The last one or two episode ruined it for me!! The last one was so bad as if the director had left early (totally out of character/theme/style). But the ending of the story was the worst. Just WHY????? It COULD have been a 9 for me.
I didn't (totally) hate this but omg Woo Do Hwan romance acting was SOOO awful! I LOVED him in other dramas but... I think he never dated... I honestly was confused because I thought his sweetly fake smile SHOULD look fake but then I figured this isn't supposed to be a the faking part anymore... But it still looked.. well FAKE. In the beginning I thought it was on purpose :-))
It is said to be and exciting plot but why is there no Wuxia, Thriller, Action or even Drama in the genres??? Not even Mystery or Suspense? But this is the best looking C-drama trailer I have ever seen. Hm... Ten Miles Of Peach Blossoms had also a 9.1 and I was bored to death (with the SLOW plot) and the annoying romance (which I was absolutely not into). But it`s few action scenes where one of the best I ever seen (finally convincing fight choreos). My favorite cdrama romances are Legend of Fu Yao (but NOT in the beginning) and Princess Agents. Hm.... ?????????
I am through ... and still alive! Thought I would be bored (and annoyed) to death. This is certainly one of my least favorite dramas ever. Slowest pace ever. And most of the things that happened felt so unnecessary. What was the point of SO many stupid, jealous, naive, twisted, delusional women? I really hate how they were so a big part in this one! Don't get me wrong I loved the main character or better Yang Mi`s performance. I liked the world. I almost always liked the soundtrack. There were some other characters I like too but they (with exception of Feng Jiu) where only ever on the side lines and not given much journey. My emotional reaction to the main romance story: Just leave her alone, back off! It felt awkward and boring. Their falling in love felt just... it was entirely driven on by him. I didn't like HIM that much honestly. Not that smart and selfish in the beginning. And the Ghost Lorde lover boy was almost entirely pathetic. Till the end - then he was just stupid. The animations and colors almost always look too fake. Even though there were some really beautiful frames in between. Not sure if I regret watching this. I had a love-hate + boredom relationship with this one. One last conclusion for the romance: If I would have watched this in my early teens (and found it believable somehow) I would have thought "Love is just pathetic and makes people go stupid"! If it was a book I would have thrown it in the trash! I certainly don't understand the 9.1 I find it just a little bit better than Journey of Flower.
It’s a happy ending but not quite satisfying for some viewers.
I am half through and I am wondering how it got the 9.1 The plot is so slow and I don't like the romances at all (at least the ones of the main character). I liked Legend of FuYao a lott more so far.

Or is the beginning the best thing about it.
(Compared to what it could have been.)

But oh man I am sooo bored, can't wait for this!
Princess Agents had an open ending that is the only disappointing thing (as long as there is no S2)
The plot is so slow and I don't like the romances at all (at least the ones of the main character). I liked Legend of FuYao a lott more so far.
