Tian Shou Le, Ta Lao Gong Er Zi Shi Feng Huang (2025)

Funsies Fantasy

I watch this because i was on the Sun Qian Xun mood.

Plot is about ML, after having a child, is only allowed five years to live, needing the child's heart's blood to prolong his life. Due to a serious illness, he needs his son's heart's blood as a medicine to prolong his life, which puts him in a dilemma between morality and family responsibility, and also causes conflict with FL. ML's father is a blue phoenix, ML is a red phoenix, and ML is a golden phoenix.

The CGI in this drama is decent for short drama. I love banter between Sun Qianxun and Zhang Yuntao but for romantic couple they lack the chemistry for that.

This drama is worth to watch.

Laugh out loud, intergeneration and wholesome are the words I choose to describe this drama

I found this drama on YouTube almost 3 weeks ago and did a buddy watch with MDL user Fae. I never laughed so much before. I think this is the vertical drama with the most comedic moments I have ever stumbled upon. I literally mean by chance because I wouldn't have watched it if the first scene didn't have CGI.

What I liked:
1. Comedy - The writing was good. A lot of physical comedy but does not annoy me. Sarcasm was spot on.
2. Acting - I have seen comments about Sun Qian Xun being excellent in comedy (this was my first drama of hers) but Zhang Yun Tao doing comedy, that I never expect and he did well.
3. Supporting characters - The grandson had an important role in this drama. The kid actor was excellent in his role & was adorable too. Lu Shi Bai is great supporting character. I like how his character was wrapped up.
4. Dynamics - ML-ML's grandpa interactions were entertaining. Rude but respectful if that makes sense. I also enjoyed the interactions between the grandson and ML's grandpa. So wholesome.
5. Styling - Fashion wise I love how ML was styled especially the magenta tinge on his bangs & his outfits once he crossed over to the other side of that magical mirror.

What I disliked:
1. Addressing mother - Why does FL's son call the mum "Hwa Jie" (Flower sister) instead of "Mama"? At times I bought it i.e. think of FL as sister instead of mother to the kid.
2. Romance - Romance could be done better. There was a lot of push in their relationship than pull. I would like more affectionate gesture like peck on cheek, hugging, kissing.
3. Dynamic - I wish there were more father-son bonding on screen. I think this drama could have more emotional connection if ML refused to harm or sacrifice the boy because he wants his son to live well.

Favourite scene
The first time a full moon appeared that affected the three generations of phoenixes.
