Not going to lie, I was intrigued by this show from seeing gifs and photo sets of both Bai Yu and Zhu Yi Long, their beautiful faces immediately caught my attention and I thought, “ why not check it out?” It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
First let’s talk about the music. I honestly have more than half the soundtrack downloaded simply because of how beautiful the music is. The opening soundtrack is very fantasitical and with heavy emphasis on the orchestra and English vocals. I could actually enjoy the opening theme without hardly any urge to skip through it. The same for the ending theme, it is a melancholy ballad type song that I thoroughly enjoy. Even the rest of the soundtrack lives up to par to both the themes and has a mix of suspenseful, beautiful, and amazing music.
Next is the storyline. Now for the storyline, it’s pretty much what the summary says it is. My only irritation with it is near the end of the series, where the story completely diverges from the web novel in order to keep it under the censors because of how gay the original storyline was. As a result, the ending is a bit rushed and left with a bunch of holes in the story. Not to mention that the actual ending was a bit disappointing compared to the content that was given to us earlier in the series.
The acting, from actors not main leads, was pretty cartoonish and cardboard, but that could be overlooked because of the superb acting done by the main leads. Bai Yu and Zhu Yi Long really went above and beyond in delivering the lines and acting through their bodies. The looks of longing and frustration and adoration were delivered perfectly and subtly. Their on screen and off screen chemistry is so good that it’s almost unreal. Even the acting of the secondary “couple” ( Guo and Chu) was excellently carried out and was arguably as beautiful as the storyline from Shen Wei/ Zhao Yunlan. I can’t fully come up with the words to describe how amazing the acting from these main leads were but it was incredible enough to make me want to rewatch it for the second time-which I am actually currently doing.
With all these factors put together, I can confidently say that I strongly liked the series.
