This timeless classic

This show has never failed me. It was my introduction to cdrama and I will never forget the feeling of waiting for the next eps to drop on YouTube. I have watched it probably 3 times and I still listen to the sound track. The world building of this drama is so good and the characters have depth and personality. Wei wuxian and lan zhan are a match made in heaven. This drama has it all the yearning, angst, happiness, sadness, family lore, sibling relationships, teachers, students, lessons. It feels like a journey. You get to know the characters in diff arcs of their life and get to see why people can change and how life affects everyone. I absolutely love it. Looking back since it’s been like 6-7 years since I first watched the show, I can find flaws here and there but it still remains a timeless classic to me.

It started getting repetitive and borning.
