Simple one!!
Maiden Holmes is simple in terms of story.The female lead trying to get justice for her wiped out clan unjustly.The male lead trying to know the villain who wants to bring him down.Both Zhang Linghe and Sabrina Chen were good as ml and fl.
The other actors were good in their roles.
The plot is mainly based on investigation,which I thought could be much more focused upon.
Friendship part was shown good,but lacks a bit intensity.
Overall this drama is a simple one yet worth trying for a one time watch, without many twists and turns.

It's commander Tan all the way!
This is the first time I am watching a drama of both of Chen Xingxu and Zhang Jingyi.Chen Xingxu as Commander Tan excelled in his performance.He is honest, sincere,caring,living,brave,jovial and at the same time a very tricky male lead so far I saw.
Honestly to say,this is a one man show of Commander Tan.
This drama has all elements -sentiment,honesty,emotion,love and many a times was hilarious too.
The star cast was perfect and were very apt in giving expression to the situations.
It also showcases the intense military warfare in medieval times in China.
If you are looking for a perfect blend of all the emotions in the right amounts, then this one is for you.

A political military hilarious drama
This was my first time watching both Xu Kai and Bai Lu drama.The story is set in Republican era of China showcasing both political and military tensions.
But the best part is the academy and fights between Gu yanzhen and Xie Xiang.
Xu Kai as Gu yanzhen acted very perfectly.He really made me laugh in some scenes.Gu yanzhen is very funny,teasing and humourous.
Bai Lu's acting as Xie Xiang is very good.
All the other cast outshined in their roles.
Overall it is a very good drama which make you laugh and ease your tensions.
I highly recommend this drama.

Nice detective drama
This mystery drama,which is only 24 episodes has really surprised me.The story is very well paced.All the scenes and incidents were well written and they were connected to the next incidents, since,in detective dramas,connectivity between incidents is most important.The main leads acted well.The locations, costumes,CGI were good.The fights were choreographed well.Both the love stories were good ,though the second lead love was not a success.The end twist surprised me.
I would highly recommend this drama.Go for it.It is worth our time.

A love that transcends beyond races, ages and times!!
Moonlight mystique is an excellent xianxia masterpiece, in my honest opinion.I thoroughly enjoyed it. Though in the beginning, I felt a bit confused, the latter half totally engaged me in the story and twists and turns. I truly enjoyed watching the Outlander's, stone clan, bodhi village and the divine race arcs.
The costumes were excellent matching with beautiful sets that perfectly suit for the plot.
The special effects and action scenes were superb.
All the actors were truly fabulous in their performances. Bai Lu, Ao Ruipeng, Dai Luwa, Chang Huasen and others were excellent💯
A special mention to Han Dong for effortlessly playing a sinisterous antagonist👌
The drama takes us on a journey of Bai Shuo who, meets Fan Yue and together gather contemplations for their own purposes, in the beginning, but face many hurdles and life and death situations and heartwrenching separations, and gradually uncover their past life and finally putting an end to evil, therefore, establishing peace in the world.
Truly a MASTERPIECE!!
I am sure you will enjoy each and every moment.
Kudos to the director and everyone🤗for such a beautifully crafted, marvelous xianxia drama!!

A beautiful drama with a simple plot, beautiful and eye pleasing locations, two people who overcome all the struggles and obstacles in their life and heartwarming family relations-totally makeup Love story in the 1970's.🤗The plot is simple and straightforward.
Good people reap good, while bad people always meet a bad ending and patience always, is the key for achieving anything in one's life. That is what this beautiful drama portrays in a simple manner.
Fang Muyang and Fei Ni, have become one of my favorite couple😍. They have a mutual understanding, support and encourage each other, and always are there for each other in anytime, no matter the place is. I love them 🥰. The development of their love track is really impressive.
Arthur Chen and Sun Qian were perfectly cast for their roles, and I can never imagine anyone else in their roles. They were excellent in their performances.
All the other actors were also excellent👍
The music is good. Costumes were good too.
The Republican era setting suited well.

A lovable and appealing farm romance amidst non-appealing family matters
I was quite skeptical to watch this but after reading the reviews, I gave it a try and trust me, it didnt disappoint me. Glad that I watched it, though late, it really entertained me!!The plot is simple with our female lead, Lian Man'er, entering a NPC game designed by a gaming company and all the experiences, difficulties, hurdles, love, hate, friendship, family relations, tensive moments, and, of course, trying her level best to gather 1000taels of gold, all form the crux of the story.
Tian Xiwei as Lian Man'er, is awesome. Seriously, I am totally impressed by her performance as a quirky, cheerful, smart, intelligent, village girl with also a bit of kindness and humanity to her personality. She is full of business ideas and works very hard to earn money, and all the emotions and struggles she undergo were excellently portrayed by her. 👏💯
Joseph Zheng as Shen Nuo, is my favorite character in this drama. He is cool, smart, loving, caring, gentle, helping, amiable,and becomes the most reliable person for Man'er, also the person she wants to be with. His acting is splendid 😍💯
I really liked the love track between them, which is a sensible and mature love story.
Coming to her family, they are the epitomes of all the worst thoughts of human hearts, we can think of in this world.
And how Man'er gets her way through this family out and finally with Shen Nuo, save the country from a rebellion forms the latter story.
The photography and locations deserve a great appreciation. 👍👌The backdrop was very pleasant and eye appealing for me. I really love it.
The music is excellent too, especially the track, You, and me. Its become one of my favorites now 😍
On a final note, if anyone is thinking to watch this drama, go ahead without any hesitation and you will certainly enjoy it.
A MUST WATCH HIGHLY RECOMMENDED DRAMA. 👌

As long as you turn around, I am always there!!!
Reborn, is a message oriented, highly emotional family drama, which definitely leaves an impact on you, imho.It comes with a simple yet most complex plot line told through the suffering of a family, especially through our protagonist , Qiao Qing Yu and her family, whose lives turn upside down after the death of her sister, Qiao Bei Yu.
It showcases the predujuces she abd her family face due to her sister's death, the emotional trauma each of them carries, that has been buried in their hearts, the ugly side of familial relations and many other issues that everyone of us can relate to in our real life.
It showcases the bond between parents and children, choosing between society and relatives and our children, and how sometimes, everything the children need is only a simple line from their parents-"I am there and will always be with you ", that really makes a huge differene in the lives of children.
Anyways, the plot is about how Qiao Qing Yu, the female lead brings justice to her sister, who wasn't stopped judging by the society even after death and how she overcomes all these emotional struggles and leads her family to a joyuos home, is all what this drama is about.
I really liked the way, the story proceeds very realistically.
The female lead, Qiao Qing Yu, played by Zhang Jingyi, is perhaps the most serious female character, I have ever watched. She is firm, determined, confident, stubborn, strong, who stands up for her sister, to bring justice for her. She, though being impulsive, in the beginning, definitely grows to be a mature young girl. She is not the typical female lead that we often see, but under her silence, you can see how powerful she is enduring everything, yet trying to stand up for what she believes. She is fearless, bold and brave.
Zhang Jingyi, really surprised me with her STUNNING, OUTSTANDING performance. She carried the whole show excellently. An excellent, fabulous acting from her💯👍👏
Now coming to Ming Sheng, he is my favourite character in this drama, the male lead, brings out the smile in our Qing Yu, always supports her unconditionally, was the only one who was there for her in her loneliest and toughest times of her life, always finds her,helps her and clears the obstacles in her life.
Zhou yiran, as I said, is an excellent actor and this is another work of him that exactly highlights his excellent acting skills👍👌
Liu Dan, the actress who played her mother, deserves a special applause for her outstanding performance as a mother, who lost one daughter, trying to protect another daughter, undergoing depression, supporting family,a heavy burden deeply buried in her heart and yet under trauma, that sometimes makes Qing yu suffer.
The music was excellent with lyrics carrying powerful messages.
The production, photography, every thing were perfect.
What I like the most in this drama, is the underlying beautiful Love story between the leads. I liked how she can be what she is, in the presence of Ming Sheng. He has been the only person who supported her both emotionally, physically and also, personally and professionally. He was always there for her, her "LIGHTHOUSE".
I liked the idea of how the director and the writers have showed us the unconditional support and love of Ming Shen to Qing Yu through the "legend of lighthouse".
"Some of my fave lines are-
Ming Sheng to Qing yu-As long as you turn around, I will always be there.
Qing Yu-No matter how many roads i went, they all led to you. "
So for me, the LOVE STORY, really took an extra point over the rest of the series, though its limited screen time is the only downside for me.
Overall a beautiful ,emotional , story of Qing Yu, who afterall what she went through, found her LIGHTHOUSE, her third wish that had come true😊😍.
A HIGHLY RECOMMENDED MUST WATCH CHINESE DRAMA for me.

Surprisingly, a very good watch!!
I started Treasure at Dawn, without any expectations, but surprisingly,it really impressed me a lot!!First, the plot is really solid and proceeds at a steady pace,. Though, there may not be nail biting twists and turns or sequences, but still the drama manages us to keep hooked to it till the end.
Fu Sheng, played by Li Hongyi, is a very profession oriented person whose main focus is healing people. He is very calm, steady, smart, intelligent, focused, patient and Li Hongyi has really excelled in breathing life into Fu Sheng. I cannot imagine anyone else as Fu Sheng, which is also the main point for watching this drama. He has really done a great job, who also loves his friends a lot.
Gu Tian, played bu Yu Chengen, is quirky, smart, playful, versed in martial arts, and is always there for his both friends in difficult times.
Wen Jue, by Su Xiaotong, also is a very impressuve character, collectively forming the tough and formidable trio.
What I liked most is the bond between the Trio, their friendship, loyalty towards each other and the way their bond has been developed on screen is really a delight to watch.
The costumes fit the plot, the locations were very pleasant and eye pleasing.
The ost is also good and the way the mystery is unfolded using songs, is also very impressive 👌
The most irrritating character, however, would be Sun Siming and hatsoff to the actor who effortlessly portryed this despicable and cunning role.
Finally, this drama is really a WORTH WATCH one, and I would Highly recommend it 💯👍
Thank you to the whole team for this impressive show👏

Splendid and exceptional!!!!
Usually,I would like to write a review in detail regarding a drama, but, Twelve letters, in my honest opinion, is a very brilliant, excellent MASTERPIECE💯👌👍Everything about this drama makes it a MUST WATCH drama. The plot is intriguing adding a slice of suspense, through a cat and a mailbox.
As the story unfolds, it take us on an emotional rollercoaster ride. This drama made me cry, feel sad, disturbed and frustrated over the character of Ye Yibo, feel anxious, angst , mad and finally brought me a bit of relief and smile for the last episode.
Seriously, I cried bitterly in few situations of the drama.
I liked each and every character in this drama,Tang Yi Xun, Ye Hai Tang, Yu Nian, Shen Cheng, Zhang Quan, Cha, Rat, Zhen Zhu, Miao Miao, Tan Xin,Shen Xiao Jun,and the bookstore owner, except Bao and his gang and the sinisterous father, Ye Yibo.
All the actors did an outstanding and excellent job in portraying their roles.
The whole drama is fabulous and mind blowing😊👌
Any one, who are thinking over watching this drama, I would suggest, please WATCH THIS DRAMA, you will nit regret watching it, else you will definitely miss an EMOTIONAL MASTERPIECE OF LOVE!!
A TRUE LOVE STORY ,between two timelines connected by a cat and a red mailbox at midnight, only to face many hurdles and challenges , and finally unite as one, with help from the people from future and avoid disasters and alter their future, hatsoff to Tang Yi Xun, Ye Hai Tang,for staying strong and supporting each other and Yu Nian, Shen Cheng, Zhang Quan and Miao Miao, in helping Xun and Tang alter their fate.
Highly highly recommended drama!! 🤗

An impressive legend of a valiant female general!!
He Yan, takes the name of He Ru Fei, her elder brother, and becomes the valiant and extraordinary female general Feihong. Though forced to take upon her brother's identity for preserving the noble status of her family, she gets herself entangled in the conspiracy of Mingshui battle, that claimed the 30,000 lives of soldiers along with the general of Xiao army. Later she gets blinded, abandoned and killed by her brother, only to return back as He Yan and join Yezhou Garrison, to reclaim everything back and clear her name. Gradually, she earns the trust and support of Commander Xiao Jue, of Xiao army, who is investigating the conspiracy of Mingshui battle and thinks He Ru Fei has betrayed them. The latter part ends with investiigating criminals and bursting conspiracies.Zhou Ye as He Yan is really tailor made for this role.
Her performance was fabulous👌
Cheng Lei is excellent as Xiao Jue. Their chemistry was very good.
All the actors delivered excellent performances and the action scenes were very good. All the war scenes were well choreographed and picturised.
The cinematography, costumes, music, plot, pace, everything were good.
Though the plot has some loopholes, it is still a worth watching drama that keeps you glued , imo.
On a final note, it is a very good drama 👍

A captivating emotional masterpiece
The youth memories is a subtle yet powerful, educative drama that takes us back to our memories in youth.The story starts off quite slow and also proceeds at a slow pace in the first episodes, but takes a turn after many unprecedented incidents take place in the lives of the group of young people, who grew up in the same compound.
The drama teaches us never to lose hope, rise again with a new confidence,even if one falls to the lowest point and through the character of Xiao Chunsheng, the protagonist.
Also, the drama is laced purely around emotions, which maybe betrayal, love, brotherhood, siblings bond, friendship, marriage and most importantly, trust, the base of all.
It portrays how younger generation in their youth, chalk out many plans for their future, and move forward with many aspirations, but life may not be the same as we plan, rather we need to plan and prepare ourselves according to the situations we encounter.
And there are many such great inspiring points in this drama which make it worth watching, like, life offers us many options, and everything is purely based on the choices we make.
I liked how all the above points and lessons of life are told through each and every character in this drama.
All the actors are outstanding n their performances. They have really brought the characters to life.
My favourite character is Tong Xiaomei and I am glad Xiao Chunsheng met her in his life. She is a very matured, reserved, supportive and encouraging wife and Li Qin was very good in her role.
Xiao Zhan, as I always say, is an outstanding actor. From being herioc as the young Chunsheng to a phase filled with only despair and depression to a successful businessman with facing many betrayals and hurdles and being a loving husband and father, he balances every expression and acting is 💯 Ithink this is the best work of him till date.
All the other actors are fabulous in their acting.
The dialogues are very good and sometimes touching too.
Though I dont like to watch republican period dramas, somehow this drama doesnt give you a feel as such but instead you find yourself drawn 7 engaged in the story.
The costumes and sets were good. I also would like to thank the director for this beautiful and hearttouching drama.
A worth watching drama with a realistic approach and an inspiring theme!!! 💯

An underrated and well executed drama!! ?
I have kept this drama on my "plan to watch list" for a long time and finally gave it a chance.Untouchable lovers, in my honest opinion is a very well made drama, which could be given a try to watch.
The plot revolves around Rong Zhi, the male protagonist and Liu Chuyu, the female protagonist and their respective kingdoms,Wei and Song and their love story.
The story starts off with the Song arc and then shifts to the Wei arc in the second half.
To be honest, I liked the Wei arc much more. It is interlaced with many twists(though they are commonly seen in many kingdom dramas) blending with emotions, loyalty, friendship, patriotism, love, jealousy, hatred.
The emotions were balanced perfectly and the cases which keep popping up to our protagonists, though may be like the regular ones we see, but were dealt in different ways. I really liked the way how they sometimes racked up their brains to solve the stream of problems which keep coming their way.
Song Weilong as Rong Zhi was perfect in every way.
This is the first time I am watching Guan Xiaotong's drama and her performance as Liu Chuyu was good, though I felt the character could much more matured.
I especially liked the story of female general, Huo Xuan. Bai Lu was excellent in her portrayal. The whole plot of the general was very impressive.
Xu Kai as Shen Yu and Wu Jinyan as Empress Dowager were perfect.
All the other cast were good.
I wolud like to specially mention the visuals and the sets. They were excellent for me. Tbh, they are the main asset of this drama.
Lastly, this drama is a"WORTH WATCHING"one.If anyone wants to watch few years old dramas, then this one can be easily added to their list.

An ending to all the plots of season 1!!
Season 2,for me,was like a conclusion to all the characters introduced in season 1.As usual,the costumes, locations,music, screenplay,sets were good.
Coming to the plot,it was good but rather I find the plot of season 1 more interesting and complex.
However,since it's a final note for all the characters involved,it is a good watch.
The only character I felt bad for was Xiang Liu.May he could have been given a better ending,for the sacrifices he made and also for his selfless and pure love towards XiaoYao.I felt that Xiaoyao really needs to know his love and sacrifice for her.And he is also the only character that actually managed to keep me watching the drama with all his interesting and mysterious aura,yet gentle and loving nature from inside.
Anyways,all the actors were terrific in their roles.
I personally liked the scenes and chemistry of Xiang Liu and Xiaoyao.Yang Zi and Tan Jianci were perfect for their roles.Their conversations,though very short lived on screen,portrayed how heartbreaking love could be,since both of them knew the outcome.
Finally,lost you forever season 2 is a good watch , at least to know how all the main characters of Dahuang ended.
