"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

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..Was this review helpful to you?
2025 Must Watch
I don't know why all the other reviews are so horrible because I personally loved this drama. The main couple and second leads were all so good and I don't skip over their scenes that much which is rare for me personally. Also the ost is fire? The first episodes were very hooking, there were like 3 filler episodes in the middle but it was overall a really good drama. I came into this drama with no expectations so I am not sure if that will make a difference but I will be recommending this!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Best Historical Drama of 2025
Hands down the best drama i've watched all year so far. Ren Jialun is one of my favorite actors and never disappoints this drama included. His chemistry is always so insane and his chem with Landy Li in this drama was even more top notch. Even with little kissing scenes or hard romantic scenes you can still feel the love they have for each other. Literally a must watch!!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
"The King is Hibernating"
This was one of the most refreshing modern dramas I've watched in 2025, personally I really enjoyed this drama and it definitely topped my 2025 list. The chemistry between esther (FL) and lin yi (ML) was so good and I really enjoyed the dynamic. Since I honestly love skiing, I was really excited for this drama and I have to tell you it DID NOT disappoint!! Rewatched this around 3x now, do not mind some of the bad reviews I promise you its worth it to watch!Was this review helpful to you?

"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!Was this review helpful to you?
10/10 all aspects, this drama is one of THE best dramas in history
I have one word for this drama absolutely perfect. Yes you will experience all the emotions, (mainly crying) but I promise you this drama is 100% worth watching. I am not going to spoil it too much because going in blind will be the best way you can experience this masterpiece. Have fun! (and p.s. prep the tissues).Was this review helpful to you?
