Scheming Yu Lou

I can say that it is a quality production. It was nice. I had fun while watching it, I felt the romance both in terms of romantic comedy and showing a real love. It was not bad. Especially the romantic comedy between Wei Liang and Xia Tao was very entertaining. It was not good that it ended badly. I liked these. The romance of the leading actors pales in comparison to theirs. The relationship between Xiao Fan and Bi Zhi smelled of excessive romance but it did not pass us by. Because it was like the product of a cold relationship. I likened it to the relationship between a maid and her mistress within the framework of the marriage of a nobleman and a slave. But the spirit was given. In other words, the feeling that they were blindly in love was given. It was given but I did not get it. That is, something like that. Let's put it this way; the advantages of the series are that the production is very good, the costumes, the cast, the action, the acting, the management are perfect. However, there were problems with the story. Or I felt problems with the reflection. I could not find it suitable for the beauty and quality of the series.
We watched the classic Yu Lou. In my opinion, it was a fiasco from beginning to end. If you ask why. Think of a person, the woman the heir of the Wei Dynasty loves, but the man dies before they can get married. Before he dies, he says, "Take care of her, take care of her". But the woman marries someone else. He also dies. She becomes a talk of the town with someone else. She does not stay idle. This time, she is interested in the brother of the man who loves her, and wants to have a relationship with him. That person, Wei Shao, does not reciprocate her interest, but takes care of her as his brother's trust. He does not show the interest and attention he shows her to his wife, whom he marries. He hosts her in the best guest rooms. He does not do anything he says. But he does not reciprocate the woman's interest, that is, her love for him. Thereupon, Yu Lou starts various intrigues. Every time, what he did is revealed and Lord Wei forgives him. In the end, his secret is revealed and he gets fed up with it, so he kills Yu Lou's brother. She cuts off Yu Lou's nose, she says she will inform the other dynasties that she did this, she will send you home too, but none of this happens and the same woman continues her evil deeds by showing interest and concern for someone else, again by making people fight each other, until the end of the series. Even enduring this was agony. It was so simple, I mean, they shouldn't use it anymore. It looks like a patchwork sack now. I mean, this character is a character that is put there to make people fight each other, she is thrown around and owned as much as no one else is owned. I couldn't make sense of it. I think it was too much. Either this character should have been completely in the series, for example, she should have been the wife of the deceased brother. She should have had a say in the dynasty so that what she did would be useful. She wanders from one branch to another like a sparrow landing on another branch. Like a prostitute. And she is held in high esteem. Can such a character exist? Can this be valued? Could a man attack his wife for this? Could he strangle her? You would be amazed how such a clever and cruel person could believe this woman's nonsense. It didn't happen. I didn't like it. It overshadowed the beauty of the series. Would a dead husband leave his wife a general and 50,000 soldiers? Doesn't that dynasty have an heir? What a meaningless, meaningless thing. It's a whole other thing that other dynasty leaders believe such a woman. Is everyone an idiot? Is there no reasoning, no research is done. No investigation. No checking whether it's true or false. In other words, it's a complete fiasco.
Telling gossip to children by singing songs. It's probably a CHINESE classic now. Do you have a grudge against someone? Take 10 children and show them around the city. Make people sick of you. Such an approach. Can't gossip be normal in these days? Or in this country. These are simplistic. Screenwriter mistakes.
They kidnap Xiao Fan, her father tells his son-in-law that if you don't do what I say, I'll kill my daughter. Or Liu Yan will kill you. A father threatening his son-in-law with killing his daughter. Wouldn't a father tell him not to kill my daughter? I've never seen such logic. I've never heard of it. I understand if you and your daughter are at odds. You must have become enemies. There is no such thing. What is it? They were going to pull the groom to their side. After all, the girl killed herself. If the groom Bi Zhi had thrown the spear in his hand at those who were standing against him and threatening him instead of using it on those who were with him. The case would have been closed long ago. Logically wrong.
There is a backstreet at the entrance to the city. When Liu Yan's army enters, the Wei soldiers oppose him, draw their swords and fight like that.
But when the Wei army comes, Liu Yan's soldiers shoot arrows. The Wei soldier cannot enter or loses a lot of soldiers from the beginning.
If both armies had done the same, Li Yan would not have been able to enter that city. Another logical error. You make one shoot arrows. Let it not enter. You don't let the other shoot arrows, let it enter. At least you should have found another game, scriptwriter. It didn't work. Such simplicity doesn't suit this beautiful series.
I must say that I liked the harmony of the lead actors. If Liu Yu Ning is an IDOL, I also enjoy watching her. I accept the term IDOL series. I watch almost all of her series. Those who haven't watched can watch.

A Queen's epic of existence

I want to start by saying that I liked the series. But just because I liked it doesn't mean that there are no aspects to criticize. First of all, I can say that it was very meticulous, no expense was spared, everything was done perfectly in the production, be it the costumes, the casting, the crowded cast, the locations, the scenes. The action scenes were amazing. However, there was a kind of imitation. I especially sensed an imitation of the Game of Thrones series. There are many similar scenes. I even compared the clothing and images. These are not at all similar to the clothing and cabinet member styles in other Korean series. You will say that these are the early days, when the tribes were at the forefront. There will be differences. I understand, I say. There are deep differences. For example, shamanism is very prominent. Nudity and sex scenes are interspersed, there were many especially in the beginning episodes. It was cut later. Maybe one was necessary, I think the others were unnecessary. The aim here is, yes, there are those, war, turmoil, fights, ambitions, jealousies, a lot of things, of course there was sex too. It seemed like they were shoved in our faces as if they had a sex life. It could be. The writer and director must have known something of course. But some of it was unnecessary. I liked the actors. Especially our queen Jun Jong Seo is very successful, she made a great effort to make herself felt in that attitude despite her body and youth, I congratulate her. I also found Ji Jang Wook successful. Especially her image suits her very well, she was shown differently than she is. She was quite majestic. I liked it. Kim Moo Yul is one of the rare actors who can achieve this with his calmness, I found him extremely successful. He showed this in every scene. He maintained the same style for a long time. Well done. Jung Yu Mi, Jo Han Chul, Lee So Hyuk, Park Ji Hwan, Lee Hae Woo were the actors who caught my eye. I also congratulate Park Bo Youn for his courage. Someone who says that role is his cannot and would not play it. As far as I know, her husband is also an actor and they did a hard job. I especially congratulate this actor. Bravo. I think there will be a sequel to the series. Because the war ended instead of starting. What happened, what ended. We don't know. We are waiting for the next season to find out. I recommend it to those who haven't watched it.

Brotherhood

The first season ended in a way reminiscent of the second season. So it seems like there must be a sequel. I think the series is an old production and has been put on hold until 2024. While describing the inter-clan wars, the internal events of the Zichuan clan they are in are described. The Clan Chief Lord and his niece, the princess, rule the clan, but a rebellion occurs within the clan, but it is not successful. The Chief, whom we thought to be very passive, old, inefficient and weak, turns out to be cunning and competent. He saves his clan. However, while saving him, he also commits ruthless massacres, especially those committed by generals like Di Lin. In any case, the rebellious Minister of War was also ruthless. Di Lin was also his cultivation. His death occurred because he was not with her. Yang Xu Wen, who appears as the primary protagonist here, stands out with his cunning and skillful strategy that does not show itself outwardly. But in the distribution of roles, it is as if three brothers shared three roles. The leading roles were shared. There doesn't seem to be anyone who appears primary. I saw Li Yu Ning in another leading role. Yang Xu is given a bit of awkwardness, making him seem unqualified as a fun personality. I think he does his role well, but it seems fake to me. It didn't happen. The female lead who accompanied him, Li Mo Zhi., also seemed passive to me. It's like they were forced to be a couple. It's like they were forced to accept acting in this series. Our third lead, Zhang Ming En, did his part, but he didn't have the consistency I wanted either. So they did their part. They have no excess. I think the best one is Liu Yu Ning. Let me say that he neither exaggerated nor underplayed his game, and in my opinion, this passivity was the best. He didn't have any excess either. I think the supporting roles were more successful. Supporting actors such as Ma Shao Hua, Zhang Fan, Benjamin Zhang, Xiu Qing were more successful. They added value to their roles. I like. I liked the action and battle scenes. I loved the excitement. I liked the production and direction. I'm waiting for the second season too.

It's one of my favorite shows of the season. Especially since I like Leo Wu and Zhao LuSi so much, it became an even more special drama for me. CAST was very successful. Although there were occasional disruptions in the story, the actors were very strong, the management was good. Therefore, the story flowed very well and was reflected to the audience.
Our series, which actually contains a beautiful love story, was a revenge series. From the beginning to the end, we always felt this vengeance secretly. We felt love as being with him when he needed it, being saved by it many times, admiration behind the gratitude for it, and then being strongly attached. It went on like this until the end. We understood that even if a resentful person is in peace, they cannot be separated, and that they will not be in the heart with another person, even in appearance. These were presented to us in such a beautiful way. I congratulate the director and the actors for this.
The series did not pass with mere revenge and love games, there was action, there was war, there was loyalty, there was comedy. Especially Cheng Grandma was awesome. I pass alone. I bow respectfully before our artist. I really liked your game. The other comedian, Baba Cheng Shi, was also great. Mother Yuan Yi followed them. I admired him. Our Emperor Jieng Feng did a great job. He was good at everything. He's also very into comedy. The harmony of the spouses with each other was also wonderful. I have never seen such an emperor consortium before. At the same time, they fascinated with their beauty. Likewise, there was a perfect harmony and acting, be it teenagers, princesses, princes, other family children. I can say I'm lost.
The harmony of our lead couple was also great. Congratulations to them. I'm waiting for your new series. I hope to watch.
I think this was the flash series of the year. It was the number one series for me. I have several such strings. We look forward to the continuation. Please producers and directors we are waiting for such great series sir. Health to your hands.

Lord Huaiyang

It was a series that I liked and watched. I was curious. I waited for the episodes. That's why I can say it's a good series. It attracted me with its plot and story. The actors were very good. In fact, what makes you watch the series are the story and the people who portray it. There was a good CAST. They were compatible. Apart from the leading roles, our supporting roles are also of high quality and did a very good job. They made it watchable. There were minor mistakes. I got bored in some episodes. Because it was too long. Trivial events were squeezed in to fill the gaps. They seemed to be smirking. But when you look at it in general, it is a series that is watched with pleasure with a good story, good acting and good management and plot. I recommend it to everyone.

Friendship, brotherhood

I liked the series. I watched it with interest. Were there any parts I didn't like? Yes. Were there any mistakes? Yes. But I don't want to talk about these. Because I watched the series with interest until the end and generally liked it. First of all, friendship and brotherhood are discussed. It was very emotional in some parts. It made me sad that the heroes died. I was especially saddened by the death of Yueri's character. His words before he died seemed to indicate that he would die. Like let's always be together, never be apart, let's grow old together. Even the fact that the man she loved was excluded as a lover because he loved someone else did not affect her. He continued his friendship and brotherhood. This really impressed me. I am sad. The deaths of Tang Yu., the character who had to be bad but tried to be good because he loved him, the Female General, the immortal master winemaker, and the fairy butterfly, had an impact. Finally, Ling Er went to her death. The series ended before I could feel it. Looks like there's more to come. What I mean is that there were very emotional, sad scenes and an ending. But I felt the love, warmth and friendship in the series. I especially liked He Yu.'s performance. This kid has acted in good TV series lately and proven himself. I think he will be a sought-after star. I liked your game. It is also successful in activation. It suits me too. Yang Yu Tong, on the other hand, seems a little more subdued. I last saw him in a small role in the TV series Faithful. I liked it very much. Maybe that's why he was offered the lead role in this series, or maybe it was because of his bravery. Because there may have been some people who didn't want to shoot the snake scenes. In my opinion, the role may not have suited him. I do not know. I guess it wasn't the first name thought of. He also portrayed a good character as A Nu in Hu Yi Xuan from the TV series Faithful. I like. He was also very successful in Faithful. He was successful here too. Likewise, I also really liked Xu Hao, who played the character Yueru. Was very good. Overall the cast was good. But I would like to say that I did not find some of the actors, especially Yu Tong, good in this drama. For example, I couldn't understand what Zeng Li was doing. Why did you waste such an actor here, he was so funny in the role you gave him. I didn't like the role given. It didn't happen. I didn't like the actor playing the king. It didn't happen. There were deficiencies in CAST. You must fit the selected actor well into the role you have chosen. Suitable for his role. He should give his due. It's a shame to cast a good actor in an unfair role. Because the role isn't worth a damn. I have seen such shortcomings. But overall it was nice. Well done to those who worked hard. I recommend it to those who haven't watched it. Watch.

Two separate worlds

Generally speaking, I liked the series. However, I didn't like the ending. It was not a pleasant ending. At first, I didn't find the lead actors compatible with each other. Irene Song is a petite type. His very thin face is a bit childish, if you look deeply you can also see an old face on the same face. He has such a face too. He is a chirpy, active, enthusiastic, childish type. No matter who he plays with, let alone Wang Yu Shouo, such romantic roles are not for him. I watched it as two separate characters. I watched Irene Song and Wang Yu Shou as if they were two separate personalities, I accepted them as if they were separate rather than together. They couldn't come together completely anyway. But as an actor, I can't say anything to anyone. The role assigned to Irene Song was too much. Also, he has been activated, he has become a general, he is fighting and overthrowing everyone in his path. But he doesn't seem to have the strength to raise his hands. 35 kg. A girl who weighs This role is too much for him. So wrong person. I'm not saying he couldn't do his role. It didn't suit him. There was no double. However, they played their roles well. The story was good. Drama scenes were nice. I felt like I was about to cry. I was so impressed. The activation scenes were also nice. The actors were good. The supporting cast was also good. I will not touch on the simplicities and mistakes. Because it happens in every TV series. There were many. But it can be watched. It's a series you can watch without much expectation.

First of all, let me say that it was a series that I loved watching. There were times when the level dropped. There were a lot of repetitions. Sometimes there were places where I said that was enough. Especially the bad woman ying yeng, the curator. I have never seen such a curator. Probably because he was in the heavens, he took root in the whole heavenly realm. It was very strange that someone in charge of the exhibits, which we will call the warehouseman, let someone who has a godly power leave what he did not do. Come on, you've finally sent this woman into exile. Mashallah, while the good ones were creeping up, this bad woman again took root in the nation. She kills whoever gets in her way. She is ruining. Others are watching. We passed that too. This woman is dead. She turned into an ice sculpture. He resurrected again and did evil. Oh, now I waited until the end of the series because this curator would come out from somewhere. I didn't particularly like these parts. I did not find it suitable for the series. I had a hard time understanding why. Then we should have said that even if you made a strong God, it was a strong personality you were dealing with. It didn't happen. Congratulations to the lone player. He portrayed evil so beautifully. I hope he doesn't get stuck on these roles. Other than that, I took it a little more normal. After all, it's a fantastic series. I especially liked the actors. It's a team of very good players. It was like a celebrity parade. When I saw the very good, very beautiful and handsome actors together, I wished it wouldn't end. I especially liked the young actors, especially Yang Zi, Chengi Yi, Ray Chang. I laughed a lot at Marshal Huo. Congratulations to Li Yu. Let's not miss our director together with the actors. I can say that the management was close to perfect. The view is magnificent as always. The ending did not satisfy me a bit, but it was as if they died and were reborn, but found each other again and were happy. Or something similar. It was as if it was left to the imagination of the audience. But I still get the result. It is satisfactory from my point of view. I expect such beautiful series from our directors and producers and new works with such a group of actors.

A Zhao Lu Si Classic

It was a good series that I enjoyed watching. It has become a more watchable series with the difference of Zhao Lu Si. Because the player has a lot of influence. Let me say so, it has increased the quality and watchability of the series even more. Otherwise it would be a more ordinary series. It's a series that we can't say anything like because it's fantastic. There were minor mistakes and places where I thought it would have been better if it wasn't like this. There were places I found wrong. But overall, it was a good series. Other players were good too. Unfortunately, Wang An Yu appeared in ninety percent of the drama with the same face, a resentful, sad, tearful face. I do not know the reason. Maybe the director wanted it that way. However, it suited his role. The two leads were compatible. Besides them, I liked Li Yun Rui, CAo Fei Ran, He Kai Lang, Jia Nai. Cao Fei Ran was especially successful in the role of the evil woman. I liked it as a game. The management and shooting were very good. I recommend it to fantasy series lovers.

A series that gives the feeling of watching an old series

The series started well. It attracted me. I watched 10 episodes. Then I started to get bored. It gave me the impression that they gave a new presentation to an old series. Because I saw Liu Xue Yi young. I saw her a little stiff. I said I am watching the 2025 series but what happened to this one. It looked very slow. On the contrary, the female actress was very lively. It seemed like there was a mismatch. But what impressed me the most was that it was like a presentation of an old series with a new date. Ao Rui Peng seemed like he had just started acting. Even he was very young and at the beginning of his career. Of course, I am not Chinese. I do not follow from there. I am far from the events. We watch whatever is shown to us. I am only a close follower of Chinese Dramas. I watch it with pleasure. That's all. But especially the names are effective in the series we watch. I started watching the series because Liu Xue Yi and Ao Rui Peng were there. I thought such a series would be great with these actors. However, I was disappointed. Although the actors adapted to their jobs, the plot got heavier and more meaningless. Acting was not enough. Romance started, progressed, went well. As I said, it stopped after the 10th episode. There was no progress. It was like a series going back and forth. They became a fairy, an immortal, a demon, a mortal, and I got confused while watching. There was a coldness in a series that already gave the impression of being old. As a result, I couldn't stand it and stopped watching after 22 episodes.

A heavy story and narration, good acting

It was a series that I liked in general. I watched it until the end. Although the story was not perfect, it was a good story but it had a slow rhythm. I got bored sometimes while watching. The long conversations were especially boring. It confused the story. The beautiful series sometimes fell to the ground. However, the savior was the actors. Get rid of the actors, the story remains below zero. The series stopped being a series. The actors saved the series.

It does not suit the series to give everything away just because we are watching a fantasy series. Even gods die, some so-called gods even eliminate their superiors. They play tricks on them, they deceive them. A deity who is an ceremonial god rules the entire world, no one hears his soul. A god packages a city and sends it 250 km to the other side. The person next to him cannot understand who he is. Who has the power to do such a thing? He learns at the end of the series. After that, there are angers, resentments, etc. The man cuts his hand and throws it away. They wake him up. He returns to the world with his healthy hand. What happened to that cut hand? You will say, the man is dead and you are asking about his hand? It is really such a situation. I gave examples to explain the seriousness of the series. They even hit the bottom of fantasy. It didn't happen. What a shame for these beautiful actors. If it weren't for them, it wouldn't have been watched anyway. They should pray for the actors, I gave the score for the effort. Liu Xiue Yi is a very good actor. His face goes well with every game. He has a pale and calm facial feature, but I should call it an actor' face. He looks older than he is. He looks mature. He goes well with every role. He is a successful actor. I appreciate it. I last watched Tiffany Tang in "The Legend of Xiao Chuo". She was much better. She is a good actress anyway. I liked her acting in this series too. Sometimes there can be a good or bad distinction between actors. The male actor may be more dominant, but I think Tiffany, who got married and had children, showed her acting again and did what was required for her role. The other supporting actors were also perfect. Especially in the 30th episode, master actor Tang Jian Chang made an acting debut, her performance in her short role was applaudable. I applaud her too. Cristy Guo, Wang Hong Yi, Daniel Zhoi, Zhang Li, Jiang Kai are the prominent actors. I liked the entire cast but I thought I'd write some of them again. No offense to those I didn't write. The acting was good and the action was good.

Jun Fei Fan's Story

I liked the series from the beginning. I had hopes that something good would happen. I said there are good actors. I said there is action. I said if there is romance on top of it and it is kept in the story, it will be delicious. I wish I hadn't. The story gradually became less and less story-like. It drifted away from the subject. It turned into what I was watching. First of all, the actors are not compatible with each other. They are not equal. They are very different. Angela Baby is a very good actress but I could not recognize her in this series. Or it seems that it is getting harder for her to act as she gets older. There is no facial expression. She started with the same face and finished with the same face. Our young lead actress Song Wei Long will be a good actress. Her facial expression is very good. She plays older than her age. She is also good. However, there is no harmony between the two leads. There is no harmony. There is a difference. It is as if they are playing separately. I did not like it. Wrong match. For example, Yao Chi was wasted in this series. Except for her emotional scene in the last episode, she is almost non-existent. However, she is a very good actress who deserves to be the lead. She could not show her other skills here but she has a good fabric. In my opinion, she fits the Angel Faced Monster expression. She does these well. For example, Ren Hao was good. Because she darkened herself and went like that until the end. Because she was suitable for her role. Bai Bing Ke is a very good actress. But the character given to her. Is it a crazy princess role or something? It was like harassment from head to toe. You could have at least not called her princess, it was a shame for this actress. I liked Wang Yi Ting. The role went well for her. She did well. Her action also looked good. She also gives a good image. Well done. Young actors were better, I think. I liked the supporting roles. But I didn't like the series in general. The story didn't go as it started, it was fragmented. I'm not even going into the king and chancellor events, I mean, impossible things happened. It was a weird scenario. Especially that uncle and his son, okay, their funny side, but it made me wonder how such a businessman could exist. I was surprised whether to laugh or cry. However, the actors played well. However, the story and scenario were terrible. Sorry. It didn't work.

The Prince Who Doesn't Want to Be King

The story started off well. It progressed well for a while. Then it turned to the Prince Who Doesn't Want to Be King story. Although he chooses all the kings, he doesn't want to be a king himself, and he doesn't even accept getting married and having children. Such a personality. However, our hero is someone who has taken in and raised a lot of orphans, and made them into men. The woman also wants to be an apprentice to someone who fits this name. But she falls in love with her master. However, her master stands by his words even though he loves her. Good. It's understandable to some extent. However, later on, he consents to the woman he loves marrying someone else, even though she doesn't want it. This marriage breaks up. Then, the man insists again and wants to marry her again, and they get engaged again. He says yes to this. In other words, just as he plays with the woman's nerves, he also plays with the audience's nerves. Such a character is unacceptable. It's wrong. This character doesn't kill his opponents and surrenders himself to them in the last episodes of the series, despite his own soldiers coming to the rescue, despite having the opportunity. Our hero turns into a paper tiger. Because he wants to save the little king, he sacrifices himself instead. It's understandable. But it's advantageous. The little king comes to him. When he comes, he can kill both enemies in front of him. But he doesn't. He is torn to pieces by these enemies. It's not going to happen. It's not possible. But they did it. It's wrong. Likewise, let's leave aside our paper tiger hero. Our smart female hero also marries that prince. She says if my mother allows it. She agrees to marry without saying a word to her mother. Why doesn't she talk? Finally, the female hero also commits suicide. The mother says I'm guilty etc. So no matter where you look, I only have the last episodes. It didn't happen. It was like a comedy of errors. Some things didn't make sense to me. There was no sticky love affair. It seemed like loving from a distance was the most beautiful of loves. These places were good. These kinds of loves of the secondary roles were also handled well. The director was very good. The actors were very good. I really liked the cast. But I can't say the same thing about the script. I was going to give the series an 8, but I have to give it a 6.

The warmth brought by coldness

I watched the first 20 episodes of the series with great interest. After that, I can say that I watched it with some difficulty. In my opinion, the series was like a series that stagnates from time to time, offers beautiful cinematography accompanied by visuals, and is shot like award-winning movies. The music was also nice. I likened the series to award-winning movies that prioritize visuals, push the subject to the background, shoot a long scene, and are made as if they are emphasizing reality. The visuals are terrific. The music is good, the acting is good. Especially Li Qin has a clear beauty, she plays slowly and steadily, and poses calmly, serenely, and beautifully. The clothes also suit her. Being a doctor suits her. So do the movements. But stagnation only goes so far. It seems like a disjointed process. Sometimes she gets active. But Li Qin never gets active, thank God. She works as a doctor while lying down. She drinks constantly. A different kind of doctoring, a cure for every patient, an end to hopelessness. Go find me this and bring it. It comes right away. A few rare herbs and items come from Joseph Zeng instantly. It is supposedly a laborious task, but in the plans given to us, it seems to be solved quickly. In other words, I perceived it intermittently. It does not suit the series to find everything so quickly and as if it was put into place by hand. It did not happen. It remained simple. This is not our main topic, these must have been acted as side factors. Then, the Mio Feng character and the Zi Ye character play go from time to time at a common point. In other words, they must be in transition areas. It is shown as somewhere close. However, when they show the areas where the two live in the last episodes, it seems as if they are 4-5 days away. How do they play this game on foot and come to their living quarters? This superficiality made me stupid, for example. Which one is correct? If the distances are short, why were we the only ones able to get there in two long episodes? But why did we get there so quickly before? There were also problems in the transitions between topics. For example, the chief of the sword sect sent his sixth member as an agent to an opposing sect. While it is being discussed, this is his daughter's husband. His grandson dies. It is never mentioned. The head of the sect does not say it. They even say the seventh member killed him. He does not speak up. In the last episode, he says I sent him away. Are you angry with me? He did not tell his daughter either. This was not shown. His daughter knows her husband died. She lost her son. The woman lost herself. The man still has no idea. There is such indifference. There has not been a script written with an understanding befitting the subject. There is too much cruelty. The same cruel people became monks, grave guards, doctors. What is this diet, what is this pickled cabbage. In other words, the subject is like five different things. The reflection of the subject. It did not happen. I said it from the beginning Acting, visuals, music. There is nothing else. There were emotional scenes too. Let's not skip it. There is love but it was not felt much. The ending ended badly. Maybe it is a game that it did not end the way everyone expected. It is a quality. It is breaking the mold. It was formed according to the event. It is normal. I liked the actors. Joseph Zeng played the game. His activations were also very good. The reflection of his state after his beloved died in the last episode was also nice. I liked it. Li Qin was like the warmth under the coldness. He has a look as if there is warmth hidden under that cold stance. He gave pictures with his stance, calm and serene show. Even that was enough. No movement. Being a doctor suits him. Edward Chen was very successful in action scenes. He couldn't show the same in action scenes. What is Jenny Zeng's problem with Joseph Zeng? Are they related? I don't know. But this actor did justice to his role, his action is also very good. I liked it very much. Kim Jin's image suits him very well. It was as if someone else was playing him, not himself. He wouldn't have been this successful if he had played with his own face. I liked it. The cast was good in general. But I found too many mistakes, too much stasis, too many cuts. Would I watch it again? It's hard.

Snow Dragon Moustache flower

I liked the series in general. I enjoyed watching it. The story started with a sense of revenge, then the struggle between two brothers, then it turned into getting rid of an incident that was thrown at him. When events such as sending a princess to make peace between two countries, and the detention of a prince and the reflections of this were added, the story got a little confusing in my opinion. Also, both our prince and the woman he loved were poisoned, I think the prince got rid of the poison but the woman he loved could not get rid of it and eventually died. The deaths were very emotional. The scenes and the processing were done accordingly, I got very emotional while watching it. Zi Gu's death scenes especially upset me. The scene where Guard Qing Yan caught fire and jumped on the explosives was terrific. It was a scene like a triumphant excitement with emotion. I liked it very much. Bravo to those who think about it.
I think the negative aspects of the series are especially the Mei Lin character dying and reviving. This did not happen. At that time, it is difficult for a person to die and revive if they are poisoned. It is not possible for them to recover from illnesses so easily and then fight, assassinate and fight hundreds of people an hour later as if nothing happened.
It is also impossible for a Prince to get married without permission from his father the Emperor. It would be fake. It would not be announced. It is like an illegal marriage. If so, it is possible. I cannot say anything. Those issues were never discussed.
My last negative remark is about Baron Chen, who plays the character Prince Xiuan Lie. In other words, I like him. I have watched a few of his series. In this series, I watched him with astonishment. Can he be played this badly? He acted as if they forced him to act. He played it showily. He acted according to the book. He exaggerated. He made it very obvious. In other words, when his scenes came, I felt like shouting that I do not want to watch it. That much. In other words, I became estranged from the actor. I did not expect such a performance. I was shocked. Did the director force him? Otherwise, I do not want this role. He is in the mood to direct me and let's play like that, let's finish and leave. He was very ugly. Please excuse me. He should watch himself. He was the worst actor. In terms of acting.
I really liked the harmony of the lead actors, Xue Yi and Jin Yan. They were both very successful. Jin Yan is very successful in these assassin types. His stance and action are very good. I also really liked the emotional scenes. I think Xue Yi has surpassed himself. I watched a lot of his series. He was successful in all of them. He works very hard. Well done.

The other actor I liked was Huang Ri Ying. He was very successful in the Zi Gu character. Although he doesn't look much, I think he did his role very well. He added color with his cheerful, excited, lively attitude. He put his weight on it. They also did a good job with the veteran actor Jiang Kai about his marriage to an old emperor. I think he made him feel comfortable. In other words, he acted by thinking about the person opposite him, that's how I saw it. I got the feeling too. His emotional scenes were also very good. Wen Jun also had very few scenes. He gave himself an air and went with that air, he portrayed a prince beautifully with his stance and serious attitude, he gave his role a different air. There was nothing extra about the role, but I still say it was good. I liked it. I found Wei Tong good in the guard character. Well done. And our female general Xiao Tang. I was hesitant at first. But I don't know if my eyes got used to it over time. I said he was a very good general. Although his role didn't have much weight, he gave himself the air of a general. I found him successful. I recommend it to those who haven't watched it.
