ugly make up, good story lost in maximizing pain by stupid script writer
The make up artist should be SACKED. Imagine giving the ML with EAR to EAR eyebrows nearly straight across the nose bridge! Is this cartoon? This is supposedly professional make up?? UGLY as HELL .The story has great potential but the real story is lost because the script writer is OBSESSED with maximizing pain ! To do that, she made the FL stupid, endangering herself at every turn and the ML is having to sacrifice himself repeatedly to the end point.
The real story is about the power play between the ML and the grand tutor Ling.The focus should be on how to defeat the culprit It's a fantastic story but instead of the fantastic story the script writer destroyed it by the determination to cause pain between the leads
The script writer obviously DISRESPECT women, (ALL the women here are thoughtless,crazy and headstrong)The men are chauvinistic -making decisions and failing to communicate with the women in the guise of "protecting"her, that's not love, that's disrespectful of women and super chauvinist
This is the calibre of this script writer !!
Book is different from drama. People who read books can cry all they like but dramas are for entertainment, therefore there's No need to adhere to the book to maximise pain. Tear jerking doesn't automatically make your product "arty", in fact it's a big TURN OFF
It's stupid mistakes and pain throughout with no growth or correction of the miscommunication which is what real love should be, this is just chauvinistic ML and headstrong FL -REPEATEDLY
The actors are extremely good but the script only serves to anger and spoiled my mood
I stopped at episode 14, I had enough. And I read of the ending which proved to me that the entire purpose is just to inflict pain when the object should be to display the fantastic power play and how to defeat the culprit. Somehow the main story of the culprit is LOST in the obsession with inflicting pain
Tear jerking DON'T make it a work of art, it's just a waste of good talent and good story made to become trashy tear jerking tool
Don't waste your time . It's totally UNENJOYABLE

Excellent drama
I highly recommend this dramaIgnore the bad comments. It's extremely well presented. The story was good and it's very well edited such that there's no draggy moments
The lead actors and actresses performed really well and I feel both ML and FL have a great chemistry. Unlike many actresses who only have one dimension-same smile same stupid gaze this FL did really well despite her young age,also did Song Wei Long who express well with his eyes
I thoroughly enjoyed the drama. The script was well written and the story didn't try to be some epic-overly arty-trying too hard type drama that's draggy. This drama pitched it just right for 30episodes. Very enjoyable and I looked forward to every single episodes
Well done to the crew and the make up artist didn't slap on white paste good only for the dead. Only one negative is the song lyrics keep covering the subtitles of the conversation+-super annoying

Feel good,Nice like a music video, not much story
If you want to just feel good and enjoy the view like a beautiful music video,then this is for you. It's like a walk through a beautiful garden. The actors are excellent and the cinematography is beautiful in creating the perfect "feel" in this aspect it's really goodThe TCM is really impressive and I learned a lot from this drama. Really eye opening
The story is nothing very much and it became a bit bland by episode 19-20, I almost abandoned it because it's not going anywhere
Otherwise it's enjoyable but not much brain work type of drama designed to calm the spirit
