Mockery of priests and detectives plus corrupt officials .. All farce nothing serious

I watched this drama in 2022 because of all the hype and the raving reviews about it ,, also many dramas quoted from this drama some scenes as if it was Iconic ,, I had to watch it
at first I found it ridiculous and irritating at times ... they introduced a heavy criminal case but they handled it horribly with all the mockery and the comedic parts as if it's not a real case to solve
they showed the corruption in the most irritating way ,, those people are evil and they act funny not joker funny but stupidly funny
I didn't like the first part of the drama and hated the female lead to be honest ,, she got on my nerves but then after episode eight something changed and it became more serious and less irritating ,,, people tried to make amends and to act right
I began to love the drama and endured all the stupid fun also the tenth scenes of people eating thorough out every episode
Every single episode you will find that there is people eating scene every three to five minutes ,, it was un bearable especially while I'm fasting ,, I noticed how much food and eating scenes are there
My review seemed more like complaining about the drama but honestly I did like it the second half of it especially towards the ending ,, I cried towards the ending and fell in love with all of them even the female lead ,, she grew on me
didn't like the poop scene though it was disgusting ,, the character that was wearing bob marley's hair was annoying and not funny at all
I recommend it for comical relieve not as a serious drama
the male lead is amazing ,, I love his acting and you will love the rest of the cast towards the ending

Cringiest drama ,, worst GFX , Sismance more than Bromance ,, plot in pieces ,, boring evil leads

I've watched this one because I love Bromance dramas and some of my friends suggested it
I was a lot confused at the beginning then it became draggy then it became all about the girls then it was trial after trial but all with Horrible GFX cartoonish laughable level add to that the awkward acting from the male leads
The one thing I've liked was the acting of the older male lead who plays the mentor or wangia nothing more
the younger male lead was better at acting in previous dramas I've watched but not this one ,, I don't know why ,, even his character was over acting a lot
I skipped 80% of every single episode
I skipped all the evil side's scenes ,, I skipped all the female's sis mance scenes , I've skipped the GFX cartoonish scenes
this one was a big fail didn't satisfy me one bit
I won't be watching this one again even if it has more seasons

Very slow paced drama but overall good wuxia fight scenes in it

I've watched this drama after Love and redemption so It was pound to be compared to it especially it has the same Female lead
Also I love the Male lead's acting so much ,, he's one of the best chinese actors who actually can act different roles with a lot of depth ,, he's real self is so loud and too energetic person ,, in his other dramas his face was so expressive and he was fussy most of the times moves and talks a lot ,, that was more of his real personality from what I've seen in behind the scenes his personality but in this drama he's too calm , composed ,,, really really cold and mostly week because of his poisoned character so he did a great job portraying a character that is totally the opposite of his own character
The female lead here wasn't good match for him or she wasn't wrote right for his character in the script ,, I felt her love and care for her senior martial art brother stronger than the male lead's most of the time ,, I felt she was supposed to love her senior martial brother but they got separated and the male lead got in the way practically forcing her to love him
so the romance story here wasn't as good as Love and redemption drama at all ,, there she was perfect fit with the male lead even her intimate kissing scenes there were more believable than here
the other actors did their characters as they can very nicely ,, I can't complain about them ,, they were really good even the annoying ones they were written in the story that way to annoy us LOL but really all the actors did great job in their roles
.....
The story
the plot was really really draggy after episode 12 ,, it diverted to other useless side stories that has nothing to do with the main plot or the main lead ,, they just went to an Island exploring a family dispute with no connection to the main leads at all just that it included them like guests in this story ,,, It went on for about ten episodes then returned to the main course of the plot then divert again to another side story ,, it was like that switching to side stories of other characters
this drama could have been much shorter than this if they just stick to the main plot and the main lead's story
so the story wasn't very good overall because of all the draggy side stories included also it had some very stupid judgments from the leads like when the male lead threw a tantrum and spoiled the only medicine that could have been cured him because he was angry at the female lead ,, I was so angry about that
sometimes they made the Master of the snow tower like a child acting out in a very stupid way
.......
the ending ten episodes or sow were so good even if they killed a lot of characters but I was interested watching the final part of the drama it was fast paced and thrilling after all the boring side stories
so if you're not a patient person skip a lot in the middle to reach the third part of the drama then watch it you won't miss much from the middle
,,,,
the production was amazing in every way cinematography ,, costumes ,,,, makeup ,, graphics and the wuxia fights were the best
it was really enjoyable to watch
overall this drama is very good but needs patience with it ,, you can't binge it on a sitting or watch it as if it has every episode interesting ,, you will be disappointed

Draggy wuxia drama plus cold female lead

I had high hopes for this when I decided to watch it ,, I thought it was really good story melodramatic wuxia drama
I saw some clips here and there and I love the male lead so I was really hoping it's good
The OST (Sound tracks) and the graphics are really good also the actors are amazing except for the female lead
but I was surprised of How slow and draggy it is ,, I thought may be at the beginning only but it went for ages ,,,, Yes some fast wuxia fights and they were good too but the story was lacking alot
The romance scenes were soo long ,, people taking dramatic pauses a lot ,,, thinking ,,, talking ,,,, crying whatever they took along time playing that
The male lead insert himself in the female lead's life for no reason other than he's still hang up on her since childhood so Cliche'
also the female lead didn't care much about him most of the drama ,, she was mostly acting out and treating him badly
that wasn't a good romantic story at all
The other Romantic stories were much better than the main one
The male lead put himself through so much pain and suffering for a cold female lead who doesn't appreciate anything he did for her to the last few episode she was that heartless ,, I'm not saying he didn't do anything wrong either
he was obsessed with her and she was obsessed with her master
I didn't feel any love from the female lead even when she's trying to love him ,,, Bad acting maybe or the writing
I didn't like the last part of the drama either ,,, it was A mess
why did they kill Chang ge ??? for no reason at all they just killed him and his lover ,,, he wasn't supposed to die ,, his friends were going to rescue him but somehow his girlfriend thought of a ridiculous death for them both
Overall this drama is really disappointing
other than some good whump scenes and some good wuxia fights with good music ,, it's really doesn't worth your time

Interesting story with great acting but a little slow

The story is very good I enjoyed it very much also the actors did their best ,, I loved every character ,, there were no annoying female lead may be started goofy at first but then she grew up as a character on later episodes ,,, the male lead was the best ,, I loved every scene he was in ,, I did get bored a little in the middle because of some draggy episodes but not too long and there were some missing scenes that got me confused sometimes but overall the drama is really enjoyable to watch
it will get really sad in the second half and painful sometimes but that was the angst of the drama feeling what the male lead is feeling ,,,, I felt so emotional at the last episodes but is was really good
I hoped for more from the male lead's character ,, hoped he would do more to surprise everyone but he didn't not so much
I loved the second female lead more than any character in this drama because she was the best of the best of all of them
when I finished this drama I felt sad that's why I went to rewatch love and redemption again
