Le Loup (2020)

A pretty good show, great scenes! A must see!

Beautifully sceneries in the high mountains of China with an original plot.

As the story progresses, you will start to love all the characters. Great acting from the main leads and the supporting ones. The chemistry between the actors is great.

Great acting and chemistry from the main leads to the supporting ones.
The story plot appeals to those soap drama lovers but I loved JI CHONG's (Xiao Zhan) caracter. His story line is attractive, touching and full of funny moments. I heard that it was Xiao Zhan's first formal acting in a drama and I would say the result is definitely remarkable. This talented artist definitely shows his acting talents

Definitely the best drama to end 2020

This drama definitely one of the best drama to end up 2020. After waiting for some time, this drama finally aired and yes it really worth the wait. This is the first drama that I really love even it has a sad ending story. The storyline is super good, it tells a love story between a wolf boy (male lead) and Xing Er (female lead). And because of a misunderstanding, they part of.. and meet again after 8 years. Later on, the wolf boy transform into the cold and ruthless Prince Bo.
The next story will be happier when they back together but not long it will be so painstaking and frustrated. I cried a lot because of this drama but It doesn't make me stop watching this because it is too great and amazing story.
Not only for the love story that is so good, the politics story in the kingdom was very interesting too. We can clearly see all of the actors are doing great, the character development, their chemistry, and even for supporting actors are doing so good. One more plus point is the music, I have never seen a really good music that match well with this drama, and after I check it, no wonder the music is so good because the music department is running by Jolin Tsai....It really has the best soundtrack.

Darren Wang is the perfect actor that really suits the role of wolf boy and Prince Bo. He has the wild aura that make him perfect for wolf boy and the strong and powerful aura that match with Prince Bo. And his eyes is really something.. it will make us can feel when he is frustrating, worry, mad, and even sad. Definitely he is not only handsome and good looking, but has a very good performance for acting. I really can cry a lot because him... As for Li Qin, I already watched so many of her previous drama and all I can tell that she is really pretty and talented. The next one is one of the top actors right now which is Xiao Zhan, He is really the strongest second male lead , but still I prefer Prince Bo because he is really the perfect man for Xing Er.

Overall, this drama may not sweet all the time, maybe more sad, bitter, and painstaking one. It was really touching for all of the male lead do to the female lead from the beginning even it nears the ending, He always be the one who help her whenever she need him. So, even when the female lead sacrificed herself in the end, it still worth it because I believe the real ending is they will reunite again and have a happy ending in the heaven. So, please watch it now, you won't regret it for sure!

Loved this series

Loved this series, I dont really know any of the lead actors as I have only started watching Chinese series recently. I did enjoy Ashes of Love and Eternal Love which kind of got me addicted. I was looking for something new to watch and came across this series.
I can honestly say this is by far no. 1 on my list!! Darren Wang was amazing as the wolf. He portrayed the strong, loyal, protective nature of the character perfectly.
Apparently most people watched for the other male actor from Untamed (Sean) but for me Darren stole the show! Chemistry was great between the leads,their love story kept me wanting to watch more. Got my sisters to watch this and they loved it too.

Beautiful masterpiece! Disappointing ending.

Positive: Darren Wang was made for this role! He is hot, aggressive and vicious like a wolf! Love it! :D

Negative: Tragic ending. Horrible clothes! ML has some strange priest-like robe.

Music: Beautiful, haunting songs! I'm amazed how good all the songs are, and it goes so well with the theme of "wolf".

I love masculine ML, who are NOT pale (LOL) and Darren Wang has a tan! Love it! I really like how the director made him cold, emotionless, yet conflicted behind the FL's back. I love how they portray the depth of his character. And I love that they gave him a tan! Fitting for soldiers in the sun all day! Finally!

FL is quite naive up until ML betrays her. Her character is a bit boring, annoying, and pitiful, but Li Qin is a very good actress, and portrays it the best she can. Though I don't think this role fits her. She seems more like a mature, smart person and this role should go to someone who looks young, naive, and gullible.

Some scenes don't make sense to me, for ex. I don't understand why ML would bring his troops to be harmed if he just wanted FL to kill him. He's big into brotherhood, so I would think he would protect his troops. If I was director, I would just have him go to the battleground himself and let FL kill him. LOL. Why bring the troops too?

I also don't get the tragic ending themes of these new Chinese drama. It's almost as if Chinese dramas are required to be tragic these days. I think this drama didn't need a tragic ending, as ML and FL could have just left the world to live in the mountains, like Return of the Condor Hero. The ending was a disappointment and unnecessary. It could have been one of my go-to re-watch drama, but I'll just watch up to the last episode. LOL.

Xiao Zhan's character is very likable in this drama. He did a great job playing someone with a big heart, though the wedding scene was a bit funny.

Xin Zhi Lei who plays Yao Ji is a very beautiful actress and plays her character well.

Not bad as i think,but still lacking something , AMAZING OST! ,ending.......hmm

Actually, this is not impossible to have a good ending, but the director team chose the worst one.just like lanling wang


There are not many misunderstandings, but once they are misunderstood it takes a lot of time to resolve



It was pretty good at start, but it seemed a little strange in the end.

The plot to express the story was pretty good at first, but in the last few episodes, things happened suddenly, very strange, incomplete, and unclear.

The storyline of the events that occurred is quite complete, but for past events, past timings, and timing for the future it is not clear, it is just said a few days, a few time, it is not clear how long time has been past,, how long time it has been since his father died ,how long time she training with jichong

They only like to say half their dialogues for the scene and they changed the plot after half of it, so I don't know what they are talking about or what they are talking about.




###
told that the female lead and the male lead have met since they were little and after they parted and met again they pass many times but meet shuddenly after ye sha massacre ma family

Seperated and FL married to second male lead but divorce and FL&ML together again without any gossips?



###
and still many questions remain:
1. Who is wen wang? According to wang xiang, "li manor " then who was the royal family of the ex dynasty? Pingyuan princess or WEN WANG?

If pingyuan princess is wen wang wife so she is not of orthodox blood, so pingyuan princess cant be called ex dynasty last princess,

but if wenwang is pingyuan princess father,,, then mazhaixing not "huang nu (emperor daughter) because emperor is her grandfather not her father

And if jin wang also have prince tittle and he surname is li so that mean ma zhai xing father surname is li?

2. How old "li ju qi " jin wang first son,, he already appeared when chu kui usurp the throne

3.how old ma zhai xing ,lang zai,, yelu baona, and ji chong?

4.when chukui first son dead? And why chukui want to kill him? Not loyal? Bad reason!

5.how of ping yuan princess? ,,if 25 years ago she only 18 years old so if she still alive she just 43 years old?

6.and all officer dead?

7. And bo prince dead or not?







#############################

Ep 3, when king ask lord bo for return to kuizhou,the scene little weird but still acceptable

Ep 4 , lang zai, meeting ma zhai xing a bit suddenly met after missing it so many times

If LANGZAI has nostalgia with kuizhou, it should be impossible, Because Langzai's impression of kuizhou is only betrayal and loss of family,He should hate ma family , and he doesn’t know that xing er he know is ma zhai xing

Isnt said that ma zhai xing was traumatized? Why did she become poisoned?


Ep 5,
From episode 5 the scene sequence seems to be a little reversed a, won't Haidie report to the emperor about the ma family troops? But why does it seem that the emperor knows before she reports? And what Haidie reported wasn't about the troops ,,

Mazhaixing said the killer of ma mansion is held tiger seal on his hand,, she witbessed by her own eyes? Real of fake? I not remember that she see that scene



Ep7,,, from episode 7 the incompleteness of the story begins to appear, if you say Mazhaixing is told to stay at Bo Prince's house, without the ceremony you can still understand it, but mazhaixing why are there no questions at all?,,,

ma feng cheng meet bo prince, the scene unseen scene too,

and has some contradiction, Isn't that bo prince said that is an emperor's order had to treat as bo prince consort , but he himself said he was not the Bo prince consort,,,,

secondprince said boprince and him already known each other for over ten years,, but the years just past 8 years!,,,

and when yanghou(4prince cousin) the milliter officer, report to emperor about assasin of 2prince is to suddenly and the assasin already dead


Ep 12,It's a bit strange. If she doesn't know that he is a langzai, and she no longer suspects that he is a langzai, she shouldn't know that lordbo has a wolf army, if she knows that,, didnt she doesn't suspect that he is a langzai again? And he also used his blood, her character is a smart character, so is it impossible that she doesn't notice it? A person who is has same face and related to a wolf, wouldn't she doubt it?,, And the funny thing is that they just discovered that the princess was kidnapped. Even witan princess guard and maid was killed by someone, they should have guessed it from the beginning ,,Which a stupid murderer would kill if there were no have bad motives?


Ep 16, It's unbelievable ,, bo prince is so powerful he couldn't lift the iron cage, but Wenyan can easily Overturned the iron cage,,

even though the arrow only hit the penetrating part of the arm, not even near the heart, already said that she was helpless, then when Bo Prince was stabbed by a sword until pierced through why was he still alive? shouldn't the stab position be more closer to the heart? won't blood spurt more easily?

And where ma jing? She is ma zhai xing's servant, she must be in her side

And jing prime minister already dead?



Ep 17, so suddenly! ,,,just told mazhai xing to rest for a few days ,, going to the border qitan took a few days ,, got a report from the emperor immediately arrived at the capital and the second prince was injured





Ep 18, why suddenly 4prince in jichong hands? Arent they on same side?

Ep19, Why did the debt become three? I thought it only one,,, why shudenly ji chong lure bo prince to wolf hunt mount? ,isnt it around kuizhou? ,,, And where did Wenyan know that boprince is langzai, doesn’t they said to keeping it secret?,,, They said that jichong came to boprince manor and kidnapped the princess? Didn’t mazhaixing just be with jichong?,,and 3 things already done, but ji chong she still owe him? ,,,,,,,

emperor It turned out that the emperor did not know that mazhaixing knew langzai. I thought the emperor knew about it from the beginning, so I told them not to let Boprince know that they were going to attack the ma mansion.So what was the emperor afraid of from the beginning? Why couldn't let Boprince know that they would attack Ma manor? This becomes not interesting



Ep21,, why 4 prince suddenly at beiliao river? ,then ep19 when 4prince asking weyan and others obout what happen with bo prince no the result,,, It's unclear, what is it in the princess's footbath?,,,,At the beginning, didn’t Yaoji say that he and Boprince are incompatible?,,Is she so stupid? Why is she getting stupid?



Ep22 ，slaughter banquet,, just seeing mazhaixing picking people for sacrificing and just pass like that? ,,and i just know ma zhai xing already know YESHA existence ?


Ep23, WHY SHUDDENLY DUAN MANOR OLD SERVANT ALREADY DEAD?! AND WHY did duan manor want to frame boprince?

Ep24, shuddenly ma troops already send to attact jin troops Taibao battalion

Ep26, ep22 ma zhaixing already know about yesha existence but....... Seems like ma zhaixing didnt know about yesha leader is bo prince

Ep28, what happen next? After mazhaixing ride fast the horse to market? It’s better not to shoot,if shown like this way,for nothing


Ep30, where the old qitan king? Why her brother become a new king?

Ep33, Zi shen (yaoji assistant) ep26 he is sent to jail because want poisoned mazhaixing, but when he go out?



Ep34, Yao ji go out searching her foster father but Just talked about some unclear bullshit and then go back to the palace to cure bo prince,

And he didn't ask for his ancestors, why are they related to the first prince? chixiao sword?first prince? Isnt first prince sword is longshe sword? And why first prince dont want chukui take the sword? And why chukui want to used 4prince threaten first prince?



Ep36 ,half talking! Whats bo wang weakness?Lang gu hua? it's not that if he stained with lang gu hua , he would become very cruel beast?

What yaoji said to chukui? 4prince conspiracy? Isnt she want to protect bo prince?


Ep 37,, What happen with first prince?,, absurd Why are boprince and zhaixing so coincidental found a house that someone there who can save them?




Ep 42,,from where they know about zhao liu ye record? There is no time to them for searching that


Ep43,,, Didn’t it mean that yaoji has already returned to the capital?,,,,And isn't the chuchu prince consort praying in the temple, why did she know about the second prince?,,,
36:42 when is that? Yaoji and bo prince past? ,and who laying on the bed?


Ep47,,,mazhaixing and boprince Once they said that they had been separated for many years, and then said that they had been separated for only one year, how long did they separate?


Ep48,why shuddenly mazhaixing taking the medicine? ,,, I thought they were talking about how to save boprince, not how to save 4prince, and how jichong know about this?,,

and why when they meeting again they talking about antidote to cure bu prince? And jichong seems not know about the medicine that mazhaixing taking?

They always talking about mazhaixing saved bo prince,,,

What actually happen with ma zhai xing?! Omaigot! Ridiculous
She ffulfilling bo prince wish?! What wish? Help 4prince?! When!

And mazhaixing and ji chong already divorce? Without any gossips?

Jichong sneaked into Yang kingdom， and escaped from danger just like that? Too sloppy




Ep49,,, If she wasn't so impulsive, she shouldn't have died

Lovers' Love and Hate in a Despicable Way

The main role of this drama, Darren Wang is casted into a villain-like role as Prince Bo, a beastly, ferocious and a self-centered traitor of his real self only have changed at the latter part of the story. In the same way, the story is a very chaotic play of human emotions which is unrealistic to the actual human life. It is also in unimaginable concept of the story for both lovers in the lead role in a despicable character particularly of dealing their emotions. I salute Darren Wang to act perfectly and his face and aura looks exactly the same of a savage indigenous man of native Latin America of those we have seen in the film: Apocalypto. This is a kind of drama where the villain is the main role and putting the second lead role character of Ji Chong played by Xiao Zhan who turns-up as the righteous hero in the story. Furthermore, the story is highlighting the weaknesses of a woman as illogical, naïve, and emotionally unrestrained or emotionally slave to the man she loved in the character of Ma Zhai Xing portrayed by Li Xin in the story. Actually the character of Ma Zhai Xing is an insult to our modern women nowadays who are against to be victimized of the abuses and maltreatments of the men and against of stereo typing the women like the character of Ma Zhai Xing. The acting of the actors and cinematography of this drama are superb.

Finally: The Wolf!

Though I didn't wait like many people did for 3 years to watch the drama, I was anticipating it. Primarily I wanted to see Xiao Zhan in his first major role but I had also seen Li Qin in Princess Agents and Jade Dynasty, so I knew she had the acting chops. This was the first time seeing Darren Wang in anything. Though I had not like Lord Personality Disorder as I called Lord Bo and how he treated MZX for most of the series for supposedly her own good, I do have to give props to Darren for being able to switch from an ice cube to a stuffed animal and back again in the blink of an eye. I don't think many actors could pull that off. MZX was the only character that I wish was done better with development as she didn't really show her badass side until literally the last episode. The entire time she went from quite strength to powerless, to a sappy girl who let lord disorder get away with humiliating her left and right. It was very choppy. For his first major role, Xiao Zhan did a wonderful job. JiChong was friendzoned by the woman he loved but still came to her aid no matter what. Considering he didn't have many scenes, he was believable and well played/developed as both a bounty hunter and as the prince. Also given the fact that they filmed in a high altitude area where many developed altitude sickness, they did a pretty good job. I do wish many portions of the plot were better explained or handled. This drama is very angsty and heavy with a sad ending for both main leads however, if you're willing to go beyond that and understand the psychology behind the leads and their lives, it is worth the 49 episodes.

I think I liked it but I am confused

Let me start by saying I am confused. Overall I think I liked the show but I have never been so confused about a show in the past. Like exactly why did the emperor kill the eldest brother and how did Lord Bo and Fourth brother find out? Why and when did Ma Zhaixing become so ill she only had a few days to live? When did MA Zhaixing become a martial arts expert and stronger than everyone, I think that takes more than a couple lessons. It seems like they cut out major parts of the story and confused me to the point and rewatched episodes to see if maybe I missed something. Also I have never been a second lead person. Many people find them more interesting than the lead, but I always see them as serving a purpose and never route for them - except for this show. Ji Chong is by far the best character.

Story was about a boy (Lord Bo / Wolfie) raised by wolves who befriends a girl (Xing Er / Ma Zhaixing) circumstances separate the two and Wolfie is adopted (meaning tortured and abused) by the emperor. Eventually Zhaixing's family is killed by Lord Bo's troup. The two meet again, misunderstand one another, then Ji Ching comes into the story and saves the show. Eventually they are honest with one another but well I'll let you watch for the ending. Story is typical misunderstandings although Lord Bo is confusing, apparently he was helping people all along but there is no sign or evidence. They tell us he always was protecting the people from the crazy emperor, but we never see it or any proof so I guess we just have to believe it. What I liked was the comparison of Lord Bo and 4th brother's toxic relationship with their father the emperor and comparing that to Ji Chong and his relationship to his dad the King of Jin.

Character wise.... I didn't really understand Lord Bo and they never really fleshed him out. Everything was almost second hand so I cannot say I was attached to him at all. Zhaixing was typical FL, a little silly in the beginning and then after bed events becomes cold and sad all the time. I loved the characters of Yao Ji, who was imprisoned with Lord Bo and while she seems bad is really a good person. I also loved Princess Bao Na, she was a breath of fresh air and played the silly princess to perfection. She could border on getting annoying but then managed to pull back. Fourth brother was adorable as well. Which leads me to Ji Chong who I adore and want him to have his own show. We meet him as a care free bounty hunter and then eventual find out who he really is and why he became a roving bounty hunter. You ACTUALLY see him helping people and he supports EVERYONE and puts them first, helping all of them get what they want especially Zhaixing. I can say I'm glad she doesn't end up with him cause she didn't deserve him. Princess Bao Na had the best line talking to Ji Chong, roughly "You're the coolest man I've ever seen". I couldn't agree with her more

In all the acting was well done. Everyone acted their parts well. Lord Bo was a little confusing at times, but I blame the script more than his acting ... unless it was bad acting choices.

The OST is very good, although the music was a little distracting within the story and almost jarring at times. It does not seamlessly blend into the show like 'The Untamed" but I do enjoy the music and listen to it frequently.

Would I rewatch ... maybe for jJ Chong or to see if I can understand parts that seemed to be skipped.

Did I like it? Yes but maybe not for the reason's I was supposed to. Like at the end all I wanted was for Ji Chong to be happy so why I liked the show was proportionate to Ji Chong!

Really good drama

So I watched this drama for Xiao Zhan and got impressed but Darren Wang. The range he possesses my goodness i loved the way he portrayed innocence then hatred then menacing and then in love. The music is beautiful the acting of the whole cast is just awesome. I loved the transition of FL. How she learnt fighting different skills and the ending it was heart breaking but beautiful. The character of Ji Chong was damn sexy every time he came on screen i literally slowed the video to get a good look on him. Li Qin did a fantastic job in this and loved her emotion portrayal in different situations. The story always keeps you on edge of the seat and it is so interesting so painfully good. Beautiful creation by everyone. Also i loved the ways the two ml support and teaches the FL to fight on her own. That was darn good. A special thanks to costume department especially for Ji Chong loved them all. The music, acting, cinematography everything.

Angsty and sad, but too long

Overall good and sad, but too long. Honestly I had to read episode summaries from Drama Slot to get through it and I had to fast-forward through a lot of the last 10 episodes. For people who don't use episode summaries I could see them giving up midway.If they had tightened it up properly by cutting some stuff from the beginning, middle, and particularly the last 10 episodes, I would have given this a 7.5 (note that I almost never give anything above an 8.5 or 9, so 7.5-8 is actually a decent score). For how much it drags I will bring it down to a 7; normally I might knock off a full point for stuff that feels too long, but I think that this drama is actually pretty good and so a 6.5 feels a bit too low.

Overall acting was good; Li Qin's character in the beginning is a little annoying but I understand she was trying to play a young version of herself and be very naive, and she gets better. Darren Wang was actually very good as a complex and conflicted Wolf Boy/Prince Bo that you get angry with and yet understand his reasoning even if it's painful. The whole Noble Idiocy thing (where one character is hurtful to the other to protect them) is hard to pull off and feels manufactured for angst. It's frustrating and painful, sure, but it doesn't feel quite as much like an unnecessary trope thrown in: it feels like it really is the product of all of the circumstances. Xiao Zhan did fine in his role but I don't think it was nearly as difficult of a role to plan as Prince Bo. The girl who plays Bao Na is annoying but the person who played Yao Ji did pretty well.

I'm pretty doubtful that I would rewatch it (I certainly wouldn't in its entirety), but I don't really think Rewatch Value should impact an overall score. A good rewatch value is nice to have, but with so many dramas out there, I rarely rewatch stuff anyway otherwise I'd never get through my list :P

The Wolf grew teeth

Captivating from the start, Darren Wang's duality in this role is well played. He has an aura as Prince Bo and can exude both sex appeal and menace.
Li Qin also gives a good performance and her character's development from young and naive to one with responsibilities and regrets is quite melancholic.
I liked the mix of supporting characters, from light hearted to wicked. Xiao Zhan is, as always, a pleasure to watch, as his character returns to his obligations and surprises everyone.
The story itself is pretty good, with the usual scheming, plotting and treachery that surrounds the King and heirs, and mistrusting clans.
It's something of a melodrama and not a fluffy watch, although there is plenty of romance.
My only gripe is how Zhai Xing would not face up to the fact that her Wolf Boy was a person that no longer existed. She herself was changed by her experiences, yet she somehow insisted that You Wen was still an intact personality, as though stuck in time.
There's fighting, battles, laughs, cries, heart ache, redemption, regret, loyalty, everything! A good watch and one that could be revisited after a time, as there's so much going on and it's a relatively complex story.
