Really good story with amazing cast & PERFECT PACING!
This drama flows through the 30 episode. No filler scenes, no extra crying scenes, no annoying/non-relevent subplot. Every scene serve a purpose and this is really rare in today cdrama. You will be left wanting for more after each episode!
Story.
A long forgotten castaway daughter returns to a family with a good reputation but rotting from inside out. Everyone have their own agenda and greed. Everyone is a pawn to one another. Everyone wants to save their own ass.
The perfect female centric revenge story. One that's rooted at the heart of the family. Nothing hurts more than a loved one betrayal. Especially one from the supposed rock of the family. The trauma and sickening emotions the story highlight resonate well.
Cast
Amazing cast. Chen Du Ling shines brightest with her portrayal of Zhuang Han Yan. The cold stares with a million mystery. The murderous intent once she knew her father bloodly murder her mother in cold blood. To her realization that she had fallen for her husband and the moment she knew he was dying. A range of emotions portrayed to perfection by her. Bravo!
Xi Yun Lai character is the kind of stoic, family first, kill first ask questions later. He potray him quite well. He nail the part of vice minister very well. Because his character is the sick, dying from poison slowly with worries for his family type, his emotion range is limited.
Supporting cast are AMAZING! Wen Zheng Rong as Ruan Xi Wen is chef kiss! Everytime she is on screen, you will forget everyone else. Her presence and aura command attentions. Her death made me sob so hard! The rest of the cast are also great. The father is one of the most despicable, hated, cunning, b@stard character ever. Yu En Tai portrayal is fantastic. Step mum and step sister potrayal is also very good. I am so glad this two didn’t die at the end. And also a bright future for little A Zhi child actress. Made my heart goes awww everytime with her cute and smart words.
Romance took a step back in this drama. In its place, a mature and mutually understanding love between two very similar yet different person took place.
All in all, a very good revenge drama. Perfect for those looking to adventure together with Zhuang Han Yan across the sea of betrayal, long lost love ones and ultimately find her home in the end.
