SPEAR TECHNIQUES MADE MY DAY
As long as you're Xu Kai's Fan then you will definitely like the drama and also my comment. 😜😜😜Every Drama comes with Pros and Cons. I'm sharing a final review.
-> I liked Xu Kai's performance, especially his Spear Techniques and his transformations to different levels. He is so handsome ❤️❤️❤️. I'll definitely wait for his upcoming work: Wonderland of Love.
-> I also liked Gulnezer Bextiyar. She is also cute. Her pairing with Xu Kai is good to watch. Especially their chemistry ❤️❤️.
-> I liked the friendship of Xue Ying, Yang Bo, Wu Cang & Yu Feng. Though Wu Cang & Yu Feng appear in the later part of the show, their friendship and sacrifice can never be forgotten 🥲
Pros of the Drama:
1. Fighting and Practicing Scenes of Xu Kai, Gulnezer, Bai Shu & Zheng Kai.
2. Chemistry between Xu Kai and Gulnezer
3. Friendship - Xueying, Yangbo, Wu Cang, & Yu Feng
4. Sacrifice of Chi Quibai and Moyang Yu
5. Sacrifices of 6 Elders (except the first priest)
Cons of the Drama:
1. Too much focus on Support Roles.
2. Too much screen time is given to Annoying characters around the Main Leads.
3. Less Screen time for Xu Kai, Gulnezer, and Bai Shu for the 30 episodes. They got more screen time after 30 episodes.
4. CGI is off a bit. Makers should have focused on CGI as well.
5. I understand the story focused more on the demon side. Makers gave more intelligence and screen time to Demons. In my opinion, makers should have given more intelligence to Good Side. The elders were too dumb in the drama. Only, Xue Ying was given more intelligence to decode things ahead.
Overall, I still stand with Xu Kai as it is not his fault for Drama's Disadvantages. His hard work and handsomeness lead me complete all the episodes. I have expected more of Bai Shu and Xu Kai.
I liked the #KaiKai's Master-Student Relationship (Zheng Kai & Xu Kai). Chi Quibai went all out to protect XueYing. The chemistry between Xu Kai and Gulnezer started early, unlike other dramas. I liked their chemistry too.

A Must Watch Drama!
Classy Scenes:1. First Fight between Cui Lin & Li Ni (Underwater fight and Backyard fight)
2. Li Ni hitting fire arrows with Style
3. Li Ni's Sword Dance
4. Li Ni and Cui Lin's Post-Wedding Fight
Emotion-Filled Scene: Episodes 29-30 depicted an intense scene involving Old Bao, Bandits like Zhao Youde, You Yi, and others deeply moved me. Witnessing their sacrifice to save Li Ni and the emotional weight of the moment brought tears to my eyes.
As everybody talked about the Plot, I wanted to share more about the scenes, impressions, and characters.
First Impression: Li Ni - His character: Down to Earth, Charismatic, Skilled, and Peace-Keeper. You will understand his character in the first few episodes. I loved his interaction with Bao, Chang Er, and Pei Yuan the most.
You won't be bored at all. Each episode unfolds with a distinctive challenge as Li Ni journeys through various cities en route to the capital, striving to restore their kingdom.
Overall, I loved IT!

It is good! Can't expect more than this!
The waiting journey of the show finally ends! Haah.. Almost 1 Year we waited for this show to air ever since it's teaser launched last year.I've been waiting for Xu Kai's modern drama after Falling into your Smile. I completed watching 40 episodes today.
Xu Kai as Yang Hua: His character is nicely written. He aced the performance as Yang Hua.
YangMi, Li Ze Feng, Tang Jing Mei & He Feng Tian did amazingly well in the show.
For Acting and Characters ~ 10/10.
For Story and Editing ~ 9/10. I think the story was good but last 3-4 episodes got really stretched and focused more Yao Yao related than the main leads in the show. I felt the last episode got edited roughly missing out various points. Last episode should have focused more on Yang Hua and Qin Shi instead of showing other things.
For OST ~ 10/10.
Overall: 9.5/10
## It's my first cdrama I watched on Law and finance focused story. So I felt that the detailing in the story is good. Xu Kai and Yang Mi did amazingly well.

Delicious Food, Scenic Romance, & Amazing People
My first impression - Perfect Voice Studio: Qiang, Juemai, Doubing, Yasong, WangKe, Mao & Feishao, and Cosplayers: Mumu, & Mo Bai. What a perfect Team. I liked their first meeting (QQC meeting JM, DB & FYS for the first time) and their story before setting up Perfect Voice Studio. Writers should have highlighted their story a little more (At least 1 Episode).This drama has no cliches, no fights, no annoying characters, no lags, no scheming, and no jealousy...
Just a set of pure souls performing voice dubbing and singing traditional music.
This drama gave equal importance to support characters too. Though TJC & ZY are the Main Leads, This drama also contains delicious food making as one of the main leads... 😂😂😂
Overall, I loved IT! AND A MUST WATCH!!!

It is "okay". There are shortcomings
My Rating -1. Story: 3/10 - Although the Divorced Mom Plot contain the career progress and finding new love, It has so many shortcomings and illogical scenes make you feel bored. Second Couple is too boring to watch. FL's Kid plot is too thin. I hoped Kid can have more screen time.
2. Acting: 8/10
Negatives -
1. Second Couple's On and Off Plot looked boring, I had to skip the most of the part.
2. The Plot with the Child is completely missing. If you're using the "Divorced Mom" plot then the writers must focus more on Child part. The Show began with a goal of a mother to get custody but later child goal got drifted.
3. Drama is too Draggy! Almost 85% of the scenes look like copied from other bossy dramas. Also, there are unnecessary scenes which make us feel bored.
4. Though FL looks good but her character is boring to watch. There's a growth in her character but there are more shortcomings.
Positives -
1. ML is good and handsome. I watched so many dramas of Liu Te.
2. ML interaction with FL's kid looks good but I felt writers should have added more scenes for them. Kid is good.
3. Sweet Kisses and Romances.
For those, who look for this drama in the future - It is happy ending with out Marriage Scene, Story can be improved and seemed off with the plot, Good Chemistry and there are Kissing Scenes.

Drama was good but disappointed with 3 Points in the Drama
**** I've watched 24 episodes which marks the End **** I'm updating the review based on overall experience!I liked Chen Zhe Yuan's performances of Renascence and Our Secret!
Overall Review:
Although Story is stretched a bit. It's worth watching. Male Lead, Female Lead and 2nd Female Lead are good. 2nd Male Lead is kind of boring and cold. There are few instances where I enjoyed watching like Xiao Wudi's stylish fight scenes and Escape room scenes.
I had few disappointments with the Drama: (These would have been improvised a bit)
1. FL and ML relation from Ep 1 to Ep 14 is too slow and stretched longer. FL cannot realize the Xiao Wudi character despite helping her all the time. She feels that Xiao Wudi is a Devil just because she created the character in the novel.
2. 2nd FL and 2nd ML story is quite boring and confusing at times. 2nd ML is kind of boring. He is like an out of touch character.
3. It took 16 Episodes for Nanxing to understand Xiao Wudi is a good guy and fall in love with him.
As story progressed, all questions were explained. I guessed that Xiao Wudi and Nan Xing would have a daughter named XiXi (Episode 24) in the comments earlier which turned out to be true.
Note: I've been watching Chinese and Korean Dramas for longer and I know that it takes a lot of effort to make dramas. I'm not an Anti-Fan or Fan to the any person involved in this Drama. I select dramas based on the trailer. If I liked the Trailer then I'll watch it. I do not spread any hatred towards the actors or crew involved in the drama. I just put my opinion about Drama. Hope this review doesn't affect fans or haters.

A Revenge Drama - Hero who fights against Injustice
I think Lomon deserves an award for his outstanding performance through out the show. I never missed his Drama. I watched almost all he starred starting from The Guardians (For Dramas) and Horror Story III (For Movies).There're some reviews and comments about the Ending! I personally think that Ending is justified because if they tend to expand the ending sequence, it might end up becoming another episode with running time less than 28 minutes and if they follow normal k-drama standards then the runtime can either be 45 min or 60 min.
Moreover, sometimes the approval of episode length depend on Disney+ based on their requirement. I understand that last 20 minutes of the show actually handled bit faster than expected - From Jaebum's Arrest to Ji Soo's exit (from school with Chan Mi.
There are so many favorite scenes in the show especially the Ep9 ending sequence when Jaebum is revealed instead of Ji Soo with the background song (Lost Game).
According to me, It has high re-watch value with it's take on several characters in the show.
Overall,
Story - 10/10 (It is actually good, A Person with Tumor in his last days taking care of mother who is hospitalized and also helping the girls who were traumatized with bullies and Ok ChanMi finding the murder of her brother)
Acting - 10/10 (Ji Soo, Chanmi, Osung, Jaebeom, Kookji,Tae So) - Every actor on the show did good.
OST - 10/10 (All the Songs are good)
Rewatch Value - 10/10
Don't miss the show. It keeps you at the edge of the seat while watching intense scenes.

It is a good Drama to watch!
Firstly, I thought to drop out from this Drama because of reviews on MDL. But wanted to give it a try after watching first episode. I liked all the actors - Yoo Seung Ho (Kang Bok Soo), Jo Bo Ah (Son Soo Jung), Chun Ho Jin (Park Dong Jun), Lee Kang Min (Yoon Sung Woo), Kim Dong Young (Lee Kyung Hyun), Park Ah In (Yang Min Ji) and others.It started as a revenge plot with an added romantic track between main leads (ML and FL), I really loved the whole drama irrespective of it's improper editing and story telling.
Story - It is nice that Bok Soo and Soo Jung were used to be lovers. Due to misunderstanding between them, Soo Jung commits a mistake by testifying against Bok Soo for pushing Se Ho which brings Bok Soo to start revenge plot after 9 years. During the process, he understands Soo Jung and gets lovey-dovey again! He gets into taking revenge against Se Ho not knowing Se Ho is a victim and helps everyone around him to set a better example of himself. Bok Soo finally graduates and gets together with Soo Jung.
I felt 32 Episodes as Long! the Drama could have ended little earlier.
Acting - I think all the actors portraying different roles (protagonist/antagonist/support) did amazing job. I really liked Seung Ho, and Jo Bo Ah as main leads, Teacher Park (Chun Ho Jin) with his sensible and responsible character and the other students around Seung Ho are all good.
Hope I rewatch the drama in the future again!

I'm quiet satisfied with this Drama
I watched so many modern dramas till date which had misunderstands or anger moments between leads but this actually seemed bit better compared to other dramas.I felt the way ML trusting FL is really a good point in the drama. In most of the dramas I have watched, I've always seen that whenever there's something happens with FL, ML gets annoyed or shows distrust towards FL. Surely it's a re-watchable drama
Pros of watching Drama:
1) FL and ML are too good. Their appearances, performances are very nice.
2) I really liked the friends around ML and FL. Seeing them cheerful, enjoyable and trusting each other are very good to watch.
3) There are no big conspiracies involved unlike other dramas. It's a very cheerful drama to watch.
4) Luckily, this drama has no triangular love story. Though there were characters where they like ML and FL but it was shown in a lite way.
Cons:
1) Gaming part seemed boring but the interaction in game between ML and FL is not boring.
Hope my review helps!
Note: I've compared this drama with the ones I watched - https://mydramalist.com/dramalist/10208215 |

Surprisingly! Super Drama & Super Cute FL.
My first view of both Leads are from Put Your Head on My Shoulders. I didn't expect to watch this show but one day, it appeared in the Viki List. I started to watch this.It is completely good! you won't get bored and also the story is well written and seemed not dragging at all. I've seen many CDramas till date and I feel this drama is one of the best Cdramas I watched in romance category. I liked both ML-FL and 2ML-2FL.
It's a perfect mix of emotions - I laughed, cried, pained. it is very simple, no conspiracies and no bad/evil intentions.
