Watching this drama was a thrilling experience for me, especially since my passion for billiards made it a perfect choice. The storyline unfolded a delightful love tale, and I was particularly captivated by Leo Wu's performance. His expressive eyes and body language flawlessly conveyed the nuances of love, while his soft, alluring voice simply stole my heart. However, while Zhao Jin Mai's portrayal wasn't lacking per se, I struggled to fully connect with the vivacity of her character. Nevertheless, the "Amidst a Snowstorm of Love" storyline added a charming touch to the narrative.

The billiard uniforms were undeniably stylish, and I couldn't help but admire Zhao Jin Mai's pants sets, especially the breathtaking pleated dress she wore. Leo Wu and Wang Xing Yue effortlessly carried off their outfits, with Wang Xing Yue's undeniable charm leaving a lasting impression. As a billiards enthusiast, I appreciated learning about snooker through this drama and reminiscing about my skills, particularly when it came to mastering tricky positions behind the back, a move I've always excelled at. Armed with my pool stick, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the entire cast for making the world of billiards so exhilarating.

In my view, billiards is a sport that deserves more recognition, and I'm delighted to see it gaining traction, especially with its inclusion in the Olympics in certain countries. The campaign to include billiards in the 2024 Olympics in Paris, initiated in July 2021, is a testament to its growing popularity and global appeal.

This was an excellent fantasy drama. It had a lot of ups and downs in the storyline, but I enjoyed it. Li Hong Yi (Xiao Se and a Prince) was extremely good. His acting kind of reminds me of or looks like Allen Ren whom I love. I love how he made this character smooth and calm and made the prince's role believable. Liu Xue Yi (Wu Xin), I mean wow, him playing a monk to shave his beautiful hair off. I’m impressed. It was kind of hard for me to see him playing a monk, but he was great at it. Kudos Liu Xue Yi! Ao Rui Peng (Lei Wu Jie) played this role with humor. I loved his character. Lin Bo Yang (Sikong Qian Luo) was good at handling that spear for sure. Loved her! Flora Dai (Ye Ruo Yi) Her character surely got injured a lot but loved the role she played, my first time seeing her. Li Xin Ze (Tang Lian), the hairdresser got it right, loved the gray! He is part of the team of the Blood of Youth and loved him.

The storyline was superb, I appreciate the team and how they fought for justice. I loved the clues they were looking for and the adventure they gave. I thank the Producers/directors and the actors and actresses. The visuals were excellent. The wardrobe for that period was just beautiful and exciting. The visuals which include the martial arts, wow, what can I say? The fantasy was a reality for me. I loved it! I thank the team of The Blood of Youth.

Byeon's Apology!

I watched Perfect Crown twice already.

The writers and directors of this drama should be the ones addressing the controversy, not the actor.

Fans should understand that before a drama is released, scripts, scenes, and story direction go through many levels of approval. Actors perform the roles they are hired to portray, but they do not always control the deeper message or final direction of the production.

If the drama was approved for distribution on major platforms like Disney+, then responsibility should not rest only on the shoulders of one actor. A production involves writers, directors, producers, investors, and distributors together.

Byeon Woo-seok gave an emotional performance, and I personally do not believe he should carry the entire burden alone. Accountability should also include the creative team behind the project.

An actor bringing a character to life is different from creating the script itself.

Just my personal opinion after watching the drama carefully twice and now I will watch it a third time, fourth, or more... I loved it! I love Byeon Woo-seok and I.U.

This was really a cute storyline, I enjoyed it. I needed to smile and this made me smile all the way to the last episode. Liu Te playing Gu Rong Yan is cute and being a new actor, I thought he did very well. LT is very tall at 6.2. As he also towered over Ling Mei Shi who played Su Jing Jing. I loved the strong character she played. The storyline I loved. It was different than other storylines. I love everything Liu Te wore, he looks good in leather. The one outfit that Ling Me Shi wore, the all-black bodyguard outfit, and those boots oh my goodness, those boots were the best thing I have seen in boots in a long time.

Usually, in dramas, I view similar storylines but different actors/actresses with different scenes. This a drama that a family can watch together. A lot of writers are stuck in history with rich versus lowly (poor or middle-class) people. You will love the ending.

Seo In Guk is another Korean actor I watch a lot. I love this actor. He can play any part, he is so talented. In this role, he played Nam Han Joon who was serious, comedic, and romantic and did awesomely great. He is extremely handsome. I noticed that he loves to play eerie movies. lol Oh Yeon Seo, I have viewed her in other dramas but not like this one. I will remember this drama. She plays Han Jae Hee who is very strong and her Martial Art performance was great. I will watch other dramas she has done already. Kwak Shi Yang and Kang Mi Na also played their parts very well. I thank all the other supporting roles and the team for making this cute drama. I loved it.

Lee Seung-Gi, why would you pick that character to play! I don't ever want to see a great actor like yourself play that part! OMG, I didn't see that coming AT ALL! My mouth had dropped open and actually hit the ground... Y'all did great in keeping this from the viewers. That Kill House was just too much. I was laughing so hard on an episode where it was just too funny... it had water underneath... not going to give away the episode... The last episodes in Season 1 were so confusing... I didn't understand until the end of it what was being done. Your laughter Lee Seung-gi I can just listen to it over and over. You know how babies laugh... you just want to hear it all the time because it makes you smile... that's how your laughter affects me. I need to put your laughter in a ring tone. It will have me in a good mood all the time.

This story was so cute and the servant of Prince Yi Rim had me laughing. It is amazing in this era that Historians were created to write every move and words of nobles. It reminds me of the court reporters we have in the American Court Judiciary system.

Shin Se Kyung who played the Historian Goo Hae Ryung Cha Eun Woo who played Prince Yi Rim did great and I became an immediate fan. I did look at their age and Cha Eun Woo did great acting for his age and very mature for his age. Whereas Shin Se Kyung who is like 7 years older than Cha Eun Woo and you wouldn't know that if you didn't research their birthdates. I loved it. Afterward, I researched Cha Eun Woo and found that he belongs to a Korean Music Group. This young man can sing! I love some of the songs he sang. I love how the Asian Movie makers have their main leads sing the main title song. I will check out their other TV shows or movies they made as well. Thank you to all the Cast, Writers, Visuals, and the music.

There are several American movies that have a similar storyline and I didn't like any of them. I have it to give Yang Mi and Wallace Huo deep respect for doing this project. I loved the action scenes of life being repeated over and over... wished we could do do-overs like this movie. I never would've guessed the ending, it totally threw me off. Wallace played his part... I just loved his facial expressions when he gets serious. Kudos to the young man who played the son. I saw this a couple of months ago but decided to rewatch again today. Now, this is the Yang Mi I love, she is all in this. Thank you and Respect to the "Fatal Countdown: Reset" team, awesome job.

This drama is adorable.

Chen Zhe (Yuan Xiao) and Wu Di Shen (Yue Nan Xing) Oh my goodness, these two were the cutest couple. They displayed great chemistry and were believable. I loved the couple of Luo Ming Jie (Lu Zi Chen) and Qu Jing Jing (Ye Qing) although their chemistry was not 100% but doable. The writers got the storyline right, it was different from other Time Travel dramas. The only similarity to the others is that the water was the sole source of time travel. I need to see a time-travel drama that doesn't use water. A drama that can pull out my emotions deserves a 10. I didn't pay much attention to the music because I was too focused on the story. You will be satisfied to watch all the episodes... don't skip or you will miss some great parts.

I was really focused on the storyline until I started seeing a certain pattern in this writer. Huang Xiao Ming who stars as Chi Yun was and is always spectacular. I did love this character! He was upbeat and humorous in this role. Victoria Song who played Mu Qing Mo as always did very well in her role. I felt bad for these two characters. If you watch this, you will know why. Going back to the storyline... I have a one-word question. Why? That's it!

I am so glad that Peter Sheng was in this but again to the writer... Why?

To the rest of the actors and actresses, you did the best you could in this drama. You all made this story! The visuals were great. Liberty I felt was my bias in this drama, wish I had one of those. lol

Loved it!

First, I want to say that Evernight 2 sound is powerful! I wished they would've started where Evernight 1 ended. I liked the first main lead actor, Arthur Chen. I must say that in Evernight 2 the main lead, Dylan Wang, is doing a fantastic job. I won't compare the two actors because both did an amazing job in portraying Ning Que! Dylan Wang is a little more energetic, the romance and the affection he had with Ireine Son's character Sang Sang. I was wowed! I still can't get over how old Ireine is. Of course, she did amazing in the first season as well as the second season. I fell in love with her acting ability. She is 5ft 2 inches tall (I'm only 5ft 1in) and Arthur Chen and Dylan Wang just towers over her at 6 ft. I love it because that was my life! Not the story life. lol

The costume designs were beautiful especially Emperor Tang's Gold Warrior Armour Costume! Episode 17 and 18 is the best! I feel that fantasy visuals are a lot better than the first season. I mean the visuals were incredibly done. The storyline was very good, I did get taken away with a couple of episodes at the end but kept my focus but anxious to get to the end. Again, I love a drama that brings my emotions to the front, the crying, wanting to put my hand through the screen, I wanted to hug Dylan Wang so many times to comfort him! I won't comment on any other actor because they all did a fantastic job of getting the screenwriter's story. Again, I do have to say you can see the acting abilities and experience of the older generation, I applaud them. Well maybe I will talk about one more actor and that is... Liu Ruo Gu, this kid was so good just in a guest role. I did see a couple of mistakes that the producers may not have caught but I will let that go because the storyline made up for it. Great job everyone and thank you to the whole team of Ever Night 2.

I feel that if you haven't seen the first season, then you must see it before you see season 2 to know the beginning of the two main characters' story and how it began.

It took me a while to get into this drama. The first 10 episodes were really dull and I don't blame the actors/actresses, but I do blame the storyline. The story did pick up after episode 10. Cheng Xiao (Lu Qing Qing) is the type of actress that needs to grow on me because my first impression was okay but not someone I can truly praise right now. I would have to see more acting from her since this is just my 2nd time viewing her. She really does well in dancing and singing. I did love the main lead actor Jason Gu (Nangong Yi Xin) but this was my first time seeing him play a serious role. I loved all of the martial art and the fantasy was great. The costumes of the Empress were all beautiful, never seen that design before and I applaud whoever is the designer. Thank you to all the actors/actresses who did very well.

I usually will talk about how good actors acting skills in their portrayal of the character they played but I will not for this drama... I will talk about how good the whole team did on the topic of rescuing lives in a disaster situation. The whole team was great. The visuals of the ice crevice scenes were incredible toward the end. I have only one critique. I am wondering if the writers had to cut scenes out toward the end. The way he got from the cave sliding on water ice wasn't shown... also I didn't care too much for the ending. I still gave it a good rating because of the awareness of how it is important for these programs to exist to rescue lives. I thank all those who were involved in making this drama.

NOTE: I have been watching Luo Lun Xi for a few years now. When I saw him in Ashes of Love, I felt he had a healthy-looking body frame. One other was And the Winner is Love and Love is Sweet his body frame looked healthy too. I was concerned that his body frame was very thin in this drama, I don't know if he had to lose weight for this drama or if I hope he is not going through some other things. I am just a person who worries about the people I care about.
