I tend to avoid on going drama because I'm more into binge watching when it comes to drama. But this is the drama I decided to watch on going after Moonlite Mystique. This time I surrendered by the beautifulness of the story of Xie Zheng and Chang Yu.
Story,
Such a good and refreshing story. I loveeeeee the story so much. I never knew that pig butcher profesion could be this atractive. Even if the premise were common, the fallen noble man saved by countryside female. But I love how the writer and production team executed this premise so beautiful and engaging. You can find a lot of promising premises of story. Like hidden identity, twisted fate of royal bloodline, politic-caused-by-love intrigue, noble-common-people love story, dominating-forced love story. And thankfully the writer and the production team can capture and connect them all perfectly. I learned a lot along the story unfold. How come love story could make me reflect so much about life? The last time I feel like this is when I watched Whisper of Fate.
The thing is in the few last episodes, the story feel a bit rushed because of cdrama rule (I actually hate that). But thankfully the conflicts end in quite satisfying ending. I plan to read the novel to get a better understanding for the story and the character.
But I should say this, this is my number one drama that have such a breathtakingly beautiful visual.
Acting and Cast,
First, I decided to watched this because of Zhang Linghe and Tian Xiwei together are very beautiful. You know most of people, including me, are visual oriented person. So yeah I atracted to any beautiful person. And this drama forced me to change my habit from binge watching finished drama to grit my teeth to watch on going drama.
Zhang Linghe, I'm glad you can get this role. I could say this is your peak iconic visual in your career so far. You are doing a really good job potraying Xie-Yan-Jiuheng-Zheng. I didn't expect you can further develop your acting skill like this.
Sweety Tian Xiwei, you are doing a great job too. Pig butchering girl are so bad ass even after you become great general. You got incomparable chemistry with Zhang Linghe. You don't how much I kicked my blanket, bite my shark doll, and even screaming in silence when watching your love story.
For my surprised, I captivated by Sui brothers or Sui-Qi brothers. Deng Kai and Li Moran really got perfect score from me as well executed villain of the story. They proved 'they' are human and show that feeling are the most unreliable thing to trust in this world.
Wei Yan, my Yan Yi Kun, such a beautifully potrayed grey character. You served!
Actually each character really do a great job for their role. Even Ning Niang and Bao'er have good prospect in acting.
But the one who is hard to read her emotion are Yu Qianqian. She is good but sometimes I failed to identified what kind of emotion she shows. She is so human yet so man-made.
Music,
Thank you music director and team, because you made me mezmerised every time the bgm appear. This is the most perfect match between story, visual, and music I ever had. Such a beautiful work of art.
Overall,
Maybe it's just me, but I'm a bit emotional because this drama actually give me not only how fluffy cute and warm love story is, but also show me how fate play the unexpected turn in our life. How the reality hits hard and how we accept the fate. It is a good sign that proved the production team got really good job to deliver this work as it got impact to me.
Rewatch Value,
Actually I quite love this drama. That is why I decided to watched it even it's still on going (I bought express package only to watch this, I usually don't do this stuff). I also want to rewatch it to catch some details that I may missed.
