Masterpiece, Genius Story & Revolutionary

Wow! I just finished watching this series.
I watched Gong Jun in Legend of Anle with Dilraba. (You guessed it right, I watched Legend of Anle because of Dilraba. But I’m very curious about Gong Jun whom I never heard off - played the boring character, Prince Han Ye quite well).
First, I was a bit reluctant to watch this drama. Although, it’s recommended to watch, I’m not fond of BL genre. However, this drama is not a BL or romance drama. It’s about soulmates and brotherhood. Some scenes between the 2 ML are daring but not over the line. Still acceptable for me to continue watching.

Story - The scriptwriter is a genius! The plot is masterpiece - unpredictable & surprising. Only ep. 24&25 are boring but luckily the plot pick-up again until the end. The words used by actors are spot on. Characters’ development are progressing good even for minor character that I have forgotten at the beginning of the drama. I like that as a viewer, I also have questions about the plot, and the conversation between the characters put that questions in acting. Very well-done. I thought I live in the drama itself.

Scenes - Excellent! This drama did not suffers excessive CG effects. Good to see natural light scenes. The director is doing a great job to connect the scenes beautifully. I love all the fighting scenes - intriguing.

Acting/Cast - Gong Jun plays Wen Ke Xing extremely well. I described the character as: mysterious, cunning, elegance, manly yet sissy. Confused? Me too. I applaud Gong Jun to be able to deliver dual personality & when I watched Gong Jun expressions, I can’t predict what Wen Ke Xing will do next or think because Gong Jun is really good at making ambiguous expression (like I don’t know he will turn left or right or go straight unless the dialogue & action shows that). How can he become so sissy yet very manly ?- good job Gong Jun.
Zhang Ze Han also plays the Zhao Zhishu cooly. Heartless leader and the he went through character development that progress well.
Other supporting roles are doing good but some can be improved like Cao Weining & Gao Xiaolian.

Music - the OST from Liu Yuning fits the drama really well.

No spoilers. You should watch it. Great that I didn’t let the BL reviews stopping me from watching it. Good job to the production & cast of this drama. Whoever casts Gong Jun & Zhang Ze Han has great eye for talents.
