Well made and awesome costume

I have never written any review and here I am writing this. This drama is very entertaining and with good values. I have not fast-forwarded any episode other than the credits at the end of each episode. This is the second drama I have not done any fast-forwarding. The first was Ashes of Love.

First of all, the storyline was captivating. It is a drama after all. Put me into that era, I feel so many emotions with the youth and the student movement. Knowing that most of the real people would die during the war with Japan.

Second, the costumes were gorgeous. Even simple raggy male clothing looked elegant in that era. The women's hats and dresses were so classy. Wish we could have that kind of fashion again.

Third, the acting was very good. Every character had his/her emotions that could be felt with happiness, heartaches, anger, and questions.

Last, the music was beautifully mastered. The dances were just so captivating and dreamy. The early 1900s were so elegant with patriotism, trust, love, music, dancing, costumes, and wars.

For the ones that wonder what happened to her brother, a very brief moment of a report from Shen Jun Shan (Toby Lee)'s people on the investigation in Xie Xiang/Xi Liang Chen: Her brother died from being run over by a car after chasing a thief and she was stricken by her brother's death that made her disappeared.

I strongly suggest you watch it. It is very entertaining. It can take you to a totally different world. Best wishes.
