Intriguing plot, beautiful sets & costumes, and actors who are eye candy
I loved this show. It was visually stunning and emotionally intriguing. There's something for everyone--mystery; plot twists; riveting fight scenes; romance; beautiful people, costumes, sets, and scenery; and a satisfactory ending that makes sense.
Characters:
I loved the characters of both the ML and the FL! The FL remains physically strong and brilliant throughout the drama. It was so refreshing to watch a physically strong FL who protected the ML because he didn't have a martial arts background. I adored the character of the ML! He is comfortable in his own skin & confident enough to let the FL take the lead. But he also contributes to solving the mysteries with his intellect and expertise.
Actors/Acting:
Bai Lu didn't disappoint with her portrayal of a strong, independent, and intelligent woman who is haunted by her past. I have to give kudos to Wang Xing Yue because I had to do a double take considering how different his character was in The Double. I knew it was the same actor, but he seemed like a different person. Added bonus: the leads are eye candy.
High production value:
You can tell they had a large budget through the details of the sets, costumes, and world-building.
Music:
Haunting.
Rewatch value: High
