Underrated. Should have more viewership.
The cases could be better.Acting and costume are really great. Fight scenes superb. Each character development meticulously fleshed out. I want prequel to know the backstories of the supporting cast--villains and non-villains alike. I also want a sequel if only to know what happens next.
The shots, editing and cinematography is really well done.
The women in the drama are well fleshed out, not annoying and not distracting. They add spice, mystery and intrigue rather than put off a BL fan like me.
Both MLs have great chemistry and I do feel the bromance. Very cute.
Rewatch is highly recommended.

Censorship sucks, the director could have done a better job.
Good acting, plot could have been better and the eye candies are welcome.Actions scenes and parkour skills are hot, almost make up for lack of BL. Bromance is a given, unfortunately not more explored or shown, no thanks to censorship. Both MLs have great chemistry together, the drama could have come out so much better. What a terrible waste.
Don’t know about the actual story line as I don’t speak Mandarin, horrible subs. If the transliteration is anywhere accurate, I can surmise that it would have been a more enjoyable watch had I learn Mandarin and its beautiful poetic nuances. I guess, I have to start learning. The drama I Told Sunset About You really made me want to learn such a lyrical language that speaks to heart.
Yang Shi Ze and Ryota are really very beautiful men, not pretty like the other eye candies but rather well fleshed out beautiful men, confident and just naturally sensual. Quite adorable in their moments of playfulness.
Despite the horrible subs, both ML do share a bond. If only the directors focused on such emotions a little bit, then, the overall story would have been a better watch. To watch it, sure, why not. Rewatch not really recommended.
