This started my obsession with Asian dramas
This story is epic. On a Lord of the Rings level of epic. But unlike Tolkein's story, where the endgame is foreshadowed from the start, when you think The Untamed is heading toward an inevitable conclusion through a predictable route, you'll find you're wrong. Enough complexity and powerful emotional impact to make you want to watch it again, once you finally understand how all of the pieces fit together (or to find that out). A good adaptation of an amazing novel. Since I didn't come to it as a BL fan, I'm okay with the romance being more suggested than explicit. Ah, it's so sweet! Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo are perfectly cast, as are all the main supporting cast.Was this review helpful to you?
My favorite couple
This story is spot-on in every way that counts. The sincerity and chemistry that Park Gyu-young and Kim Min-jae bring to their roles makes the emotional moments, ranging from searing pain to soaring joy, strike to the heart. The comedy pops, often catching you off guard. The supporting cast completely committed, making us empathize with their sorrows and celebrate their triumphs, It was hard to say good-bye to these terrific characters. I know I'll watch this series again. The soundtrack is great, it compliments the story perfectly. When I have to go out in the rain and cold in the stressful conditions of the pandemic, I know this OST will insulate me in a warm layer of happiness.Was this review helpful to you?
