I don't know bout y'all but it's enjoyable. Lol. The plot seems a bit slow, I was expecting the marriage to happen sort of instantly but 6 episodes in and we get no way near that. Case wise is pretty standard, I like where it's going so far. The OSTs is nice and the costumes standard. The castings seems to be acting just fine and to their characters, the characters on the other hand could've been written better but there isn't anything else other than that. The only thing I find ify was trying to pair our leads together. You see our male lead getting paired with Liang Jie so often that you just can't imagine him with someone else especially someone like our female lead who mind you I'm still hung up on cause she paired so well with Hu Yi Tian. So that will take some time getting used to but I like our second couple and a potential 3rd couple if I'm right with where we're headed. I'm looking forward to moving further into the story and seeing where the ending will lead to.
I remember watching him in Dear Herbal Lord and found him so familiar until I looked through his work and found he casted in The Untamed. Lol. He definitely needs more costume dramas.
So I binged watched this for two days straight. And I'm happy to say I'm satisfied. I'll classify this as a somewhat light hearted drama just with a more serious tone to it. The plot is unique in itself as I've never really watch these type of dramas. The actors did an amazing job with portraying their characters in my opinion. The characters written though could've been better but like I said it satisfies. The costumes was perfect but the CGI needed better work. Osts was very beautiful and an ending that leaves me feeling refreshed. The only thing I'm confused about was the male lead's said 'retribution' in love as we all know he was sent down to defeat God of Plague and not anything else, not sure if I missed something. Overall, pretty nice, would recommend. Oh yes, not to mention, the very sweet scenes, especially the kissing scenes lol. The male lead could kiss alright. I was surprised because this was my first time watching this dude, he nailed everything down.
hi! I am wondering if this drama has those like annoying love triangle or their parents disproved their relationship?…
Uh... Yes and no? The male lead had a childhood friend who was sort of hung up on her love for him but both our male lead and female lead handled it just fine. It did get a bit annoying with the schemes she was doing but honestly it wasn't too bad. Mother in law didn't really express too much satisfaction for female lead in the beginning but she didn't really disapprove of it either, you'll end up loving her more and more throughout the episodes though, lol.
I've watched bits and pieces of her in The Sleepless Princess and found her so familiar but couldn't pin point where. Should've known she's the main lead in The Mysterious World lol.
I actually quite like it. Of course the plot could've been better, but it's generally more oustanding than season 1. I know some people didn't like the fact that the male lead did technically cheat on his 'wife' but honestly, I really didn't think all too much about it as she IS she and it was meant to play out like that. The acting seems to have stayed the same as to season 1, there were some scenes that didn't make sense, at least to me anyway, I think it was probably due to some editing error they did and it made the final cut. Filming, costumes were nice and the osts stayed the same as season 1 which I like as it created that same vibe and nice flow to the drama. Overall, I'm generally looking forward to watch season 3.
I think the plot was nice. Honestly everything was great. The music, scenes, the characters themselves. I've seen where people were coming from with the last 4 episodes but honestly I understood it and why it was obviously needed. The acting especially for the male lead was also surprising, (& done well) after seeing him in Princess Agent (which he did nail down as a bodyguard). Overall, I wouldn't classify this as your everyday time traveling drama nor was it lighthearted or heavy in its plot. Just get ready to be overwhelmed with a bunch of kissing scenes (which was enjoyable don't get me wrong) more than usual in these sort of dramas.
:0 I don't know how to react with this. Usually she's a female lead actor type. I hope she didn't get the lead role. (Not a personally attack lol, we all know we want Zhao Lusi to reprise her role).
I think that the original cast will be used, after scrolling through weibo I have seen all people say that they…
To me, I like to think it's also to do with the cast's schedule. If Tencent was really paying attention, the success turnout of The Eternal Love was also halfly due to the fact that the main leads especially came back to reprise their roles and I think back then season 2 became so popular mainly because of it too so I'm expecting Tencent to at least be more demanding in the OG casts returning if they want to be more profitable and gain viewers and whatnot. Ding Yuxi doesn't look like to have many things going on so I'm completely not worried cause I think he WILL come back but Zhao Lusi does. She's apparently filming a drama right now and scheduled in for another in September so depending on how things go, she might have to jump between filming (which she has done before so I'm not that worried) if she does reprise her role and if filming starts around the same time, worse case scenario she probably won't come back if things conflict obviously. What I'm hoping is that with the timing this announcement was released, and to finalizing the casts would be long enough for these two to clear out their schedule to film this which we can sort of assume to be sometime late this year and by then Zhao Lusi's schedule shouldn't be too hectic. Only time can tell from now on out at this point.
I admit, when this first aired, I was hesitant to jump on it because of the synopsis. Thus, I only watched this now as I didn't have any dramas lining up this period and decided I was just going to go in for it without much thought. By the first few episodes I was still meh but as it got into the 10s and 15s episodes I found myself so captivated by the plot. The characters was the usual set up but they were neithertheless entertaining to watch as they were unique unlike most characters. I can't comment on any CGI/affects they did cause I wasn't focus on that nor actually seeing anything so. But the film tech was quite great though some scenes had awkward cuts which was a pain to see as it obviously doesn't go well with the transition but honestly overall a nice, I wouldn't say 'light hearted' nor 'heavy' drama, with some great OSTs. I think the actors did amazingly, to the best of their abilities during filming, and on screen too was perfect. The ending for me at least wasn't too satisfying. It was 'enough' to get by and trust me it made me super happy (I cried too lol), but it was also lacking. Perhaps if they had a more extended ending I would've enjoyed the conclusion a bit more. Edit: Tencent had also announced that there will a season 2 so that would've explain the ending.
Yuan Hao was also casted in Tientsin Mystic 2. His role was quite minor but I think it showed a short side to his versatility as a 'villian'. He's Liu Chengmao in the drama.
