Beautiful scenery and good portrayal of costume crime drama in the Song Dynasty
Riverside Code at Qingming Festival is a costume drama set in Bianliang City during the Song Dynasty. It starts with Zhang Song Wen and Bai Bai He.
There was no romantic gesture between the main CP. Still, their on-screen dynamic as a couple who loves each other and their family dearly works well because of the excellent acting skills of Zhang Song Wen and Bai Bai He, especially Zhang Song Wen.
The story's pace was okay, though some episodes were draggy and unnecessary. Overall, it was not bad, and the color and cinematography were excellent.
Synopsis: During the Northern Song Dynasty, a bustling corner of Qu'er Alley in Bianliang City was home to the Zhao family, five individuals with wildly different personalities. Zhao Bu You, a low-ranking clerk, sought a simple life, while his wife, Wen Yue, aimed to buy land and secure their future. Despite frequent arguments, the family remained close. Their lives dramatically turned when they were drawn into the sensational Mei Ship case.
