Could Have Been Better!!
This was one of those shows that starts interestingly, takes a nosedive in the middle and ends in a surprisingly weird way!
I’m a huge fan of Zhang Yu Xi, especially her historical dramas, so it isn’t a surprise that I was going to watch this show. The storyline pans across two different lifetimes and the 40 episodes project the main couple in an ill-fated relationship. The fact that them being together could bring catastrophe to the world is a whole new conundrum. And even though, the male lead primarily focuses on the wellbeing of common people, his love for the female lead mostly clouds his judgements. Frankly, both of them are kind of obsessed with each other, so you can’t just blame one person. It does get tiring in the second half where both leads make questionable choices because of each other. Watching them act dumb despite the fact that they are both smart and intellectual was boring. But the storytelling is quite addictive, so it makes you sit around and take notice. Except for that annoying obsessive Demon Lord who keeps pinging on your radar and you just want him gone forever!
