"through generations, jianghu is always there."

This drama is getting a lot of hate that it does not deserve. After 37 episodes

Firstly characters, Cai Zhao actually just might be one of my favorite characters ever. Free-spirited, smart, and lovable girl who doesn't have a care in the world. I have begged the gods for a type of FL like this and I finally got one. Next, lets just talk about the cast, This is my first time watching Bao Shang'en and she did so so well as Cai Zhao like I said. I feel like she was perfectly casted for this role. I also LOVE zhou yiran in MQY's role he looks SO good here. This is my first time watching Bao Shang'en and she did so so well. I kept seeing people say how they had no chemistry, but I honestly disagree especially after watching BTS, they are so cute together but I do see how this is a CP some ppl wouldn't invest in.

Okay, the music for this drama is so good, especially “清风醉(the episode ending music)” it makes me wanna go outside and enjoy life. The cutscenes in the middle with Cai Pingshu and her friends fits this so well and idk listening to this song just makes me happy. Now story, so personally the story is so so good, but I have to agree with some of the comments that the script writers kind of butchered parts of it, however its nothing thats too bad. I think it definitely could have been written a little better. Also the editing, it got a little better by the end but genuinely this drama needs new editors, I do agree with this but it wasn't bad to the point where I couldn't understand what was happening.

Other than that I 100% recommend this drama, one of my fav watches of 2026 so far!

"I would brave any storm to save you.."

This is probably the top contender for my genuine favorite drama I have ever watched.
If your hesitating about watching this stop reading and go watch it right now, I promise you will not regret it.

Just to set the record straight I didn't read the novel before diving into this drama and had no prior knowledge.

This is genuinely one of my favorite dramas of all time in all aspects. Lets first talk about the storyline, its a perfect mix of angst, love, and laughter, I think thats also what made me fall so deeply in love with this drama. I experienced so many emotions watching this, cried with Mingyi, laughed with 27 and Master She, and so much more. There was also so many romantic scenes which made this even better. Acting wise this cast played everything off perfectly. Hou Minghao has gradually become one of my favorite actors after this drama, his acting has improved so much and lets not even talk about how good looking he is especially in this drama. Lu Yuxiao also did such a good job as Mingyi and her acting is so underrated. The chemistry between all the leads were insane. Okay now when I tell you this was one of the best OST's ive ever heard I mean it 100%. The intro song and both HMH and LYX OSTs I was playing while doing everything. I'm so in love with this OST its insane like I don't know if I will ever move on. Rewatch value 1000/10, this drama deserves all the hype and imo it deserves more. I have nothing bad to say about this drama at all, im in love with every one of the characters and I do not want to leave my parents Mingyi and Ji bozai behind. This was also the first drama I watched while it aired, so I stayed up until midnight every day waiting for the next episode, I hope this shows how good it was.

P.S. the ending with pictures of the cast during filming was so cute, I am so sad that its over and the pictures only make me not want to leave them behind even more. I've never felt so attached to a drama so maybe thats why I actually started tearing up when it ended.
P.P.S special shoutout to Yanxiao and Tianji they were so cute

The Most Beautiful Drama Ever "Pursuit of Jade"

This drama has been lifechanging and I mean it.

I finished this drama ago but was suffering from post-drama depression that I never wrote this review. It was that good, I literally couldn't watch anything else for days.

Lets start off with the Actors/Characters, Fan Changyu is hands down one of my favorite cdrama characters ever. Shes strong, resilient, kind, stands up for herself, and is independent. She doesn't need a man to do what she wants, and the fact that Xie Zheng respects that and only wants to be her partner makes the dynamic SO GOOD. I was not really skeptical of Tian Xiwei playing Fan Changyu because she played a somewhat similar character in Moonlit Reunion and rocked the girl boss vibe. Zhang Linghe I knew would absolutely play this role well, as it fits him so well. Their chemistry was also blazing, both of them can create chemistry with trees at this point especially ZLH. As for side characters, first special shout out to Lin Muran because He playing Su Yuanqing SO SO well. For a rising actor he played the psychopath to perfection. I'm deeply awaiting his new works now. Kong Xueer playing Qian Qian also fits so well, I really loved the second couple Qi Min and Qian Qian had a really toxic love but it fit so good with the drama. Every single couple in this drama was done well. I also love that there was not really any love rivals, no extra drama. As for family dynamic, I loved the fact that Fan Changyu turned the bandits into the xie brothers. She turned them into good guys and they became like brothers after. They were all so fun together.

Next Cinematography, because WOW it was absolutely beautiful. From the start to the end the vibe was done perfect, and the visuals were absolutely gorgeous. Speaking of visuals, can we talk about how every single actor in this drama is absolutely beautiful, Tian Xiwei and Zhang Linghe also looked extra good here, I can see why they are trending on fire in China right now. Plot wise, there definitely was a few plot holes here and there but their really not that obvious and didn't affect the drama at all, so i'd say this was done well. Last but not least the music, maybe its just me but the intro music before every episode fits so well with the drama, it goes from the city to all the battle which is representing Xie Zheng because hes born in this world of battle and death. Then it transfers to more hopeful music which represents Fan Changyu coming into his life, blooming like a flower. Maybe I'm just talking nonsense at this point, but in my opinion it represents the drama so well. Anyways, at the end of the day this drama is 100% worth watching. The high MDL rating and all the hype its getting everywhere is 1000% deserved.

GO WATCH IT RIGHT NOW..

"我真的很想很想你"

I am so happy I decided to give this drama a chance after seeing people bring it up so many times. So this is your sign!!

Lets first talk about how Tan Jianci plays this role perfectly, because Qiang Qingci's charisma is through the roof. The character is also so well written, he's literally a green forest, talk about dream man. Qiang Qingci can cook, he has a really nice voice, and he is also super caring. Shengsheng really scored with this man. Tan Jianci makes this role have more depth and I feel like he definitely carries this character. I also love Zhou Ye as Shengsheng, her naive and innocent look in this drama definitely brings her character to life. This pairing honestly never fails, because THEIR CHEMISTRY. This is definitely not a slow burn romance but in a way I loved it because the first 10 episodes I binge watched. The moment where Shengsheng and Qiang Qingci first met was honestly the best scene in the whole drama. I actually saw the sparks in the tension and also the chemistry in this scene was just everything. Also, the kiss scenes were so good!

Now lets talk about everything else, there definitely was some plot holes but the cast made up for this 100%. This is more of a comfort drama, as I feel like everyone gets happy endings.After so many sad endings that I've watched recently, this drama single handedly makes up for it. The ost is also really good, specifically 青梅引, since i've finished the drama I still listen to it! I am a sucker for good osts so this gets a 10/10 for ost. So sad I have to leave this drama behind, I'll really miss it but I definitely will be coming back for a rewatch sometime in the near future.

I don't want to leave the cast behind..

Personally, the cast saved the whole story. I was hooked on the drama until around episode 18, then the plot got kind of boring, but the characters were what ended up making me watch until the end. I absolutely loved SZY, and the ML's acting was so good. For me this is one of my favorite LXY dramas. Also an underrated opinion, but I loved Qingtai and Zhanlu they were so cute and also some of my favorite characters. As for the plot, I loved the dynamic between the ML and FL especially at the beginning, and their chemistry is top notch. Overall, this was one of my favorite 2025 watches especially before the plot dipped..

"When I chose you, I gave you my back... I'm only afraid that you won't trust me"

I have to say this drama's plot is really good, from the VR experience which was really cool to real life. The first few episodes had me absolutely hooked because i LOVE these types of plots where they know each other but haven't met in real life. Qin Xiaoyi was also enchanting. I was scared to start this drama because I thought it was just gonna be another historical and fantasy drama but was thankfully proven wrong. I ended up starting it for LYX and this one edit I saw. Okay, my ONLY huge plot hole that made me so annoyed that I wanted to quit the whole series was the whole Wang Guangming fiasco. That man wasn't even trying to cheat, the girl pulled him in and gave HIM a kiss, you can tell he was surprised. So if they just talked it out I feel like she would realize he wasn't trying to do anything. Also, remember that he had a startup and he needed Chixin because he needed the partnership, so he wouldn't immediately push her away and never contact her again which was understandable. Especially with 2 years of marriage and all those years of love she moved on quite fast and didn't even listen to him in the first place. I'm sorry this almost made me quit the whole series because I was so annoyed, it would have been fine if they made the man straight up cheat but HE DIDNT EVEN WANT TO, HE WASNT TRYING TO...

Anyways, the music was alright, everything else was good. LYX never fails to amaze me with her performances, the main couple was good. SML was pretty good as well. Everything else was really good! Personally recommending this drama!!!

I've gotten this drama recommended to me for so long now but I never got the chance to watch it until recently. Might I just say it DID NOT disappoint. Li Yun Rui is one of the gems I only found recently and he's already skyrocketed to some of my favorite actors. This man can genuinely have chemistry with a stick I actually believe it. Also, in the intro he looks so good and natural with gray hair, might I just say it suits him so well (Somebody please put him in gray hair more). The first episode in general was done so well, it hooked me in immediately. Meng Ziyi also does such a good job playing Dou Zhao, shes always captivated me with her peformances and this drama isnt an exception. Xia Zhiguang (Ji Yong) also did such a good job. Genuinely he might have been my favorite character in the whole drama, comedic, prioritizes the greater good, ended up catching everyone in the end, and most importantly didn't turn evil or tried to steal away Dou Zhao from Song Mo. I also really loved Dou Ming in her second life, she was sweet, nice, and never turned on Dou Zhao, sadly the scene where she was dying and only saw Wei Tingyu drinking made me feel so bad for her. However, Wei Tingyu after all this happened clutching her painting in the rain was just as sad of a sight.

This is one of my best finds of 2026. Plot is really entertaining, I didn't expect the Ji Yong stuff until the very end when it was revealed. The only few plot holes were the fact that Dou Zhao did all of this while pregnant, and the fact that Song Mo's loving brother suddenly turned evil and couldn't control himself?? Other than that this drama was a pleasure to watch. I wish Song Mo could've had gray hair more (selfish thoughts) or the drama connected more of it to their past selves (I swear Dou Zhao never explained to Song Mo the dream and he never remembered either just remembered her wearing a mask). However, even without this it was still my best costume drama of the year. If you haven't watched this and are lingering on the reviews go watch it right now I promise you won't regret it.

"芳菲落盡梨花白"

This drama is a masterpiece. The revenge the angst, its all done right. I've cried watching this, laughed, smiled, literally everything. The cast was perfect, every single one of the characters either made me want to punch them, or support them. Even though I absolutely hate the scriptwriter for all the unecessary deaths like Tong er and Wen ji and Lu ji. Especially with Tong er's d***th making me ball tears even though I already knew it was going to happen. After finishing the drama, I think my favorite episode was by far the zither episode with Jiang Li playing 芳菲落盡梨花白. The song is still stuck in my head, and the ost definitely tied together the emotion. I tried not to spoil too much, but if anyone is still deciding whether to watch the drama go right now because its 100% worth it and go in blind!
