LOVED the cinematography, it definitely lived up to the hype. That said, I expected much more from the grand finale fight scene and ended up feeling a little disappointed. Perhaps my expectations were simply too high because the build-up from the very first episode was so strong. The pacing near the end also seemed rushed, especially the resolution between the uncle and nephew, which felt surprisingly easy after such a long and intense conflict.

As for the romance, as much as I liked the main couple, the second couple completely stole the spotlight. They were given some of the most memorable and steamy scenes, and their chemistry was absolutely chemistry-ing at its finest. Every interaction between them had me completely invested. And YES, this drama also gave us top-tier villain face cards that absolutely deserve all the hype they've been getting online (Deng Kai and Lin Mu Ran). As for Zhang Linghe, I have to admit that out of all the dramas I've seen him in, this one captures his beauty the best. Every frame felt like a visual feast, and he looked absolutely breathtaking throughout the entire drama.
