The untamed is the show that will leave an unerasable mark on your soul :)

The first thing that I would like to mention, is that I was not familiar with the modao zu shi story before watching the drama at all.
I have decided that it is time to fix that, and my friend suggested to me either to watch anime or drama first, and than read the novel. I think I will be forever thankful for that, because I could easily remember all the characters and clans' names.

I consider myself being a pretty experienced drama consumer for quite a long time, but I tend to prefer shorter stories, that I can binge-watch during one night lol. So, if by any chance, you are as used to a ''k-drama only 16 episodes'' type of situation as me, you may too share my deep dread when you see a drama that has +26 episodes.
As a fellow impatient and fast binge-watcher I assure you, you will fall in love with the plot, the characters (even the villains in this story are so charming that you can't hold grudges against them for a long time hehe), and the music in this show.

The two main actors are undoubtedly, the best for the leading characters. I applaud whoever casted them because Xiao Zhan is a huge discovery for me (ilovehimsomuchohmygoshfjek). Wang Yibo on the other hand was already known to me as a used-to-be-in-uniq-and-left-Korean-showbiz type of guy, but he also performed in drama phenomenally and I really envy him his poker face !:D

To wrap my emotional rambling up, I am helplessly in love with the modao zu shi universe, despite all my doubts about it being not what I would usually go for.
Side note: if you came for the bl aspect, it is absent in the drama, BUT the unconditional and honest love between the two main leads is undeniable so IMHO it is definitely worth your time!

P.S this was the first-ever review I have written so thank you so much for reading it till the end! xoxo
