Worth watching for the fight scenes, costumes and supporting roles/ characters
The story is pretty standard: Good but predictable. Both ML and FL are great actors and their chemistry gave me a fluffy kinda feel. The ending is predictable too ya...I enjoyed watching the second leads and supporting casts more than the ML and FL. I was rooting for all of them to have happy endings, even the villain best buddy (just because he is good looking, haha). But... you will have to watch to know what happened.
Special mentions:
The Emperor of Jinxiu, played by Qin Tian Yu. His initial over-the-top reactions seemed overdone at first, til one realizes why he is like that. His micro-expressions and acting were on-point. His chemistry with Princess of Susha was a slow burn. Was so rooting for them!
Xia Jing Shi's character was the hardest to decipher. Chen He Yi played it well. Not sure if it was his good looks and puppy eyes... just can't seem to hate him until.... argh!
So, overall, good to watch during the holidays.

One of the nice surprises this year from Korea
Binge-watched this.... just the right level of everything. Nothing too weird or cringe or sexual or excessively violent ( for Korean drama standards, anyway). At one point, just wished he actually said yes to the unstable idiot, Soohyun.... but i think the ending is really satisfying and leaves a nice sweet and warm feel.The psychotic episodes may cause some viewers to feel uncomfortable or disturbed. So, please be aware and close your eyes...
Short drama to quench your BL thirst. hahah!
