Chen Xiao was pretty good, the only person that kept me watching I thought his portrayal of Yang Guo to be pretty good though I don't really know the other portrayals of this character. Li Mo Chou, Huang Rong and Guo Jing were the only interesting support characters.
Everyone else was just irritating, annoying, selfish, makes no sense, flat and just random! It was just endless introductions of beautiful women with no specific purpose or role in the series. Most important of all Michelle Chen as Xiang Long Nu was just a terrible terrible decision. With the endless sea of beautiful women in this series they decided on Michelle. Xiao Long Nu is meant to be otherworldly but Michelle is plain. Okay fine if her acting was up on point but nope. Isn't she a wulian master...why is she portrayed as so feeble and useless!?! Michelle just couldn't pull of the air of mastery that her character should possess instead she's like a doll being pull here and there without any thought or opinion, the character and Michelle was just bad in every way.
It's such a shame i really wanted to like this with it being my first time watching ROCH, I thought this had so much potential but ruined with bad casting, poor storyline (with millions of millions of plot holes), and lacking support characters.
I've always found Toma's acting to be stereotypically over-the-top and childish. But he really really proved me wrong this time. His acting was extremely mature and real. Raw and heartbreaking. Loved him in this.
And another. This is one of thoses dramas you'll never forget because it's just soooo beautifully made.
Wow read on wiki that is will be filmed over 8 years....wonder how they'll do it and if it'll be the same cast cause so far from the trailers and other dramas I'm liking the cast!

I just wish there was more of an ending...
