A great fantasy romance
Love in the Clouds is the kind of fun, easy-to-watch chinese fantasy romance that I live for. The plot isn't overly complicated, and the romance is just as important to the story as the conflict.
While they began with deception, the lead couple has a wonderful relationship of mutual respect and admiration. Lu Yuxiao and Hou Minghao have some of the best chemistry I've seen in cdramaland. This couple is so good, that even with their abundant screen time, I still wished for more!
My 1 gripe with the storyline, and it is a rather big one, is the arc of the 2nd male lead. An arc we've seen in many many of cdramas through the years, that I have never cared for. The evolution of the character does not do justice to the 2ml we first met in the early episodes.
It was also evident at times that scenes were cut, and certain plot points were rushed. CGI was about average for a chinese TV budget - I've seen cleaner.
Still, this drama managed to keep a nice pacing and immersive, logical tale.
This is a must-watch (and re-watch) drama.
