"Words that have the power of the heart."
Did I just binge watched 12 episodes of an EPIC series?
Well yes, yes I did. And it was so worth every second of it.
Well balanced comedy with emotional damage in the mix
If they don't make a second season am gonna throw hands. (╯‵□′)╯
I *cof cof* we need more of Pu Yi Yong, mainly now that he assumed his role and legacy.
This just shows there's no need for over bearing romance or even the so dreaded love triangle within a plot to make it a great series. Friendship works just fine, the bond that unites these three is more than enough. The ML matches well with either the FM or the SML, he has this natural charm that the character Yi Yong gives to everyone he interacts with, like a warm comfort feeling to those he meets and helps. He is a broken little boy, a coming of age teen that suffered a huge loss and gained an immeasurable responsibility with the legacy that runs in his family. Still, there was no one better than him to do so.
Yi Yong may be "slow" as he says he is (even though he is street smart more than the others, intelligence is not always measured by the amount of studies or books one reads, what he lacks in the that and by the time he lost, he delivers with the passion in his heart to help those who can't speak for themselves), and may seem rough around the edges giving his natural poker face stare and unpolished remarks, but whenever he is pulled into a situation his empathy and kind heart make him teach valuable moral lessons to those around him. After all the word that pulled all those entities to cross his path, and that brought him Chu Ying and Guang Yan was exactly what describe Yi Yong the best. Nothing is a coincidence here.
He changed both Chu Ying and Guang Yan in both perspective and personality wise, they both have grown a lot thanks to him and his actions. And Yi Yong himself has also matured as the story progressed, learning more about his skills but also about the thin veil of other realms and entities. Yi Yong helped those the common mortals could not see or reach a helping hand to do so.
While grieving on his own he helped others in the best possible way he could.
I know it's a great series when Fandy Fan is part of the cast, even as a support role. Now, this is an actor that plays well with the heartstrings of the viewers whenever he does angsty roles. If my heart broke for him in More than Blue the series, in here he did it again. His episode and character was so sad and sadly enough so incredibly realistic too on the theme of loneliness and the importance of knowing a name, of acknowledging someone's existence of learning about their endless loneliness, that it takes us all into the perspective on how we treat and see others around us. It's so tragic how many lives are lost like this. Nameless, forgotten to everyone. Still, there's always someone who cares enough to try and know more. How they did it here was magical and enchanting to see. The tattoo being the sole companion, the bond that linked many characters from different status and backgrounds only for that single person who had a caring heart but that no one acknowledge in life... taught them all in death. The line... "He finally became a teacher." was so heartbreaking and yet so true. It reminds us to value people more.
Another thing that I like about this series is how realistic it portrays loss and grief. From fears and into superstitions to all the moral lessons as well. All those elements, wrapped into a nicely balanced comedy to break in between the heartwarming and heartbreaking moments make this a great drama to behold. The best part is how well the OST compliments this series and how is well used with the dialogue scenes. And let's not get started with the special CGI effects and camera angle shots that added more depth into this masterpiece. Whenever he grinded the ink stick into the stone as the heartstrings followed, and then picked the brush to write the heartfelt message, how the ink moved and gained life was amazing to see, among many others.
Definitely a must on everyone's WL. It's the type of series that increases the re-watch value too.
