Bravo! YY did wonderful in drama. Though late to the world of A Mortal’s Journey to Immortality. I spent the last weeks reading all forms of donghua, anime and manga. I have now same conclusion and feelings for live drama as die hard fans. The biggest surprise to me is not just YY new role as he’s done martial roles before. But how he allowed more vulnerablity shown. Then there is Zhao Qing, Yes if knew me from comment section. She was the coming up. She impressed me most out of all the girlies. At times I got her confused as who was who. Was she 2FL or 3FL. It was not till netizens on Weibo say she is 3FL. Her crying is some of the best I’ve seen in years. Others got annoyed but she is a huge part of his journey and life as motel becoming immortal. To cut scenes would be injustice to source material. So I enjoyed watching her scenes and her never upset he leaves only that she can not follow. Wang Duo if some not familiar with him. I suggest try Ice Fantasy, Bloody romance (wuxia drama) The blossoming love, Sword and Fairy 4 (wuxia like and base on game etc) He is incredible actor. Him and YY played well off of each others. So much you forget he is the big bad. You want them to be friends instead. All of the other supporting cast was pretty good. It was good to see Kenji Chen for just brief guest role. I do hope if for S2 We keep most of the actors. But I would love if NGW is replaced. No offense or hate to Gina. I rewatch their scenes and do banter is nice. Chemistry is hollow. It could be cuz short scenes but even in other drama. Chemistry was hollow. Howver, I think not a S2 for years unless actors agree. Some say YY signed on for 3 seasons on Weibo. So far it is the unconfirmed. But only him not anyone else. So could get whole new cast. Still whatever come be of drama I deeply enjoyed it. Action and CGI was not as bad as The land of warriors. The creatures was better than Sword and Fairy 4. So was CGI and writing. At times we had some writing editing issues. But not so badly I give up. OST has got to be favorite. Don’t ask is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard this year. Along with Moment. Then Mayfly’s will. Op theme is good too. I hope YOUKU not cheat me and give soundtrack to Apple. I have ton of Cdrama albums of favorite dramas on phone. So hope add this. I too hope instrumental is release so I have Mo Caihuan theme song. All in all, truly I lower head and bow YY you are still the 90’s flower king and even more our Han li.
