I Didn't Expect Much, But This Drama Ruined Me
I was interested in xianxia dramas from the very beginning, and I often saw people talking about *Till the End of the Moon*, so I decided to give it a try. At first, I didn't have very high expectations for this drama, but it turned out to be absolutely amazing—seriously, very lit. From Episode 1 all the way to Episode 33, I didn't find a single boring episode. It was so engaging that I even watched it slowly so I wouldn't finish it too quickly.
Going back to the story itself, all of the characters have clear reasons behind their personalities and actions. What I really regret is that the main couple had such a heartbreaking story across all three lifetimes: Tantai Jin and Ye Xiwu, Mingye and Sangjiu, and Cang Jiumin and Li Susu. I feel that Tantai Jin put in an incredible amount of effort. Ye Xiwu loved him deeply as well, but she also had many people to save and responsibilities to fulfill, while Tantai Jin only had Ye Xiwu in his life. Every misunderstanding seemed to drag them into a living hell, yet there was always a resolution to their conflicts, which kept their bond and relationship strong.
I even feel that the biggest villain in the drama, Bingchang, didn't play as significant a role in the overall story as I expected, simply because the struggles and conflicts between the main couple themselves were already so overwhelming. I haven't finished the drama yet, but I already know that one of them will die in the end.
I’ll probably watch one of Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu's modern dramas afterward to help myself move on from this emotional roller coaster. I can honestly say that *Till the End of the Moon* is the best drama I have ever watched so far, and I will never stop recommending it to other people. The chemistry between the leads and the CGI are outstanding and nearly perfect. There aren't too many side characters slowing down the plot, and the efforts they make for each other in their love story are so moving that viewers can truly feel their pain.
Overall, this drama is incredible, but it's also one of the most emotionally traumatic dramas I've ever watched. It's the kind of show that leaves a deep impression on you, but perhaps not one you'd want to rewatch. Tantai Jin fought so hard from beginning to end, and in my opinion, he is the most tragic character in the entire story, having to accept the fate of becoming the Devil God. 😭❤️
