~The best c-drama of 2021~ (in my opinion)
I just finished this drama minutes ago. My feelings are running high and I can not even put into words how this drama affected me. Before going into this, I will say this is MY ideal drama, so if you don’t like xianxia or emotional god dramas, then this might not be for you. But if you do, then I can almost guarantee that you will adore this drama.STORY: I will not go over the storyline, but rather highlight what makes it amazing. We start with a silly girl with virtually no power, but with a strong title. This is so unique and something that I have never seen before. The development for every character is outstanding and leaves you thinking. The plot is sometimes complicated if you are new to these types of dramas, but never too complicated to the point that I had to look it up. This means that it is the perfect balance and a perfect storyline.
ACTING: The acting left nothing to be desired. Every actor played their role perfectly, especially Xu Kai. Even the evil empress had impeccable acting, which almost makes you think you are in the real show.
MUSIC/OST: I appreciate OST a lot, especially in these types of dramas. This OST was absolutely mind blowing. Every time it plays it makes me tear up. At the last episode, I could not stand to know it was the last time it would play in the show.
OVERALL: This drama really makes you feel something, and if you want a drama that is absolutely groundbreaking, this is for you.

ACTING: The acting in this show was pretty good. It transported me into the world straight away. My only complaint is that some facial expressions were exaggerated in the beginning.
MUSIC: It was not that memorable, though it fit the respective scenes well.
REWATCH VALUE: I think this show is most definitely rewatchable, and never got boring.

ACTING: The acting in this show was actually pretty good. It was very enjoyable and I felt like the actors all had a great and very realistic connection. I still wonder how Gun was able to cry that much.
MUSIC: It was okay. It was not bad but it was not great. The OST was enjoyable but it was nothing amazing.
REWATCH VALUE: As I stated before it did get a bit boring at the middle point in the show, so I do not think it would be something I would rewatch.
