I have read the reviews of the series and was hesitant to watch for a while due to the reviews. I have seen several series lately with multiple of the leading acting cast, so i decided to watch this series. I watched the whole series in 3 days, i enjoyed it so much. Don't listen to the reviews, it does not do this series justice. I am not writing this to spoil for anyone, so i will keep that to myself. The story does a really good job of feeling the emotions of the story as it takes place. It was almost the end when i figured out what the goal of the full story was. In any case, if you like Chinese drama fantasies this is a must watch. I have already decided this will be a must buy so i can watch over and over again. The acting is very well done, the effects are good, the story is very well done and i am very pleased. I look forward to finding more jewels like this that i was so hesitant to watch. This series has made me write a review for the first time, and i am going to look for more series by this director and cast. Hope you enjoy this as much as i did.
