The title of this drama is wrong it should be “The Evil Father and the Unloved Child.”
The story is extremely messy and doesn’t make any sense. I’m honestly surprised at myself for even watching this drama. The characters are very strange. I can’t blame the actors, though — they must have worked hard to follow the script.
Wangquan Fu Gui — is he a god, or just very foolish? Why didn’t he hate his father until the end, or at least hate the world for treating him so badly? His father only saw him as a tool that needed to be sharpened, placing him in terrible situations and punishing him harshly. Even though in the end he tried to show a little kindness (if he truly were a good father, he would have fought against the people who wanted to kill his son. Why did he claim he wanted to save the world, yet allowed his own people to torture the only family he had — the one who should have been his whole world)?
Qing Tong / “12580” — I feel quite sorry for the female lead, because she feels more like a side character, the kind who stays a loyal servant until the end but is never truly valued. She has a brother who craves attention (honestly, they should’ve made this character female, because many people find this pairing questionable). She should have tried to make the person she likes and her brother get along, but I never saw that happen. In the end, she chose the one she liked. I thought there would be a very emotional scene about this, because in the beginning her brother was shown to be very important to her — but when he died, she didn’t seem very sad, which was actually quite absurd.
Quan Ru Mu was fairly normal since he fell in love with his savior, especially since she was beautiful.
Long Wei Yun is a tragic character, but I was really confused by how shallow his hatred for Quan Jing Ting was. He had the chance to kill him but only managed to slightly injure him. He should have at least cut off his dragon arm. He was portrayed as very weak, even though he was a real dragon, yet Wangquan Fu Gui — who was only possessed by a dragon — was portrayed as stronger than an actual one.
Fan Yun Fei and Li Xue Yang were the best characters.
As for the villain, Quan Jing Ting, he was incredibly lucky. I almost thought he was the main character because of the amount of plot armor he had. Everyone pitied him just because he was Ru Mu’s father, and no one killed him until the very end.
This is the first time I’ve seen a drama where all the fathers are the same. I genuinely feel sorry for the three main male characters for having such terrible fathers
