Too confusing plot and dragged scenes
I was excited to start this drama as I finally found something from a different time period and with quite an interesting story. Unfortunately .... that is for my excitement. The series turned out to be stretched to infinity and painfully boring. Although I tried and fastforwarded some episodes, I even got to the middle of the series for some minutes but I couldn't make it further. My biggest problem with the drama was story dragging and constant revolvig around the same scences again and again and again. The story as a while wasn't bad, execution was 👎The actors aren't bad, the story isn't bad either, but the editing is terrible - hundreds of drawn-out scenes, unnecessary takes and scenes that give the show nothing more than extra minutes of length. If we cut the episodes, we would have 30 minutes from 45 minutes, which means the series would be shortened by 30%! 14 episodes less!
Shen Bi Yun, the female lead seems to be quite a complex character but her development and mysterious willingness to stay at Xuan family is annoying and hard to put together. The same goes for the rest of the family. They all have secrets (which is nice and interesting) but characters are not much explained. At the moment of my dropping they all seemed to be 100% of pure idiots.
