Generally I write very long winded reviews that completely analyze the plot and characters of every drama but this time I will be very brief. The main reason is that this drama is literally nothing new but it does everything that has been done before extremely well. I like Chinese dramas but there is much less to analyze than Korean dramas because the themes and characters are generally the same and they check off the same plot points. However, this drama did a great job of completing all the check points and keeping the plot relatively interesting.

My biggest qualms are two very superficial things: Firstly, I honestly don't like how Mark Chao looks... I know that is a ridiculous thing to say but there is something about his face that makes him unattractive to me. Just compare him to the visuals of Yang Yang or many other Chinese actors - it may be his hair but something just makes his nose and visuals very distracting for me (this is coming from a straight male). This obviously has nothing to do with the plot or characters so this doesn't effect my score and in my opinion he is a pretty good actor, but like I said, this is one of my biggest qualms with the drama. Secondly, I think there are too many random characters that appear and disappear to force the plot line forward which makes the pacing a little slow at times and a little too fast at times. However, this is typical of many Chinese costume dramas so it can be forgiven.

Overall, let me put this simply: if you have watched one Chinese costume drama than you have probably watched them all. Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms/Eternal Love does everything extremely well. It has the visuals, the art, the character tropes, the music and the feelings that most other costume dramas have. It's not groundbreaking, but it's definitely a good drama to watch when you have a lot of time.
