I need to talk to Johnny Huang's manager

I never dreamt that one day I will write a comment before watching all 30 episodes of a drama but ever since the poster came out and the list of leads was published I knew it will not make it to 8.0 ratings..

I love Johnny,He was my first cdrama actor and he will always top my list but ever since "Love designer" the casting directors have let him down with FLs except maybe "Bright eyes in the dark"

Johnny is one of those actors who have a niche that he does well and in recent years he has really done amazing projects around, military,police and fire fighters.. Someone made a funny comment that Huang Jingyu is few episodes away from being registered into the Chinese National Police 😂
He is at the point whereby without adding Romance tag he can hold his head and lead a story.
The problem of this drama lies entirely on trying to mix tropes that will be a piece of gabbage if they are together..
Let's assume this would work,at least pick a good female lead who is not one dimensional,who does have one facial expression and a messy hairdo..
I know aesthetic might be a minor issue here but it still plays a big role in the psychology of the viewer..

Unfortunately or fortunately Johnny has build his physic and aura that call for him to play strong characters mainly in uniform or some type of law enforcement and I hope he can stick to that..

The only Historical K-drama that leads don't die...well almost

I have been tiptoeing around historical dramas due to the bad ending..the last one made me sob like a little baby..But lo and behold here we are.
it's my first drama by the famous Kim Soo Hyun of the popular Queen of tears,after watching him though it's in his younger years(2012) I understand now why he is loved by all..He is that good.. especially emotional scenes..
Overall I really liked it..it has the usual sad parts of historical dramas but at least we only lost a good person..I will leave at that without spoiling the plot
