If you want detailed analysis of the story setting, genre and character sketch, the analysis by oddsare is a must…
i copied this from below comment . its more easy to understand the point of view . as below :
While Fan Xiao did many wrongs, I still cannot hate on him (unlike many comments on X). First, we must keep in mind we are not watching a comedy-romance or light drama such as Revenged Love and Desire. This is a dark romance story, so it is obvious that our main lead is twisted and dark. This is a story of a God (Buddha) and the Devil. The devil thinks he can mess with God and play games and be disobedient. He does not bow. But little does he know that the mighty God is capable of keeping him in line. Not only he can not rise above God, but he also needs his mercy for redemption. Second, with all he did, his love for Shulang is true (do not forget that toxic love is still a form of love). He lied to himself above all, and he will pay for it. He wants to receive, keep, and control love in the wrong way, as it's in his nature to turn all heavenly things to hell. But this is a story about how a devil can finally find his way back to heaven,
With a family like that who needs enemies? I am honestly not understanding the stepmother's motives. Her position…
i understand the stepmother's motives . i also have a stepmother and she made my sister and my brother droved out from house at the age of 17 and 18 . we're siblings really doesnt know the reason why our father did that to us . as we growing up we might think that may be its a "monopoly behaviour" , may be she wants all the attention goes to her own child .
Watching this doesn't quite excite me (unlike when i was watched Lost You Forever , The Legend Of Shenli & A Journey…
ya me too , its really boring like there is no development story . the story is predictable . i feel sorry for Simon Gong , he has a likeable face and his character in this drama is quite good .
Yang Mi is not good actress . she has no "the aura" like Zhao Liying . her voice sounds like uneasy to hear it . as an actress , she should change the way she talk or sound , i mean depends on the character she is rolling . in this drama , even when she shouted , it feels like the sound is echoing in my ear . im still watching this drama because of the story itself , not Yang Mi or Qin Hao .
