I don't like Amnesia trope, especially those which drag the drama so long.So, please do tell me if the amnesia…
I think in this case the amnesia trope will be bearable. The drama starts with time setting 3 years later when they already don't remember each other. Like strangers but they still destined to meet. So their past would be told in flashbacks, I guess.
The synopsis is confusing. Here's a more understandable synopsis from Baidu: Three years ago, Li Yiyue, the new female constable of the Six Doors, went to the northwest to investigate a case. By chance, she met Tong Ling, a young immortal cultivator who traveled around the world and did good deeds. The two went hand in hand to defend against the enemy. In the process, feelings gradually arise. As the mastermind behind the scenes emerged, no one expected that someone would stop the two at the last moment and set up a vicious plan to turn them against each other. The originally affectionate young lovers became a pair of enemies. Fortunately, Tong Ling's master Yue Lao took action in time to save their lives. In order to give them a chance to make a comeback, he secretly erased their memories...
Is this really a remake?! As far as I know it's just another manga adaptation. I don't know why everybody think…
I already mentioned in the Introduction section that GMMTV made an adaptation from the manga, not a remake from other countries' manga adaptations, although Director O watched some drama adaptations to get inspirations.
I don't read the manga, so you tell me why you think it becomes a popular adaptation?
Synopsis according to Douban: During the Republic of China, Feng Xiao (played by Cheng Yufeng), the adopted son of a wealthy businessman, and Lin Wanxiu (played by Liu Meiqi), the adopted daughter of a warlord, were married, but they were their own masters in troubled times. They loved each other deeply but had to face each other and conceal their identities as assassins. As the conflict between the wealthy businessman and the warlord deepened, the two were forced to face a life-or-death situation in which a husband and wife fell in love and killed each other. However, their love for each other finally resolved the misunderstanding, allowing the two to get back together and join forces to smash a conspiracy to sell national treasures. In a shocking conspiracy, they became a pair of assassins who made evil people fearful.
When Cai Yi shows up, I kept thinking the actress looks familiar... then I found out I watched her in Please Be My Family and Fairyland Lovers, lol. She looks different in costume drama!
you can watch it on dramanice.la but there is no english subtitle
