A Wonderful Surprise!

I'd never heard of this show when I stumbled across it. Totally worth the watch! You have to pay attention as it is twisted and wrapped around like crazy. The music fits well, the acting is good, and the story line is so wild. A unique and engrossing series! I don't know why no one else has reviewed it, but I hope more give it a chance.

A solid watch

Wasn't that great. The plot was all over the place and there was little coherence to the overall themes. But for a short series, it's impressive enough and the actors are talented, the story is compelling despite being frustrating at times (like at one point it just felt like we are told han dao & yan shiyi are smart but they just sum everything up as "everybody's a suspect" which is just not very smart also overall the writing could've been better). BUT the reason I've rated this 7 and not 6. Is because of the happy ending 😭 like this so refreshing. SO REFRESHING. In all the cdramas I've watched, if two girls or two boys have queer subtext, then they're doomed to die, kill each other, or suffer immeasurably or have a very ambiguous ending. Sure, in Blades amid Blossoms MANY people die but at the very least the sismance + bromance survive. Which is shocking. Verily so.
