Better series are available
The story is too bland. Casting is good but rest is just so so. No chemistry between the leads. The plot is so draggy. The only thing that kept me going was Cheng Yi and OSTs. The whole 60 or so episodes only focuses on the story of the leads and yet cannot add taste to it. Love is forbidden in the heavenly realm but the reason is not convincing enough. Many of the characters just vanished and suddenly appear after 20 episodes. No connections between the events. The whole series is a mess. I had high expectations. I am really disappointed.Was this review helpful to you?

Not a single thing in the drama is worth appreciating
I am highly choosy when it comes to drama but still ended up watching two worst dramas, one is Miss the dragon and the second is Starry love. I guess I should stop watching ongoing dramas.
About starry love
1. Story. The plot is unique which we don't find in most fantasy dramas. It would've better if it was a light drama or a heavy drama but they made it light till episode 35 and heavy in last 5 episodes but what is disappointing is that everything in last few episodes were too fast. The ending is not happy either. If they planned to end it this way then it should've been made in 15 episodes atleast but......
2. Music. Worse OST in chinese drama till date.
3. Acting. I wasn't impressed with anyone's acting.
4. Cast. I didn't find cast interesting except a few.
5. Side actors. I look forward to side actors story but this time............. disappointed. So many side couples with unnecessary screentime. Their story was not good either. When it comes to side actors story, they should learn from Taoism grandmaster or A river runs through it or else they should not give so much sreentime to side actors.
Nothing in the story is worth watching. It seems like written by a confused child. A child who only writes happy stories but there should be some twist so that was added in last 5 episodes but of course a child doesn't know how to add twist and how to finish it so.........

Watch for second lead and the other main couple. First leads don't have a story.
When I watched the trailer I thought it is going to be one of the best xianxia drama of 2022-2023 but........ The plot was full of mystery in the beginning and kept me engaged but when the mystery unfold it became boring. I might have dropped the series but it introduced more interesting characters like HeNa and A'Fu. The friendship between HeNa and First lead was good to watch and the brotherly bond that HeNa and A'Fu shared was lovely. The series also introduced Luo Ning who was the sister of Luo Ge (Vin Zhang) and love interest of A'Fu (Riley Wang) that's where the plot became more interesting for me. If you watch the series for first leads then it will be really disappointing. They don't actually have a story. The other couple have more character development and much better story. I am giving a 10 rating only for Second lead and the other main couple.Was this review helpful to you?
