rumors have been circulating

You want to see a revenge drama where you take justice into your own hands and you're expecting that from this? Hahaha, simply not. He's a justice officer; you can't just go around killing everyone with your bare hands. That's why he's good; he doesn't stoop to the level of those people who committed those atrocities.

Precisely for that reason, because she was the only one who believed in him, he should have been very grateful to her and not thrown a tantrum when he found out she was a fan of his. The guy almost destroyed her house because of photos and accessories she had of his group. A very disproportionate reaction. I understand that he was sad because of the grief, suspicious of everything and everyone, but this type of reaction is unacceptable for any kind of person. If there wasn't a flimsy context to explain why he did it, imagine someone commenting: "He's a 10, but when he found out she was a fan of his, while she was out of the house, in her house where she was living for FREE, he basically tore up and destroyed several things about him and personal things she had." Looking at it that way, he doesn't seem like a 10 to me.

In my opinion, they could have just remained friends; that would have been enough for me. Just because it's a drama without a specifically defined mystery/crime tag doesn't mean romance needs to be there. We need to learn to value friendships between protagonists, not just romance. Besides, the two have absolutely no chemistry; there's more chemistry in geography class than in this "couple" of friends. I also didn't like the way the romance was introduced.

I also didn't like the way the romance was introduced. the damn thing with the two semi-straight lines going in convergence (aka love triangle) was also a pain in the ass for me. So I think that's it, the least they can give us from a drama that calls itself a romance is CHEMISTRY, which is lacking here. Another thing that annoyed me was the fact that he got mad at her for a stupid reason, just because she didn't tell him she was a fan of his. Man, she was within her rights, he was paying her a pittance to defend his case, living in her house for free, AND HE STILL HAS THE NERVE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE GIRL? Man, as people say nowadays, VERY RED FLAG.

BROOO the ml looks so much like Yang Yang

Maybe it's because of the age difference, right? He and FL are the same age, I think, although she's much more mature than him. I find him quite annoying sometimes and I force myself to skip scenes with him.

Why don't I see anyone talking about this drama?

Exactly, that's the point many don't understand. If you want to watch a romance drama, search for romance dramas. ZZA itself isn't in that category, but rather in mystery/wuxia. As you said, people who truly enjoy this genre, a classic wuxia but adapted, will really appreciate this work, which so far is very good. I saw other comments complaining about the acting, GUYS?! Nothing is good enough for you? I think the real point is that these people like to criticize.

Really, the best thing to do is let it go, as ZZ himself said, with a slight alteration: "if you've already jumped to conclusions before knowing my story, I have nothing to say." We should let people see for themselves what they've missed, and unfortunately, most aren't giving the show a chance simply because romance isn't the central theme, but rather a possible consequence of the characters' story. Perhaps it's this majority that's "boycotting" the reviews here.

You're welcome! Someone has to have the courage to state the obvious! I even thought about replying to this particular review, but I ended up letting it go.

YES! and it's something like, dude I don't like how an officer who is supposedly incorruptible is following the law in a totally incorruptible way lol

That's the point; there are still laws for the officials themselves. In the Song Dynasty, which is the era in which the drama takes place, officials and judges were strictly forbidden from killing and judging cases as capital punishment. ZZ himself says this in the drama. For the death penalty to occur, the case must be taken to the capital's prefecture to the EMPEROR, who has the authority to decide who lives and who dies. In other words, even though he is mistreated in every way, he strictly follows the law and doesn't allow it no loopholes for his enemies to use against him; that's what it means to be an incorruptible officer, that's what it means to follow the principles he himself holds.

YES! Finally someone talking about this! The guy is a court officer, not a god.

bro her is just like superman and Clark Kent

I am disappointed by the way ordinary people, who have never held positions of extreme importance, such as judges and court officers, tend to see ZZ's thinking as moralistic or something like that. How do you ordinary people think a justice officer should act? By killing everyone? No matter how heinous the crime, there are still laws. I saw people commenting that he shouldn't have protected the guy who...He kidnapped women to take to the pavilion, but man, that was his job, to gather evidence, and the bastard in question was proof that the definition of JUSTICE is truly fulfilled. That's it.The goal of the drama. If you don't like how real and effective justice handles cases, you shouldn't be watching dramas about justice, but rather about vigilantes. If that's the case, there's a drama for you.Very good, with an actor who looks a lot like Yang Yang, he's Taiwanese, and his name is Had I Not See the Sun.

A completely unnecessary romance

i totally agree with you, really! sometimes i wished into the show for help her in her decisions, because her friends don't comment about it, or worse, incentive her to be devoted to ml, bro, this in real life don't make any sense. in the beginning i don't agree with her parents, but in the instant she fell into a depression, God, i cried a lot
