Le Jour le plus long à Chang'an (2019)

- Main lead is deemed as a criminal who is a valuable asset for special corps to use him to solve cases despite knowing the guy is only in for other plans.
- Racing against time
- Focuses on incidents leading from one to another
- Got some action and crime solving to sneaky infiltrations but not as convincing as Chang'an
- No injection of fanservice etc > but will eventually drag towards the end

a secret plot that can break a kingdom, great script and fast action, memorable characters and strong women. the end of every episode leaves you asking for more

Totally recommend. It totally remind me of how smart the storyline change&improve. I'm not a good english speaker so i can't express how every character compliment each other.

The scene with the king hiding in the pig pen, and the crazy woman badgering him reminds me so much of Romance On the Farm, both in authentics, as well as the flavour of comedy. They are both excellent dramas with excellent cinematography.

The two stories were written by Ma Bo Young and have in common the political plot, well-constructed characters and palace intrigue.

I recommend because of the same author “Ma Bo Yong” ,the king of investigation novels. If you like TLDICA, you’d probably like this drama too. The acting performances and cinematography are stellar .

The same grand and epic feel with plenty of gritty darkness and so much action in every episode! It's on par with Game of Thrones.

I just started league of nobleman but seeing how this is going, it reminds me a lot of the longest day in in chang'an. the cinematography was the first thing that caught my attention. both series have mysteries and cases they solve that eventually sounds like it going to lead up to bigger cases. the only difference is that the longest day in chang'an is based on a one-day event but the action pack and everything that happened within that 24-hour period kept me on edge. the same feelings I have for a league of nobleman, I kept wanting more.

First, for Zhou Yi Wei as the main characters (even though in TLDC, he is the villain). Second, for the Chang'an, what a fabulous setting! Third, for the mysteries and intelligent play.

Cao Dun was the director for both dramas. He's an expert at cinematography and fight scenes, and his work is always gorgeous and with high production values. Because of this, the two dramas have a similar feel.

Also high quality drama with great script, acting, music, cinematography. Leads and side characters are well developed. Psychologically intense show with deep atmosphere that just grabs you into.
