Li Zong, Ni Zhao Cuo Fu Ren Le (2024)

Mini series that feels like a movie, with a good cast and an excellent wardrobe.

This mini series has 103 episodes of roughly 2 minutes. I watched this in one edit on YouTube, which meant a lot of the sound quality was worse than was intended (e.g. people clapping sounded like rummaging).
But putting that aside, the main leads were attractive and had decent chemistry. The female best friend is someone you love to hate. The story is interesting enough to keep you entertained. There's little to no other storylines in this, and everything seems to relate to the main plotline, which I appreciated. The ending was dramatic but they actually discussed that ahead of time why they did that. This series felt as if watching a movie, only noticing a new "episode" when there's a slight pause.
The clothes of the men and women are excellent. Even the evil women get to dress up prettily. The wardrobe team deserves a raise. The makeup up was excellent, I didn't even notice it on the guys.

If you normally love mini series with absurd plots and hunky men who take off their shirts at least a few times, you'll like this show. The romance is less at the forefront and there's much less kissing in this than normal mini series, but the shirtless man could compete with dhaozheng for sure (iykyk). The latter does have better chemistry but the acting skills are similar.

Give it a chance but try to find an official well-translated version as the YouTube version is awful at the machine translations, and I noticed they have two or three scenes in the wrong place.
