Qi Mi (2024)

Neither plot not acting delivered in good potential

The plot follows a young woman (FL) who agrees to marry an army commander (ML) in exchange for the protection her family desperately needs during the chaotic pre-republic era. Their marriage begins with zero expectations ... the commander already has two concubines, courtesy of his mother who has a hobby of collecting concubines for her son. To make things worse, the ML holds a grudge against the FL’s father, so he spends the early episodes throwing petty accusations at her. Nonetheless he succumbs pretty quickly and falls in love with her. Hence begin their trials as a couple...

Honestly, the plot had a lot more potential, than what reflected on the screen, but the execution just didn’t deliver.

The cast didn’t help either. This is the first time I genuinely felt disappointed with Jian Qi. His artificial tears especially in scenes that didn’t even need crying, were painfully awkward. But he still shines through as the FL opposite to him was straight up horrible ...Yes, she is cute, but acting-wise… babe, even babies in diaper commercials show more emotion. She can speak straight dialogue, but the moment she needs real expressions, everything collapses. Her crying scenes 👎 , and her action scenes ....scream 'cringe'(just look at the way she holds a gun) ...


I honestly can't recommend this drama to anyone cause it's not worthwhile.
