A great drama. One of the rarer ones that are not wholly romance oriented and yet still has an amazing ability to hook you in. It reminds me a little of the Legend of Zang Hai, both focusing on revenge instead of love. Wu Jinyan and Wang Xingyue served with acting, visuals and chemistry. The whole plot clicked, from the control Princess Wanning (Li Meng) had on Shen Yurong (Liang Yongqi) to make him do such a horrible thing to the wife he loved, and fate giving Xue Fangfei a second chance at life. Fangfei and Xiao Heng/Duke Su had a really positive relationship, albeit it being grounded on her plans of revenge and his plans of revenge as well. This drama deserves all the praise it gets, it's really great. The development of the relationship over time, them both not losing their heads over romance and staying sharp the whole time. The lead couple fit together well, the whole drama overall was well paced and had you hooked till the end unlike some other dramas that make you suffer trying to watch them till the end. I'm quoting another review now: "Xue Fang Fei was a female lead worthy of respect." I 100% agree with this statement, there was no silliness or immaturity, she was grounded and knew what she was doing the whole time. Quoting again from the same review, this time about Xiao Heng: "he was a drool-worthy male lead. Powerful, skilled, intimidating while being gorgeously green flag. " Sometimes others put things I mean to say into words better than I ever could, therefore I take bits and put them into my own perspectives. Overall, The Double was powerful and enticing, and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. (Ignore my rating for music, unless it's really good I just put a two for everything)
