5.0 out of 5 stars A Hit Drama of 2021
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2021
Let me start you off with six reasons why you should watch this:
1) A dark horse drama that became an instant hit overnight in the first of 2021, and might be for the whole 2021. ATM, it has a rating of 9.7 on IMDb and 8.3 on Douban (Chinese rating site which is similar to IMDb, and people there are usually hard on the rating)
2) A BL drama that propelled the two males actors to stardom. Their popularity skyrocketed because of Word of Honor.
3) Censorship! Word of Honor doesn’t know who she is ? Everyone who watched it kept on asking how in the world did this drama passed the censorship?
4) If you’re a fan of the novel, “Faraway Wanderers” by Priest, you’ll love this. The scriptwriter is a fan of the author, so she kept the characters and story as closely to the novel as possible. She extended some stuffs to make the story longer because the novel is pretty short. Also, she added poetry, idioms, easter eggs and so on to depict the underlying love confessions between the main leads. She’s such a brilliant writer despite she’s just a rookie.
5) If you’re a fan of Wuxia, you’ll love this drama. Awesome Wuxia fighting styles in here. You’ll be amazed and certainly entertained.
6) Shameless flirting 101! You might become an expert flirt after you’ve done with this drama. Haha but seriously, one of the main leads Wen Ke Xing is a king of flirt. You’ll be blushing and laughing at what he spouts out of his mouth. Despite that they overdubbed some of his flirting dialogues, you will still enjoy it as much. Side note: I highly recommend you to watch the lip reading video for this drama to get the best experience of what he actually said ?
I hope those six reasons alone will help rouse your curiosity. Go and watch it and you’ll know why. But here’s my review so far to help you make up your mind.
Well I just finished up to episode 15 so far on Youku’s YouTube channel, but let me say that this drama got me hooked so badly. I dropped the other dramas that I was watching to just watch this because my mind only think of this drama and nothing else ? For your information, I normally don’t watch BL drama. So this is pretty shocking to me that I fell hard for this one. I just adore the main leads in here. Their relationship and chemistry is to die for. You can feel and see that they are each other’s soulmate through and through.
Both leads are considered anti-heroes. They are not black and white nor good or bad. They both have tragic stories that shaped them the ways they are. It’s a story of redemption. And I can’t wait to see to the end where their paths will take them.
Despite the low budget production, this drama certainly doesn’t look like one. The scenery, costumes, fighting scenes are all done beautifully. The acting is top notch, especially for our leads Simon Gong and Zhang Zhe Han. They embodied their characters Wen Ken Xing and Zhou Zi Shu down to a T. I can’t imagine anybody else taking the roles but them. And gosh, their chemistry! They have one of the most explosive chemistry I’ve ever seen on screen, especially between two men. You will fall in love with their expressions, flirting, touching, interactions and everything. And omg, Wen Ke Xing’s flirting is on another level. He’s the king of all flirt! ? You will see when you watch it.
Overall, highly recommended! I can’t say enough about this beautiful drama. I will update again when I finish watching it. I have a good feeling that I will still love it as much as the first time.
