Grateful that supporting characters exists
It wasn't bad actually, it's just that when you don't like the main characters, you can't really enjoy a drama.
- ML : pretty much dislike him, because he didn't fit with the setting. Everyone was smart, cunning, manipulative and we have the ML who is not matching with the vibe with his naive and selfless character. I just hated the way he was behaving the FL trusting her at 100%, he didn't get angry about her manipulating him even once ? And the other thing I LOATHED about him is that as the head of the clan he should've made it his priority but instead he preferred romancing with the enemy. At some point, I didn't even know why he wanted to pass the 3 trials honestly.
At the end he redeemed himself a little and I feel like he had a development in his character but for me it wasn't enough to erased my bad feeling about him;
- FL : not much to say about her, she felt blank like a side character and not a MC, I'm just indifferent to her, I didn't like her nor did I disliked her. Her fighting scenes were great though.
(Unpopular opinion but I prefer Yu Shuxin with a more bubbly character & with her high pitch voice than this type of character)
- SFL & SML : SHOW STEALER, I swear they were the only one reason I finished this drama. The chemistry, their tension, the bath scene ? I was just so OBSESSED with them, I want to see this couple as main character in an other drama.
Shangguan Qian was amazing but I feel like we didn't see her fight enough, would've loved a lengthier fight scene with Shangjue.
Shangjue was everything the Gong clan needed as a leader but I guess he wasn't that ambitious, I was a little disappointed but it was coherent with his personality.
Conclusion : it wasn't my tea but if we have a S2 I'll watch it since I'm curious about a lot of things (and I want to see the baby 🥹)
