Beautiful Drama

It was a very good series. I watched with interest and interest from start to finish. I really like. I also matched the actors. I found them compatible. Activation scenes were also near perfect. Very nice battle scenes, a visual feast, also the double fight scenes were very good.
The good hiding of evil in the story, the mystery was very appropriate. Although we knew, but still, we finally said that we did not know. We questioned why. After all, our heroes came to the places they wanted. However, the scenes where they lost their parents and loved ones during their arrival were filled with sadness. There were emotional places where I couldn't hold back my tears. After all, it was beautiful. It was colorful. There was love. There was love. There was sadness. There was mystery. Ambition, intrigue, activation, war, fighting, whatever you call it, it was there. I'm sorry it's over. I recommend it to those who haven't watched it.

Overall, it was a very good series. It was life itself. It was based on real events. It was a beautiful story. It dealt with a period in time when China was transitioning to a communist regime. I don't want to repeat the plot. It's a very good subject and story. In my opinion, it was a 10/10 series up to the 30th episode, but especially in the 33rd episode, small mistakes grew, and script errors occurred that ruined the series. In my eyes, the series underwent a transformation. For example, the younger sister visited her older sister many times and nothing ever happened to her. But then a villain came to the village. The sister realizes or suspects she's being followed and goes to her older sister. We watched so many episodes and never saw those deserted streets, but in that episode, those streets suddenly became deserted. The sister started coming through those deserted streets. When she came to her sister, she said, "I'm afraid of that villain, I feel like I'm being followed. How can I get home alone in these deserted streets?" Or her older sister could say this. She could say, "Let my brother-in-law take me." None of that happens. Again, the sister wanders into those deserted streets, and the bad guy catches her and kidnaps her. While he's kidnapping her, the village vendor, a young man, sees it and tries to intervene. However, he could hit the man with the stone he's holding, but he doesn't, while the bad guy keeps hitting him. Luckily, the girl escapes. In the second incident, it's what happens during childbirth. This, in my opinion, is illogical. The sister gets pregnant by the young man who rescued her. She wants to leave home to get married. But the woman who is the landlady and the sister's sister doesn't allow it. The woman hasn't been herself lately; she's experiencing a kind of psychological trauma. She's unstable. In this situation, a pregnant woman is there living with her. Let's say she's there to help. But it's clear that the woman's instability will harm the sister. And the sister understands this. She wants to escape, but the woman still doesn't let her go, and during this time, the sister's water breaks. She's going to give birth prematurely. Luckily, this unstable woman calls a midwife and delivers the baby. Her husband arrives immediately after the birth. Then the older sister comes home, takes the child, and says, "Let's leave this house, this woman isn't well." Despite the resistance, the older sister leaves with the child. As the couple is about to leave, the younger sister insists on saying goodbye to the unstable woman. Even though the older sister tells her to leave and takes the child, the younger sister still doesn't understand. She insists. She and her husband go to say goodbye to the woman. The woman says she'll cook a farewell meal, but puts poison in it. The couple, including the woman herself, die from poisoning. I don't understand the absurdity or the desire to kill them in this way. I can't make sense of it. In my opinion, it's wrong. The older sister and the baby escape. They survive. These two stay and die. What's the point? This older sister, Ning Xiu, interferes in everything. Everyone's children are in her care, family problems are her responsibility, solutions are her responsibility, runaways are her responsibility, fights are her responsibility, if someone is going to be kidnapped, it's her responsibility – in short, this woman is burdened with too much responsibility. She's portrayed as very possessive, as if all the responsibility and problems of the village are concentrated on her shoulders. Her husband listens to her. She handles everything under her command. She rebels against her rich father. She fights all the bad guys. She solves problems with the elders. She directs the agriculture. She decides what to plant. It's too much. Ninety-nine percent of the village is illiterate. Even the men are illiterate. But as a woman, she knows. She teaches too. She's the first to achieve everything. She discovers everything.

The Japanese occupation episode is complete nonsense. It ruined the series. The Japanese thought they could deal with the villagers by giving their own village men the rank of captain. That's the Japanese mentality. It was terrible. This bad boy went everywhere, disguised himself in every way. He did everything wrong. He was finally caught. Yet, so many innocent people died. He should have been the first to be killed. The wrong people suffered in the wrong place.

The actors really did a great job. Yang Mi was very successful at the beginning. Ou Hao was also very good. I liked it. Qin Hai Lu really surpassed himself in this series. Well done. Xing Fei was very good. He portrayed a different character beautifully. I wouldn't have recognized him from his image. He was very different. Zhang Tian Yang was very successful. Chi Peng was like he'd always been like this. He suited his role very well. I liked it. I really liked San Shao Long. Ni Da Hong, Patrick Zhang, Lan Ying Ying, Zhao Da, Pan Zhi Lin, Song Jia Lun, Gao Yu Qing were the standout performers. My rating is 8. I wish I could give it a 10. The screenwriter ruined the series, especially in the later episodes. It's a shame.

Eat, drink, sleep

The series was similar to several others I've watched. That's why I skipped some parts. I didn't particularly like the casting; the supporting cast was mediocre, and there were too many actors. Now, they pull every kind of nonsense they can, claiming to be a fantasy series. Impossible things are made to happen. Mistakes aren't dwelled on as fantasy, but they're corrected in the same fantastical way. Something like that.

Secondly, I liked the leads, but they were separate. They didn't strike me as a couple. They held the female lead to a very naive, low standard from the start, and then made her the leader of demons. Elevating her from a character who only cares about eating, drinking, and sleeping to extreme characters that transcend her is also fitting for a fantasy series. In contrast, our male character is a master. He's very knowledgeable, a jack-of-all-trades, a warrior, a vengeful, handsome, and qualified. He's immortal.
They don't suit each other at all. As I mentioned, there weren't any supporting characters, and I didn't like them. I'll just list the ones I liked.
And I don't know if this is specifically for the lead actors in these series. There's a trend to playing with the same face. Our lead character played this way from beginning to end, a serious, sullen, detached character who looked down on everyone. He didn't laugh. He shed a few tears. His face was the same all the time. His face was the same when he looked at his loved ones, the same when he took revenge, the same when he looked at his enemies. He was probably just a taché. They said this was the character. Play with that face. The female actor, on the other hand, had more variety. She laughed, had fun, got angry, shouted, called out, was serious and funny. Starting from this, our female actor was very diligent, versatile, and her facial expressions were beautiful, and it made me feel it. She conveyed love and affection well. In fact, I thought she was comfortable. I liked it. Our male actor, as I said, played with the same face. Playing with that face for 33 episodes is a feat. He was successful. He was good. I liked it, but I didn't like the monotony. I liked Wang Yi Ting. Gao Han, on the other hand, seemed a bit panicked. I don't know if he didn't like his role, but he played it strangely, as if he couldn't fully commit to it. Master actors like Zeng Li, Huang Hai Bing, and He Zhong Hua also added color to the series. I watched it from beginning to end. But I don't know if I'll watch it again.

It was a good series in general. I enjoyed watching it. Unfortunately, there were many parts I didn't like. The story was already familiar. A few stories like this have been made into series. The first one I remember is "The Rise of Ning". The fact that I can't remember and that they are siblings overlaps with each other. But maybe it could be the actors in terms of the treatment. The scripts are different, the novels they are inspired by are different. There are differences but there are also similarities. I liked that series more. I gave them both the same grade. This series hit me with its emotionality. The father incident in the death of ML's father moved me. FML's father's fondness for his daughter, finding and bringing her a husband, and laying out all his wealth in front of her affected me. In the same way, Qing Zhao's family's fondness for their children affected me. However, it didn't seem realistic to me that a very treacherous and cruel prince would spread roses in front of a woman he had known for two days and hired as a maid, decorate the surroundings with lights, and make her look beautiful. It was too much. It was rushed. A lot was rushed in this series. You threaten, you say you will kill, you beat them and then I threw roses on their way. I said no. It never happened. I was surprised by what logic they thought of such things. As a result, they turned the event into melancholy and had each other killed. In other words, it was as if the lovers died together. However, they were enemies. At least the girl wanted to kill the prince and avenge her father. As a result, she succeeded. It was strange that these things were done so freely. No one said don't do it. It has nothing to do with reality. After all, you are killing the prince. For example, the soldiers gave up very easily in the rebellion. These were rushed, I did it, it happened. I didn't like it. There are more, but I gave examples. The girl's acceptance of the family was also strange to me. It opened her eyes. She doesn't remember, but saying we are your brother and mother and accepting this was also rushed. I'm not even counting the love stories that followed. It didn't happen. The leading roles didn't fit together in my opinion. Although Lu Yu Xiao was lively and lively, Wang Zi Qi was that static. She played 40 episodes with one facial expression. It's not easy. Someone told her to stop like this. The man stood with the same face against everything. The same face loves. The same face gets angry. People are killing each other. The same face watches. Someone says I am your father, the same face. The same face says I love you. Wang Zi Qi seemed like he was forced to act. Lu Yu Xiao was great. She literally dragged the series. Well done. I really liked Snow Kong. This girl has a lot of work. She will do good things. I also really liked He Qiu. Such a brave role suits her. Roy Wang is like the man of bad roles. It suits her. I also really liked the veteran actors. They especially gave their emotions very well. The series wouldn't exist without them. Their effects are too much. I wouldn't tell those who want to watch not to watch it.

Although the beginning was a bit weak, the series later recovered and went well. It was a well-thought-out story. However, there were some mistakes while editing. Of course, I am skipping some things because they are fantastic. However, it did not seem convincing to me that a very weak and sickly uncle beat his brother for two episodes. Of course, he has been given hundreds of talents, he knocks him down if he blows. It did not work for me. Secondly, Ren Jia Lun looks very slumped at the beginning, I do not know if it is because of the clothes he wears or the weakness of the actor. His posture is hunched, weary and bored. Here he is supposedly playing a Demon Hunter and is a warrior. He beats up anyone who comes his way. But this posture did not work. The director should have paid attention to this and at least he should have been made to stand upright, if it is about the clothes, he should have been dressed in proper clothes that fit him, this actor has played in most of the series he has played in costume series and is an experienced actor. However, I could not see these here. He is a very good actor, he has lived and gained experience, I expect much better. I had watched a few dramas of our actress Song Zu Er before. She had played dynamic roles. I can say that she had a very exciting and lively performance. She was very good here too. However, it seemed to me that they had a bit of a hard time in the scenes with the male actor. However, she was much better in the scenes apart from him. In other words, no matter how much effort there was between the actors, some things are obvious. The only negative thing I would say about Song Zu Er in this drama is that her mouth is open, it does not suit a star actress. I think she has a problem with her nose and wants to breathe through her mouth, she always looks like her mouth is open. This spoils her image. This is very obvious in some places. Otherwise, the actress is a very good actress with her physique, height and appearance. Her dynamic acting did not suit the immobile male actor. But they still played well. Apart from that, Xuan Yan who played Chief Chu, our Judge Girl Fan Shuai Qi, Rabbit Demon Liu Ruo Gu, Servant Girl Liu Qi Qi, Vinnie Yao were very good. I liked our veteran actors very much. Congratulations to Hankiz Omar as the dancing girl, Zhang Zu Xin who plays the Puppet Demon, Sha Man Li Yu, Wu Chong Xuan as the Snake Demon, and Sun Tian Yu as BanXia's fiancée for adding value to their roles. I also liked these actors. In the end, everyone forgot each other. The girl remembered but they couldn't get together. So it was a sad ending. I didn't like it but it made the audience cry. I think there will be a second season.

Parallel universe?

Our series is handled very simply, again a simple story, first of all, a person who comes from the past to the future and changes some things, and also a mysterious event such as finding the perpetrator of the attempted murder. Both fantasy and mystery are added, but here the events are so simplified that it gives the impression that I would have made this series.
Nothing is pursued, excessive research, chasing, insisting, forcing, harassing, beating, swearing, such as things that constantly overwhelm the person are avoided. The event is handled in a simple manner and an attempt is made to end it with simplicity.
In particular, a mistake such as the lack of respirators when the woman who owns the restaurant was taken from the Intensive Care Unit to the ward was overlooked. They say that there is no room in the intensive care unit, we will have to take you to the ward, but the patient, who is equipped with all kinds of equipment in the intensive care unit, is left with a serum in the normal ward. I leave the evaluation to the audience and those who manage this. Do you think it will happen? He could not breathe there, but his breathing is very good in the normal ward, sir, why should we put the devices on? What is it? A very obvious mistake. I'm not counting the other simple things. Simplicity was prioritized. A plain narrative was adopted. I said, I got the impression that a new director was told to shoot this series and start his career and see how it will be. There was such simplicity, such plainness in the series and there was no room for embellishment, exaggeration, excess, acting, or going deeper. The director also learned how to shoot a series with this series, did his internship, or maybe the scriptwriter is the same. These are my guesses. My inferences. That's it. I'm not saying it's definite. I'm saying it gave me that impression. The actors' roles were also plain and simple. There was no exaggeration. There was no very good acting. There was no very famous actor. Lee Sae On and Lee So Min seemed to me to be a little more suited to their roles, settled in, and better. That's all. Our veteran actors did their job. But anyone can watch it to pass the time without expecting much. I watched it. I smiled, but my eyes got wet at some points. I was also curious. But don't expect too much.

Saint

Generally speaking, I can say that I watched a good series. Because I waited for the next episode with curiosity and watched the whole thing. This means that there is something. However, this does not mean that our series is wonderful. No. Unfortunately, there are many mistakes. Especially the logical mistakes drove me crazy while watching. Think about it, the emperor of the country, his sister is doing everything but he is not aware of it. When it happens, he forgives. Then he dies as a trouble for him. I do not know if there is such indifference. Would an emperor forgive someone who made so many mistakes, committed murder, wanted to kill or killed his children, wives, and closest relatives, including himself? I would not forgive. If you forgive him, would he bury him in the family cemetery when he dies? If you bury him, would he bury him with the most noble title? The writer of this series wrote this series with a very stupid way of thinking, with the attitude of doing everything that cannot be done. It did not work for me. An enemy is created, the sister of an emperor, but she is worth the whole country, she comes out from under every rock, does everything, kills, beats, imprisons, tortures, does all kinds of evil. She even challenges the emperor, scolds him, reprimands him, makes him do what she says. It's too much. It's not. If you call her his daughter, she also kills people when she gets bored. Her mother says don't do it, my daughter, but she also laughs slyly. She says who does she take after.
Everyone knows what she does, but the emperor is not told. Even if it is told, the image is created that he wouldn't believe it. But it was told in the end. It was told, so what happened, he imprisoned the emperor. The image of an incompetent emperor has been created up to this point. His children are like that.
Although the Azize incident seemed to be taken quite seriously at the beginning, it later faded away and could not be sustained. It became annoying. It ended with peace in the end. It ended well. In other words, the best episode was the last episode. In my opinion, it also gave the image of a dull series. The series went back and forth. I can also say that it progressed slowly. There was a love theme, but although the love in the lead roles was handled, it seemed to me that it fell behind the loves in the secondary roles. For example, the love of the girl's brother was a little cheerful and a little disconnected, but I liked how they approached each other. The love of the blind princess and the judge was also very naive. There were also nice jokes. I liked the jokes. But I didn't like the relationship of the lead actors. Our lead actress couldn't show her role properly under very heavy make-up. Maybe it was just me. I found Jing Tian low. Zhang Wan Yi was better. I think he is a sought-after actor in such roles anyway. He has many series like this and I watched them all. He was the same in all of them. Nothing has changed. Zhang Chi is both an actor who is close to humor and a good actor in terms of complementarity. I liked it. I wouldn't want to see Xu Hao in this role. I found it strange from the beginning. But I can say that it was not bad. Bai King Ke is a very young actor. I think he is preparing for the lead role. He draws attention with his physique. Dominant roles suit him. He is promising for the future. Cui Hang was remarkable. I liked it. CAo Fei Ran, Xuan Yan, Huang Yi, Xia Qian, Lin Jing, Deng Ying, Ji Hao, Wu Mian, Gua Tao were the actors that looked good to me. I liked the cast. The direction, the costumes, the action were all very good.

Two halves of a fruit

It was a good series in general. I enjoyed watching it. However, there were aspects that I did not like, found heavy, and even repetitive. The many flashbacks were dizzying. They died once and were reborn once. Explaining the differences between them was like a separate episode. It was boring. However, it was well-acted, a good image was created in terms of direction, it never smirked, every fantasy element was used beautifully, whether it was the fight scenes or the teleportations. I liked it. The story got a little confusing. Being scattered in many directions caused the story to fall apart. While the relationship between a cult leader and his student was told, the student became the master and the master became the student, and our series became even more fantastical. On top of that, the pasts of these two, their relationships with other events on the one hand, and the extensions of that relationship came into play, and the story got longer and longer, and finally, it came to a demon escaping from the immortal world wreaking havoc, and we watched his intrigues. It did not work out as it started. It did not continue like that. I want to say this. It ended happily. This was pleasing. Secondly, although the depiction of love was a bit fragmented, the sincerity of the relationship was emphasized. It was reinforced. In other words, they could not separate the lovers. There were also interesting things. For example: Ran Wu, one of the siblings who was reborn from a fruit, threatens the other person by saying, "Don't do anything to me if something happens to you, or Ran Ran will die", while he tries to kill the character Ran Ran. If so, won't you die if you kill this person? These were contradictions, for example. I don't know if it was overlooked or done on purpose. Some things like this caught my eye. Again, this character Ran Wu, who was a very clumsy, clueless, jealous, envious character, who was alone, couldn't do any magic, teleportation, this or that, suddenly turned into a character who knew everything and even fought head-to-head with his sister and other characters, deceived everyone, defeated them, and became a threat, it was very fantastic. If he had been trained at least a little. If he had been taught something. I thought, wouldn't it have been better if he had been given and done these things? These were all overlooked. This character was later loaded with a lot of knowledge, power, invincibility, was it a divine gift? Did these come from the sky? No attention was paid to these, Our series is fantastic but there is a method, a plot, a beginning, development, and a conclusion. I wrote it and it happened. Sorry, our writer, but these did not happen. Especially this character was loaded with a lot of things, I did not understand why. What is the logic behind suddenly changing the person to contrast the sister, don't you have a way? Does everything happen with I did it and it happened? Or should a method be followed? I could not see these. Also, Uncle Ye Xin, who raised these two girls, suddenly appeared before us as the planner of everything, the person behind it, the evil spirit and the demon. I was surprised. He seemed very good and helpful. It was said that he planned these from the beginning. He set the place on fire. I did not know. But the characters were portrayed well, I liked the cast. Our leading roles, especially Deng Wei, were very suitable for the role and were successful in their function. Julia Xiang was very cheerful. Chen Xin Hai was a bit passive in the first half, namely the first 20 episodes, but in the second 20, she portrayed both sad, melancholy, evil, helpless, ambitious, ruthless, and fetishist characters very well in one go, I liked it. Congratulations. In other words, the actor portrayed the character of a person who learned that he was going to die especially towards the end. Well done. I also liked Deng Kai in terms of image. I also laughed a lot at him. I admired how he brought the two opposite poles together so beautifully, making his character both ruthless and funny. His image suited him, and I found him very prone to comedy. Losing his image and remaining with his own face was as if he had undressed and was naked. His image was better. Similarly, Cheng Zi, who played the woman he loved and her subordinate, also suited his image very well. When his image was erased, he seemed to have no character. I liked his portrayals. I watched a lot of Ai Mi's dramas. She usually appeared in maid roles. She has now moved from child actress to supporting roles, she was very successful in her role and played it flawlessly. Her infrastructure is strong, she is very experienced now. I don't know if it is because of her height, but she should be seen as the LEAD ACTOR by now. Those a year or two older than her have already made progress. I think Ai Mi is being treated unfairly. She has a very beautiful and innocent face. I think she should be used. But if there is such a thing as 1.65 height, I don't know of course. I find it suitable. I wanted to say this. Also, the master actor Ray Chang was very successful in his role. I would like to see him in these roles often. The role suits him very well. His image was also very good. He went for his role. Congratulations. In other words, I gave 8 points for the sake of acting and effort. I recommend it to those who haven't watched it, to fantasy lovers.

Kim Ji Eun's male performance

It was a good series in general. I watched it without getting bored. However, there were many mistakes and parts that were covered with things beyond our logic. The story was structured in two ways. The first was about students doing an internship at an inn and the events that happened to them there. The second was about events related to a mystery. The facts and consequences behind this.
I liked the mystery part. The school-like parts didn't really grab me. It seemed simple. It seemed childish. It seemed absurd. A lot of things came up thinking we would make fun of them. It didn't work. But the mystery part was very good. However, in the last episodes, the prince gathering the ministers and those who were interested in revealing the facts behind the events in front of the King, giving them a speech, inviting them to the right path, asking them to apologize, asking them to confess their crimes, exposing the King, including his father, and calling them traitors, in my opinion, was very absurd, even supernatural, beyond fantastic. It is impossible to imagine such a thing being structured, no king would allow it, he would kill him immediately. A father would not forgive his son, a son would not forgive his father. It was such an environment. There were similar incidents. These were glossed over, and they hurt the series' good progress. In the end, the series ended well. The actors were good. Even Kim Ji Eun, who appeared as a man from the beginning to the last episode, appeared as a woman in the last episode. We are so used to her as a man that it felt strange. I didn't like her as a woman. She suited her role to that extent. I especially liked Kim Eui Sung's image, who played the role of Cheon. The role he portrayed with this image was extraordinary. It was an award-winning performance. I congratulate the actor. The other actors were also good. I liked the cast.

Misunderstanding

I liked the beginning and continued watching. The series made me curious but there were many mistakes. I watched incredibly wrong things, whether in the plot or in reflecting the event to us. But for some reason, the series makes you watch itself. First of all, our female character does not accept whatever the man does. After accepting, she continues her relationship with another man. She goes out with him, even if he calls her at inappropriate times, she goes. Is there such a married woman figure? Especially in this era. She is an irresponsible type but a loving, cute, lively, exciting, independent, free-acting personality. She is also given responsibility and the representation of a place. If you look at the character, you should not give such a character this. I don't know how. We also have a King, maşallah. He does whatever his brother says. He does not say to the man from one day to the next, brother, why are you telling me these things? Or he does not say, "This man is telling the truth or lying, let's see if he is right or wrong." That is why he sacrifices his son. Then he regrets it. What kind of a character is he. Our female lead also believes this person, does not investigate the truth. But for some reason, she stands up to her husband who loves her. Incomprehensible situations. Again, a consort blames them for the mistakes she has made, accuses them. The accused are innocent but are punished. Then their innocence is understood. There is no punishment for the one who blames them. She continues to do the same things. Many times. For example, her son is involved in arms and gold smuggling. He is caught. The one who catches him is the other son of the King. When he says he didn't do it, the King directly accuses the son who caught him. He says catch him, throw him in jail. The incident is proven. The son who does not accept those accusations is really guilty. He gives house arrest to that son. He puts the other one in prison. He is innocent. He puts the guilty one under house arrest. Such a lack of character. Selections from absurdities. Again, a girl, her brother is executed for treason. The family should be executed. The girl is saved and the palace is treated like a princess, the daughter of a concubine. This girl commits all kinds of treason here. In other words, the person who is supposed to sit and stand up without raising his voice in this palace is behaving in a way that teaches the concubines a lesson. In other words, no matter where you hold it, it falls apart in your hand. Such a scenario. Again, the bad guy Duke An says that Duke Su burned down the place of worship where my mother was when she was little and killed my mother. The king who knows the incident does not say anything like that to his brother. That kid did everything he could to kill Duke Su from beginning to end. However, Duke Su knocked down two candles, only two curtains or books in the room were burned. No one died, but it is not said. Those who know do not say. The kid who does not know tries to kill him by saying that he killed my mother. He kills hundreds of innocent people for that cause. In the end, he committed suicide. His mother is also alive. In other words, we were very enlightened. It was such a good example for us, don't ask. In other words, shame on the scriptwriter who wrote this. Fortunately, the acting was very good. The direction is also not bad. But I liked the cast. Although Ju Jing Yi plays the same role in every series she plays, her series are watched. I don't know, she adds a liveliness. He is also a suitable actor with a sense of humor. He makes up for his shortcomings. Zhang Ze Han was also good, although not perfect. Our real second leads were quite humorous and made us watch a love story full of humor. All we had to do was smile. Wang Yo Shuo and Xu Ji Qi were good. They were compatible. I liked it. Likewise, the enemy uncle Liu Yi Chang was good. He has a beautiful face. He is tall. He is also suitable for the first lead role. He played the enemy. In other words, the bad guy. He suited him. Jiang Shan, Chang Cheng (Emperor), Lan Xi, I liked them all, they are endless. I gave 7.5 points for the sake of the actors. Actually, I should have given less to such an incompatible scenario. However, I watched it. Then they say you shouldn't have watched the whole thing, but I watched the whole thing.

Logical errors

I finished the series, even though it was hard. I liked the plot. But there were mistakes, errors, whatever you call them, in every episode of the series. They made things happen that didn't exist, they made things happen that shouldn't have been done. They got stuck as they wanted. The series of mistakes continued from beginning to end. I look for logic in events. I look for their conformity to reality. I am careful not to make a mockery of them. But it is still a story of success and revenge. It was interesting. That's all. Especially the male lead (ML) is not a suitable lead actor. I would ask where you found this actor and gave him the lead role. Because he is not romantic, he looks like he is going to beat you, he curls his lips like a bad guy. He doesn't have a star face. But he plays. He did. Good or bad. I can't say that he got along with the female actor. They had a hard time in some places. It was obvious. But then they probably got used to it. They seemed compatible in some places. The female lead (FML) looked a little better and dragged the series. I think it was better. He could be given female general roles. Instead of giving these roles to weak and feeble girls and moving away from reality, these roles should be given to people like Xiao Ran who are more upright and look like they can pull off whatever they want. Although Jin Han was successful in the action scenes, he was successful. I think he should play the bad guy, he should play comedy. He seems more inclined to these. Roles with romance in them are not for this guy. He looks very repulsive as a type. I didn't like it. There is no star type in my opinion. Apart from that, I really liked Du Ya Fei, Zhou Zan, especially Wang You Shou. I said he should be the leading star actor. Here you go, STAR TYPE. It's a shame for this actor. I also liked Chen Fang Tong, Gao Fei, Hai Ling. He Hong Shen was successful as a guest actor. The child actors were very good. Well done. Would I watch it again? Probably not.

Inverted Corners

It was a good series in general. It wouldn't be a lie if I said I got bored towards the end. I watched it by skipping some parts. I was surprised in the 39th and 40th episodes. The scriptwriter wanted to make us twists and turns, and good things happened in the first twist. In the second twist, the Jia Xua character, who was assigned to the border, is removed from the Guard Command and asked to go to a new duty station. A couple of scenes later, this character kidnaps Yi Ning, detonates explosives. He kills many people. He also breaks the Prime Minister character out of prison. Then, to the Shen Yuan character who wants to stop him, he says I am the Guard Commander and I am arresting you. The scriptwriter is saying what a diet, what a pickled cabbage. You know, this guy was removed from the Guard Commander and was going to a new duty station. How did he become the Guard Commander again, and block the road with a lot of soldiers, kill people, and kidnap people? It didn't work. Because the Emperor dismisses him. A man who is dismissed can never do that job again. He took it but he still can't say Commander, I'm still here. A Commander was already given in his place. These parts were left vague and in the end, this person suffered the consequences of what he did. He died. The incident ended. It was a happy ending. But these last two episodes overshadowed all the previous episodes and unfortunately left a bad impression on me, causing me to give the series 7.5 instead of 8.5.
The series actually started well but the plot got complicated. This prevented a good progress. The story did not continue the same from beginning to end.
I think the shining star of the series was Ci Sha. I have watched her before but she really made her presence felt in this series. She played a fixed-minded, obsessive lover and a despotic man beautifully. She was very successful with two separate identities. She overshadowed the leading roles. I like Zhang Wan Yi. I have watched a lot of her series. She has a certain line. It doesn't spoil it. She is a good actor. I liked it. I can't say the same for Ren Min. I watched one of her series before. It wasn't bad but I felt like she was a bit flighty or something, she couldn't give herself to the role. I didn't like his voice either. They didn't grin much as a duo, but Ren Min fell short. My opinion. He should focus on his roles a little more. He should get into it. The voice and dubbing should work. I liked all the other supporting roles. The acting was very good except for a couple of grins. The costumes were very nice. It was sparkling. The shooting was very good. Congratulations to the director. I don't congratulate the scriptwriter. You can watch it to pass the time.

Boring repetitions, never-dying Lu Ge

When I started watching the series, I said I was watching a very good series and I continued to watch it with pleasure. However, gradually there were declines in the plot and great conflicts in roles. A lot of nonsense ensued. Especially the chaos of the last chapters confused us a lot. It was a series that started well but showed a great decline in its beauty towards the end. The story was cute. I've watched a few similar TV series. There was even a series exactly like it, but I can't remember its name now.
The staff, in particular, was solid. A very good leading team has been formed. Much better things could have been done with these players. But unfortunately, they ruined these players at the end of the story. I was especially blown away by Xu Lu, who played with a sour face throughout. This actor is like this in all his series. I don't know what to say, whether to say the same sad face or a sour face. I'm amazed at how she smiles and looks beautiful with this face of hers. I have no words for his acting, but with that face I wish he hadn't acted. I loved the other actors. I passed on the leading roles, the supporting roles were also good. It was a good team. I congratulate the cast and director. However, a deficiency in the story, perhaps a deficiency in the scripting, a deficiency in the tying at the end, or the confusion undermined the watchability of the series, its rating, and the question of whether I would watch it again or recommend it.

Kim Hye Jin's rise from loser to writer

Even though it has many faults, even if it has its mistakes and excesses, it is a watchable series. It was nice, it was fun. What I don't like is the lame events. Everyone together crushes one person. What is this Korea's national longing? They are not afraid to show it off. They are very proud of other things. I don't like this at all. There are 10 employees. Everyone gives a job to someone. The one who is oppressed, God willing, acts beyond naivety. After this ability, a WRITER springs forth. He is also a UNIVERSITY GRADUATE. So it's not much? Is the person who wrote this so naive, or are those who watch it so naive? These are big mistakes. Or their lifestyle. An adopted move. It's KEEPING it there like a bastard.
For example: The girl from Support Services, she also just got a job. They say do this. I AM FINALING MY NAILS RIGHT NOW. Let the loser do it. He immediately says sir and jumps. THEY ARE CONSTANTLY CLOSED TO HIM. SHE CONTINUES TO DECORATE.
What's this? Fun or Funny? Scraping? Why is our friend so naive? So it's in the middle. Sometimes he says, "Oh, I'm busy, you gave me 10 jobs, at least don't give me the 11th one." He's a university graduate. There is also age. We shouldn't expect such things. SO THESE HAPPENED A LOT IN THIS SERIES.
Hwang Jung Eum portrayed this naive, loser but friendly personality, attached to his past and his family and friends, well. It was the engine of the series. So it was his dynamo. Excellent acting from start to finish. Park Se Joon pales in comparison. He tried to accompany. It was fine. But I think it's overshadowed. Si Won perfectly portrayed the mischievous child, that is, the crazy character that is the exact opposite of our naive character, that is, the naive and clever one. His character is a friend who cheats on a friend, but still proves his loyalty to his friend, and his character is slightly flirtatious, and he shows this in our eyes with the way he dresses, and it suits him. Goo Jon Hee was also pretty good. I like. It was different. Shin Dong Mi. I liked it very much. Experienced actress Hwang Seok Jung performed an act with an extravagance far beyond her own, congratulations. Jung Da Bin. was also successful as a child actor. As he grew up, he played good roles. But he couldn't get over himself. In my opinion, it couldn't make the expected explosion. The actors were good. In my opinion, extremes, over-understanding, and seeing this as normal were the mistakes of the series. It was wrong. Maybe it might work in Korea, I don't know, but I didn't like these. The rest is couple harmony and acting. Shooting and management were good apart from these. It was a good romantic comedy. It could have been much better. Despite all my negative comments, I enjoyed watching it.

Errors that don't show

It was one of the worst TV series I've watched lately, in terms of handling, narration, and scenario. It is a series with such good actors, and qualified in terms of management and gameplay, but the subject, the narration, the characters of the people in it, the reflection of the characters have been a complete disaster. I couldn't find any decent prince. One is a womanizer, the other a bad friend, one is a fetishist, one is hungry, and the last one is a small child, who is brought to the fore by the lady of the palace and eventually becomes the crown prince. They always dug each other's wells. Can't there be someone who is smart, well-behaved, truthful, honest, understanding, and loves his country? Unfortunately not. The man has become a prince, he treats all the servants like roosters of the coop. There isn't a woman he hasn't abused. He also behaves badly. Always being forgiven. The Crown Prince is also constantly making mistakes, making mistakes, doing evil, constantly being forgiven. A noble general is constantly robbing the state, kidnapping, making decisions against the country, trying to kill another general in the war. Even if proven, he is released and pardoned. Not once, but several times. Those who make mistakes, wrongdoers, evildoers, tricksters and scammers are constantly forgiven. The righteous are persecuted. I watched a TV show where doing something good was considered bad. I watched a series that constantly gave credit to mistakes. Not an example. It's not a show to watch. Yes, I felt it in several places. Comedy elements were also used a few times. The Sheng Brothers laughed. The princess laughed. But even the Princess ignored the benefactors who had taken care of her for her own benefit. Their accusations remained silent. So there was a righteous queen and Palace Mistress Fu in the show. The Queen deliberately made some wrong decisions, supposedly unintentionally. In other words, there is no tangible recommended part of the series. And the emperor, mashallah, turned out well. I was surprised. He also destroyed confidence in himself by constantly forgiving the crown prince and that thief general. After all, the man did evil all the time. He was killed. What about chen ji, who came to befriend the crown prince? Complained. They chased the man, eventually killing him. Instead, with the same face but supposedly different, the same actor played it. This is Fu Shui. This approached the crown prince. He ate all kinds of crap. Nobody said what he is doing next to this crown prince. He even gives orders to the soldiers. He gives orders to the servants. He directs everyone. The crown prince too. He kills anyone who gets in his way. He killed the crown princess's brother without even blinking an eye. He also had the maid killed. No one noticed this person. No one complained. No one said what's going on. Although the Crown Prince was also injured, he did not put a dust on the man. Even everything happened. This lasted until the end of the series. The man died in a fight. However, it had to be divided into a hundred parts. Nobody kills. It doesn't say what are you doing. It doesn't hinder. He was taking revenge. The man almost overthrew the emperor. With three or five marauders, but he deceived everyone. He also wanted to take revenge. We understood from here that the empire is a story. Emperor story. So lie. Princes lie. The guards lie. Armies lie. Generals lie. Everything is a lie. Put one asshole. Eliminate everyone. Dynamite the country. No one can hear the soul. It didn't happen. The screenwriter is gone. So it shook. He ruined the show. Outside of CAST, outside of management, that is, it sucks in terms of subject, terrible in terms of handling. Of course, you fit the mandatory scenario, but it could have been more beautiful, smarter, more logical, more realistic, plausible. That was his choice. I have no respect. I do not like. I found this scenario wrong and the way it was handled. The screenwriter should respect the audience. Mercy.
