so i start watching it and do you have recommendaton of similiar chinese drama like this one?
Have you watched 'Ever Night Season 1', 'Fu Yao', 'Yun Xi', 'An Oriental Odyssey'? Word of caution: They change the male lead for 'Ever Night' in Season 2. So if you fall in love with the male lead in season 1, you may scream your heart out later.
The current rating does not serve justice for this drama which I feel deserves better. First, the acting is wonderful. Second, the story is intriguing. Third, the setting is authentic. And there is a few more positive points for this drama. The only reason I can think of for the low rating is probably due to the ages of the male actors - they are mostly above 30s - not the young and handsome 20 something that are so prevailing in the recent dramas. Also the male lead, Mao Zi Jun has, at times, played the antagonist role which may have made him less savoring. Overall, I feel this is a good drama, so far (up to the first 10 episodes or so that I have watched). There is a lot of scheming and tension, not unlike "Nirvana in Fire" and "Secrets of 3 Kingdoms". You'll probably enjoy this drama if you have liked those 2.
What a delightful drama this is. Tons of love and care, humors. Wonderful actors. Good acting. Even Kris Sun who was so annoying in Ever Night, is so adorable in this drama. Both the male and female leads are awesome, even the supporting role played by Xing En - she is awesome. Deserves my time to watch. You may also find it relaxing after a day of hard work.
I really enjoy watching this drama despite it has a lower than expected rating. I feel it is much better than many other dramas that have higher ratings. The story is interesting, the acting is superb, especially the female lead, Ariel Lin. She may not be the prettiest girl compared to other hot actresses, but she is super cute and authentic. This drama is light hearted but not comedic (which may often look stupid and turn off audiences); so far, it makes me laugh and makes me feel good. I never realize Zhang Bin Bin (Vin Zhang), the male lead, is so good looking until this drama. His acting is not bad either. If you want some drama that makes you feel relaxed at the end of the day, this may be a good candidate. So far, after the first 11 episodes, I'm still enjoying it. Hopefully it doesn't turn into something stupid as it progresses, like many other dramas.
Both Arthur Chen and Dylan Wang exude very different personalities and aura. Arthur comes off as a big boy, innocent, and a bit uncertain of himself at times, whereas Dylan gives the feeling of a true bad ass kind of guy, fearless, mean and angry. Depending how the director wants to portray the actual Ning Que, I feel we all should give Dylan a chance. After all, after 2 years later when Season 2 debuts, we may all accept a new look of Ning Que as Arthur's face begins to fade in our mind as Ning Que.
Just finished the whole drama. I'd say the last 10 episodes are quite a let-down and the final episode a complete disaster. The story tried to build up to the climax in the last episode, but it turned out to be an anti-climax instead. There's no catharsis, and with plenty of loose ends. It gives me the feeling that the director(s) couldn't wait to pack up and dismiss everybody by the last episode. Arthur Chen portraying Ning Que was not convincing enough though I adore him greatly. No wonder the rating went down from a 9.5 (or something) to the current 8.9. I believe many viewers share my experience.
Just finished the whole drama. I'd say the last 10 episodes are quite a let-down – with the last episode a complete disappointment. I’m not talking about the ‘death’ of Sang Sang (whom I know would come back in Season 2). I’m talking about the building up of the whole story to the climax, which was very disappointing and, as I see it, a rather anti-climax, instead. There’s no epiphany; the greatest antagonist was actually not ‘that bad’ a person, and Ning Que didn’t kill him, but he terminated himself; overall, we have not experienced a catharsis. Even though there is a Season 2, normally, good dramas should end with no loose ends, and there are plenty with this drama. No wonder the rating went down from a 9.5 (or something) to the current 8.9. I believe many viewers share my experience.
I would say so if you like Chinese wuxia and calligraphy. The story is pretty interesting. The scenes are beautiful, especially the fighting scenes - they look authentic. The actors are good, despite young Arthur Chen being less seasoned, but he is truly a heartthrob.
he's rude and arrogant it’s also maybe because of the way he grew up always trying to survive and killing, it's…
I believe Arthur tried to portray Ning Que's panicky mood when he realized Sang Sang may leave him, but I think Arthur over killed a bit, making him look rude and arrogant, or maybe the Director intended him to be so? I also cannot fathom the logic that he beats Sang Sang right in front of her parents and they let him. My parents would have killed him if he had done this to me.
is this worth drama to watch? anyone plz answer me
As far as I'm concerned, yes, if you like fantasy and Chinese wuxia stories in beautiful historical costumes. This is one of the better Chinese dramas that I've come across so far.
At first I was disappointed that Arthur Chen would not act in season 2 of this drama. Now, I think maybe it's best. After watching more than half way through, Arthur really lacks the experience of a more seasoned actor. His facial expression is definitely not up to grade, despite his good look. Let's hope season 2 would give us a more convincing Ning Que.
Sigh! How should I describe this drama? Well, I really enjoyed the 1st part: the acting was good, the story was interesting, the pace was just good. Then the 2nd part was, like, ... stuffing, just to make up the rest of the episodes. The screen writer seemed to have become over-creative, and rendered the drama hard to watch. There were holes everywhere. The characters' personality was inconsistent. I almost wanted to give up this drama. Fortunately, it is not too long to complete the whole thing. I can only give it an overall 7 stars.
