A little disappointed in ML’s acting.

Story is still good as rumors.
(I’ve watched it all. Here’s my edited review.)
Directing and CGI is good.
But for CGI, Dashing Youth is better in my pov.
Edited : Because in some episodes CGI is amazing but in some, CGI feels cheap.
The main point is Gong Jun’s acting. Even tho I highly anticipated for this drama because of him, his acting is off. Even cameo actor in DY could be seen as SMY but I can’t see him as Su Mu Yu. I’m his fan but I have to accept that. I hope his acting will get better in later episodes. Edited : I still couldn’t see him as SMY except in fight scenes. He is cool in action scenes. And I found out why I can’t see him as SMY till the final ep is because his way of speech is too stiff in my pov. Gong Jun can act as cold guy but not quiet guy. SMY isn’t cold. He is quiet and gentle that he was mistaken as a scholar at first sight not as a killer according to novel. Gong Jun can’t completely catch the essence of quiet gentlemanly manner in my pov. But overall, he can get a pass as he is so cool in fight scenes.
Second ML Chang Hua Sen is awesome. His acting is really good that he overshadow Gong Jun, the ML. Edited : He is so amazing! He can act! Really his aura is overwhelm 1st ML that I wish that he is 1st ML in some scenes. I’ve become his fan. It’s a pity that we can’t see his fight scenes much. His action scenes are too few.
Still it’s enjoyable to watch so far as so many action/fight scenes since the beginning of the story. I hope it will get better. Edited : It became better!
Even tho it’s still 5 eps, if you are a fan of fight scenes, watch it.
I’ll edit this later when the drama is finished.
Edited : Watch it if you love action scenes. But don’t expect any romances as it mainly focus on bromance and romance is just a little sprinkle.
