Couldn’t Make It Past Episode One
Despite the negative reviews, I gave Guardians of the Dafeng a try out of sheer drama drought—but ended up dropping it within minutes of episode one. The opening feels forced and unnatural, lacking the charm or coherence needed to hook viewers in.
Having seen Dylan Wang in three previous dramas, I find his acting consistently underwhelming. He tends to bring the same cocky, off-screen energy into every role, which makes his characters feel one-dimensional. This drama is no exception. His performance here continues the trend—flat, unconvincing, and difficult to watch.
Sometimes a show just doesn’t work from the very start. This was one of those times.
