A brilliant drama with horrible subtitles
Through no fault of the production company, iQIYI machine-translated the subtitles. The result is that, among other things, the pronouns "i, you, he she, they" are all mixed up :-(Despite all that is lost in translation, I bingr-watched it in 2 days. This drama is worth discovering because of the actors, the storyline and the general atmosphere. The low budget was a godsend here: the production couldn't indulge in easy, spectacular moneyshots. They focussed on the story & the characters.
If you're looking for "Gone with the Wind" in ancient China, this is not it. But if you're willing to discover one of the best bromance stories (coupled with a brain-twister to understand what the subtitles really mean) Go for it!
