> I was very hyped about this drama. Always checked for updates. Desperate to see what’s coming next.
> I loved the cinematography! Loved the way the scenes were captured from every angle.
> I dig Ashile Tribe style. It just looked somewhat different and beautiful and ML always looked amazing .
> The fight scenes were something to watch. The music -- beautiful. I especially loved the comic input.
> The Long Ballad started off at a decent pace. I found it was very captivating. It was upbeat, but 30 eps in and I started to lose interest. In the beginning, without question, I knew what was driving Li Chang Ge ... but soon I was left to wonder what her purpose “really” is. It got lost in transition and the memento the series started off with was lost somewhere around this time as well.
> The writers tried to make Li Chang Ge into some sort of Godlike saviour, but the way I see it— only the life she deeds important is important.
> Overall, the series isn’t bad but neither is it great. I really thought The Long Ballad would have been 2021 “2020 Love and Redemption”, in the sense that, Love and Redemption was such a great hit.
> Maybe I will pick it up again in another year or so. No promises thou. But hey! Go ahead and give it a watch. You all might like it better than I did.
