Okay, I almost gave up trying to find a wuxia that would hooked me in. I tried a lot and most of them started good, some even better, but they all fizzle in the middle. Other times, I would watch until the end with the help of a fast forward button just because I have to see how the main couple ended. However, Eternal Love is different, its starts slow, just a bit of frisson here and there, it slowly builds up the tempo until it felt like you can't breathe without it, and then you reach the climax, and then it comes shattering down, but for a few minutes, the entire process repeats itself. Haha.

I guess one of the best things about this drama is that its well written and properly paced. The actors and actresses are great too, especially Mark Chao for having the best face angle for a kiss that you will end up rewatching all his kissing scenes. I was initially annoyed at Yang Mi's voice but I like how she transitioned from an immature Si Yin to a well respected Bai Qian. Dijun is also one of the best characters for being insanely smart, which is also a big hindrance for him to open up his heart. Also, as much as I love Dilireba as an actress, this drama showed how limited she still is and needs tons of workshops to shape her up for such a demanding role.

58 episodes was just a breeze because this is such a good show, losing some sleep is worth it. However, I have to caution everyone that after watching this drama, everything else you've seen will definitely look mediocre compared to this gem.
