance, action, martial arts, mystery, and fantasy.

Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo did a fanatisc job portraying their characters. Those made Wei Ying and Lan Zhan come alive. Of course, every actor did a fantastic job as well. The production job did amazing too! I can't get past this drama. It will be in my heart forever.

Overall: 10/10 in all aspects.

One of the best dramas I have ever watched. The actors are so good and it's hard to believe that they are "new actors". With just one glance they express so much emotion and it's better than 1000 words.

Really recommend watching it! It is very touching, sad and funny. You get to see the characters develop and change throughout the story which is very satisfying to watch. Very few dramas make an impact on me and this one definetly did and many scenes were so touching that I could not hold my tears back and I will definitely re-watch this. I had put this drama on hold for quite a while but finally decided to watch it and it was the best decision in my life. I cried, I laughed and I learned a lot.
