Hard to Find, Hard to Let Go
This made me cry.Episodes might seems slow, but the story was worth it.
SPOILER ALERT tho, the ending is really heartbreaking. I get it, but it still is very heavy and sad :(
ZYQ and SYJ were so good (I love them both and the chemistry was great. But part of it was because I'm biased towards ZYQ, lol), and kudos to the casting director, as well as the whole prod.
I hope it did not have the ending it did, but that's what made it more poignant and meaningful.

The delusion that it would last forever...
I've just finished this drama and my eyes are still wet from crying... Lastly I had some drama burnout and couldn't find any drama to keep me invested and then I found this... I don't know what I expected but I defo wasn't ready for this. It's really beautiful drama, tragic but indeed beautiful. I liked kind of enemy to lovers trope and chemistry between leads was really on point with rollercoaster of emotions. Story had some minor issues but overall it was good. I'm really glad that it didn't have any overdragged plots and it was rather fast-paced. I like how this love triangle was resolved and how supportive second leads were. I hoped to the last moment that it would end differently but yeah... I was delusional. OST is really beautiful and touching, it suits story so well. Rewatch value is like zero for me cause damn, I don't want to cry again.To summarize, if you are looking for beautiful, touching historical/fantasy drama with tragic ending - you MUST watch it.
But if you are looking for some lighthearted drama to cheer you up - DON'T, just keep scrolling, and don't jump into this sorrow pit.

Hard to find indeed
Well, when I ran into an MV of this on YouTube I wasn't expecting to get sucked into watching this, and I really wasn't expecting this to be as good as the MV lead us on to believe it was (cause often that's not the case).I loved this! It made me smile, it also made me cry my eyes out. I think it's such a lovely little drama.
The actors did such a good job, especially since they're such new actors and actresses. And the FL is so pretty. The visuals are stunning so kudos to the producer and director and whoever else is in charge of Making this so beautiful.
I really love how well they portrayed the emotions in this. They did so well. I cried with them and I smiled with them. This is such a beautiful love story too. It's so sweet and sad. I think bittersweet is the right word to describe it.
I'm still figuring out how to enterprate the title. Hard To Find. Hard to find happiness? Hard of find a solution to all their problems? Hard to find a good ending?
All in all, I definitely really do recommend this.

I wanted to share my thoughts on the drama Hard to Find. Overall, I found it very enjoyable. The female lead's (FL) character is quite reasonable and refreshing, unlike the typical Chinese/Korean FL characters that are often portrayed as childish, annoyed, and somewhat silly. Her portrayal with mature and kind traits was a pleasant surprise.
The storyline makes sense for the most part, except for a few parts like how the male lead (ML) knows the baby is his. I appreciate that the story focuses on the lives of the main characters (FL and ML), ensuring that no part felt unnecessary.
I also liked the second characters, Xiu Jiu and Shi Ying. They are not only good-looking but also well-developed.
However, I was disappointed with the ending. It was sad, and I felt that the ML's decision to kill himself was unnecessary and didn't make sense given his actions were acceptable.
I would recommend watching it.

Good
Good Mini drama, would have given more ratings but there were some unnecessary plots/things in the drama -like the ancient tree & its rules/myths/ beliefs were over the top, exaggerated until the very end & that took away the interest in the later half; the FL's acting also was little irritating as she always said she the one to blame for ML's clan's disappearance etc, etc most of the time.
The actor who played Feng yin (wang ze xuan) was awesome, he played his character superbly, specially towards the end of the drama, applause for his acting skills.

Sad but still great!
I should say that I don't normally watch sad ending dramas as I don't like being sad after watching all that time but I think this time it was more realistic that it was a sad ending. I would definitely be happier and liked it more if we get a miraculous happy ending even if it isn't realistic but because the acting was good and they made me believe they can't live without eachother I can accept this ending. (still sad though) I could understand both leads and why they make those choices. After a long time of not deep thinking, whiny female leads (for chinese dramas) finally a nice female lead. Both of the lead's acting was great. Overall very quality production. My only problem was them never telling the child who was her mother/father was. Even way before deciding killing themselves. Made me feel like they just put the child there to add extra drama and left it without knowing what to do. I think it has rewatch value but I probably won't to protect myself from the pain again.Was this review helpful to you?
Short-form Series worth watching
The series is divided into 3 parts, the first part depicts a man so vengeful with a woman, after some time they meet and when they meet, the woman has lost her memory, the second chapter tells the flashback of the relationship of the man and the woman, the third chapter is how the man and the woman solve all the things that happened in the first chapter, I really liked the first chapter, the acting, the storyline looks beautiful to watch, but unfortunately in the third chapter, everything looks clichéd story, I should give a score of 9/10 but I give a score of 8/10.Was this review helpful to you?

Very very VERY sad ending
At the start, I was genuinely engrossed in the drama, but I found it hard to continue. It's not due to any fault of the actors - they truly excelled in their roles. I was spoiled in the middle of the series that both leads died at the end. As a fan of dramas with happy endings, the deaths of the main characters left me feeling disheartened. I wasn't quite in the mood for a Chinese adaptation of Romeo and Juliet.I started watching when the episodes aired, so I couldn't spoil myself beforehand which is a habit of mine. After reading the summary, I generally go straight to the last episode, to the last 5-10 minutes. I must check if the main couple is alive, together, and in love. I hardly tolerate any other ending. (You can check my profile to read about my pet peeves! lol)
That being said, if you don't mind sad endings, you might enjoy this drama. Certain episodes had me completely captivated. The male lead's reasons for harbouring animosity towards the female lead were compellingly portrayed. Additionally, the female lead's amnesia added an intriguing layer to the plot.
Overall, it's a nice fantasy drama, although it did feel a bit lacking in budget. So, if you're okay with sad endings, I would still recommend giving it a try.

Story.
A show like this is so addicting that you don't realize how many hours have passed. I enjoy watching this and can't wait for the next episode all the time. It is a perfect historical drama with lots of emotions, I sometimes cried because of the pain. The whole cast is great and the ML & FL have amazing chemistry with each other. Especially the ML is fantastic with his performances throughout the drama. I will recommend this drama to anyone.Was this review helpful to you?

Worth watching
It was good but a little draggy. I still don't get Feng Yin's role in all of this. His scenes were like a fever dream 😂 Plus he never left the palace either. I also feel super bad for their daughter. ML's death was unnessary bc FL went up and beyond to save him earlier. He could've lived for their daughter at least and joined her a bit later. That's what Feng Yuan actually wanted. Other than that, it was really good and worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?
