Impressive, entertaining and engaging!!
Lu Lingfeng, general of imperial guards,who is known to be arrogant and reckless crosses paths with Su Wuming,a disciple of Di Renjie,while dealing with a string of cases in Chang'an,the capital city of Tang empire.They are joined afterwards by Pei Xijun,a talented painter,Chicken Fed,a good physician,Xue Huan,disciple of Lu Lingfeng,and then Yingtao ,a swordswoman.How the team solve cases that stumble their way as they move on from one place to another forms the main crux of the plot.I liked the way how the team solve cases with detailed analysis into each and every clue,with cute and sweet interactions between them.I especially enjoyed the rapport between Lu Lingfeng and Su Wuming.The team thereafter develop an emotional relationship with each other.All the characters are well written.
The pace is very good with almost no boring moments and the twists in the cases are perfectly solved.
Overall it is a very good investigative kingdom drama with a perfect teamwork interlaced with emotions and logical analysis.A highly recommended drama!!

A brilliant and outstanding drama!!
Hunting Chinese drama is one of the best dramas I have watched so far.I am so glad that I had chanced upon this drama in MDL.Plot-The story kicks off with the death of Qian Cheng,a small factory owner,who claims that he is cheated by Wang Bolin, the owner of Kerui pharmaceuticals.The police officers of Beijiang crime branch come on board to solve this high profile crime,which involves stock market manipulation,money laundering,murders, bribery and greediness,under the leadership of Director Yang.Sooner,an economic division to catch economic criminals is formed under the Ministry of public bureau.
The male lead, Deputy Director Xia Yuan,who later on becomes Director,is honest,sincere, dedicated,smart,intelligent,hardworking,and values law over emotions.
The female lead,Officer Wu Jiaqi, is smart, sincere, straightforward, intelligent, spontaneous and enthusiastic woman who has past which involves Wang Bolin.She aspires to be police to bring justice to her mother.
Performances -I liked the chemistry and the little and cute romantic track of the two leads.I liked how their characters matured and developed along with their relationship.
Wang Kai is brilliant in his performance.He is one of those actors who can express emotions through his eyes.He is an excellent actor who gives perfect and apt expressions,be it emotions, investigation or romance.
Though this is the first time I have watched Angel Wang,her performance is very good.She is really impressive.
Now, coming to the main antagonist of this drama,Wang Bolin, played by Liu Yijun,is cunning, manipulative,smart, yet emotional person towards his family.Liu Yijun,excelled in his performance.Each and every expression in each and every scene involving him,were brilliantly portrayed by him.From being sinister to scary to being cruel and threatening others,yet showing love towards his family,his performance is the main highlight of this drama.Liu Yijun is an outstanding actor.Kudos to him!!
Hu Jun,who played the role of Director Yang,is remarkable and deserves a special mention and appreciation for his performance.Kudos to him too!!
All the actors were excellent in their roles.Each and everyone have given their best.
Music-The background music for each scene and situation is apt and suits the ongoing investigation.
The plot is really solid and the pace is excellent.There were no boring moments,atleast for me.Each and every scene was well written.The screenplay and editing is excellent!!There were many tense moments and also some moments kept me on the edge of the seat also.The whole idea of catching the criminals in different countries with the help of the local police was too good.That src of the drama really impressed me.The whole drama was very intense and grippy from the beginning to the end.
I really liked the way, how the thoughts and emotions of each and every person,who were directly or indirectly involved,were perfectly blended with investigation and analysis of the case.Every detail was handled perfectly.
Conclusion -Finally,this drama is outstanding in all aspects for me .It is definitely a MUST WATCH drama for its engaging plot and presentation.A HIGHLY recommended drama that deserves a thumbs up.

A different concept of investigation
This drama uniquely deals with insects as clues to find the original culprits of every crime.Tan Jingtian,played by Gala Zhang,is an student,who is determined to know the truth behind his mother's death.But he accidentally gets involved with investigative bureau and later on helps them to solve many cases in which there maybe no clues and also might meet a dead end.
He mainly uses his knowledge of the behaviours of insects to solve cases and catch the culprits in crimes in which the police could not find any breakthroughs.
The concept is relatively new and kind of unique,because solving a crime based on insects,their habits and behaviours was nice and manages to keep you hooked till the end.
Though the drama has the male lead trying to know the truth behind his parents death,I liked the concept of insects more.
Nevertheless,all the mysteries are solved in the last episode which I felt could be written better.
Though some flashbacks were repetitive sometimes,the pace of the story was good.The plot was designed with good number of twists and turns.
The cast were good in their acting.
A unique drama which will not disappoint you.A good watch!Will definitely watch the sequel too.

It can be cited as a political drama with the female lead caught in a soup.Tiffany Tang,plays the role of Princess Weiyoung,whose family gets killed ruthlessly when she was Princess Xun er,and through a series of changes becomes Weiyoung.Here she meets Tuoba Jun,played by Luo Jin and both of them get entangled in various struggles,problems and difficulties.
Well,the drama is quite interesting.Though there may be some boring or dragging moments,it makes you watch it till the end.
I liked the acting of Luo Jin very much and Tiffany Tang was also good in her role.
The villains were vicious in nature and always try to create problems for Weiyoung and Tuoba Jun.This scheming process may become tiresome few times,but it is okay to watch it.
The costumes were good,sets and locations were also good.All the other actors were good too.Finally,it is a decent watch.

Merging of science and spirituality!!
The young ruler,Yuan Yi,is caught in a difficult situation regarding his kingdom falling into doldrums.He sets off on a quest to find someone with spiritual power who can help him solve the crisis and accidentally meets Ling Long,daughter of Huo Tu xin.Their meeting leads to unearthing many secrets of the past that could cause an uproar in Suchuan.The story was pretty good but failed in the stage of development.This could be better written with much more intensity.
The actors were good in their acting, especially Yuan Hong.He was the only saving grace of this half baked plot.
The drama starts off on a promising note,but falls flat half-way through the drama.
The VFX were fine, costumes were okay.
Screenplay and pace were a bit slow for me.
Overall the plot and characters need to be developed towards the end,but this drama utterly fails in that aspect.The only saving factor is the relationship of Father -daughter duo, especially the father.
Otherwise,it is a strict one time watch,only if you want to watch,else it can be ignored without any regrets.

Short and sweet!!
With a total of 24 episodes,this drama is really fun to watch.The plot involves the female protagonist who has to switch between 2 different personalities and the male protagonist who has wolf bloodline running through his veins.The storyline is good,there are no tense moments.It starts off on a lighter note and progresses till the end as a light hearted drama.There are some funny moments,some cute,sweet and romantic moments,and finally a mystery that is unfolded at the end.
The actors were good especially Jason Gu.Connie Kang was also good in her performance.
The costumes,sets, locations, screenplay were good.
The wolf princess is a good drama though it is a one time watch for me.

Naga pearls to Lady Pearl!!
Haishi,a young girl from a coastal town,is taken to collect Naga Pearls and is rescued by Fang Zhu,the male lead and from then,their tale of love and destiny starts.Both Yang Mi and William Chan,who played the lead roles were impressive in their acting skills.
I liked the role and acting of Xu Kaicheng the most in this drama.I felt he was natural in his acting.He plays the role of emperor who is emotional,sentimental, loving, caring,values relations and is also a good ruler but unfortunately ends tragically.
The story and premise is relatively new and the way it was handled is also good.All the actors were good.Everything else is also good.
Overall it is a good watch.

Political struggle in historical times!!
This drama,accidentally was recommended to me,by YouTube.I am glad I watched it,because it has a solid plot with an intense screenplay from the beginning to the end.The story revolves about the transfer of power from Sui dynasty to Tang Dynasty and the heroes who came into glory in those turbulent times.How these heroes,motivated people,stood by them in tough times,fought for better governance despite losing some of their loved ones,helped citizens of the country pass through rough phases and successfully helped Tang dynasty rise to power.
The story was very good and solid from the beginning.There were lots of tensive moments with a good pace that kept me hooked till the end.
This is the first time I am watching Yang Yi Kuan and he is excellent in his performance.Jiang Wu and Zhang Han were also perfect in their roles.
The actors did a good job in portraying their roles.They really made the story interesting.
I was really impressed by the way they showcased how people lived in constant fear,formed teams,army units and alliances,while some of them stayed united,some betrayed,some died.All their struggles,anguishes, anxieties tensions were beautifully portrayed on the screen.
The romantic tracks were also decent and good.
The costumes,sets,music were good.Though they may seem outdated with respect to the present day technology used in chinese dramas,surely you can give this drama a chance to watch to know the history,culture, struggles,politics of Sui dynasty and Tang dynasties.
I highly recommend this historical drama.It is a very good watch!!

Intertwined destinies !!
Chu Xuanji,who is born deprived of six senses,meets Yu Sifeng,a disciple of Lize palace,whose mask is broken by Xuan ji.He gets punished after returning back to his sect,while Xuanji,sets off on a journey to learn martial arts.
Once again,they meet each other,but this time more secrets buried for thousands of years are unraveled.
Well,xianxia dramas always concern the 3 realms- heaven,demon and human realms.
They largely involve reincarnations,safety of the 3 realms and a hidden conspiracy,if left unsolved,would nearly destroy the world.
In this drama,they mainly focus on God of War and Star of Mosha,who were sent to earth for penance after a thousand years battle in the heavens.
The final twist which revealed the hidden mystery was good.
Also,the twist involving the spirit keys and sects in mortal realm were good.
The entanglement of lifetimes of both the protagonists and how each of them ended tragically were also interesting.
The cast,costumes,plot,pace, screenplay,sets,CGI,acting were all good.
A worth watching xianxia drama,even if it's long,you can go for it.

A good sequel!
Well,the sequel has much more emotions added to it.Everything winds up perfectly.Though there are some villainous moments added to it,it's still watchable.
This is the first time I have watched Li Hongyi in a modern drama.He fits the role of Han Qi lu,a rich guy.
Xing Fei was good in her role as usual.
Overall,summing up the 2 seasons,Master Devil Do not Kiss me is an easily watchable drama without any hesitation.

Light hearted romcom drama
This drama has no complex twists or intense moments,to start off with.It us a very light hearted drama which you can easily watch after watching many nail biting and tensive dramas.It is all about students and their life.It may also sometimes remind you of your student life.
From spreading gossips to playing politics,falling in love,making bonds of friendship,this drama does not disappoint you.
All tha actors were good in their performances.The costumes,school, production, screenplay everything was also fine.
Bring a series of just 20 min episode each,i think this is easily watchable.

Twist unfolded!!
Second part starts off from where the first part ends.Finally,the whole group set off on a journey to the Thunder City,where the secret is supposed to be hidden.

The final twist is somewhat unexpected!
Overall both the seasons make up.fir a good watch, especially for those people who like treasure hunt series or tomb raidings series.

Thunder to treasure!!
This drama deals with mysteries,tomb raidings,treasures, supernatural elements,. Honestly this is my first time watching such a kind of genre.Wu Xue,Zhang Qiling,and Pan Zi,known as the Iron Triangle set off on a exciting, thrilling yet dangerous journey,based on the audio tapes regarding thunder sounds recorded by Wu Xie's uncle.Throughout their journey,they explore new locations,meet different people, experience life and death situations.
The character I liked the most is Black Glasses,played by,Baron Chen.He was one of those people,who was reliable, dependable, emotional,a true friend for the Iron Triangle till the end.
All the cast gave their best.
The twists and turns,though some of them were eerie,will make you sit to the end.
The first part ends on a good note.
Waiting for the second part.

Good vs evil in a fantasy world!!
The plot is all about the Yin Yang master,Qing Ming,joining hands with Yuan Boya,and many others to protect the world from evil and resurrection of the Demon King.This is the first time,I have seen Chen Kun's acting and he is a very good actor.
Wang Likun,Shen Yue,Zhou Xun,William Chan and all are very good in their acting,making it an interesting and intense subject.
I was surprised to see William Chan as an antagonist and he was very impressive in his role.The CGI,sets, production,plot were good.
A decent watch in the Yin Yang master series.
