Laughing i, Laughing, be excited , and then laughing again
This is a story about fiction world. I just started To watch because of Dylan. But I find myself to watch every second.**
**
First two or three episodes I thought princess is annoying. She acted like a child. And I thought how their relationship could be. It can’t be work.
Buut I was wrong. After she found her friend die she is so brave. Also I can feel her sadness. FL can show us to real emotion. I almost cried
Their relation is very nature . They didn’t make big action. Just fallen love. He thought she is cute and brave and then loved her.
I laugh every second to family scenes. they are so funny. also friendship is amazing. not just a bromance they also show man-woman friendship. so cute. His cousin is really drama queen. I watch him just like Qi An. Dylan’s character is so funny and speak very well. He adapted to world easily. it was amazing. I can’t wait to watch.
**
But now I am watching episode 33 and little bit angry. Because ML and FL don’t have screen time. We can’t watch our girl. They don’t see each other properly last 10 episode together. I’m getting annoyed. Where is she? She is in the dark. I thought after her friend died she will have her own story. But she just left. I hope they have more screen time.
And no screen time in this episode too. Why they said Female lead, she is just support character
**
Episode 34
This ship scene is so silly. If he miss her why he didn’t go to see her. Why he has to swim . -_-
It just a little little idea… he has a strong intense with Nangong. I don’t want to accept this but if she will be FL maybe we can find more romantic stories. Because princess disappear again.
I lost the story. Who is this women with white hat. What happened….
***
I back to story again. I finished now and I love it. I am really confused Dylan’s best role is this one or Love Between Fairy and Devil. I can’t choose now. maybe I should watch Devil again. but for romance Devil is the best. I saw the rumor about season 2. I hope so .
I really want to see a man who didn’t show his face. It was very funny.
I also love women in the story. You can’t see weak women. All of them is strong even Princess.

A well balanced act
I found this drama had the right amount of silly to balance the gravitas towards the bed of the series. I enjoyed every single episode. I didn’t mind that it was not a romance heavy series but all the main characters were outstanding. I do wish they gave the Princess a little more air time. For someone who hasn’t read the novel, the final scene was a bit predictable.I am really interested to see what the next season holds even if there is different actors.
This was definitely worth the watch.

Theee bestttt!
I have watched many K-dramas, C-dramas, and J-dramas, but I am particularly a fan of Chinese costume dramas. This one really made me cry! Dylan Wang is an exceptional actor; I don't think there is another performer who can move me emotionally like he does—his performance is truly on another level. The storyline of the drama is perfect, and the cast is outstanding. I have no complaints at all. Anyone can watch it without hesitation.Was this review helpful to you?
Crazy, Hilarious, Addictive, Unexpected Ending
When I first started watching Guardian of the Dafeng, my immediate reaction was, “What the heck is going on?” The drama is an eclectic mix of genres—modern-day elements, wuxia, xianxia, dark magic, mythical creatures, palace politics, and even a kind of cell phone system. It’s a potpourri of ideas thrown together. However, once I got the hang of it, I became hooked. The sheer craziness and humor made it an enjoyable watch. Dylan Wang is hilariously over-the-top, and even his cringiest moments are amusing.The story follows Yang Ling, a modern real estate agent who time-travels to a fictional ancient dynasty called Dafeng. He finds himself inhabiting the body of Xu Qi’an, the nephew of a low-ranking government official. Xu Qi’an regains consciousness in prison and soon learns the dire circumstances surrounding his incarceration. His uncle, responsible for escorting government funds, has lost the money, resulting in his imprisonment and impending execution. Meanwhile, Xu Qi’an faces exile, and the female members of his family are condemned to a brothel.
Determined to change his fate, Xu Qi’an leverages his modern scientific and technological knowledge to uncover the mystery behind the missing funds. His ability to think critically and adapt to his new environment helps him navigate the challenges ahead. Additionally, his partial knowledge of ancient poetry—highly revered in that era—becomes a powerful tool in gaining recognition. His quick wit and ingenuity propel him through the ranks, ultimately leading him to become the Da Geng Ren—the Guardian—charged with protecting the kingdom from dark forces and crimes.
Xu Qi’an’s journey is akin to Forrest Gump, where misfortunes turn into opportunities, and luck seems to follow him at every turn. As he rises in status, he gains supernatural abilities, mastering dark and celestial forces, and accumulates immense wealth for his family. His adventure is wildly entertaining and filled with comedic moments.
Characters and Acting
Dylan Wang’s performance is outstanding. He effortlessly transitions from looking silly and exaggerated with pouting lips to delivering intense, piercing stares in serious moments. The entire cast, including the antagonists, is well-developed and humorous, with each character possessing distinct strengths and weaknesses.
What I Liked
One of the highlights of the drama is the way Xu Qi’an strategizes through situations. His thought process is audibly represented in thought bubbles, showing viewers the best course of action in any given moment.
The drama’s blend of the impossible and the possible, the insane and the logical, the outrageous and the acceptable, is what makes it so uniquely entertaining. I also enjoyed Xu Qi’an’s relationships—his bond with his cousin, who is righteous yet stubborn, his loyalty to his two best friends, and his dynamic with his superior, who always watches out for him.
Furthermore, Xu Qi’an’s approach to justice resonates deeply. When the proper channels fail to serve justice, he takes matters into his own hands. This aspect of the drama connects with real-world frustrations over injustice, making it even more engaging.
Final Thoughts
The ending is unexpected and somewhat abrupt. Xu Qi’an seemingly disappears, which makes sense since he originates from the future. However, at the same time, he exists as a member of the Xu family, leading to a puzzling contradiction. The identity of the mysterious figure, which remained a mystery throughout the series, is finally revealed in a surprising twist. However, the convoluted nature of the ending leaves several questions unanswered. Notably, Xu Qi’an doesn’t return to the future as Yang Ling, leaving an open-ended feeling, as if a continuation might be in the works.
Overall, Guardian of the Dafeng is a wild, entertaining ride filled with humor, action, and unexpected twists. Despite some narrative inconsistencies, it remains a highly enjoyable watch.

Colossal Chinese drama with each different episode of themes and dynamic plot
The detailed story details are packed with epic, all series, mystery one by one is revealed and not yet known who must be blamed in the drama plotHonestly, if you want to watch a colossal drama with many beautiful women, this drama is very recommended, in every scene every plot there are always many beautiful and elegant women, from the top circles, daughters to the bottom, criminals all consist of beautiful women
Good quality acting is also felt in this drama. Every face and situation conditions in the drama like you can feel directly. Some flashback scenes are also neatly packaged so as to build emotional viewers
This drama combines various genres such as entering the world of animation and magic, and also the mystery that is combined into one, each episode we will be introduced to various plots and mysteries that various kinds, even the plot twist at the end will be very astonishing so I don't feel bored at all When you see it
A good drama is accompanied by a good music, this drama is no exception. Music quality is very pleasant in my memory, it's like integrating with the story and emotional of the players
Expect season 2 or immediately read a follow -up book: honestly the sequel of their story is very interesting to discuss, from the point of view of the drama details there is still much that can be developed in season 2 to be able to create a plot that is related to season 1, but like other dramas, we can only wait Clarity

Guardians of the Dafeng has had quite the journey!
Initially, I found the first few episodes a bit slow, but I agree that the story really starts to pick up as it progresses. The pacing improves, and the plot becomes more engaging, which is a relief!One of the highlights of the show is definitely the humor. There are plenty of hilarious moments that had me laughing out loud, which adds a nice balance to the more serious elements of the story. It’s great to see a show that can mix action and comedy so well!
Dylan, in particular, had me praised for his acting chops. As fan I have noticed his growth and improvement, especially in comedic scenes. It’s always nice to see an actor evolve and really find their stride in a role.🌟
