Everything could have been better if the main character wasn't a stoic, cardboard cutout Mary Sue. It reminds me of a nameless protagonist in an interactive story that the viewer is suppose to place themselves into. Ka Suo wasn't impressive and made no sense to the story since nothing he obtained was earned by him through hard work and experience. He wasn't vocal much, which made his lack of expressions harder to interpret. And his presence felt like a paperweight in the supposedly crazy action scenes or emotional moments. Why does his love with Li Luo cause everyone to suffer like the people from the Trojan War? So many causalities for Helen and Paris and just like their love, Ka Suo and Li Luo's was all for nothing. Even Ying Kong Shi's story wasn't finished. It was pure sequel baiting and no real conclusion to the drama's main events other than the Fire Clan losing the war in the end. The only good thing that resulted from this was Ka Suo dying, but now I see there is another drama to continue this story and that disappointed me. 61 episodes and no real motivation to complete this arc before turning it over to a new drama. Maybe it can be a cultural difference but I don't understand how there can be a drama with the main character as the least memorable one. Everyone praised him, supported him and loved him but all I see is nepotism, entitlement and red herrings.
