Thank you! Some of these links are still working after all this time. And one of them has slightly better subs. :)
Very effective revenge drama in which the smart, calm heroine sets the villains against each other and watches the carnage. . Meanwhile, her heroic aunt is involved in a fight for the throne. The romance--and the handsome male lead--is understated but constantly present. The acting and directing are solid. Very satisfying if you don't mind low-key and methodical rather than bloody.
I'm just happy to see Han Dong play a lead role. It's frustrating to see him play small parts when less skilled actors are given lead roles. Well, Chinese drama casting is often frustrating (for instance, poor, wasted Jeremy Tsui). I wonder if Han Dong will keep doing short dramas and if he can find a short drama style that works for him and he enjoys.
Totally agree and he got an imposing aura like with the right guidance and nurturing he could be China Humphrey…
Humphrey Bogart--you're exactly right! I wonder if the Chinese film industry is open to that kind of actor. I didn't know he had health issues; that's worrisome. I did think he looked haggard around the eyes, but I thought it might be weariness from the filming schedule.

And thank you for supplying so many links!
