This drama started out strong, but then fell flat. I'm a huge Leo fan, and felt not even him cod save this drama. I felt this same feeling when I watched I Will Never Let You Go, with Vin Zhang, and Ariel Lin in it.
So, the Elders are not allowed to fall in love. Ding Shui, was banned, because she fell in love with the former emporer. Which, caused his death. She was shunned upon. Qing Chen, isn't allowed to fall in love. She fell in love with someone in the royal family, and everyone just supports her? Hypocrisy?
MDL drama synopsis needs some editing. I'm in epi 4 and could not reconcile the story line. ML is so stiff, FL…
It gets better. I think the supporting cast makes up for it. I don't know if it's cause Alan is not used to serious roles or what not, but he is so stiff
