*Bad dubbing
*2FL is a mentally retarded narcissist with an underbite problem.
*Villain does the villain-laugh like literally after every sentence and its so cringe. Bro. Get a desk job and give up acting, srsly.
*I give it a generous 4.5 because at least it didn't put me to sleep 20 times.
*I would recc this to, say, a coworker I pretend to like because I have to, but who really deep down I don't like.

I watched it for Cavan Wen! Either way...the trainwreck!
This drama had one of my most beloved tropes which is the change of identity and of face surgery where our Male Lead thinks his beloved female lead betrayed him. He is a man bent of fury and hatred of the woman he once so desperately loved. He hurt her in all the way he knew to hurt her. It was heartbreaking to watch. He was only digging his own grave and he let his bitterness and jealousy consume him until there was no way left for her to actually forgive him when all secrets were revealed. And that ending....oh god that ending.Was this review helpful to you?

The ending isn't as confusing as it seems
It took me a minute to understand the ending, because it actually wasn't the ending - it was the beginning, before ZiRun left for the war. It was the first time ZiRun, WanRou and ShaoLi were all in the same space at the same time. Deductive reasoning makes me think what would have followed would have been the guy in her audience (ShaoLi) would have followed ZiRun to war, died at his side and then ZiRun took his face because his own had been damaged too badly and to discover who had betrayed him. They said from the start that Mu ShaoLi worked his way to the top from nothing quite quickly. This is why no one questioned anything about him and he was the ideal identity for ZiRun to adopt upon his return at the start of the series, or why he was so passionate about avenging her supposed betrayal of the man she loved. He kept bringing it up and she couldn't understand why.Overall it was entertaining, if more than a little on the unrelatable side. The bad guys were a bit cliche with the main one's 'I'm evil' cackle at the end of every sentence, and his 'pick me' entitled little sister who needed some serious psych evaluation. Some scenes were a bit hard to watch, but the internal conflict of the characters did bleed off the screen, so that always makes for good viewing.

beautiful mini series
This series is well done, and above all, very well acted. The main character is excellent, thanks to the work of Wen Yuan (or Cavan Wen). The actor is also very muscular, and the direction gives us some great scenes where he's shirtless. I'll take away half a point for the ending, which is ... confusing! A low-budget mini-series, but well-made!Cette série est bien faite, et surtout très bien jouée. Le personnage principal est excellent grâce au travail de Wen Yuan (ou Cavan Wen). L'acteur est en plus très musclé, et la réalisation nous offre de belles scènes où il est torse nu.
J'enlève un demi point pour la fin qui est ... confuse !
Une mini série à faible budget mais bien réalisée !
