this drama stimulates the use of cognitive capacity
The Chinese drama Feud (The Lament of the Immortal River) was released for streaming in 2025, and I finished the episodes because I was captivated by the drama's successive twists and turns until the surprising ending.
This drama boasts stunning visuals, an exceptional performance by actress Bai Lu, who plays the protagonist, and the script features highly complex characters.
Incredibly, the script manages to present unexpected twists and turns with the ability to debunk any theories.
It's a typical drama made for people who enjoy being surprised and using their cognitive abilities during entertainment.
I found the ending to be moving and satisfying. It offers a happy ending for the protagonists in a genre (xianxia) that often has tragic endings.
Although it's a xianxia drama—a drama heavily influenced by Chinese folklore and Taoism—built on a fantasy foundation that blends elements of high magic beyond the human world, combining immortal beings, demons, and magic to achieve the goal of immortality through spiritual cultivation. I recommend this drama because the story's development is unpredictable and has a great capacity to surprise at the end.
In other words, it's the kind of drama that makes you feel like the time spent choosing the entertainment was well spent because it stimulates the use of cognitive capacity to follow the characters' motivations, the narrative's developments, and, especially, because it surprises the viewer with the final revelations.
