Romance in complicated life of rich people
This is the first work for DGZxCFT cp that I watch. Honestly this drama is so good.So much schemes, conflicts, fighting, even steamy scenes are perfectly done. Foe the first quarter I nearly got irritates by Lin Xintong (Chen Fang Tong), but how she act is really realistic. She is so cute that I believe she is still go to school. Anyways.
Dai Gao Zheng is SERVED. How come I'm not fall for him OMG? Even his gesture or micro expression really scream 'Im Qin Moyan, the scheming-fallen young master, and the strong and skillful bodyguard'. In my language he is the definition of 'Pesona Pria Matang' or 'The Charm of a Mature Man'.
The music really match the mood of this drama. The song was already got in to my playlist.
If you want to watch drama about scheming, or tycoon strugles to maintain their money, even the hot romance, nice kisser, and the charm of a mature man, you can watch this drama.

Enjoyable but DING YUXI ARE THE BEST
Once I heard about this drama, I decided to wait until I had enough time to marathon for Ding Yuxi.Story,
It's not bad yet it's not sophisticated enough to make me cannot skip any scene. Maybe just me but I feel like I'm watching several dramas with not really detailed stories. But I can enjoy it until the end without thinking about dropping the drama. Sometimes I feel like they could do better, sometimes I feel enough. This drama could do better in some parts. But yeah, nothing is perfect.
Some things that annoyed me when I watched this drama were some scenes shaking till I got dizzy, little scenes where their CGI was horrible, and the annoying lighting that was too bright and not necessary.
Acting,
Shout out to Ding Yuxi for his acting, I know him from The Romance of Tiger and Rose and I know this guy really has good facial expressions that make his acting more natural. He can deliver both the Dominering God of War, The Second Prince of the Qilin Clan, and even Xiang Yun's cuteness behavior when they got their body switched. Don't forget when he becomes a cat demon, HE IS SO ADORABLE THERE.
As for Yang Chaoyue, I haven't watched her dramas before. For this drama, she is good but she could do a better job in some scenes. Her acting here was okay and enjoyable, but she could do better next time,
Some of the cast did a great job in their roles, but some are just so-so.
Music,
IT IS PERFECT, I love all of their OST. Faye, Liu Yuning, until Huxia, I can enjoy all of them. I can say that all of the songs really suit the plot and the drama itself.
I will rewatch it if I miss Ding Yuxi as God of War Chu Kong, The Second Prince of Qilin Clan. But now I can say that there are other good Xianxia dramas than this.

Fortunately I have Met Such a Dear Friend in this Life
A cup of wine in the spring breezeA night of rain in the martial world, ten years of lamplight
I was drawn by countless short from Xiaohongshu or even Youtube. And now I'm dwelling in this last episode for almost 2 hours. My Jiang Hu My A Yu T,T T,T
Story,
I never found such a clean and engaging story from any mini drama. Many said that the story resembles that one drama from Gong Yu, with red robe and flute, but I'm not watching that drama yet so I don't have any comments.
The story itself is like creepes cake, the more layers it has, the more delicious it is served. And I said what I said, this is the most beautiful story that I watched from many mini dramas before. I don't even know that I will love bromance mini drama as hard as in the common long drama.
Moreover, this type of beautiful-yet-tragic drama was my whole core of living.
I know Chinese bromance especially ancient costume drama is always legendary, but now I'm totally whipped. Director, and all of the production team who took part in this, please take my gratitude and live a happy and healthy life!
Acting,
I know Yan Zi Xian and Min Xing Han before, they played many short dramas and other dramas as their cast as supporting characters. I watched most of their work and I know they will do a great job. But to play bromance together? THIS IS THE PAIR THAT I DIDN'T KNOW I NEEDED!
怎么办？我爱上你们了。。。
I fell so deep in love with them T,T what should I do? I feel like watching it one time is not enough.
These two, really can act!
Every single detail of their action was so precise. From the big to the smallest detail, they didn't miss a thing.
Even each character from support, side, or guest do their best to be served. Especially that Little Cutie Pie Rong'Er. Acting director, YOU DID SO WELL!
Songs,
The background soundtrack does justice to every single scene. They are well placed even when the songs are not much. Such a beautiful song for beautiful work!
Rewatch Value and Overall,
Overall, this is the best beautiful-yet-tragic bromance mini drama I've ever watched. I will watch it again in the near future. Now after I write this, I want to dive on the internet to find Yan Zi Xian and Min Xing Han crumbs. I crave for their interaction. I hope they will do second, third, fourth, and more collaborations together in the future!

I like Moon, but Moon doesn't know
I was mezmerized by Zhou Ye's look when the first poster released. And Im satisfied.This is the first drama of Cheng Lei that I watched. Actually I didn't know how was his acting before, but I heard people praise him a lot nowadays so I give him a shot. And of course I decided to watch this because of My Love Zhou Ye is here.
Story,
To be honest, the story it self are good enough for me. Even though there are lot of predictable plot, but it goes well and smooth from the start till end. I don't find any scenes or episodes that made me wanna skip. All of them are perfect.
Meanwhile the ending feels like it a little but rushed and forced. But actually overall are pretty good.
Acting and Cast,
My Love Zhou Ye as He Yan are SLAAYYEEEDDD. As a masked legendary general, newly soldier, a young master, a newly-wed-wife, and even an outstandingly-beautiful-yet-capable general. I know she always served. The charisma, the playfullnes, even in her most ugly scene are like He Yan it self coming out of the novel.
Cheng Lei surprisingly catch my eyes just because his skill of acting. Honestly I judge the ML just based on my imagination. Even he a little different with my head version of Xiao Jue, but he proved his acting skill. At least I feel his sincerity as a whole Xiao Jue as a young marshal, a student, a son, a lil brother, and as a lover.
Bai Shu as one of villains are not in my wishlist. OMG He actually can act, even though I found it hard to hate his sweet face , but I feel annoyed when he appeared in this drama.
I spot some actor that I watched before as Zhang Miao Yi, Handong, Zhang Kang Le, and even Wu Hao, the one that I watched in short chinese drama.
All of them are do really good job.
Music,
I always said this, if Zhou Shen singing to your drama then your drama will become a hit. And there is Curley Gao thay slayed in every songs. Then your drama are perfect.
Overall, this drama is such a nice drama to watched. And of course I will rewatch it later.

Such a Beautiful Tragedy
The very first Dai Gao Zheng's drama which I watch, and my reunion to meet Guan Yue and Hu Yi Yao. I'm satisfied.Story,
The plot serve the various type of relationship. the very first we can watch the violence-obsesive-yet- yearning plot between ML and FL played by Dai Gao Zheng and Hu Yi Yao.Then we can watch the heart-warming father-daughter from FL (He An Ran), yet contrats by the Godfather-son relationship from ML (Helian Zheng/He Zheng).
We also can witness the beautiful-yet-ended-in-tragedy brotherhood between Helian Zheng and Mo Yu Tang (played by Guan Yue). And the loyal-and faithfull relationship between A-Tang and his maid, Rong Yin (played by Zhao Xing Hui).
Honestly, republican dramas are not my cup of tea. But foe some reason, I decided to watch this as I read the name of the Lead. Thank God, my midnight whimp to watch this drama actually worth. Such a nice story from the fight scene till emotional scene.
Its simple yet intriguing story.
Some people find this kind of story is nonsense or immoral. But I think I got different impression. At least I can enjoyed the story from the start until finished.
But for some scenes maybe triggering for some people.
Acting/Casting,
I watched Guan Yue and Hu Yi Yao drama before, and I enjoyed their acting. But this is my first Dai Gao Zheng's drama.
I got a lot expectation for all of the lead. especially Dai Gao Zheng. Because I heard a lot of CDrama fans praised him for his skill as an actor. And this drama proved it.
Such an experience to watch his acting. Even I cannot take my eyes from him. The eyes, thw gesture, the little expression, even a little part of him such as his hair or his attire compliment his demeanor as a great general beautifully.
Now Im in love with him, what should I do? T,T
As for Guan Yue, he's amazed me by his Mo Yu Tang. He is perfectly made for this character. Thank you for the casting team to find such an amazing actor to play a morally grey yet beautiful character like A-Tang.
Hu Yi Yao even don give me such awe impression, she's already good at potraying He An Ran Character. She radiates an elegant-heart warming-kind of lady from aristocrate family.
Music,
For me their muaic is good but not good enough to made and impression for me. But I agree that the soundtrack placed-wise and matches perfectly with the scene.
Rewatch and Overall Review,
It is such a good drama. Some scenes maybe triggering for some people, so please be wise or at least read the sinopsis or the tags before you decides to watch it.

Life is not just for Love...
I decided to tune in to this drama thanks to Yang Zi and Tan Jianci. But in the end, I found another gem on C-Drama land.I love Yang Zi from Ashes of Love and The Destiny of White Snake. Her Xianxia drama never disappointed me, so I watched it. Another reason that I finally made up my mind to finish this drama even though season two has not been announced yet is because of Tan Jianci.
I know Tan Jianci because Winner is King, I watched this drama because I want to get to know him more.
This is the first time I watched his acting. I know her work as a singer, idol, and also at a variety show. Surprisingly I found another hidden gem actor.
Story,
With no expectations, I started watching it because of those two actors above. Then I realized this is my favorite kind of story. As a sad-torture-beautiful-story enjoyer, This drama made me suffer in a positive way.
My brain enjoyed any hidden meaning and details that they put in the story. For the production team, thank you for your hard work to produce such a masterpiece.
I love how the story made my heart crumble and cured and broken and happy and then broke down again. They successfully made me cry like a baby in one minute but then laughed out loud the next moment.
Acting,
Yang Zi is undoubtedly legendary. In AOL The character that she played was portrayed well in every drama. But in this drama, I feel that perfect is not enough to describe her effort to bring Xiao Yao and Wen Xiaoliu to life.
And Tan Jianci, OMG I'M IN SHOCK. How come I never knew that there was an actor who has detailed micro-expressions that can hypnotize so much audience? He is truly amazing as a nine-head demon cold general Xiang Liu and flirty-warm-sweet playboy Fangfeng Bei.
I can't really say anything about his acting skills. But I can possibly say that Tan Jianci is one of my top list favorite Chinese actors.
Besides that, I have a soft spot for a white-haired man.
The other that caught my attention is Cang Xuan's Zhang Wanyi. I feel like He is born to Cang Xuan's Character. When I looked at him I just wanted to bow and give my best greeting as a commoner. He really nailed it!
Deng Wei does a great job too. He shows us dedication as an actor. Even though I didn't really like Tushan Jing's Character, Deng Wei really knew how to portray this nine-tailed fox perfectly.
I knew him from TTEOTM and he is amazing there. And he doesn't disappoint me in this too.
Wang Hongyi and Dai Luwa did a great job too. But for the minor character for me is just okay.
Music,
Each character's theme song is really beautiful. All of them are really matched for the character and the story. I want to bow and give respect to the music department for this masterpiece. As YaoLiu team, I can't get enough of Favor Mortal Fireworks (Yang Zi & Tan Jianci), Long Lovesickness (Yisa Yu), and (The Waiting That Can't Be Waited For (Tan Jianci). They sit on my everyday playlist now. These three songs never failed to make me can't move on from Xiao Yao and Xiang Liu.
In the end, this is the most beautiful yet tragic story that sits on my top one favorite Drama. This is not just an ordinary god-demon or evil-good story.
There is something in it that made it touch our hearts when we decided to watch it. I can say watching it is just like diving into the sea. There are so many beautiful things that we can enjoy.
I definitely rewatched it till they announced season two of the drama.
And one thing, I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF XIANG LIU AND FANGFENG BEI.
Thank you.

I Must Win!
This is the drama that made me love Cheng Yi's acting talent.Firstly, I'm afraid of being disappointed and unsatisfied with the acting and the story. But fortunately, this drama is one of my favorite dramas!
Story,
I enjoyed the unpredictable and complicated plot, but it's hard to find a drama that suits my taste. I like the story that is not easy to predict and it made you give attention to detail, so you don't miss out on any clues for the ending. This is one of the best of the best based on my liking. Even though there are some points that not really clear, but I'm satisfied enough.
Acting,
Cheng Yi and Zhang Yu Xi really have a great job of portraying each of their characters. They have good chemistry and succeed to make me sucked into this drama. And also standing applause for Micky He, Han Dong, and the other artists. All of them really bring the character alive.
Music,
There is nothing that makes me unsatisfied. Thank you to the music department staff that prepared all of the beautiful songs. Without you guys, this drama wouldn't end as beautiful as this.
Overall I really enjoyed each of the episodes. This is the second time I watched this, now I'm confident enough to give full point for the drama. If you enjoy the complicated yet beautiful story. I really recommend you to watch this.

Zhang Chen Xiao, Sickly Beautiful
Found it somewhere at streaming platfrom, feels like craving for tears, watched it, and I FALL IN LOVE WITH ZHANG CHEN XIAO!!Story,
You don't know how much I worship the sickly-depressed-dying-male lead. And I love this.
Writer team, thank you for the light-hearted yet sickly beautiful story like this. Every tearjerking story, always started by fluffy-bright opening. Even though some people find the last episode was forced or kinda weird, but I actually satisfied for the ending. This is the best ending that can satisfied me.
There are still some weird or didn't match the vibe scene that I found, but I think overall its enjoyable.
Acting,
All of the actor do their best at this drama, even the child actor (Ni Shang and Yu Youyi) act so natural. This is the first time I watched Kang Ning's drama, When she cried, I can't help to accompany her in agony. Even the action part was perfect.
AND OF COURSE ZHANG CHEN XIAO BABY IM IN LOVE!!! How he potrayed Shen Yi Fan was SOOOO MUUCCCHH MY TYPE!! HOW COME SICKLY MAN CAN BE THIS BEAUTIFULLY PERFECT?? I'm biased but I enjoyed hus character the most. Then followed by Kang Ning, Liu Hao Yu, Wang Ze Xuan, and Sun Ying Hao.
Music, Overall, Rewatch Value,
I did'nt find any problem for music. I liked them all.
And overall I can say that I decided to watch this drama was right. I'm satisfied!

Nostalgic!
I remember reading the novel when I was in junior high school and I'm really into it. One of the most memorable novels I've read. The story was just perfect, with no other complicated background and ending.Song Joongki really did a great job to portray a wild werewolf boy that has a warm heart and sincerity. It's more than a romance story.
Park Boyoung, her acting always had a way to make me cry a river. Her 'Sun Yi' was just perfect.
When I read the novel at night, I remember going to school with swollen eyes in the morning.
One of the things that I won't regret in my life was deciding to borrow this novel from my school library and decided to watch the movie.

Nice Story but Lot of Misunderstanding
This is my very first review on this page. And I'd like to write after I finished it.I decided to watch this because a lot of people said this is a great drama and has some similarities to other Wuxia.
For 59 episodes, I started enjoying the story after 30. There is too much misunderstanding that made me exhausted. Some characters that I hope will be better as time goes on, just do not match my expectation.
I watched Cheng Yi from The Dream of Chang'an, and I really like how he portrayed the character. And he really did a great job for this drama. I adore his character, but the FL, I'm sorry.
The FL made me suffocate just because of her behavior for the first round of stories. You don't know how happy I am when she knows the truth. Crystal Yuan does a good job as FL, but I'm not really getting the God of War vibe from her, although she wears the armor or has a fierce hairstyle.
Other characters that catch my eyes are Liu Xue Yi, Bai Shu, and Fu Fang Jun. They really fulfill my expectation for their character.
The music is just so-so for me,. Some are good, but some just sound not to my taste.
The Story was good, but for me, the continuous misunderstanding parts are made me exhausted.
Overall I like this drama, but for now, I don't feel like I'm gonna watch it again. But it's still worth watching if you want to watch it. I fall in love with Cheng Yi and can't wait to watch his upcoming drama.

Love, Family, Loyalty, Scheme, and Li Yun Rui
Li Yun Rui made me watch this drama because of his white-grey hair. And this kind of hairstyle is never gone wrong.Story,
I love how the director potrayed every predicted conflcts so perfectly. Even I questioning my prediction even when I was right. The story is written perfectly beautiful.
Every aspect of the story came out so well described, I can say that this is one of drama that became my favorite eventhough I don't really like the genre. In this intense drama, I can still fell light-hearted and laugh in their comedy.
Acting,
I love how Meng Zi Yi executed her role as Dou Zhou yet it is different than her usual role. But she nailed it as independent and talented women trapped by circumtances form by tradition.
And Li Yun Rui, OMG I know he is skilled actoe but I don't expected he will played Song Mo so perfect even I can't compelare him to another actor. As this Song Mo was only written for him to play. White-grey haired Li Yun Rui are entered my top list male character.
All of the actor do really a good job. I cannot complaint.
Music,
All of the soundtrack sounds beautiful and compliment the drama so much.
Rewatch Value and Overal Rate,
I thank you all of the crew who have a finger in the pie. This drama will not ended as beautiful as this if there are not for your hardwork. I really love this drama that I planned fo rewatch again sometime later.

The most beautiful drama that I have ever watched!
Watched it by accident, but in the end, I really hooked by this drama. The drama is really give an impact on me as a human, daughter, and sister. No family has no problems. What makes it different is how we as a family dealt with it together.Story. I don't have any word that can describe this drama except Wonderful! I really thank the screenwriter and all of the staff that made the beautiful story for us. This is one of the most satisfying storylines that I ever watched. You guys own my respect.
Cast. All of the characters are played by the perfect actors with the perfect skill. Especially Tan Songyun, Song Weilong, and Zhang Xincheng, your chemistry is really something. Thank you for making the characters in this drama alive. Also, I wanna bow to the other characters that really did a great job in their own role. Without you guys, the story would never be this well-executed.
Music. Thank you to the music department that gave us beautiful and perfect soundtracks. Without your hard work, the audience will not get the meaning that the story wants to deliver. All of the songs never missed the moment! They are so beautiful.
I can't find anything that made me disappointed with this drama. I definitely will rewatch this drama in the future. If you like family and have deep meaning-kind-of-drama, I can guarantee you will never regret watching this drama.

Simple but Legendary Life of The Extraordinary Queen
As Li Hongyi's fans, I waited for this drama for so long. This drama really gives me a different feeling. For the first time, I really enjoyed it without too much thinking.Story. Even though there are some scenes that cut harshly, but this is one of the dramas that are light-hearted and simple. I can enjoy each of the episodes without worrying to miss something important. It's unfortunate that some scenes are missing and affect the entire plot. But I really enjoyed the drama without thinking too much and feel the none sensed scene was really entertaining. Sometimes comedy comes from something none sensed. The romance is simple yet beautiful for the main lead or the other characters.
But the story can be more enjoyable if there is a wise adjustment to the scenes that are missing for some reasons.
Cast. Li Hongyi and Lamu Yangzi really outcome my expectation of each character. I watched this drama for Li Hongyi but I didn't expect Lamu Yangzi or Jackie Lie really catch my attention. Both of them executed the character really well as a Queen and King that extraordinary. Bai Shu as Yu Changya gives a strong impression on me too. Also, Wang Dong as Liu Xie is a unique character in the whole drama.
Music. I really like all of the songs, there is no soundtrack that sounds weird to my ears. The song is placed in the most suitable way for the drama. Especially, when Hongyi and Jackie sing together, they melt my heart.
I recommend watching this drama when you want to just laugh at silly things and don't want to think too much. Even though this is not the best.

No Injustice in This World
Im here basically for my baby Ao Rui Peng, but I got lot of surprises as long I watched the drama. This is my best summer drama that I ever watched this year, and here is why,Story,
OMG this is so engaging! Even of the genre isn't my cup of tea,but I ended up watched it in just 2 days. Such an accomplishment!
Each of the case lit up my curiosity, the headless bride case is an epic opening, Qin's third branch was despicable, eldest senior master's case was love turn into evil, the trope and general's case and the heavenly something sect's case was embodiment of when finally take action because authorities are corrupt, And all of the case arrangement are so good. Even the grand case of the evil deeds of the emperor and the 3rd prince was perfectly executed.
After all of this shit happens, the end of the evil was the most perfect ending I've ever watched in drama.
Acting and Cast,
How come the casting director can hire such an incredible actors for each case? This is the most perfect cast I ever watched, like you know the casting team pour all of their effort to bring each character come to life. Like each od fhe actor got their time to shine and acting skill so perfectly.
Ao Rui Peng, my baby, you did a great job! Li Landi also the other actors really amazed me with their skill.
And I was so surprised by appearance of familiar faces from short drama artist like Liu Run Ming, Zheng Feng, and even Hu Yi Yao, they are SHINE.
Thank you for all of the cast and the casting team that made me enjoyed the show very much!
Music and BGM,
Such an amazing song that matched the drama perfectly sang by my love Zhou Shen and Curley Gao! And the BGM placement was so good.
Overall I enjoyed this drama as I enjoy watching Under The Skin. This two was my only favorite crime drama. Thank you for all of the pre-production, actors, and post production teams. Its worth my subscription's money!
