Masterpiece and chef kiss!
The best revenge drama everrrrrr!!!The plot twists within twists will make you hook this drama.
No romance at all and this makes the drama more appeal to watch as that is unnecessary to drive the plot unlike other dramas.
The climax starts from Episode 1 to till the end. No boring scenes at all and no climax down like other dramas. Fast pacing but there’s no cut scenes.
This script writer is the best! He/she knows how to write it.
Acting? You know it’s Cheng Yi. Trust him. The best ever. All supporting actors are also great.
The directing needs a little improvement as some scenes deserve the memorable visuals like trademarks of the drama but there’s little to none.
Overall, watch it. I bet you would also love it.

Watch this after the drama is finished! if not, the waiting for episodes is hell.
I was a manhwa fan. At first, I was worried how the drama would turn out as the adaption drama story line and manhwa/novel story line are tend to be different. I’m not worried about the actors’ acting tho. They have already proved their acting with their previous works.But when it aired, I love it! The drama gave more solid reason for Sol being a fan of Seon Jae and tried fo save him.
But I didn’t expect that in drama story line, Seon Jae fall Sol first. It seems that drama and manhwa/novel have only core similarity like time slip and FL tries to save ML.
The chemistry between leads are so superb that I fall in love with this cp.
I give this 10 out of 10.
As I said, because the drama is so good, you should wait for all episodes. I’m here regretting that I watched it as soon as they aired as the waiting for next episode is hell. :’)

So worth to watch!
This is chef kiss!Awesome scenes, great chemistry between all actors, unexpected first grade comedy scenes and lines and no awkward or boring to watch!
I can’t pick out any fault in this drama. That’s how it’s good.
Acting, CGI, scenes, music, how the story told is perfect.
I love that viewers can’t predict how the characters will act out in the next scene. They never fail in making me laugh out loud.
Highly recommended to watch!

it’s fun to watch
This drama is cute and funny.I laugh out loud in first episode because I did not expect that comedy scene of closing credits.
I was not a fan of Esther Yu, because in her previous dramas especially her famous one with dylan wang, her acting of cuteness and voice is so cringe to watch. But in here, I think she tone down her way of acting cute and that’s why it became natural and isn’t cringe at all. I love her in this drama.
For yu xi, he is always one of the best.
The plot is really fun to watch and no boring at all. Chemistry between the leads is awesome.

Worth to watch. The best cinematography and CGs.
I have been waiting for this drama since its trailer is released. The actings are superb especially Neo, ML. He is so different in here as he always acted bubbly characters. So it’s refreshing to see his another side. All actors and actresses have chemistry. No one is left out.As the story wise, FL is so weak (who doesn’t possess power if she doesn’t have tool) except her goddess identity, I don’t think she deserves FL position. She has her good points tho. She is calm, rational, doesn’t always stay on the side of humans, empathize on some good demons, not blinded by emotions and knows how to handle love and hate. Maybe that’s why she became FL. Love the actress tho. It’s Chen Duling’s acting skill that FL is not hated and too annoying to watch.
The best point is the scenes! This kind of cinematography, using dark tone is rare to see in Chinese dramas. CGs are so amazing.
The story is fast pacing, not boring and fun to watch. But a little hypocrite from the side of humans.
Recommended to watch this.

A healing drama
This slice of life drama is really comforting to watch.But of course, some plots are a little bit annoying to watch such as,
FL - easily forgive the framer even tho her whole life is nearly destroyed and not standing up for herself.
ML - not much character development.
Second ML - unnecessary plot from my pov.
FL’s mother - close mouthed about her bff death, never confront ML’s father for years and she even made the whole family also felt guilty for ML’s mother weather related death.
ML’s father - his way of hatred on FL family is too childish and too nonsense (that I can’t even watch his scenes) and forgiveness is too sudden.
But overall, this drama is light hearted to watch from heavy plot dramas.

I am disappointed by how the story is told because of bad script.
I’m a fan of Bai Lu and Ao Rui Peng and I’ve been highly anticipated and waiting for this drama since casting. Because of trailers, I had high expectations for this.But i have to admit that it’s not worth the wait sadly.
Both actors are great. Ao Rui Peng is a little bit off from character at first but he did great in later episodes. Bai Lu is awesome as usual and all supporting characters are also great.
The problem lies in script. Although it’s fact pacing, the comedy lines and scenes the writer putting are awkward. The chemistry between the leads off screen is good normally but because of script, it feel forced on screen. Also there’s so much background music even tho some scenes are not needed it. The story looks like forced to go on.
The directing is second problem. As for xianxia drama, it’s bad.
No memorable scenes, no climax scenes, no captivating writing (story) and it became boring to watch.
As a fan of both lead actors, it’s so sad to see the drama boring and flat (at least for me) even tho it’s S+ production.

You won’t regret watching this!
This is one of the best modern dramas.As a fan of novel, Bai Jing Ting and Zhang Ruo Nan are amazing to bring the characters alive. Their on screen chemistry is also fire.
Just because it’s Sang Yan’s story, you won’t get the same vibe of HL which is sunshine and fluffy, it’s more like the vibe of slowly healing from sad, gloomy trauma of fl and longing of ml.
As for fans of vibrant, strong willed Fl, you will be a little disappointed because this FL is timid and shy, a little detach, a little gloomy because she has fear of rejection, avoidant, thinks she is unworthy of love and doesn’t deserve good things due to abandonment from her mother, emotional abuse from her relatives, suffered SA every place she went/stay and malicious rumors from her school, work place. So you need a little patience to see her opening up to ml, trying herself to come out of shell to believe in love and to be with ml. (She was distancing herself from ml as he is the best thing ever happened to her and she didn’t believe she deserves ml.)
ML is greenest forest ever. He never forced FL to come to him. He tried to understand her and respected every decision she made even tho it breaks him. He is just waiting patiently and longing silently for her. He is the medicine for fl.
I am loving the story by far.
And the scenes are OMG…. The diary like story telling, episode titles, ml’s pov at the end of every episode are amazing.
The storytelling is superb. It’s so well executed.

Refreshing xianxia drama among cliché xianxia dramas.
The characters are so funny, lovable and relatable especially FL’s laziness at least for me.ML is not a good person to sacrifice himself to save the world just because he received kindness from FL nor FL is not trying to persuade him to be a good person when she saw he killed other people. FL believes ml has his reasons to kill even tho she kind of hates killing. That’s is one of the refreshing points from other dramas as they didn’t make FL as Virgin Mary.
The plot has full of unexpected funny scenes, lines and relatable povs.
The acting of lead actor and actress is sooo good. Chen fei yu and wang ying lu became my fav bias that I will catch their upcoming dramas from now on.
They have explosive chemistry (and of course off screen CP Candy is more sweet) and there are so many kiss scenes which are not lusty and greasy like other dramas. Their kisses are full of romantic and sensual that good to watch.
The pace is fast but a bad point is the arc of demon realm because it’s unnecessary too long and some characters are not needed for plot wise while the final human realm arc and ending is rush.
But overall, it’s a good drama which has unexpected refreshing scenes which makes it different from cliche xianxia dramas.

Can’t stand the FL character.
FL is just plain rude and immature. She should pretend nice to ml at least but no, she seems like she has superior complex. I accept that she has a prejudice against rich ppl (according to plot) but the thing is although she knew she was wrong when the truth revealed, she doesn’t want to admit her mistake and just throw the blame on ML, not sorry for her wrong judgement on innocent citizen, and makes everyone isolates ML and kicks him out of the team makes me want to drop this.ML is typical ml in kdramas so far. And also the plot doesn’t seem unique.

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.
