Beautiful story about love, hate, understanding and self-sacrifice
For me Fangs of Fortune was highly anticipated drama because I love mythology/folklore based stories. Inspired with "Classic of Mountains and Seas", deep, intense and very philosophical, this drama now has a special place in my heart. I won't analyze everything in detail, I'll just describe what I liked the most.
Fate. Found family. Inner conflicts. Selflessness and righteousness. There's a lot to be said about this drama, but the most important for me is how unique it is in terms of relationships dynamics. Hou Minghao and Tian Jiarui did amazing job portraying their characters whose complex relationship and tragic fate form the heart of the story. For Zhuo Yichen it was long way from hatred to compassion, understanding and deep affection. For Zhao Yuanzhou, it began from "Promise me to kill me" but progressed to "Promise me that we'll protect the Wilderness and mortal world together". From enemies to friends to soulmates... And as a lot of viewers already commented about, Li Lun's role is also remarkable. I loved how his relationship with Zhao Yuanzhou was portrayed, gradually, like a mosaic: their past together, the reason why they separated ways, their painful conflict and affection which remained despite everything. Does any other drama have relationships dynamics like this? I think no. Does such a story need romance? No. I'm not going to join those who complained about "lack of chemistry" between Zhao Yuanzhou and Wen Xiao. Their relationship is healthy, simple and unconflicted, romance is subtle and I'm totally okay with this, because it's just not what this drama is dedicated to. It's friendships-centered and I wish we had more stories like this.
I think it would be fair to say that in addition to impressive plot this drama is a visual feast. Cinematography, costumes, styling and color palette are top-notch. And a lot of original soundtracks firmly settled in my Spotify playlist. So, with its captivating story and characters that you immediately become emotionally attached to Fangs of Fortune became a very precious gift for me.
