This drama stars Liu Haikuan (The Long Ballad,The Untamed, Mirror Twin Cities) and Estelle Chen (Love Like The Galaxy) and is a supernatural comedy romance drama on WeTv in 24 episodes.

Liu Haikuan carries the weight of the drama effortlessly, particularly in comedic moments as an immortal who is seeking a cure for his affliction, and his remedy might be a young mortuary assistant who witnesses his resurrection.

While there are certainly tropes abounding (long looks between the leads while music plays in the background) - noteably Haikuan’s theme song ‘Confession’) what breaks the mold is the premise and some very effective moments which pull on themes of life and death, mourning and moving on. It’s quite an addictive watch and you keep going to see what happens.

Jaing Bai Ju’s character is interesting and consistent, he can pull from a well of suffering and loneliness amid plenty (I would like to know more about his design work, gardening and painting - both characters share a love of gardening that is not developed) and his dynamic of the Dao grandsons interest me, the devotion marred by a sense of debt) the female lead morphs from competent professional and wise beyond her years to being childish and mercurial and venal to suit the plot, which is a bit frustrating, I can see the hints of what could have been here) The budget didn't extend to special effects, however some scenes in the mortuary are scary enough, there could have been more! Give Liu Haikuan and Deng Wei more meaty roles, they'll be worthy!
