Before anything else, I always start with; It’s a Chinese BL. And Chinese BL have tons and tons or red tape! Saying that, this is a great BL, the cast was incredible, and the acting was on point.

Everyone points out the low budget effects and etc. but instead of saying how bad some props were, you had to admire how good they did with such limited money. For what I understand from hardcore BL novel readers, the story is very chopped. But this would be obvious since, again, the limited money and censorships. For such, they had to cut many scenes and back stories, but even if you don’t know it (I don’t), they did a great job on explaining it! Originally it was planned to have 28 episodes but ended (censor) with 12 episodes. Even the weeding part was planed to be on the 28th episode.

There are two things that really made me happy: 1) the secondary characters were awesome! They really did justice on the acting and the amount of time they gave them, 2) The ending is a weeding! Even though I wanted to see what happened at the end, for what I could gather, this BL got censor. And if you have seen it or will see it, they really didn’t show anything what you would have seeing in a Thai or Philippine BL (and you know how hardcore they are). For such, they decided to give it a very happy and unexpected ending that nobody (Chinese BL) has done before!

See beyond the low budge and the long political and complex story that they try their best to explained it in a very short (12 episodes) time.

I really enjoyed this BL. It’s just lovely and pure.
