One of the best C-dramas of the year
First of all, this is the very first review I’ve ever written. I’ve been waiting for this drama for a entire year!
Honestly, this C-drama has it all: romance, a bit of comedy... I truly believe it will be one of the best dramas of 2026, if not the best, though I know there are many more coming.
Zhang Linghe, what a man! He is stunning; I was left breathless in every single episode. His role as the Marquis Wu'an suited him perfectly—no one else could have played him.
Regarding the character, I feel like his development fell a bit short. In my opinion, I wanted to see more of the "formidable" Marquis, but I didn't quite get that, even though I still loved him.
The villains deserve a major award, especially Qi Min and Yuanqing. Those siblings were insane! Deng Kai and Lin Muran did an incredible job.
I absolutely loved Changyu and how strong she is. I adored it whenever she told the Marquis she would support him by killing pigs; simply amazing. Tian Xiwei was incredible.
And the OST is incredible, 10/10
The Ending: 9/10. Why?
Because there are so many unanswered questions. What happened to Gongsun and the eldest princess? In the end, Changyu and Xie Zheng had two children—it would have been lovely to see them all together. I know it’s an adaptation and won't be exactly like the novel, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It was amazing!
