Legacy!!
I have been watching C dramas for 5 years now. Started with Nirvana in fire which obviously is the OG drama. I have never done a review before. But for POJ I had to.The characters and cast as so beautiful written and chosen. The chemistry is so flawless. Every micro expression is so beautiful shot. I do not think there will be another drama like POJ again.
Although the drama was hyped because of ZL, but I think this drama is Tian Xiwei's drama. She was absolutely phenomenal. Her casting for Changyus was just perfect. I do not think anyone else would have done a better role than her. Like it already has, this drama is going to do wonders to her career.
What can I say about ZL other than he looks flawless. That face card is insane. The pheasant feather scene crushes all the entrances in Cdrama history.
Although the ending and the politics seemed a little rushed, but can't help but rate the drama the GOAT because of the sheer butterflies you feel when Changyus and Xie Zheng interact. Best thing is Changyu doesn't need any help, she is her own boss. Not like other drama where they show a helpless FL.
All in all I think, I will probably never go through the brilliance I have seen in POJ again. It would take something out of this world to match POJ
PS. Ofcourse this is my personal opinion.
