This is the best bromance drama ever and thus is coming from someone who doesn’t like bromance . If you read the book or know something happened between then they you can see the love between them it so cute that you forgot this is a bromance . Oh and the cute story of lan yuan and how he is pretty much the kid of them. But it is sad when everyone started to hate on Wei Ying but the only one that was always there for him is lan wang ji and his sister but sadly she passed away ?.But seriously if you’re someone you is begging in bl drama but want something for beginners this is the one for you. You will love the cemetery is so beautiful

THE BEST CHINESE DRAMA I'VE WATCHED EVER!
This is my first chinese drama and probably the first drama that I've dedicatedly and devotedly watched. I'm so glad it's on netflix. It introduced alot of new things to me and broke down barriers. I laughed and cried at certain moments and I also fell in love with the actors and how the drama was made craftfully with their best. Even tho it doesn't have a huge budget that doesn't lessen the quality of the drama. The actors, directors and all the staff of cql did a very great job despite of censorship under their noses. I'VE COME TO APPRECIATE CHINESE CULTURE MORE AND MORE IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CULTURE. 💖💖💖Was this review helpful to you?
I personally expecting a little more with the storyline after all the raving, but having said that still solid 8-9/10 story with absolutely amazing chemistry and acting between the actors. I can totally relate why xiao zhan become famous overnight with this one. His character WWX is so loveable that "IF" the storyline was bad, i would probably still watch it for the sake of him hahaha.
This is definitely a yes!! Must watch!!

Very worthy drama to watch
At first episode, I really have no clue at all. It seemed I cannot enjoy the story because it was confusing. Still, I re-watch episode 1, considering this drama gain high scores from most review platforms. Still didn't have strong feeling. I continued to episode 2, and starting get the idea. Episode 3 and so on, I really get myself into this series.I read the review from original novel, which is originally contains boy loving story. But in the series, adjusted to friendship. I really can say this is a brilliant idea, so most audience can enjoy the story without controversial issues, and passed from censorship as well.
I love the actors/actresses portrayed their roles. Especially Wei Wuxian, reminds me Jiang Xiao Yu of Handsome Siblings (I watched Handsome Siblings first, before The Untamed) who has resourceful, cheerful, and talented character.
Again, I'm falling in love with Meng ZiYi. She really got into the role. One of the reason I watch The Untamed is because of her. She really did it in Legend of Two Sisters in Chaos.
Love the music, either opening, ending, and music score. This series treated music skill specially. The music score made the scenes even more emotional.
Now I plan to watch The Untamed Special Edition.

I freaking LOVED it!!!
Unexpectedly the actors were awesome, the casting of the actors are amazing!!! The cast had very good chemistry!Recommend people to watch it, though I sped up x2 ><
The pacing was good enough that I was not bored until ep 27. But it was only for 1/2 ep that I was bored, then the storyline was back on track again.
This story really makes me think that although the villain is bad, they are not that bad. Likewise, the protagonist is not all that good (though everything he does was with good intentions).
What is RIGHT and what is WRONG? There will always be gray areas whereby we will always stumble into... Rumours are the true killers. But who started the rumours? Who spread the rumours? Who continued the rumours? We are actually all killers, saying without thinking and killing without feeling remorse...
Although this show might seem happy go lucky all the time, the underlying core of the show really made me think a lot:)

WANGXIAN INVENTED LOVE!
This is hands down one of the best shows I’ve ever watched. Despite the censorship, the actors did an incredible job accurately portraying their characters and the relationship. In fact, I’d even say this was gayer than some of the “gay” shows I’ve watched before lmao. I once read somewhere that “the characters shouldn’t have to kiss in order for you to realize they like each other” and this show is the perfect example of how two characters can be so in love without having kissed each other. Wangxian invented pining, invented being soulmates, invented LOVEI know they’re officially married with a confirmed son (sizhui) in the book and I do love the donghua, but cql is still my favorite version. Seriously, the acting, storyline, pacing, visual effects & production, characters... amazing. I love it so so much!

good drama
I remember I first tried watching this and had no clue what it was based on so the plot was very confusing to me. But as with most dramas, after the first two episodes, I was hooked and had every day to look forward to when binging it. A very good fix.I love the leads and the story has something for everyone. The ost also feels very emotional when hearing it after finishing it. Although, the ending was a bit disjointed and I'd rec looking for an explanation on youtube as that's what I had to do. But other than that, it was great. At one point I thought I'd never be able to move on from it, that's how attached I was to the storyline. Also, some people have said the first half before it "resumes" where it left off at the start is boring, but I disagree. The backstory was absolutely essential for the present and would've been so nonsensical if they had jumped back in first without showing us.

I never enjoyed a drama after I watched Ashes of Love, which makes me rewatch it again and again. I can't move on for months, I even told myself, maybe nothing can really beat Ashes of Love. But when The untamed was finished airing, it became extremely popular that's why I tried watching it. I've finished it 7 months ago but I still can't move on. I've been watching it for the 5th?6th time? I am not sure. I've lost count. Just like how I felt when I finished AOL, I am now stucked in The Untamed. I tried to look for other high-rated dramas but I always ended up rewatching it. I watched the other dramas of XZ, listen to his songs while I watched all of Yibo's dance?
I fell inlove with all of them specially the 2 main leads. I even watch the Mo dao Zu Shi(donghua version) and I read the original novel, Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation. I have never thought I would fall inlove in BL stories?
Xiao Zhan is gorgeous and Wang Yibo is talented!!! My gallery is flooded with their photos. All of them, even the actors who played minor roles!
Xiao Zhan is now my favorite actor and singer! While Wang Yibo is my favorite dancer!

Story: The story is pretty much the same as the novel and the manga which was suprising for me since most novel dramas always get changed up at most parts. Of course the bl aspect is not their but like I said they show it (like Lan Zhan waiting for Wei Ying to return after he died, they way they look at each other and so on). The only huge change from the novel/manga/anime was that in the drama Wei Ying personally knows Xingchen which isn't the case in the anime. In the anime lan zhan is telling him the story about him.
Acting/Cast: The Cast is brilliant every actor did such a good job but honestly I was so happy to see Wang Yibo here (I was such a big UNIQ trash) and his acting was top-tier. He didn't had as much lines as Xiao Zhan (the untamend behind the scenes) the character development was huge from a cold Lan sect kid who follows only the rules of his clan to someone who is only on Wei Yings side to protect him and uncover the truth.
Music: God the music is everything I even downloaded all of the osts but we all agree that the WangXian is the best ost ever I cried so much everytime the song played... Also Xiaos & Yibos solo songs are so good no need to say much the music is a masterpiece itself. Yibo's song is still my favorite you can feel how hurt he is for waiting for his love to return to him.
Rewatch value: Excuse me? Of course y'all can't believe how sad I was when I watched the last episode and realized that this is the end. I will rewatch this more than once.
Overall: Honestly a masterpiece. You have to watch it.
