Love on the Turquoise Land

Don't trust the low ratings – this drama is worth seeing

I don't understand these low ratings. There are a lot of really poor dramas, but this one doesn't belong in that category.

The plot is interesting. Since I was a child, I haven't watched any scary movies — horrors or thrillers. But "Love on the Turquoise Land" — I watched it over a few nights and I enjoyed it ;) The story is mysterious, complemented by a good soundtrack and sound effects. Di xiao (Earth Owls) were scary creatures, but I could stand watching them. There are also a lot of strange characters in this drama.

There's a romance, but it doesn't eclipse the main plot, although it is easy on the eye ;) Xingxu and Dilraba were foes, but after finding out that they have the same goal, they slowly started to build a real deal, working together and later... later everything boils over into stronger feelings. And you can see a well-shaped man's body, which is very satisfying :D

IMHO, this drama is really worth seeing.

FROM ENEMIES TO LOVERS

It's not your tipical love story but it's a sifi horror tv series with twist of monstars and slight hints of costume period. The both actors did a great job specially Dilraba.

I was exited to watch this drama after watching the trailor and yes as I expected it performed well.

As for action section it was bit disappointing I thought madblade is going on a crazy rampage and kill the boss but her mom the ex-madblade stole the show 😆 let me talk about the ml BRO WAS USING A GUN IN LAST FIGHT YET HE DIDN'T GET ANY KILLS. But he saved his love by risking his life at the end

The memory loss (Amnesia) plot it was unnecessary yet it made sense

over all iam going to give a solid 9/10

THANKYOU

Chemistry Served, Mystery Delivered

First of all, Dilraba was absolute perfection in this drama. She has come such a long way, and every time I watch her, she feels more and more refined in her craft. This role really highlights the full range of her acting abilities—subtle, expressive, and confident. Huge applause as well to her stylist, because she truly slayed every look.

Chen Xing Xu feels completely in his element here. His performance is natural and convincing, with no awkward moments at all. The chemistry between the leads is undeniable and effortlessly delivered. What I appreciated most is that their romance doesn’t rely on overused clichés; instead, it unfolds gradually, built on partnership, trust, and mutual respect. And honestly—they’re incredibly cute together.

Genre-wise, this drama leans into mystery and thriller, with a borderline horror vibe that keeps things tense and engaging. On top of that, the supporting characters are genuinely lovable—you’ll definitely find yourself getting attached.

Overall, a well-balanced drama with strong performances, compelling atmosphere, and a refreshing love story.

Should u watch it?

I always admired Dilireba for trying different genres and she did it again! This drama was so out of the box and amazing.

I'm ngl but I was super sceptical for the first 3 eps cuz this isn't my type for genre but once the base was set, the story took off so well. I was obsessed and literally couldn't wait to watch the new eps.

The acting of the cast is very good and Reba and Chen Xing Xu have such an amazing chemistry. Their banters, their romance, their kisses stole my heart away.

overall I think this drama is perfect balance of romance, thrill and action and I think everyone should give it a try.

I truly enjoyed this drama, the acting was excellent, the music added depth, and the chemistry between the main couple was captivating. Dilraba brought Nie Julou to life perfectly: fierce and independent on the outside, yet tender and vulnerable within. Yan Tuo complemented her beautifully, always offering his strength, support, and protection when she needed it most. Together, they were outstanding throughout. The story, however, felt a bit uneven: slow in the middle but rushed toward the end. There were so many unanswered questions, especially about the earth fiends, Lin Xirou, Xing Shen, and the rest of the Southern Mountain Hunters team. The ending felt abrupt and left too much unresolved, which made it feel somewhat empty. I truly hope they release a second season to continue the story and give us a more complete conclusion, because ending it this quickly doesn’t do justice to the world they built. One more aspect that felt out of place was how the fiends seemed to overpower the hunters in almost every way. Their strength and abilities made the hunters look pitiful and even embarrassing at times. The fiends, having learned to live among humans, were portrayed as far more intelligent, adopting modern techniques and strategies, while the hunters remained stuck in their overly ritualized, old-fashioned methods. In a sense, it made sense that the fiends adapted quickly to human life and used modern approaches to their advantage as they were still learning about humans and gradually adopted to human's new way of life, but it also highlighted how conservative and limited the hunters appeared in comparison. While I wouldn’t call it the best drama, it’s definitely one worth re-watching.

QUICK TAKE ON LOTTL

When I think about Love on the Turquoise Land, the first thing that hits me is how layered the storyline feels. It builds this eerie atmosphere where myth and reality slowly bleed into each other. At times, the pacing drags a little, but honestly that slow burn is what makes the reveals land harder.
The acting really carries it. Dilraba as Nie Jiu Luo nails that balance of vulnerability and strength — you can feel her fear but also her stubborn courage. Chen Xingxu as Yan Tuo has this obsessive energy that makes you both root for him and worry about him. Their chemistry is what keeps the emotional core alive, even when the plot gets heavy.

Casting overall feels spot‑on. The leads fit their roles perfectly, and the supporting cast adds texture. The directing was wise in adapting to the novel. The team leaned hard into shadows and Moody atmosphere. You get the sense that every frame is meant to feel haunted, like the past is always pressing in. As a whole, the drama works because it blends myth, romance, and betrayal into something that feels both ancient and modern. It’s not perfect but the performances and the atmosphere make it memorable.
