After watching Ashes of love it was hard for me to find something as great as it until I came across love and redemption. I am someone who just recently got into historic dramas and is very picky of what I watch, after a few time of reading good stuff about love and redemption I finally gave it a chance.
I love the story line! I think it had great plot and twists and I never saw coming and honestly I think it was because of the plot, had me finish all the episodes. Tbh, towards the end I got a little annoyed about the fact Si Feng was sacrificing SO much in comparison to Xuan ji, to the point it was so biased and annoying to watch. Not to mention, cheng yi's acting is superb! He got me heartbroken so many times but the actresses for FL is not so outstanding... towards the end I actually found her quite annoying and actually believed Si Feng does not deserve her!
This drama reminds me so much of Ashes of love which kept me watching, similarly to AOL the FL is not "normal" xuan ji doesn't have her 6 senses likewise how jinmi did not know what love mean't. Difference here is, even after xuan ji finds all her 6 senses she was still stubborn almost pathetic!
