Awesome Fast paced drama

Love this drama!
I have high demand and expectation. Im the type that does not hesitate to drop drama. This meets my expectation.
Super fast pace, without much fillers and nonsense.
Within 1st episode i got drawn in. Compare to Love and Redemption, this is faster.
Funny plot with FL turning into animals
ML is on point with his acting skills. Handsome and can fight. FL is cute and innocent look very very brave. Both have chemistry and can feel their love. Great pairing. I feel its much better than previous ML show and lead in Love Three thousand
The set and costumes are just nice, not overly stealing e actors limelight. ML always have such nice clothes and cloak. Director praises ML is very suitable for the role in an interview.
Director is very good at making all angles look perfect.Esp the wedding fight scene. Storytelling and pacing a0lso makes sense. Every episode leave u waiting for more. Sweet sweet love makes you feel sweet sweet. Nice feeling show and leave you wanting more. Not so much CGI and have real fight scenes which are not exaggerated make it more realistic. Added in a bit of poofy comedy lines. ?

I already rewatched twice while waiting for episodes.
Great show despite such tight filming schedule. This means most shoots went well and very few NGs. Very
Impressive. Means all actors and production team are hardworking.
Very sad only have 35 episodes. Need more of such masterpiece please. Bring back original team and actors for another drama.
P.S-was confused by the ending. Then heard episode 35 got cut and extended to episode 36!

Fast pace Storyline

Finished this in 4 days...
Literally swollen eyes daily...
One of my top drama for 2020.

I must say although this was filmed 3 yrs ago, it did not look much outdated.
I also did not read preview and went to watch. I believed watchin with open heart rather than knowing ending.

Cinematography
Because they went to Shangri la for filming. Most are real scenery.Backdrops are wild and amazing... sweeping majestic scenes
Lots of real ground for battle scene. Forest suitable for wolf scene.
There is very little cg. Except for the animals...
Kudos to actors able to act with cg on point... eg watching how the butterfly flies, eyes following it...
Fightin i would say its,better in the first few episodes.
Esp,when for wolf prince and in battles.

Costumes
Very heavy armour for ML. But its menacing and he carries the look well, though it seems a size bigger. Not sure if cos its too cold. I like his hair! Punk! Very apt for this show.
Second ML as a prince should wear better and more luxurious costumes i feel... his wanderer look is better.
FL have good range of costumes i feel so its not boring.
Villian lady have ridiculous headpiece i feel. As with those silly makeup on some attendants.
The kings and army are also well dressed.

Actors
FL is veteran actress. So very impressed with her crying scenes. Although at 30 she can act and looks like a young girl.
She also seems too tired i feel as can see her eyebags even with makeup. Her character supposed to be strong and clever. In several episodes, the script portrays her as childish. But i like that she is kind and forge lots of friendship. She carries her amour well.

ML is also veteran actor. He is a dude who can smirk and still looks good. Rarely have such actors who has natural smirk, shows true emotions and not caring if handsome on screen. Many scenes with raw angry emotions across his face. So many smirks that score points. His cold heart black face and trusting wolf face also on point. He is made for this character. He lets off his rage face 100% in show. Ugly but cool. Suffering on the inside, still look cool. Very Man.

Second ML is quite cool. He carries the look of wanderer better than a prince. His acting when fighting with ML is good. Very natural at laughing. Though i don understand why still need to keep a stubble when became a prince. He has his puppy eyes always looking at FL, boost his lovelorn look.

Khitan princess was quite refreshing.
Acting very realistic to spoilt princess.
Pouting lips and all

Story
Not based on book. So im impressed by the the flow... it is quick and makes sense. I hardly do marathons. The storyline helps. Very sad, both characters made for each other and sacrifice for each other. Went through alot yet still cannot be together. I did not expect so much raw emotions, almost crying every other episode.
script writing is good, at the heartless part of the wolf prince. He suffering inside so much. Really makes one heart pain for him. Many heartfelt scenes.
I usually drop dramas that dont gel and make sense.
I believed the editing falls short. Some scenes were deleted that left me abit confused as it fast forwards the show. Esp towards FL getting poisoned.
There.are.some flashbacks which i think can reduce.
Would love more involvement of the wolves.
OST is amazing as per all other reviews. It truly helps lift the show.

Overall good job by producers, team and actors. Finally made it to screen after 3 yrs and its well done.
Will rewatch for WoLf's smirk.
