Agree. It’s an easy watch. I love their wardrobe too!

The story has been adapted for the drama. Still, I find it quite watchable; light and uncomplicated. I’m at episode 12 and so far there’s a good story flow. First time for me watching the handsome Song Wei Long and second time for angelababy (I liked her in love 020).

It has a happy ending. Swoony romance.

I am feeling a bit nervous looking at the OST’s music video…there’s going to be angst coming up 😓. Looks like the ML is forced to marry someone else? Didn’t think I would get so invested in this drama.

Love it too! Such a heart tugging melody.

So excited for this drama…hoping they will release it earlier to ride on the newfound popularity of Li Yun Rui. I think Zhou Yi Ran and Bao Shang En are both good looking and talented rising stars. Loved him in When I Fly Towards You and her as Huang Rong. Of course am excited by the pairing of Li Yun Rui and Wan Peng too！Absolutely can’t wait for this!!! Off to read the novel.

What a rowdy and fun crew!!! Love it!!

I laughed so much at how the family forgot about informing Cijiu when they moved house and forgetting to give him a room too 😂😂😂. This drama is a joy to watch!

How can someone be soooo handsome?!

I just finished reading the translated novel. A thrilling and romantic story. The female lead character Fan Chang Yu is strong - love her! Can totally see Zhang Ling He as Xie Zheng. Swooning! Can’t wait for the drama version especially since it’s directed by Zeng Qing Jie (loved Blossom!).

Finished the novel translation. She’s such a badass assassin!! It’s not a GL. Two souls sharing a body; An Jiu eventually owns the body because Mei Jiu dies. Mei Jiu is reborn in a different body. I wonder how much of the original novel the drama will follow.

I didn’t expect to like this show this much but now I’ve binged to episode 18! It’s an entertaining watch; there’s intrigue, fantasy, action and the characters are interesting and fun - his relatives, the guardians, Yang Yan, Caiwei, the demons etc. The uncle is hilarious. Great casting of Wang He Di in this role.

Absolutely spot on! Thank you for your review.

Done! Thanks for the kind words!

Done!

Good fun so far, very watchable. Two lead actors I like, especially charismatic Li Yun Rui, and the supporting cast too.

Never have I completed a drama before that made me shed tears all throughout. I stand by my earlier comment that this production is absolutely gorgeous in all aspects. Even sorrow and pain is beautiful. Love is heartbreaking. Courage to stand firm and to fight for those who can’t. Courage to love knowing what lies ahead. Trust and brotherhood. Okay, maybe the flashbacks are a tad longwinded but that’s a minor, minor miss. It’s a story about heroes and it inspires and moves me. A ten for me.

I think this was one of the funniest and entertaining j dramas I’ve watched. I suggest to view it through a Japanese cultural filter from that year, 2015. Society is changing slowly now in 2024 but the patriarchy is strong and will take time. Many j dramas reflect this culture.

Totally agree with you. The news is rather kdrama-biased.

This show is utterly gorgeous. Like a dream. It hits all my senses. I drop everything to watch it - haven’t felt like this about a drama in a long time. Let’s hope the remaining episodes stay on track.
