Where to even begin, my heart is full and broken at the same time. It took me two try’s to finish this drama not because I disliked. First off I’m actually a-lazy subtitle reader and I’m not a fan of war dramas at all so it didn’t interest me in the beginning plus Battle of Changsha is a 2014 drama so I didn’t expect a lot out of it. I only came across this drama because my first C drama that I fell I love with is Ashes of Love and I fell in love with Yang Zi. After that drama I searched for other productions she’s in and came across this drama. I choose to see watch this drama over her other ones because it had great reviews. Once I really took the time to read the subtitles I was hooked. I binged watchers 32 episode in 3 days. Let’s talk about the cast, Yang Zi as Hu Xiangxiang capture my fandom more after watching. I can not believe she was only 21 at the time. Her acting was so good in this drama I cried every time she cried her emotions made me felt like I was part of it all. Wallace Huo as Gu Qingming first off is so perfect and handsome, second off I was so impressed by his acting and I have never seen any of his dramas. However it’s just not the main CP that made this drama so great, it is also all the supporting cast. The brother in law is my next memorable character following the whole Hu’s family. Bravos to the cast, crew, director and everyone else involved. This drama deserves so much more recognition!!!
