WHAT YOUR LIFE PURPOSE IS?

That is the question from someone whom ML thought was his teacher. Born with white hair, in literal meaning ‘white hair’ with the meaning of life full of hardship (that's what the grand chancellor said), he embraced all of that. Most of his life is spent making a stratagem for his revenge until he can’t live for himself, and in the end, he can achieve it.

The Vendetta of An is a drama series that tells us a story of achievement in life, be it revenge, power, politics or a fulfilment of life. This is a good series for people who like to watch a revenge stories, political mind game and bloody thriller themes, but for some people who doesn’t like just avoid it, and for some people in the middle, just try to watch it, it will make you curious as to what way Huai An will take so that he, his people safe and his enemies get what they deserve, very intrigue!

ML/Huai An achieve his revenge, both brothers of Xiao family want to protect their countries, the king of tribe want a place to return that have plenty resource so his people didn’t starve and die because of harsh environment until he can’t go back to where he is come from, although he also want to conquer the world, this achievement can’t be achieved because he offend the wrong person (An with his bloody hatred), and last, Ye Zheng Brother and sister, they survived and fulfill their promise to An.

Although I do not understand the 24 stratagems he uses, if you can focus, you will catch that, and when you release, you will understand how clever and cunning Huan An is. The story begins with foreign tribes who disguise themself and enter Chang’An 20-30 years ago with their cleverness until the emperor/general/chancellor, or high official government of the country, didn’t realise it, as some of the foreign can befriend them with perfect masks. Then the foreign made internal strife in the country so that the Vengeful of An was born. Despite the hatred Xian’an had, he didn’t lose his morals as the world wronged him, like in other stories.

Story, Acting, Cast, CGI, and OST are great. Overall, for me 9,5, some parts are left unanswered, and high score partly the story itself and the acting is good (I always get distracted by Chengyi's hands and how babyfaced he is even though he is almost 36 years old).
