Really? Ah thank you so much for informing me. I wanted to watch this drama . Thanks !

I made the mistake to watch this drama until the end. The first 25 episodes were very nice when Qu Yuan was a magistrate and he was solving problems and saving people together with Mo Chou. After ep 25 it became severely SAD , DISPERSING and HORRIBLE until it was over. If you wanna watch this please do yourselves a favour and watch only until ep25. After that the plot is bad , silly , ridiculous and pointlessly sad. Full of fillers , dumb politics , dumb dialogues. It should be a very nice short drama like...30ep long. The 78ep is a joke

It is but only Raw episodes. https://www.iqiyi.com/a_19rrhlb5ph.html
Most of us need English subs . That's so annoying. They should consider international fans too.

Wow amazing review. Very helpful! Thanks

Your review is 100% accurate. I just finished the drama and the only part I enjoyed was the first 28 episodes. I regret watching it until the end . After around ep30 , the couple was continually separated. I really liked the first part were he was a magistrate in the village and they were solving problems together. This drama should have ended in 30 episodes with a happy ending. They should have never drag it to 78 episodes. The last 2/3 parts of the drama were depressing, pointlessly sad , the plot was non-existent. I just wish they had ended it in 30 episodes and not continue it and make it pure mess.

Actually I just checked out this site and it has only Raw episodes. Not even a single one subbed

Hahaha best comment ever lol. Laughed so much with the comparisons. Seems so accurate !

Ah thanks I definitely will watch this one. Slow burn love stories are my favourite. Also I love Zhao Liying (from the amazing drama "Journey of Flower") and her real life husband William Feng (from the little weird drama "Ice fantasy") . Thanks for the recommendation

I don't read novels but I often hear from people that they completely change the scenario from the novels to the Drama addapattion. That's annoying, they should keep it unchanged. So in princess weiyoung the female lead was that different?! Wow in the drama she was strong as a woman but she never actually focused on revenge. In "song of glory" which is almost similar , the female lead is way more bold. A true assasin. But the truth is I disliked her a little.

Yeah exactly.....healthy relationships ! Finally a person who understands that this brainless type of female lead isn't a normal healthy person but just "Bad writting" that only teenage girls like. You referred Eternal love. It's very very good. A billion viewers have watched it worldwide and it has high score in critics.
Anyways , since you said "tsundere" I assume you watch anime ....perhaps?! xD

I was watching anime for like.....6 years and then I discovered the amazing world of Chinese/ Korean historical dramas and I fall in love with them completely because they have serious plots and tragic lovestories . The only anime I watch now is Re zero kara hajimeru seikasu by the way.
But either it's an anime or a Drama , I can't stand silly female leads (the tsundere type) who overreact to everything, are good only for being saved, act silly and are an insult for the actual women. That's why I hate the fluffy rom comedies. I prefer serious romance /historicals with actual plot. Not plot for 14 year old teenage girls. Chinese/Korean Rom-com should be better witten and not this stupid silliness

Merxat is so cool. He should get main roles more often :'(
Anyways , besides that...... , anyone knows where we can watch this with English subs ?

Wow yeah !
Li yi Tong has participated in amazing Historical dramas. She's very good at portraying every kind of emotion .
Yukee Chen in the resent "And the winner is love ". Li Qin whom can be both feminine and badass.
All those actresses you referred are amazing professionals and not goofy and over-promoted idols.

I hope so ! I believe she has potential. It's just that 90% of her dramas are rom-com. Basically I like when the dramas have some comedy elements but I can't stand too much of it.
Besides that , I consider her a good actress. I really wanna see her in a serious and dramatic role so I can judge her fairly. I watch all Dilraba's historical dramas, so I'll definitely watch "The long Ballad" and for Zhao lusi since she co-stars there. Glad to see her in a dissent role

Thanks for the recommendation . I've dropped it sadly. Actually I kind of dislike all Zhao Lusi's dramas. She is type-casted as the childish/ playful/ and silly female lead in all the fluffy rom-comedies. I'm not into those kind of dramas. I do respect the actress and her work. It's just that her dramas are not for me.... I guess.... xD
It's a matter of preference

If you're into more serious historical -romance try out the C-Dramas : Rise of the phoenixes ,
Nirvana in fire ,
Love in Between and the K-Drama The crowned clown
Those 4 demand from the viewers to have a brain in order to watch them , have amazing plot , suspense, good romance.
I'm 25 and I can no longer tolerate childish fluffy dramas written for 14yo audience with zero plot and brainless female leads who overreact lol. xD

So I'm out of good dramas

Yeah. I wrote that comment 10 months ago. At that time there was no extra ep37. But I've watched it now and yeah .... we can finally say it was kind of happy ....but it still took him many years to reunite with his family so for his wife it wasn't that happy hehe xD
Definitely better ending than ep36 though!!

Besides that, I hate this logic in Chinese/Korean Historical dramas were they keep the main couple separated for years and years ... to prove that their love is "strong" lol. Just give us a happy ending damn it , no need for a bitter -sweat finale. And there are also dramas with completely depressing and sad ending (Rise of the phoenixes for example). I'm so addicted through, I can't stop watching them even if my heart gets broken repeatedly xD

They just released a trailer and as it turns out , it's an other rom-comedy with fluffy romance.
I was expecting a more serious kind of drama and I'm kind of disappointed now( well my mistake lol). There are sooooo many rom comedy historical dramas for the first half of 2020. I was hoping that this drama would be something different but it's not. It's so sad. I was waiting for this one for more than 5 months. I already know the deal here. Weak plot that is all over the place , naive female lead that can't stand up for herself and is good only for being saved , arrogant male lead , silly brainless scenarios .
Where are the well written dramas like Eternal Love and Pillow book :'(
The only thing we get lately is LOW budget rom-com historicals

It had many romance hints though. Maybe they'll make a second who knows.

Best Crime /mistery /suspense/ romance/supernatural

Hahah I feel you !! At the beginning episodes I gave it 10/10 and later on , not even 1/10 lol. What a disappointment. I hope this one will be well written!
