it was perfect in one word

واقعا به معنای واقعی کلمه عاشقش شدم
عاشق تانگ لی سی
حرکاتش
کاراش
خیلی جذاب بود
لویونشی فوق العاده بازی کرد واقعا تک تک اجزای صورتش احساساتشو نشون میدادن
و اینکه داستان سریال هم واقعا قوی و فوق العاده بود
چون عاشقانه اش خیلی کم و در حد 0 هست ممکنه خیلیا خوششون نیاد ولی این سریال و تانگ لی سی تا ابد تو قلب من باقی میمونن

the ml's beautiful costumes were more interesting than the story

visually wise this is very pretty to look at, i liked all the costumes, each character's styling, the locations, and all the other details they put into production. lyx is also fun to watch, when his character is being edgy

but omg
this was sooo boring and sooo slow with zero emotional stakes, and the boring fight sequences where we got to see the ml show off his impressive dance skills just went on and on and on and onnnnn, it felt like punishment.
the story, told at a glacial pace was pretty dry too: mysterious and misunderstood guy falsely accused of killing big bro is continuously set up by insane and aggrieved former bestie bro aka thanos lite and his cohorts while he (ml) makes a bunch of friends and finds love (probably?) - that was it, until i dropped it anyway. there was nothing to look forward to in each ep apart from the pretty outfits. also this has a large cast, but they are somehow mostly unmemorable.
the main actor does what he does best - he coughs up blood, he's tragic, he's beautiful, he's frail, he knows something you don't, heh.
i'm adding this to the class of dramas i'm temporarily calling the lookables - dramas that look good but are just narratively dry. think fof, love in pavilion, etc.
this drama gave me cherry blossoms ptsd

The storyline is very beautifully and usefully crafted. Sometimes, I am confused by the characters' personalities, which are in conflict between good and evil. I have a lot of questions about Ian's relationship with Vali C. I am eagerly awaiting the next episodes.
I personally love Tang Li Si. Her mysterious calmness is really charming. Her smile kills me. The story and visuals of the series are excellent. My heart has been pounding since it aired.

Excited to see what’s next

Whispers of Fate has exceeded all my expectations. For a production that includes stellar performances from Luo Yun Xi and the rest of the cast, top notch visual effects and costume design, the best thing about it is actually the plot! The story centres around the mysterious protagonist Tang Li Ci (Luo Yun Xi) and his journey to around the world to revive his friend fangzhou, along the way we discover his past, his powers, and fall in love with the relationships (friend or foe) he has with everyone he encounters. It’s a journey for self discovery and it is captivating at every turn. The level of world building is unmatched by any other dramas and the imagination and creativity of the plot is a clever mix of Chinese mythology and western sci fi. I find myself screaming in excitement started at episode 4 and every episode after. Don’t miss this one, it is such a breathtaking masterpiece

Probably the best quality c-drama in this genre so far (have watched a LOT of them)

Gorgeous production quality, intriguing story, convincing cast. For those who love anime and mangas (not traditional C-drama xianxia) or even high end games like black myth - incredibly rendered in live action tv series. The setting and quality is way above the level of the usual (mediocre and obviously fake) fantasy c-drama setting. This one actually immerses you in the world of the characters and draws you into their universe. Many scenes feel more like a movie rather than a TV series, and warrant a rewind / pause just to admire the beauty and vision of the design.

Script and storytelling is tight and fast paced with many interesting hints of what lies ahead throughout for those who enjoy piecing together puzzles when watching c-dramas. This is one drama where you'll be rewinding key dialogues just to make sure you heard correctly and didn't miss a crucial foreshadowing/hint.

Acting here is spot on. All the characters from the subtle but superbly convincing portrayal by LYX to the engaging and interesting supporting characters - succeed in adding to the immersive experience. So far there isn't any jarring or annoying 'pulled out of story' moment from bad acting (unlike in some recent and concurrently airing c-dramas in similar genres where I actually like the Leads and was so looking forward to the tv shows - but alas got unwillingly jerked out of the story by half baked acting, inconsistent character interpretations/portrayals, annoying in-your-face artificial settings, and couldn't continue)

Dropped this chaos

Lots of pretty people and sfx - ambiguous storyline- not binge worthy - not edge-of-seat suspense…
As of Ep 9 … so far, I would definitely not recommend this drama series.
Ep 11 - Dropping this erratic, convoluted, dragging (on and on) drama series.
Honestly watch til ep 11 due to #LuoYunXi and a few other cast members I like/admire… but it’s become more and more annoying.

A Masterpiece of Intrigue and Endless Bromance – 10/10!

As a huge fan of dark wuxia and mastermind characters, Whispers of Fate completely blew me away. It is a rare gem that delivers flawless execution from the very first episode to the breathtaking finale.Story (10/10):The political intrigue and schemes in this drama are top-tier. It keeps you on the edge of your seat with smart, ruthless, and morally grey characters playing a deadly game of chess. What I loved the most was the heavy focus on deep loyalty and brotherhood over romance. The pacing was perfect, and the plot twists were incredibly well-thought-out.Acting & Cast (10/10):Luo Yunxi delivers an absolute masterclass in acting. His character is brilliant, complex, and emotionally deep. But honestly? The best part of the whole show was the Male Lead's chemistry with the rest of the cast. He literally had insane chemistry and a top-tier bromance with every single male character on screen, haha! Whether they were friends, allies, or even rivals, the tension and bonds were peak entertainment.Music & Production (10/10):The cinematography is gorgeous, perfectly capturing the dark, atmospheric mood of the Jianghu. The fight choreographies are sharp, dynamic, and full of weight. Combined with a beautiful soundtrack, the production value is outstanding.Overall:If you are looking for a brilliant, smart historical drama driven by exceptional schemes and unmatched brotherhood with every guy around, do not skip this one. A well-deserved 10/10!

Always a dumb ending

I series has been good til the last 7 or 8 episodes just like all the other drama shows the bad guy kills all these people and then he gets saved by the main actor and he get away with it . He should have gotten killed just like the other bad guys. All the characters in these dramas never die that’s another gay ass show too the authors think there being great but it’s getting annoying just watching the same characters fight thru the whole movie and no one die stupid stupid stupid drama

Visually stunning with an engaging plot

From all yhe episodes out so far it is a 10/10!! it’s so different to normal Xian xia or wuxia drama. I can’t figure out TLC powers , he seems to know everything. And loving the leaks to his past !! the drama is visually stunning ! My fav fight seen is still ep2 between TLC and LY, no one does better blood spits than LYX. The OST and bmg is also stunning esp the opening theme, it’s constantly playing in the background especially when the gang sets off to another adventure!
more to come !!

Visual feast

7 episodes in and I’m totally invested in this drama. Love that romance is not the driving factor. Acting is on point and there are still many characters to meet and fully understand. Can’t wait for more episodes. I really recommend this one if you are looking for something a little different while remaining in Asian fantasy.

Whisper of Fate, A new masterpiece by Luo Yunxi

​I was waiting for Whispers of Fate like water in the desert. I was sure that I would like it, and after 8 episodes, I can say that it has exceeded all my expectations!
​From the very first episode, I was captivated by the story and its protagonists! Luo Yunxi needs no introduction... every work of his is GOLD! He is an exceptional artist, and in Whispers of Fate, he is once again demonstrating his infinite acting capabilities!
​I recommend Whispers of Fate to everyone!

The storyline

There are a lot of known actors I'll give it that. First impression is I don't know if i care for the story line. I'm at episode 15 so far and its kinda repetitive. Female in red dress won't go away and she's annoying. Everyone regardless of what Tang (ML) does the general population only believes the psychopaths when they said he's evil but yet he has not actually done anything evil. 🤔 Make it make sense. AND Tang tried to explained what happen to his master but again fueled by hatred and his own perception A'li won't listen. This show compared some of the other's that came out around the same time is a bit lacking. So far each episode just keeps being the same problem just different scenery. Not sure if I'm going to finish it. I will say however, people are hating on the FL. I don't see why. She's better than some I've seen. No complaints on acting for anyone they're all pretty awesome. I'll let you know if i finish the show but as of now I'm bored with it.
