Beautiful Drama Happy/Sad Ending Depending on how you look at it
A moment but forever has been a magical journey and I must say that the Fantasy aspect of this drama was just phenomenal from the graphics, to the costumes, to the different story plots... sometimes even feeling like it was a Disney movie...
Ji Tan Yin was a very loveable female lead talented in the art of craft hence why she was the God of craft...
Yuan Zhong is a high priest and also holds immense power and position in the drama as male lead.. They both have great chemistry and I think that their love story was also something that was developed pretty well.. The build up of everything was just wonderful...
I think anyone who likes Action Romances and Fantasy will definitely love this drama!
I am bias to Liu Xueyi because he's one of my favorite Chinese actors for Traditional dramas and I find that he never disappoints... much like Dylan Wang.. He deserves an award for his acting and being able to get very emotional and vulnerable with his roles....
Additionally from being a seasoned Traditional/ Fantasy Drama watcher.. I would say that alot of the creative plots are inspired by The Chinese Mythology and what they believe in so that being said.. I'll move into the spoiler aspect of my review which entails me explaining the ending of this drama to those who are not that familiar with the Chinese Mythology.....
SPOILER!
For me I would say that its both a happy and sad ending for everyone... Second lead couple also didn't really end up together because his lover grew old and while he remained an immortal...
Ji Tan Yin died in the ending of the drama due to old age and the fact that she removed her devine bone ( which identified her as a God ) which now she is no longer.. So she dies from old age however that's not after they got to spend a number of years together, I had to Rewatch part of the episode to confirm this.. there's a part where male second lead writes to his lover and he said that it had been years since he's been exploring and seeing the world as she did.. then they switched to main leads... and thats when female lead looked a bit tired and a little older and then she died at the very end from old age so hence why its not really a sad ending because they got to spend years together first before dying a natural death and hes immortal thats why he lived on, also throughout the drama she kept telling him that no matter what happens she will always find a way to come back to him.. and she told him that when he sees the butterflies and dragonflies etc just know thats its her...
A little while after her physical death... Yuan Zhong was visited by one of the Gods from the heavenly realm where they asked him to ascend to heaven and become a god... ( Chinese believe that humans can become gods based upon their deeds on earth ) and he also told him that Ji Tan Yin is still alive.. ( Her predominal spirit that is ) They also believe in reincarnation so basically because he is now going to become a God... He now has the power to re create her because of the fact that her predominal spirit is still alive... it ended where a dragon fly landed on his hand and the god told him that he can definitely meet her again and he said he agreed and the show ended.... So when he becomes a god he will more than be able to recreate her and bring her back to a fleshly form and so they can be together again....
This is a Fantasy Drama and these plots can go in all kinds of crazy directions but understanding how their history works can help explain the endings.... because it might appear to be a sad ending but in reality it really isn't... he's going to re create her shortly after becoming a god.... and to be fair... she died a million times in this drama while being a god and came back to life because of her said ( Predominal Spirit being alive ) so he can more than revive her ! And lets not forget they did spend a number of years together before she grew old and died....
Overall I give this drama 5 Stars 🌟
And acting and cast was 5 Stars 🌟 as well ... no complaints...
