I've just finished the first two episodes. Honestly how refreshing, such gorgeous natural cinematography, colours and makeup its truly is wonderful to watch. The plot is also mysterious but they do reveal information in increments. I'm also liking the slower more careful pace, ngl I was worried that a lot of newer dramas were going to follow a more 'mini drama' style of filming, where the plot is thrown at you at break neck speed and there is an abundance of slow motion shots for no reason. Its nice to see a drama that dials it back and allows the plot to unfold like a long form poem. Truly, truly gorgeous. I'd liken the style to dramas like Flourished Peony and Story of Minglan.
girls should i start watching it? (i have exams this month)
Focus on your exams! The drama will still be there. And tbh people hype up everything, you won't be able to tell if the drama is good until all the eps release
It reminds me of a short mini drama vibe, very fast paced, its good, but I hope this won't be the trend for future dramas, because I still love long slower paced dramas
I was planning on watching Ashes to Crown first because its shorter but then I saw the trailer for this drama. I absolutely adore the cinematography its dark, moody, rustic and gorgeous, I love the use of colours, I hope we get some pretty mountain imagery tooπ
