i remember when Ancient Detective started airing and i wanted to check it out but just never got around to. and then i saw the positive reviews here on mdl, so i decided to binge it since it's pretty short. although it had some flaws, i thoroughly enjoyed this drama and i wish there was more dramas like this(whether it is this type of genre or not).

what surprised me most about this drama was the cinematography and the intense action scenes. the scenes in the first case especially had some beautiful shots. speaking of cases, each case wasn't intricate but it was good enough for the audience to make their guesses without using extreme and detailed knowledge. i also enjoyed the side characters that we see throughout each case that Jian Buzhi and his friend Zhao Wohuan came across. however, i wasn't a fan of the romance between Jian Buzhi and Zhan Shiqi. it didn't bother me that much but i just think their romance could have been non-existent.

overall, i recommend this underrated drama for anyone who likes detective dramas. even if you're not into this kind of genre, i think you will like Ancient Detective anyway.
