Its a casting issue, both actors act really well but there is absolutely no way Wang Shengdi grows up into Ni…
Sounds like some writing issues as well. I’m used to the aging disparities. They can be overlooked when the story is tight and compelling. Thanks for another great review!
YES!! The fight choreographer/coordinator absolutlely deserves all the acolades.
I thought the choreographer, actors, and stuntmen worked so well together. And they didn’t rely on gimmicks to make the fights look good. And someone finally showed the consequences of grabbing a knife blade, although there probably should have been more damage regardless of how tough the pad of his hand was. But kudos to whoever designed the fights.
"The show cycles through escalation: threats, confrontations, retaliation. It’s efficient. Almost too efficient." I said nearly the same thing in my review. lol It was like the writers had a big white board with these things written on it as their outline!

If you haven’t enjoyed Zhou’s performances before this would probably not change your mind.
Thanks for the support. I had braced myself to be run off MDL for not scoring it higher. 😄 And tyvm for the gift. 🦋💕
You can watch it here with alternating English dub and Mandarin with subs. Poor visual quality.
