Perfect
Damn... I've just finished this drama and I already want to watch again and probably will cuz I don't think I'll find something better anytime soon.
Moonlight Mystique has me hooked from the 1st ep. I'm big fan of Bai Lu acting but it was the 1st time for me watching Ao Rui Peng and damn - he delivered and I can't wait to see his upcoming productions.
I'm not even sure where to start with this review cuz I loved everything - story, acting, music, costumes and scenography - all of it was top-notch and memorable.
Nevertheless, the most important thing about Moonlight Mystique is that it's the most wholesome wuxia drama I've seen. Ofc I haven't seen all of them, probably even missed some popular ones, but with other ones I've already watched I always struggled with one thing - their plot starts to drag on in 2nd half and leads encounters one conflict after another, drifting apart and being unable to properly communicate and choosing to suffer alone. BUT you won't find this here and is the thing I love the most about this drama.
Bai Shou and Fan Yue, even when starting as enemies, are pretty honest with each other - they don't avoid talking about their needs, feelings, fears and doubts. Their journey is far from easy one, but they always face every life-and-death situation together, never doubting themselves and their relationship. They both grow, not only as a couple, but also as individuals, bringing the best in each other.
Besides really healthy relationship between our leads I want to say that chemistry between them is mind-blowing - I swear, this drama has the most beautiful, passionate and heartbreaking kissing scene I've ever seen. I literally could see all their emotions and I think it's my favourite scene from whole drama and damn, Bai Shou really rocked in this, showing her inner strength despite all circumstances.
Other thing I love about this drama is that it shows that world it's not only black and white - the biggest sinner can found compassion and kindness in their heart, the good person can went astray and turn villain. Destiny isn't predetermined, we choose our path and who we want to become. In Moonlight Mystique we meet many morally grey characters and learn that not everything is as simple as it looks at the 1st glance.
I'm not good with writing long reviews and I can't exactly put my thoughts into words, but I would like to encourage everyone to give this drama a shot. It's really beautiful, touching and interesting from the beginning till the end - defo becoming my top one, so just watch it and I hope you will love it as I do!
