Could be better!

The story is literally so interesting, really my cuppa tea drama. Things about Soul Beasts and Soul Masters are awesome and it will be fancy to be discussed. Unfortunately, in my opinion, it's not well-executed, especially the plot until it felt boring. Some parts feel so flat, even for the fight scene, there's no tension. I don't know how to explain it, but it feels like some things weren't put in the right place.
However, the friendship that grows between them is really good. It's just so heartwarming to see. Also, a big thumbs up for the characters' development of those side characters. I don't know why it's always the side characters who got great development instead of the main character in cdrama lol. Both Tang San and Wu are doing well from the start tho.
Yet, the drama is still worth watching and I really wish for a sequel, because the ending can't even be accepted as an open ending. ㅠㅠ

Quite enjoyable

I myself enjoy this drama. This drama is actually my thing, particularly the less screen time of the romance because I'm literally not really enjoying romance. I like how they solved the problems of their kingdom, and the topic about the government and their officials, especially about how concubines should've worked to help the emperor. But, the last two episodes feel like not satisfying enough. It's just so so, nothing WOW.

Also, I like Zijin, but her character's personality is just so unreal to be real. Smart, brave, kind, patient, silver-tongued, easily forgiving people, even sassy, it's hard to find someone like her in real life. Moreover, I don't see a significant character development from her. Same thing goes for the others, they lack character development unless for Ziping.

The execution of those bad people was just unfair. Instead of giving them karma or being punished by the law, the writer let them d* words by suicide? I hate those parts. I believe the writer could do something better.

Forget about some lingering questions, overall, I love this drama. It's not boring for me tho.

This kind of drama is literally not my cuppa tea, though I gave it a try to watch it because of Xiao Zhan, and glad those early episodes gave me another reason to keep watching it. The romance plot is just the same as the other romance cdrama that I've watched, but the story between Mr. Lin's family is such a heart-warming story, it succeeded in making me drop my tears. I was always looking forward and also getting excited about their family scenes. Moreover, I waited for more development of some side characters like Gu Xiao or Xiao San. Their story should be interesting, yet it seems like the production team didn't bring it all out.

Heartwarming and a bunch of flower boys

Honestly, I gave it a try to watch this drama because of Chengxiao but got surprised because of the whole male cast, lmao. If you are looking for a drama that will spoil your eyes because of its cast, then this drama is super recommended.

Actually, I just started watching C-drama and romance drama isn't my thing, so I didn't have any expectations. I thought the drama would be filled with romance like the previous c-dramas that I've watched, but no? And it turned out to be "my cup of tea dramas".

I really love how they sent every message in this drama. They talked about gender equality, where some people underestimate women for things that they thought only men would understand.
It also talked about dreams. Those players want to chase their dreams despite the fact that they didn't get support and were opposed by their family. The only thing that they can do is prove that they didn't choose the wrong path.
I like how they pointed out fans' behavior. Some fans will throw hate to someone, even think that the support that they have given is enough to interfere in their idol's private life. Also, how people use mental health as an excuse because of her wrongdoing. That's a picture which also happened in real life.
Romance, dream, family, friendship, trust, even relationship between idols and fans, you can find it in this drama.

The matter is in me. I didn't understand the game, so I couldn't be excited T-T but it's still fun to watch. Fortunately, after 26 episodes, I could finally understand the game.
