It was disappointment for me :((

This is my first time writing review in MDL.
I actually don’t really use it, but I was really disappointed so I wanted to write mini ,,review’’ I’m not comparing couse thoose dramas are too differently, but I actually liked much more Legend of the female general over this….

Disclaimer - I dropped it around the end I just couldn’t finish it. it was like 25-29 episode

_________Let’s get in!
NO HATE — JUST OPINION

It was disappointment for me :(( The Synoptics and trailer was truly masterpieces, but what I got from the drama - not what I wanted and what I saw.

So where is the disappointment ?
For me let’s say ,,the love part’’. In Synoptics I THINKED we got Lovers - Enemies - Lovers. What I means is like: Lovers - 35% Enemies - 55% and back to lovers the last 2 - 3 episodes?
What we got lovers - 65% enemies - 10%? Lovers - 25%….
I really don’t like the ‘’Sweet romance’’ when it stays too long. It can be like in the end of the drama or just to fill the ,,politics/thrillers’’ and other things…The romance made the plot boring…Or maybe is just the plot? But there are many dramas like: till the end of the moon, melody of golden age, back from the brink whose first priority is romance, but it didn’t felt that the romance would make the plot boring, no it made the opposite it made the drama better…
what i wanna say that i really didn’t liked how half of the drama they acted ,,childish?’’

Characters

The ml is so smart, but he is so childish and unnatural at the same time. Characters felt just character…I watch c-drama couse i feel connected to characters here was just blank…I think characters weren’t ,,full’’

Okay let’s come to the plot

Plot wasn’t good, wasn’t bad…? I think it was really SLOW, I skipped a lot and didn’t missed anything…I think it was unnecessary with so much romance (which ,,for me’’ was a bit childish and cringe)….And it should be less episodes too…For me it was boring and unnecessary…..

So why I watched it? For the second couple and Cheng Lei face…

Ik I will get a lot of hate, couse this review is really strange, It’s bc I can’t write reviews my writing sucks 😭
