Bound by Sin (2025)

Bound by Sin... Can you say sexy

This could have been a perfect 10, had the writer completed the story. The plot was a surprise that I did not know I needed. They pack what started off as a hot story into just 20 episodes that had me wanting to know what was going to happen next until the end. The (FL) was alluring, sexy, wealthy, smart, shrewd, and dominating. BUT, I personally, the ML my favorite, he was sexy and definitely eye candy, I kept thinking oh my he is gorgeous. Can you say GQ, meets sexy villain.

The costumes were great and looked like something that would have come from that era, but they lacked imagination to complete the story. ( I know I said this more than once) They gave us character growth, and undeniable chemistry but what they could have done better was the ending. The story was not original, we have all seen this format before, but what they did do right is choose leads who really fit the roles. I did not like the open ending, considering you gave me almost everything I needed and then just snatched it away.

Did the writers get bored or just really did not know what to do to make what could have been a epic story complete. I still want to know what is next, did they get all they hoped for or was there yet again another challenge. If you are not going to offer me a part 2 at least complete the story so I can walk away satisfied completely ( pun intended). Overall, I enjoyed the show and would say its worth the watch, Just be open to the fact the ending is what you make of it.

-OST of "Bound by Sin".
***
This drama had a dark melancholic feeling to it, a unexpected love-story carved inside threats of war. The soldier Fu Cheng is a man who strngly holds onto his principles and morals. Steadfast, devoted and fierce in his duty, the seductive and quite cynical heiress Ying Xian wants to break his will while hiring him as her bodyguard. She wants to see him lose the control he so carefully and stubbornly holds, but alas, they are fated. Instead of the passion she offers, he asks for her commitment in love. He loved her madly, but still refused to be a doormat for her to stomp on. That astounds her but made her respect him even more. They are a remarkable pair, both deadly in their own right and i am glad this drama was brought to my attention.
