Truly a MASTERPIECE
If you are looking for a cdrama unlike any other~ then you will not regret trying this one!!!
It’s a historical costume drama set in fictional Han dynasty.
The hero and heroine have broken childhood and fate brought them to each other. one has a family but abandoned from newborn and has never experienced love and does not know how to love. While the other one was orphaned and adopted by the emperor who treats him better than his own blood due to filial piety, sorry don’t want to give spoilers.
The road to love for these two is not an easy one, so it is a roller coaster ride. But in the end, because of deep love for each other and the love shown by people who really cares for them, they became WHOLE again.
Love story is so Romanctic and so touching whereas the hero is not trying to change the heroine in spite of her imperfections but accepts her wholeheartedly for who she is and then brings out the best in her.
Having read the book, I am quite impressed with the adaptation, the novel is already great and for the drama to make subtle changes where the book is lacking…simply amazing !!!
To sum it up without giving too much spoilers, this drama has:
- REALISTIC characters
-Deep, complex plot and intelligent writing
- author is the same from Minglan~ but this one she elevated her standards even more
- story is very dynamic: deep love, loyalty, mystery, investigation, revenge, full of blood and not just your typical romantic love story
- Excellent direction, cinematography, screenwriter from the rise of the phoenixes
- the best production team and supporting cast
- and best of all: 2 of China’s youngest and finest stars in Zhao Lu Si and Wu Lei> both nailing their characters to a tee
In my humble opinion this is the first cdrama at it’s finest . In my books it is already a CLASSIC and one for the ages … and the best part is yet to come, just EPIC
