The drama should be called Crown Prince's Family Drama

Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms - TMOPB
Yang Mi - YM
Ethan Juan - EJ
Mark Chao - MC
Legend of Fu Yao - LOFY
Lai Yi - LY

After watching TMOPB , I thought I'd never be able to find another male lead that would compliment YM as well as MC did.... Then I started watching LOFY and EJ stole my heart with his many mesmerising smiles.

EJ and LY were my absolute favourite characters of the whole series. Both magnificent in their own way; EJ as the kickass Crown Prince who always knew how to get his girl out of trouble and LY as the Divine Doctor with many tricks up his sleeve. Would it have been interesting to see our hero choose the world over our heroine? sure.. But then there wouldn't be a series to watch if he had. Would it have been better for the Divine Doctor to initially finish the job himself? oh yeah!

I felt that the story revolved around EJ's character and YM was just along for the ride. They would occasionally mention her destiny and hint about her true identity, but only near the second half did they realise, "oh yeah, this drama is called LOFY, we should probably talk about that too". YM felt like an afterthought when they got to her story and EJ was the main character.

Once you're half way through the series, everything will start to make sense and it'll all tie together. Although there were times when the series would do that whole 'montage-of-memories' every time someone would die, or almost die, and the plot twists stopped feeling twisty and were just predictable, but it was all worth it.

EJ and YM get their happily ever after and that's all that matters to me.
