Forgive, Never Forget. Love and Honour.

A romantic action thriller tale of betrayal, nefarious plots and ultimately triumph of love.

Superb characterisation by ML, FL and main supportings. There will be many new acolytes of Song Zu Er just for her beautiful expressions even without considering her fabulous acting. One can literally watch the series just to see her. Usually the ML struts and poses without much acting but LYN showcased his emotional side here well. If the ML and FL set the drama tone, the supporting were the garnishings that lifted this CDRAMA to another level. You can't help but root for Wei Liang and Xiao Tao.

The pace started fast and furious. By Episode 3 one is left wondering what is there left of the story line? Then the subterfuge and scheming starts, within the family and within states, each twist and turn leads one to binge the next episode for the outcome. Both ML and FL literally lived their characters.

Great cinematography and this is one series where the OST is worth listening to for every episode instead skipping forward.
