I'm waiting for better development in the plot.
Unfortunately, I still haven't been able to connect positively with the drama. I don't see anything different here from the usual Korean dramas of today. The political aspect is the same old greed, and the idiotic villains only change actors. Even worse, the romantic storyline—aside from the couple's chemistry—doesn't captivate me at all.Eun Nam is far from my favorite type of heroine. She's opportunistic, rich, spoiled, and has a gorgeous, devoted man at her feet, yet she's drawn to more and more money... disappointing! Where is her nobility of character?
Park Hyung Sik is a great actor, incredibly handsome and charming, but his character, Seo Dong Ju, despite being intelligent, is emotionally weak. This makes him less appealing in a role that initially seemed vengeful and determined.
I'm waiting for better development in the plot, but for now, just good fight scenes and action aren’t enough to win me over.
Such a shame—I had high hopes for this story.
So… the wait is over! The drama really wasn’t what I expected.
The first thing I felt when I finished the drama was a raw sense of uselessness. I even called myself stupid for insisting on something that hardly captivated me from the beginning.
Then, after cooling off, I thought I was being unfair to myself for disregarding my own effort — and unfair to a great actor like Park Hyung Sik.
At the very least, I felt obligated to share some thoughts about this absolutely confusing production that was *Buried Hearts*.
From the start, I felt this wasn’t a production that could accommodate a romance between the main characters, Dong Ju and EunNan. In fact, in my opinion, EunNan was one of the worst characters in the entire plot — she didn’t even deserve the title of female lead.
From beginning to end, she was bland, ambiguous, and unappealing in her decisions regarding Dong Ju. At no point did she deserve to be by his side — neither as the protagonist nor as the FL character.
The political setting had its ups and downs, but the excess of convoluted family schemes and deceptions was a total turn-off. So many manipulations, so many unresolved entanglements, so many family misunderstandings — it became exhausting.
In the end, many characters entered and exited the plot in na obsolete, meaningless, or completely underdeveloped way. Among them, the unfortunate Ji Seon-Wu, son of Gang-Cheon. I can only assume the producers lost their minds when they gave him such a stupid ending. The kind, gentle young man introduced to us at the beginning suddenly turned into a senseless monster. Saying ambition got to his head doesn’t convince me... where was the character development that justified such a change?
Other characters who entered the story with some promise but led nowhere: the unpleasant daughter Kuk Hee, the mysterious secretary Kong, Dong Ju’s psychologist and his clown-like father, the charming hacker, the president of nothing… among others.
Of course, these are just a few examples, since there were so many unnecessary characters in the drama that I can only assume they were added to fill space or justify part of the production budget.
Even the main villain, Yeon, played by the good veteran actor Heo Jun-Ho, ended up being more laughable than truly threatening. His ending would’ve been far more interesting if they had just kept him locked up in the Daesan vault for life — since his human conscience is clearly unreachable.
Park Hyung Sik was masterful, commanding in both performance and presence. He brought Dong Ju to life like no one else could. For me, his strong presence was the only thing that made the story worthwhile.
It’s not a drama I’ll carry with me. And if they ever create a second season, I’ll happily skip it with no regrets.
I’m glad it’s over — life is too short and too precious… no one should waste 16 hours and 20 minutes on this.
It’s not a drama I would recommend to anyone I care about.

I loved every ill-fated step, every stumble at the gate, every door slammed in the face.
I'm always in a dilemma about how to start writing when everything I say may seem insufficient to express the greatness of a drama. A drama whose complexity and level involves an approach that is almost impossible to edit... there are so many nuances, so many facets, so many striking points that, sometimes, all I can think of are the countless moments in which I found myself moved by its beauty. Therefore, before focusing a little on the story, I must start by saying why I chose to watch it: I love mystery, I love romance, I love criminal investigation, I love daring and I love a good production. This drama has all of this and much more than my meager review property allows. Stunning photography and immersive cinematography in every detail: from the song of a bird, the nakedness of a fruit tree, the croak of a frog, even a drop of sweat. A color palette that deviates from the traditional, but warms you from within, whether in the vibrancy conveyed by the glow of fireworks, the bright gray of sidewalks wet from the rain, or the darkness of a bath in the lake under the moonlight. An alternation that goes from black and white to multifaceted and vibrant colors silences us, on the other hand, it makes our soul scream in scenes of pain, passion and despair. A drama whose metaphors go beyond the figurative sense, being able to use a song instead of a final scene, a look instead of words, a slap instead of a kiss. A “hurt me” instead of “love me” is indeed impressive. A drama that works extremes with mastery. From faithful and touching friendship to extreme humiliation, from gratuitous companionship to irrational public ridicule. From the calm and the ride on a rudimentary boat to the cold torture of an interrogation chair. Intense script, striking dialogues and unforgettable characters give a tender light to what we see here. Zhou Luo is a unique young man. Imperfect in several layers, but full in his convictions. Mature for the age counted in years, immature in the vicissitudes of unilateral love. But bold, persecutive and insistent on his personal desires. This generates disagreements among the public accustomed to admiring a traditional hero. The boldness is above the expected average, above what is permitted, above what is considered normal... I confess, I loved it! And yes, I was saddened by how many people took it so negatively. I guess bursts of youthful passion aren't for everyone. Few understand that this is how emotional maturity is achieved. How else do you achieve fulfillment or learn to live? I loved every ill-fated step, every stumble at the gate, every door slammed in the face. Each true lie and of course the cruel and painful love achieved. I think that the emotional charge of each viewer can make a difference in the evaluation of this masterpiece... what I see differs from what others see, what I feel is far from what others feel. But, on one point, I believe it's easier to agree: Tender Light goes beyond a drama, it's a work of art! I admired the result, but I would have liked more screen time. Even if loose ends are not part of this drama, I would exchange the beautiful music at the end for a long, beautiful tight hug. I recommend it wholeheartedly! Simply exceptional!Was this review helpful to you?
Um refresco nas mesmices
Tirando alguns buracos na conclusão de cada personagem e o vilão um tanto quanto fraco, adorei acompanhar este drama.Ando tão saturada das mesmices nos dramas coreanos que senti um verdadeiro refresco com esta história.
Amei o elenco. Os protas foram divinos. Não conhecia Wei Zhe Ming, mas me apaixonei logo de cara. Além de lindo, um ótimo ator. Vou adorar revê-lo em outro drama, aliás já estou com dois na lista para assistir. Sol Qian também foi maravilhosa. Ótima performance e ótima química com Wei.
Além dos protas o elenco de apoio também foi legal. Em especial meu lindo Bai Shu. Muito fofo em tudo que faz.
Vi inúmeras reclamações sobre enrolação e queda no interesse nos últimos episódios. Confesso que curti cada momento e vou sentir saudades. Se tivesse mais jogos seria ainda melhor, mas a parte humana da história foi muito relevante e muito me encantou.
Parabéns China! Muito boa produção!

Self-Sacrifice Left a Bitter Taste
I often say that I enjoy dramas as much as I enjoy reading reviews about them. There’s nothing like different opinions to broaden our perspective.
Unfortunately, this time, I found myself in a painful dilemma. The discrepancies and divergences in opinions about *Moonlight Mystique* among viewers, instead of providing direction, often left me feeling unbalanced.
To put it another way, the drama was either deeply loved or intensely hated. Balanced or middle-ground opinions were rare.
Even though I watched the drama sequentially—pausing others I was following—I place myself in the smaller group, meaning the middle ground.
Starting with the episode openings, I agree that there was poor direction in the editing of the scenes. Impactful moments, accompanied by captions, ended up spoiling the element of surprise in many episodes.
Another major flaw in the editing was the use of the same OST in intense scenes. Although it was a pleasant piece of music, it became tiresome due to its excessive repetition in nearly all the scenes—and worse, in every single episode.
The vibrant color palette that bothered some of my peers was not unpleasant to my eyes. The deep green, the vivid red, and the striking purple and lilac captivated me. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the three main clans. Both the Ye clan, from Lady Xing Yue, and the Demon Lord, Jing Yuan, as well as Yin, from Lord Mo Li, were dull, extremely tacky, seemingly low-budget, and lacking in quality.
On the other hand, some clans were stunning, such as the fox clan and its love tree.
The male costumes were absolutely impeccable. The imposing garments, in exceptional colors, were always perfectly matched with the hair accessories. Rui Peng, both as Fan Yue and as Jing Yuan, looked brilliant.
The female costumes also seemed very beautiful to me, though the excessively heavy makeup left much to be desired in several aspects. Not even Bai Lu’s beauty could compensate for this oversight by the makeup artists.
The script, though heavily criticized by many, had several arcs that I enjoyed. There were emotional, delicate, and even quite controversial moments.
The deeply rooted self-sacrifice in this drama left a bitter taste for many life philosophies. There were so many deaths that, at times, I wondered whether there would be enough characters left to carry out the story’s conclusion.
Seen from another perspective, this significantly reduced the participation of strong characters whose potential could have been better utilized until the end. If there is one major flaw in this drama that I must highlight, it would be this.
Although the narrative wasn’t the best, the cast’s performance was very good. If there were flaws, repetitive and unnecessary moments—such as the countless times Fan Yue fainted and revived or was an excessively sweet and weak demon in front of Bai Shuo—we should blame the execution, not the actors.
Within the demands placed upon them, each did their part.
In the end, a classic Xianxia—romantic and quite enjoyable to follow. I recommend it to fans of the genre and suggest preparing for the collateral losses.
A good, serious drama!

Surprising? Not really. The beginning is actually very good.
A drama that promised a lot... seriously! The first episodes were remarkable.Despite the usual clichés—gender swap, a male lead from another clan, a love triangle, and more—Everlasting Longing promised a touching and interesting story, especially with actors well-loved by the audience.
So, unsurprisingly, I fell for the trap.
Surprising? Not really. The beginning is actually very good.
However, unfortunately, our protagonist, Jun Qi Luo, is the type of woman who was born to live alone.
And look, maybe her femininity was one of nature’s few mistakes. Cold, calculating, determined, with her family and nationality above any feelings of love. Angelababy was perfect for the role. Except for the lack of emotional involvement with the ever-devoted male lead, Xuan Lie. Honestly, I felt sorry for the actor/character. I understand this was a production choice, but making him a doormat for the entire drama was just bad.
Jun Qi Luo did everything she wanted. I accepted almost everything, out of love for the character. But the ending? No. The decision about the family was my breaking point—I hated it, hated it, hated it… absolutely awful!
Do you want to watch this drama? Then go ahead. I did. I don’t regret it. But I hated, with all my might, both kings (they both deserved a very different ending), Angelababy’s character, and the fates of Qi Min and the princess (they were both so cute and important to the story—despite controversial opinions, I loved them).
But if, for some reason, you give up halfway through, I’ll applaud you, because the ending is, without a doubt, the worst part.
Thirty episodes… don’t waste your time. There’s much better stuff out there… sorry!

A Wonderful World That Gives Me Chills...
I see so many positive reviews about this drama, and I wonder if there’s something seriously wrong with me...
Unfortunately, I consider this drama below average. A weak, predictable story, a poor copy of countless other Korean productions.
Seriously! I’ve seen so many similar productions that I completely lost interest.
In fact, I watched it based on a recommendation from a friend whose opinion I value a lot. She even told me the plot had a vibe similar to *First Love Hatsukoi* (2022), a Japanese drama that, ultimately, doesn’t resemble this one at all.
Teen love, rivalry between classmates leading to a later romantic development—it doesn’t go much beyond a repetitive theme for me. Without a solid story behind it or a well-structured cast, it’s not even worth trying.
It’s the same thing over and over again—a waste of time.
The only part that I partially enjoyed in these 12 episodes was the period when we followed the young cast or the younger versions of the adults.
Of course, I can’t ignore the total lack of resemblance between the younger and older versions of the characters. Whether in physical appearance, mannerisms, emotional expression, or—worst of all—the famous "chemistry," there was absolutely no common ground between them.
Ju Ji Hoon is a very talented and versatile actor, but this character was laughable. The beautiful, brave, and resilient version of young Seok Ji Won died that rainy day, crying for his beloved while sitting on the stairs on a dark night. What remained for Ju Ji Hoon 18 years later (I believe that’s how long the wait was) was a bland, insecure adult trapped by his father’s expectations and a ridiculous romantic doubt that could have been resolved with a vacation trip or an honest, face-to-face conversation. The impression I got was that instead of maturing as a man, he regressed into a weak, indecisive adult teenager.
As for the ill-fated relationship, with its long years of waiting, I can only think of it as masochism, a lack of better options, or simply having nothing better to do in life.
Jung Yu Mi, as the adult Yun Ji Won, was a poor choice. I won’t even bother commenting on her portrayal of the character’s adult version. Just think about the last episode and her wedding dress choice, with a ridiculously inappropriate veil, and you’ll get an idea of how much value her wardrobe or "persona" received throughout the show.
As for the supporting cast, I’ll abstain from commenting as well, except to highlight the worst character of all—the clown, Kong Mun Su. What a laughable role the young actor agreed to take on. I wonder if a character could be more unnecessary to a plot than this one was.
And in the end, sweet as honey, for the umpteenth time, everything works out—every grudge is forgiven, and villains and heroes leave the poorly staged set hand in hand, crying or smiling, happy as can be. Mission accomplished!
A bed of roses...
I must confess, this wonderful world depicted in the latest Korean rom-coms actually gives me chills...
I didn’t like it, and I don’t recommend it.

Uma promessa ainda engavetada
Infelizmente a trama seguiu caminhos inesperados, morosos e muito à quem do que prometeu no primeiro episódio.Já perdemos um vilão importante e um herói admirável. Zichuan Xiu está longe de atingir expectativas cativantes como protagonista. E Di Lin, cujo propósito pareceu ter sido apenas roubar as cenas desde o início, também seguiu um caminho obscuro.
Lamentei profundamente pela produção, visivelmente dedicada por um bom trabalho. Uma cinematografia muito bem elaborada, figurino bonito e , por que não, um grande elenco. Sem dúvida, muito bons.
Infelizmente a trama foi fraca, desarticulada, arrastada, com personagens centrais pouco ou nada cativantes, como a princesa Ning. Personagem cansativa.
Sigo na esperança de uma grande virada, embora muito do que pareceu ser um clímax, foi decepcionante.
Considerações finais :
Dos 24 episódios, os 4 finais foram bem melhores. O drama nos foi apresentado como história única, mesmo porquê, segundo algumas informações, o drama foi engavetado por algum tempo e, só agora, em 2024, fora liberado para exibição.
Observarmos que não houve conclusão da trama, o que sugere uma segunda temporada. Não sei se isto me agrada muito, visto considerar o tempo de tela apenas parcialmente compensatório.
Ainda considero Si Yilin meu personagem predileto, assim como, sua história com a linda princesa do norte, a mais interessante. Ambos mereciam uma história à parte, pois possuem uma química encantadora.
Di Lin, ainda que um personagem interessante, seu lado obscuro confunde o espectador , embora sua Irmandade seja admirável em relação a seus parceiros, deixa dúvidas quanto ou até onde irá sua índole ruim.
Já nosso herói destrambelhado, Zichuan Xiu, mostrou ser um bom estrategista. Continuo não apreciando o modo como seu personagem foi apresentado, assim como, seu relacionamento amoroso com a princesa Ning. Um amor pouco convincente e nada atraente. Melhor se nem existisse.
Espero que a segunda temporada não permaneça engavetada por muito tempo, já que a trama pode ser facilmente substituída. Mas, apesar dos entraves, conseguiu melhorar relativamente as primeiras considerações.

Um pouco do mesmo, porém, evolução positiva.
Este drama teve um começo promissor.Contrário a grande maioria , não me considero fã de nenhum dos protagonistas principais. Já assisti algumas produções de kim Kang Woo e o considero ótimo ator. Já o belíssimo Cha Eun Woo, assisti muito pouco de seus trabalhos. Não posso falar muito sobre o mesmo, ou sobre sua atuação, já que aqui, até o momento, não observei grandes eventos, mas sem dúvida, cai muito bem como um colírio aos olhos. Kim Nam Joo, cujos comentários nesta produção são bastante negativos, ainda que pouco conheça suas produções, aqui, em especial, estou gostando de sua atuação. O melhor personagem da história.
Infelizmente, como tem acontecido com certa frequência nas produções coreanas, a evolução da trama vem perdendo o encantamento inicial.
E, como já disse, gostei do primeiro episódio, porém, agora, na metade da trama, sinto falta do elemento surpresa o que, tristemente, leva a um desinteresse na sequência.
Tudo muito óbvio e pouco criativo. Apenas mais um pouco do mesmo. Espero, sinceramente, uma melhoria, estou farta de desistir deste tipo de história.
Comecei esta análise no sétimo episódio. Felizmente, faltando dois episódios para ser finalizado, o drama vem apresentando uma evolução bem positiva. Consegui ver bons momentos de atuação de ambos os protagonistas. Em especial, Cha Eun Woo cresceu significativamente em meu conceito inicial.
O elemento surpresa permanece inalterado. Mas a história esta sendo bem construída. Vale a pena conferir esta evolução.

wonderful
Brilliant!I didn't have high expectations. I started watching because of the actors.
It's impossible not to watch something produced by the talented and wonderful Gong Yoo and the phenomenal Seo Hyun Jin.
But wow!!! I loved it. It went way beyond my expectations.
Impeccable acting, amazing script, perfect OST, and stunning chemistry.
The entire supporting cast was wonderful... the psychopath, my goodness! Excellent performance.
I never thought I would see Gong Yoo so handsome and flawless... I was so impressed that I'm even thinking of rewatching the unforgettable Coffee Prince (2007), by the way, one of my all-time favorite dramas.
Anyway, highly recommended!

Is beautiful!
I ended up looking for the film by coincidence. I was researching the backgrounds of the actors in Antumn’s Concerto when I saw the story of Tiffany Hsu’s marriage to actor Roy Chiu, co-star of her film Man in love/2021.I was curious, since the actress had a very intense love life and her relationships were long. I got to know Roy Chiu a little and loved his cinematic history.
The film was a choice by affinity. Is beautiful!I loved! I found the performance of both protagonists exceptional. He was a spectacle in itself...it's not without reason that he received several awards for the character. Bright!
Great film, Great distraction...although, I was sad with the ending.
Anyway, very beautiful, I recommend it from the bottom of my heart...

Reflection on the eyes that oversee human justice.
I considered Ripe Town one of the most difficult and complex dramas I have ever watched.Unlike the usual revenge dramas, this one presents us with a tangled story of controversial characters, leading us to experience countless different emotions.
I was surprised throughout the development of the plot and, I confess, there were many moments when I found myself confused, with recurring doubts—even about which characters the scene was focusing on.
The historical period in which the story takes place transports us to a dark world full of nuances, whether in customs, the unscrupulous application of justice, or the ambiguous nature of most characters.
This is not a story about heroes, much less a drama that makes us sympathize with the wronged and, in turn, rally behind their vengeful cause. It is, above all, a story with raw characters—human in their essence, prone to mistakes, missteps, weaknesses, good feelings, or, in some cases, absolute cruelty.
In a story without heroes, at the very least, we must appreciate the expertise and creativity of the criminals. Every crime was meticulously crafted, and even though they occur in different time periods, they were seamlessly tied to the present moment of the avenger.
Ripe Town is a drama that captivated me with its persistence and the desire to unravel so many mysteries. The translation in the version I watched left much to be desired, perhaps due to the complexity of the period's dialogues, which, in fact, made it harder for me to fully appreciate the overall context.
Despite my difficulty in fully grasping the work as it deserves, I really enjoyed the production.
It is not a drama for everyone, but it will appeal to viewers who appreciate a good mystery and a deep reflection on the eyes that oversee human justice.
I loved it!

I’m ready for the third season.
The first thought I had when I finished watching this second season was that I should rewatch the first one. Not because I had forgotten it, but because of a deep need to revisit certain details addressed here. Not to mention that it has been such a long time... three years! Yes, three years of waiting, but a wait that was absolutely worth it.I read some reviews about the production, the change of director, writer, and so on, but I chose not to dive too deeply into them since, in the overall context, what I saw pleased me enough to overlook any shortcomings.
The criticisms about editing, development, a slow plot, or the lack of relevance of certain characters did not discourage me. Contrary to what many think, I found this season broad and especially profound in its approach to the cases. Undoubtedly faithful and wise in its casting and character development choices, especially Shen Yi.
**"Our boy has grown up!"**
Shen Yi not only elevated his art but also sharpened his mind and expanded his heart immensely. This can be clearly felt in his final dialogue with Du Cheng. Truly remarkable:
*["The two of us are like a compass. If I can draw a large circle, it's because you are the center of the circle. Wherever you go, the circle will follow... Du Cheng, do you know why I love the Beijiang branch so much? Because there will always be someone on the ground doing everything they can to pull me back whenever I want to fly beyond my limits. Without you, I could have been shattered into pieces..."]*
It’s rare to see a plot with such intense and profound dialogues. So much so that, at times, I allowed myself to rewind scenes to fully grasp the reasoning. This is an aspect that doesn’t always appeal to viewers—thinking can be exhausting—and understandably so. However, this is part of the essence of this drama. Perhaps that’s why its investigative approach to evidence is so straightforward. It’s almost comical how, with a mouse click or the press of a button, Li Han uncovers all the case and suspect details, while Rong Yue dissects a body practically in the blink of an eye.
The story alternates between cases, though some intertwine from the beginning to the final episode. The constant presence of the elusive geneticist looms until the very end.
Even though he displeases Shen Yi’s fans, I appreciated his brilliance, though his selfishness and self-deification eroded my admiration. A mad genius, but still mad—completely detrimental to what remains of our humanity.
Fang Kai Yi, Du Cheng, and Shen Yi shape the morphology of the season. Fang Kai Yi tries to bring Shen Yi back, but Du Cheng closes the circuit with all his strength. Between them, Shen Yi emerges glorious, superb, and masterful.
I enjoyed most of the cases, some lighter than others. Though not all deserve glamour, my favorite remains Feng Xiao Wen's—the Beijing Opera artist. Magnificent!
I also greatly enjoyed the story of the blind boy, the cybercafé arsonists, the mountain tour guide, and, of course, the edited embryo.
As for the rest—OST, direction, script, editing, and characters—excellent choices, excellent production.
As someone who knew how to appreciate the show said: *“I’m ready for the third season. Hopefully, it won’t take as long this time.”*
Meanwhile, I plan to rewatch the first season. The ending of this one is hard to digest.
I highly recommend it, and for those who enjoy the genre, two thumbs up!

I say check it out. It's beautiful!
I recently watched Amidst a Snowstorm of Love. Wow, complicated name in English, hahahahaha, sorry, I'm not fluent at all... Anyway, as I told a friend, besides the horror trends, I tend to fall madly in love with stories about older women and younger men. Some of this is due to the fact that men have always matured later in relationships. Prejudice? Yes may be. I call that, life experience. Whatnot.The fact is that I really liked the Snooker drama, but I loved this one. Without wanting to compare both dramas, the focus of which is beside the point at the moment,
Anyway, sorry, it's difficult not to have a minimum of comparison: Both have a sports theme, both have Leo Wu and both have FLs with great references and acting.
Nothing but you, despite being a longer and, in my opinion, more complex drama, and having been filmed in about 7 months, seems to have less recognition among the general public. Meanwhile, Amidst a Snowstorm of Love, although it had participation from other countries and was more successful, was filmed in 3 months. Both have their merits and are well worth checking out.
Nothing but you, although it has more positive points than negative points, I believe that some scenes could be edited and, therefore, reduce the viewing time. 30 episodes would be a good size, without losing its charming essence in any way.
Even though I came here for Leo Wu, I must admit that Zhou Yu Tong was brilliant. A mature, intelligent, independent, strong character and, most of the time, in control of situations. His little display of ingenuity in the final chapters, while criticized by some, was adorable.
Leo Wu, although he has already witnessed his most impressive performances, here he knew how to embody Song San Chuan masterfully. An impeccable athletic body...mercy! I can't let this observation pass 😊, beautiful, it's a fact! But his moments as a rebellious boy, stubbornness and insecurity typical of immaturity, were unique. I confess, I enjoyed each one of them.
Very good supporting cast, although they spent an extended amount of time on the younger sister and her necessary family members. I think it would have been better to have invested more in the story of the other athletes, the nutritionist friend and the coach Zhang Yan.
Anyway, if you have doubts about checking out this drama, I say check it out. It's beautiful!
I will never forget my moments with my son by my side, talking about tennis rules, nor that, in my entire life, I admired this sport so much.

Divertido
Infelizmente a Tailandia está longe de produções fortes e consistentes. Lógico, falo isto baseada neste drama. Conheço muito pouco de lá. O drama começou bem, divertido e me proporcionou boas risadas. O meio se tornou maçante e o final alem de qualquer surpresa, foi fraco. Uma pena! Senti um bom potencial nos atores, além de ser uma história agradável de assistir. Mas tudo foi tão clichê e forçado. Acredito que até para dar "selinho" é necessário maior envolvimento entre os protagonistas. No fim das contas, o que era alegre e divertido serviu para me deixar desolada e triste com a baixa qualidade da evolução e conclusão dos personagens.Was this review helpful to you?

Um drama subestimado que é um achado
Eu sempre gostei de partilhar minhas impressões sobre os dramas com os colegas. Nos últimos tempos tenho me mantido alheia. Não sei se tal relapso se deve a mim ou aos dramas ao qual estava habituada terem se tornado maçantes. Prefiro pensar que tenho feito más escolhas e, já que nunca fui boa em críticas negativas, me abstenho de comentar.Recentemente descobri kisskh e com ele, para minha grande satisfação, grandes comentaristas dos C-dramas. Foi assim que assisti esta pérola, Love in Between.
Antes de tudo, caso alguém leia este comentário, me perdoe os deslizes. Sou nova nesta comunidade e muito nova nos C-dramas.
Como já disse, não sou nada boa em críticas negativas, então prefiro começar pela parte boa.
Love in Between foi um grande achado. A história é intrigante, envolvente e nos faz seguir em frente mesmo nos momentos mais lentos. Posso dizer que até mesmo e a relativa calmaria no desenvolvimento dos personagens é gratificante.
O contexto político é bem feito e de fácil entendimento. As cenas de lutas são gloriosas e as de romance suave, porém com diálogos intensos.
Lembro que no episódio 29 Zuo Qing Ci e Su Yun Luo tem um diálogo edificante. Uma frase me marcou: “Quanto mais alto você está, mais longe você pode ver” Quanto mais você vê, mais você pode sofrer.” Referência aos heróis e o preço de ser um deles. Eu fiquei fascinada. Nunca tinha pensado sobre isso, já que, em meu horizonte de formiguinha, só posso ver há poucos passos de mim.
E a história é bem isso. Seres grandiosos que lutam por um mundo mais justo e seres iluminados que fazem de tudo para apoiar seus heróis.
Lógico, mesmo os heróis tem seus deslizes e, ainda que enxerguem muito além, são brecados quando o assunto é amor.
Zuo Qing Ci foi meu segundo personagem mais amado. Adorei sua persistência, bondade nata e caráter correto, mas desgostei de sua constante fraqueza física e emocional. Em especial em relação a Su Yun Luo. Contudo, sua inteligência foi deslumbrante.
Su Yun Luo foi uma personagem interessante. Forte no início, mas decepcionante em vários aspectos. O pior foi quando, em poucos episódios, se torna uma pessoa fraca e, num piscar de olhos, do ladrão poderoso, do qual nada se escapa, numa jovem que cai e chora a todo instante. Sua obsessão por salvar seu mestre findou pouco compensativa ou convincente, considerando a forma fácil com que o deixou quase de lado no final. Ainda que tenha sido a protagonista principal, não foi a minha escolhida de coração.
Dito isso, confesso, meu carinho maior ficou por conta do segundo e terceiro casal. A história de Shen Man Qing é Wen Si Yuan foi muito mais tocante. E ainda que curtisse cada momento do drama, me via passando uma boa parte do episódio esperando que ambos aparecessem. Foi encantador acompanhá-los em cada cena. Wen Si Yuan foi meu personagem mais querido.
Yin Chang Ge foi um personagem lindo. Justo, humano, companheiro e muito carismático. Gostei de seu relacionamento com Xie Jiang Er. Considerei doce e cativante. Embora, no meu íntimo, acredito que ela tomou uma atitude precipitada no final. Custava ter esperado pela ajuda? Triste e decepcionante escolha. Mas, independente da forma como tudo culminou, ambos eram belíssimos personagens.
Em relação a parte negativa tenho pouco a falar. Odiei o desenvolvimento que foi destinado ao personagem Zhu Yan. Tanto seu amor frustrante por Su Yun Luo, como suas conversas com seu eu maligno, foram cansativos. Custava desenvolverem sua parceria com Yin Chang Ge? Um bromance seria muito bem vindo. E nem venham me dizer que tudo foi feito para o melhor da história. Não consigo perdoar como tudo acabou tão aleatoriamente para ambos.
O desfecho foi , com certeza, o ponto mais fraco do drama. Alguns buracos me incomodaram. Poxa, eu se quer soube se o Mestre de Su Yun Luo sobreviveu!
Mas o que mais me causou frustração foi que, com um pouco mais de esforço, a trama poderia terminar bem melhor. Segundo a galera isto é quase que uma marca nos C-dramas. Sinceramente, torço que não, já que as histórias são tão compensatórias.
Enfim, um drama subestimado, porém que teve muito mais pontos positivos que negativos. Ótimo elenco, ótima história, valeu cada minuto de tempo. Recomendo de coração! E já estou com saudades, sério!
