I love this drama very much. I only had one hiccup and that was trying to understand the last 3 episodes. I had watched them like 4 times to get what the story writers were doing. I finally did. I hope that whoever watches understands the ending as well. The acting and the romance were livid. Zheng Ye Cheng who played Fu Jiu Yun did excellent with this character. I want to see more of him. Zhao Lu Si who played Zhao Lu Si Di Ji/Qin Chuan, I just love this actress, she is just incredible with her acting skills. Every time I see her perform in a drama, she works hard to turn into the character she is playing. This actress had me so emotional. This will be a rewatch for me. The fantasy and the martial art were good. The two main leads had me not so focused on the fantasy world which I love but my focus was on the story this time. I thank all the supporting actors and actresses as I always do because they also worked hard. The visuals were also good. Do not skip episodes are you will find yourself going back to watch them and understand what happened.

I love how they brought the awareness of Autism to a drama. People need to know there are 3 Levels of Autism. I believe she had Level 2. Reading the reviews of Park Eun Bin and how she had to learn about Autism, she did an excellent job. Kang Tae Oh, wow, this actor made everything in my heart go ah in how his character wanted to spend his life. I was overcome by it. Kudos to the screenwriters for that part of the story. Thanking all of the actors and actresses who did a great job, How you dressed Park Eun Bin for this part had me asking "why?" That was my only critical opinion. I am anxious to see the 2nd part. Thank you to the great teamwork.

This had a pretty good storyline so thank you, writers, producers, and directors. Ahn Bo Hyun was great in this, I have checked most of the movies to watch and I need to jump on it. As a military prosecutor, I would hate to meet that character in a courtroom. I love the main lead actress, who played a dual part. Her martial art whether acting or real. I loved how she moved. She was awesome. I don't really get off watching any dramas or movies with military content. It's not that I hate the military, but I hate war and I know that men and women will die during the war. R.I.P. to those who have died during the Ukraine War. Thanking the team of this drama for their work.

This story had me going crazy but it was good. Have tissues handy because you will drop some tears. I loved the storyline because it was a little different than most. Ma Tian Yu played the Emperor and his task was very complicated but had a passion to be the Emperor. Excellent acting! Wan Qian who played the Empress, wow, she took charge! A lot of revenge and avenging had me breathing hard. A lot of blood spilled from the first episode to almost the last episode. The ending will leave you in awe! DO NOT skip any episodes or you will ruin it for yourself. I know it is long but just think of it as a vacation. lol.

Wow this had no Romance!

The storyline was very well done. I'm impressed that this had two main male Chinese actors. I was also impressed that I finally got to see a Chinese drama without romance or competition of female leads for the male lead or vice versa. I love art, the producers were perfect with how their direction regarding sketches, drawings, and what made me very happy is that they showed face blindness having autism. Thank you for bringing attention to autism disorders. Tan Jian Ci who played Shen Yi was excellent with his acting displaying a sketch artist and oil paintings. Very handsome actor. Jin Shi Jia who played Du Cheng, for a minute I thought he was a real detective/police. JSJ was very believable. I thank all the actors/actresses in the characters that they played to make the storyline more believable. This is a rewatch for me!

The awesome visuals!

Zhang Ruo Yun, you did great in this drama. Thank you! You had me cheering for you all the way to the last episode. You were so believable in the character you played. I wished there were more episodes to see you bring back your brother and sisters plus Jiang Ni played by Teresa Li, she was awesome but I have to talk about the strong women in this drama. The lady in white is what I want to call her, 2nd sister, and the little crazy one Miss Hee Hee these characters and the actress who played them were just awesomely good. The child actor named Finn Han Zhao Xuan Su toward the end, I mean everything that he did was on point, I mean the tricks and his acting (dual character) was on point as well. This kid is only 12 years old! The martial arts, fantasy, man I wish I was born in that kind of life if it could be real. I loved those scenes. The visuals, OMG, I don't know how the producers came up with all of the actors/actresses flying in the air from here, there, and there but it was so tremendously good. The buildings... wow... I was so impressed. The soundtrack had me glued to the TV! Thank you to the writers of this drama, the Sword Snow Stride team (staff) who made it all happen.

Why did Allen Ren and Bai Liu pick this script!

Allen Ren is one of my favorite actors and Bai Liu is one of my favorite actresses. I don't have the slightest idea why the screenwriters wrote this the way they wrote this. I loved how the storyline started but I sense something was wrong when I got to Episode #16. From that point on, it just went downhill for me. I have never rated a Chinese Drama that featured Allen Ren or Bai Liu low., two top leading performers in the same drama that I became disappointed and embarrassed to view but I did and I'm sorry that I did. In the very last episode, the writers tried to clean it up but only for the last few minutes of it. I gave the actors/actresses a 10 rating because they did their best and were excellent in their parts. I will never watch another drama that makes the bad guys win. Kudos go to Allen Ren and Bai Liu for enduring a drama like this.

I apologized to the rest of the actors for my rough critique.

Wow! I love William Chan in the first place. I feel he is so different from other actors that I have watched and is in my top 5 favorites. It's been a while that I viewed Chan in a drama series. I know he likes humor and his vocals are the best. This type of storyline is perfect for him. I love when he plays a storyline that dramatic, detective-ish, daring, and lots of fighting and romance. His co-main lead Actress Maggie Zhou, I had to grow to like her acting as the drama progressed but in the end, she did excellently great. The storyline was very intriguing, interesting, and I loved it. I loved the martial arts and I'm so glad that the directors, producers, and writers added that women can be just as good. Like I said in other reviews, I love scenes that have powerful women who can fight as well as dance. Thanks to all who made this story come alive. There is one little itch... that was at the ending. It all ended too quickly.

This storyline was different and impeccable from other fantasies. I mean a tree and a human??? AND then there is GROOT! I'm just kidding.

Sally Jing who played Si Teng / Bai Ying did incredibly.
Vin Zhang who played Qin Fang, just 'unbelievable'! What a great actor he has become. He is one of my favorites that's for sure.

The fantasy and the visuals were on point. I couldn't find fault with any of it. The music kept my heart pumping and focused. This is the type of drama you can skip over episodes or you will be going back. The ending has its twist and turns that I threw my shoe at the TV. Nope! I'm not telling y'all the ending.

The one thing about this drama is that you will have to stay focused on every minute of these episodes. If you don't you will be lost and confused like I was at first. I still have to go back and watch Episodes 1-3. I finally caught on with the 4th episode. This was truly a drama but traumatic. If you don't like those types of dramas then I doubt you will like it. When I finally caught on to the storyline it does become a mystery of who did what and when. The writers did great on this storyline. The music was played over and over which was bothersome for me. Otherwise, I loved it!

Kim Hee Sun who played Yoon Tae Yi | Park Sun Young did very well and was very believable in her character.

Joo Won who played Park Jin Gyum was very good at making this character his own, I'm glad he kept up with his storyline!

Kwak Shi Yang who played Yoo Min Hyuk I really loved the way performed the baby daddy. The only thing there was one part that I laughed at when he ran. That's how focused I was on this character. I think the director messed up.

Anyway, enjoy it as I did.

100% Awesome!

This was the longest KDrama Series that I watched. This was the first time that I didn't get bored in the middle of the drama and skipped to the last two episodes then go back to episodes that I skip. It had me focused all the way from the first episode through to the last episode. Suzy Bae you just made my Top 10 Female Actresses. Thank you, Suzy Bae and Lee Jong Suk for making this story interesting, exciting, romantic, emotional, and a lot of drama. Lee Jong Suk, wow just wow, everything you did in this KDrama performance made this very convincing, being humorous (which I loved the most), you are a star! LJS has them eyes with long lashes that shine bright too. *Love them eyeZ* The Romance chemistry was there between Suzy Bae and Lee Jong Suk... "Awesome".

When I give a 10 rating, it means that the storyline wouldn't have worked without all the cast, directors, producers, screenwriters (what a storyline, loved it) visual, wardrobe and etc. *bowing 3x's to everyone with much respect*!

Cute! Very well done!

I love the two female main leads. Gypsy Keerati Mahapreukpong who plays Khaopun, she did her thing, I believed that she was a ghost that's how great she was in this 16 episode series. Had me crying at the end. Then you have Noona Nuengtida Sophon who plays Jiew had me laughing with her energy in her character. Both main leads couldn't have pulled this off without the other. Pae Arak Amornsupasiri who played Artit, he made laugh as well, Jiew and Artit just thinking about the two of them I'm laughing. The minimal visual effects of the medium are awesome. The going into and out of the body was great with two main female leads. Overall, the visuals were perfect and not overly done. The handsome Nat Sakdatorn who plays Muadprin was believable in his character. He got them eyes I love! The rest of the cast, well, this storyline needed them as well. I loved the storyline but glad it wasn't 70 episodes. Thank you Writers! Thank you to the Oh My Ghost Team!

I really did like this drama. The only thing I have a problem with it is that they removed Kim JiSoo from his contract. The change of actors was very dramatic for me. KJS is not as tall as Na In Woo nor was he compatible with Kim So Hyun. I felt more chemistry with KJS with KSH. It's not that Na In Woo didn't play the character badly because he was good in it. NIW just overpowered KSH. I did love the ending not paying attention to who played who. I hated the fact that Lee Ji Hoon was killed off towards the end. I'm not the one who wrote the story. I guess all dramas don't have happy endings for the almost main leads who are support actors! The visuals were good, loved the martial art fighting. I will give the writer kudos and give it a 9 rating.

NOTE: Before you ask, I do know about the bullying of Kim JiSoo. That was many years ago and he apologized for it in writing, he didn't bully anyone since then and he didn't bully anyone in his acting career. I feel that he shouldn't have been removed from this KDrama. There was no proof of sexual harassment or assault, that was unfounded. I am a victim of bullying when I was in the Public School System.

2nd NOTE: Today on Sept 12, 2022, an article was written that Kim Ji Soo has disappeared from the public and that he may be doing military time. That all the accusations against Kim Ji Soo were false and the perpetrator admitted his accusations were made up. All other perpetrators followed the main perpetrator and their statements were false as well. Their maliciousness made Kim Ji Soo's life miserable and with this truth coming to light that he finds peace. I hope that the netizens would stop making further unnecessary comments about Kim Ji Soo. He didn't have to apologize for something he didn't do, but I am pretty sure that his lawyers told him that this would be best to calm the anger. In the Holy Word, it does say to apologize even when it is not your fault. I hope this is a learning lesson for those who want to fabricate about another person but it won't.

I love everything that Yang Zi and Xiao Zhan do in their acting career. The storyline was a perfect medical doctor and common girl romance. I can't say there was a competition between two women. Xiao Zhan's character knew what he wanted! I love when Yang Zi plays a character that is perky, that is just her! I loved the storyline. It is hard to lose someone you love to cancer. Been there and done that! I am so glad they didn't show the death of that character. The world is in a sad place already. There were no martial arts but that's okay this time. The actors/actresses who played the parents were astounding. All of the rest of the supporting actors/actresses played their parts well to tell this beautiful love story. I loved the visuals and there is one thing that I noticed... at the end I mean the very end where Xiao Zhan, Yang Zi's character was walking with their son, I remember my first Chinese Drama "Ashes of Love" the ending scene were similar. I will go back to watch that again for the 20th time.
