Very good cast with some funny and sweet moments . BUT! The crime and investigation part, which is like 70% of the show, was very boring. How can the investigation be so sloppy and bad?, especially in a serial murder case, that it is practically insulting the viewer intelligence.
Good story, very good cast, good visual. Romance is basically only in the last two episodes, but thats not the point of the show anyway. The revenge was actually what kept me interested. Overall, I recommend to watch the first 2-3 episode, and if you dont like it, then drop. Majority of the main characters wont change or go through any big development, some side characters do tho.
Lighthearted show, with very mature FL character and "mostly" mature ML character. Great main lead cast and very good side characters. The story was interesting to watch once and a lot of the plot was kind of on the nose. I can imagine how I would not be very interested in watching this show after a few episodes, if I didnt have experience playing tennis myself on a competitive level. All in all this was a good drama to binge watch with a mellow almost boring ending.
It was a "okay" one time watch. There are a lot great life lessons, for certain situations, for me tho it got frustrating to watch in the end, because of how much of a circlejerk the relationship between the two main character has become. Also one of the ost was kind of nice.
I liked the atmosphere and the music a lot, and I could relate to most of the first half. The second half and the end... that I am probably too stupid to understand.
This would have been so good if they just made a lot of dark humor/comedy, mythic, romance with a pinch of thriller. But noooooo, it was one of those one 15 min moment gets stretched over 16 hours with everybody turning into clueless potatoes.
I guess it’s not worth wasting my time on it then?
I like Dilraba and the characters she plays, if you like someone from the cast, then I would at least try watching . Drop it if it gets boring, or just fast forward/skip, like I did.
boring end, a bunch of fillers, no romance - only teasing, good action scenes, good acting, fun beginning, smart main characters becoming stupid proportionally to the progression of the drama.
This was fun to watch at the start, with a lot of silly moments, but got increasingly exhausting watching it to the end, with the story moving to the ridiculous forced war part, plot became boring.
You cant judge the role at the initial episodes. Even at episode 1 he was already showing empathy to the old guy…
Like I said, I really like the dark atmosphere, and especially the fighting scenes, so the wuxia part is actually what I liked, and the other genre and tags are actually just up my alley if you look at my profile stats. I watched 5 episodes tht is already 20% of the entire series... the initial episodes is where the characters and backstory get introduced, if that takes up even more than 1/5 of the whole drama, then this is definitely way to slow pace. Also to point out, long converstions and everybody talks veeeery slow, except for Zi Shang ( which I really enjoyed the comedy parts of). This is okay for some scenes, but very overplayed (almost unnatural) when almost every conversation is like that. The idea was probably to portray the characters as wise and deep thinking, calculating every step kind of way, but this got them nowhere.
The part of Zi Yu protecting the brides is especially stupid. This is basically going against your family, precisely because he got the information that there is a assassin among them. They are all outsiders that potentially come from the Wu Feng faction ( which our Zi Yu baby is of course oblivious to this fact, because he somehow didint give a damn about his clan affairs, that is probably the last and strongest faction, literally living surrounded by poison on a mountain (how badass is that?) ). So our hornyboy shows them empathy, because it would be a tragedy if one of the potential assassins might die, but somehow its okay if they kill one or two people in his clan, what a good boy prince he is. Not immediately telling his father, the head of the clan about this. Does Zi Yu think he is smarter than the head of the clan, and all the elders that let those girls in? Does he actually think he can outsmart the frigging Wu Feng and find the assassin ???? holy cow.. sometimes ppl confuse stupidity with empathy.
