Rich, layered, beautiful tapestry of a production

This is an absolute rich, layered, beautiful tapestry of a production. I am smitten by the landscapes, direction and cinematography with such subtle angles that there is a movie like quality which only Chinese cinema can deliver. When you get the right acting talent who are not only both gorgeous to look at, but also pack a solid punch both as actors and as characters in the story, there is no doubt the drama is off to a fantastic start!! I am personally disturbed by the butchering parts of it but grin and bear it by covering my eyes as it is a significant part of FL's character design and lends heavily to her extraordinary skills, as one may discover in the first 7 episodes. Xi Wei has a strong presence. Meanwhile, ML is all demure and mysterious, yes please we have been waiting to see ZLH on screen again for a very long time so Hell yeah!!!! Both are well matched, so hats off to the casting as well! Highly recommend.

Drama aesthetics and actor face cards 💯
