I gained 10 years of the time I lost watching mediocre dramas
Well. I just registered here to rate this one because it has been a month but I'm still repeating the Untamed. Look at me. I'm not a BL fan. And I'm super obsessed with a big old hetero OTP because I used to imagine myself as the female lead.But this? This is revolutionary. Everything that is unorthodox to an old drama fan like me. I've been watching dramas since Stairway to Heaven days, and I just lulled into this saturated state because everything is just repeating. The quality of the dramas just degraded in my case because they can't simply pull off conflict-heavy dramas in this day and age.
But still, I keep on watching with a bored heart. I liked a few dramas occassionally. Bubu Jing Xin? Healer? Master's Sun? The Hong Sisters dramas. Some Day or One Day.
But damn, I think nothing will come close to the rewatchability of this drama. It was like a drug. You just can't watch this once because you need to feel things again on second watching, or even third. Because you will surely miss things and that's deliberately planned. On first watch, you will just follow the adventure. But once the truths are revealed and you finally figured out who the characters were on the different timelines, you will feel so hurt or happy in your heart.
The leads were amazing. I've never shipped a m-m CP before. And I was so late to jump into the WangXian train but here I go. Completely eating my words that I will never watch a popular drama just because I didn't really like Goblin or DOTS that much.
I think I am in love. I think I'm back to the good old days where I really look forward to come home and play my kdrama DVDs.
Thank you tencent.
