Based on :hidden secrets of martial art in two swords
I decided to watch this drama because of main male lead ,he is ultimate . I had seen all his historical based drama and in every drama he just nailed it.Come to story .
As I written in title the story about to find the secrets of two mentioned sword because of this some people selfishly killed the innocent people and the male lead thinks that to save the innocent is his obligations. So when he was doing this many people come across in his each phase of life and in each phase of his life he lost his important person.
At the end secret reveal and it went under wrong hand but everything went fine at the last .
One thing disappoint me that the chemistry between the leads started at the end's few episodes . As I like love story so I wanted to see their scenes equally than other scenes.

It is based on true story ,so I can't comment much about what should had been done or what not
I understand the main theme of the story that how the people endured? But many things confusing me ,First when story started it introduced about what was the story about that when Japanese invaded in Korea and how the families in generations faced the hardship so according to my knowledge ,korea got independence in 1945 and Japanese left country . But when the story actually started it had shown the life of korean in cities of Japan ,not in Korea so this confused me.
Secondly every episodes started with different dates
First episode started with the year 1989 in the same episode it took into a another year and there was no change in the personality of the characters for example in the first episode the drama showed a man who was in new york and talking about that he can change the deal and then the story took the year from 1989 to the year after1989 I forgot the year . What I wanted to say when the year changed the story showed Lee Min Ho so I thought he was the man who was talking about the deal but when story went further I came to know that man and Lee min Ho were the two different characters . In every episodes story showed different years but the characters personality as it is this confused me .
Thirdly story showed suddenly some flashbacks in running story that not confused me much but every thing got mixed up .
Fourth what happened to her husband at the last and what happened to Lee Min Ho character .
Only I understand the story which introduced the very start of the drama but all the episodes confused me.
Not properly executed the story .

Sad ending but story was so good and emotional
First time I like to write first about acting . Too good really too good . All disciples acting were too good .they acted so naturally that I cried . It looked like that something happening in real and I am helplessly watching it . Last few episodes were so touchy that I can't help to stop my tears . I never want to see somei bad happening to good people in real as well in reel life .After doing so much ill what Liu Zi Xing got ,he himself knew that he will die in three years but his selfishness not only destroyed him but also the ones he loved . Power really makes people blind .
Empress just to have power killed her own son . By watching few episodes I felt that first time emperor had no jealousy towards his uncle or hatred that he one day take his throne insist this he blindly trust his uncle but the emperor's mother in greed of power killed her own son . And what she got in return a terrible death. She tangled in her trap .
Story was good though I was waiting to see their chemistry ,their love story to start ,waiting to see them together but nothing happened like that which disappointed me .
First time it had happened that I like the story which didn't have happy ending and love story .
Really story was good . I already written about the acting of supporting characters but the main leads are main lead ultimate acting both male and female lead.
Ren Jia Lun's acting was too amazing . I love to see his acting.

Some episodes good ,some are bore and some can bear
Drama starts with their breakup and next scene showed that she was writing an novel in which she has written her story .Then story went to flashback about how they meet ,how their soul exchange ,what type of ups-down they had faced in their relationship ,what was the reason because of which they broke up and how they had a happy ending
But starting scene of the drama is not connected with the ending scene . So this I felt like awkward . I think they should synchronised this scene .
Male lead actor acting was very good specially when he turned into a girl .
Some of the Supporting character's story was not properly executed or written ,specially those who live with the male character that two boys and a girl and Female lead character's doctor friend ,this character could become a powerful character but his story also not powerful .

Good story but lengthy
After their backup ,I felt that the writer stretch the story too much . He wanted her to hate him but every moment of him towards her not only confused her but viewer's also . Basically what he wanted ,he wanted to take revenge as she trust her brother or he wanted her to realized her mistake of believing her brother or he wanted her to hate him as they same time he didn't want her to love someone else and move on .At some point I don't like direction of the drama ,he loved her so much that he can't imagine anybody else , he didn't want to touch or kiss anybody else . Then why to show her he actually kiss somebody's else not one time but two -three more times . I think kissing somebody's else that she was not in his mind and heart . So I think kissing shouldn't be there between male lead and other girl.
Rest is good.

First time don't like the female lead character
Too much annoyed female's lead character and sometime her mother . Man sacrifices everything for her instead of understanding him ,she herself creating misunderstanding and when misunderstanding gets cleared instead of living mannerly or I can living nicely ,she pulled the things more and over react .I like the thing that woman should be treat equally just like a man but it doesn't mean that woman becomes selfish ,I mean to prove herself she hurting others .
To run any relationship mutual understanding ,trust and little bit compromise are needed from both sides.
Love story started too early which spoils the mood ,I thought that he would take time to realize his feelings towards her and then some jealous moments which make him sure about his feelings and then he pursue her.
May be drama first showing her negative character then make her realise her mistakes and then they would have happy ending but she never accept her mistake and he always trying to mend their relationship which gave the happy ending to the drama.
One thing I didn't understand how she got pregnant second time .
Though drama had a happy ending but it was a bad ending .

Some more episodes
To see the number of episodes ,I said thank God because historical types dramas always have more than 35 episodes but when ending reached I asked why there are only 28 episodes.Drama started with a good note . Starting few episodes were funny . But love story is short means not much romantic scenes. As soon as love story started , misunderstanding entered and brought hatred and when hatred got over ,drama is over.
That's why felt little bit more episodes should be there.
About characters all are excellent.
Plus point of this drama that all characters have happy endings except second lead ,though he also got happy ending but still felt that he should have the charming princess at the end.
I want to see their baby in that heaven place in this way drama has the best ending .This I think so.
As a whole I enjoyed watching the drama.
Songs were also good

Little complicated love story
Girl who struggle to meet the requirements of her family but she hide her struggling life from her family because she didn't want her family to be worried. Still she wishes to give them happy life. Do she did lots of part time job. At last she got permanent job but it was not according to her level means she was educated passed the university with good grade so that job was not according to her level but it was permanent job she took it and hide the position of work from family also ,she encountered with a person who was clean freak and was her boss and thathow their little complicated story begin.
All three love story is very good and nice .
Acting also . Lead actor's mother character also very good.
But story didn't much impactful.
One time watch.

Not at all interesting story.
Starting episodes were so boring but want to know what had happened to the one who got disappeared since first episode ,it had been shown that he was died but I always thought that he was not died but only because of this reason I continued to watch the drama and it was worth watching but so bid twist they shown in very last part of the last episode that after watching it everyone would say oh my god there will be second season .If there is second season please change the lead couple because they did attract me towards their acting and love story .instead of them I like captain love story as well as acting , all the time I thought that they should be the lead couple . The one who disappeared in the very first episode he also very cool . I wanted to see him as lead in second episode.

Emotional but has some funny elements
Very nice drama ,emotional and amazing acting specially the lead actor. He is so brilliantly did acting ,I was totally attached with the character . Somehow he has been started his life somehow he is starting to move on but his past came in front of his eyes and slowly slowly he came to know so much that he felt sorry a lot and secondly after getting g second chance and he came to know it just for 49 days that was deviated for him but again he is ready to face reality.It is sad as well as happy ending.
Too good drama . I like male lead actor friend also because of him there is some funny scene as well as mae lead also did some funny scene .
Balanced drama.

I am not able to decide , wheather I like the drama or not...
Everyday ,I wait for this drama to get Eng sub ,so it is shown that I have interest in drama but as ending was approaching I had so many expectations with this drama . In starting of the drama ,Jerry Yan's character was bold and strict and extrovert .The charcter had an accident and due to some reasons he was starting living with Shen Yue , after this this character's personality suddenly changed ,he started speak less ,shy character ,having so much in heart which had been seen in his face but unable to say .He felt jealous but not do much by his actions ,this character become boring . In some scenes of the drama had been shown that female lead's actress father so much concerned about his daughter's life , about her marriage . . So I thought at the end he would proposed her and get marry but nothing happened like that . I had seen more chemistry between other two pairs and like that too but I had more expectations with them ,I want more ,I felt something is missing in their part ( main lead character) ,their friends pairing is far better then them . So for me it is 50 - 50 drama ,not so good but not so bad.Was this review helpful to you?

Though last part of last episode I don't like much .I expect more .
A cute love story where couple falling in love as well as shining during achieving their respective goal or a dream
So dream is not the one which is shine .It is a person who shines while achieving the dream .
Second couple (that doctor one ) also very cute and he cried when his girlfriend told some sweets words to him was so cute. I like this pairing more than the first lead couple.
This drama also shows that how parents get involved with their child's dream and how they become so possessive when their child get hurt. To achieve a goal we
should just focus on us while achieving it no need to think how strong our competitor ,we just to compete ourself for our better performance . We should not brings our frustration in between our relationship ,make assure people around us that such hardship will not break us so they get convince and less worried about us
So all these thing had shown in the drama.

Nothing i had found new in this story ,already watched many chinese drama had a same story a girl from her school's time had a crush and she followed him till last and then give up then he realised her feeling and try to pursue her but what difference i found that she never said to him about hers feeling but he found out accidently ..many parallel love stories in this drama where few of them unite and rest follow their path and accept the present .I didn't understand her cousin story ,what is the ending of his story ... ?Basically this story wants to convey that love can't be achieve forcefully , to pursue a love sometime ones waste their precious time of their life .So just let it go and accept the reality of life and deal with ,what is yours it will come back but what is not yours whatever you do it will be never yours.
