Older cast for older folks
Watched this for the male lead but was rather disappointed by the overall show. Love scenes were particularly cringe, especially when female lead has to portray the innocent and sweet scenes.
Show feels like a budget production. Props were clearly fake and plastic. Hairdos were dated, male lead’s hair when down was so weird. The fox clan’s hairdo even more ridiculous. It was hard to watch.
Thankfully OST was great, closing song by ZLY stuck for quite a while.
Despite all the above, the overall plot was enjoyable especially with the sub-plots to revive the various spirits… I also found some nuggets of wisdom from the show.
1. Power ignites fear. People feel threatened when absolute power resides with an individual. Unity from fear is never long lasting.
2. Betrayal hurts the most when it’s from the very people we are trying to protect.
3. The world is created with its own checks and balances. Don’t tilt the balance.
I also liked the older cast of this show, more realistic for mature audiences but.. as said earlier the love scenes didn’t quite fit. I didn’t think the chemistry was great between the couples of the show too.
Male lead acting as usual was great, especially the scene when he was talking to himself about the 5 sins. Impressive.
Show is still worth watching, especially if fan of LXY.
