ANGST YEARNING LOVE

The long ballad was so amazing when I started it I had very high expectations because of what I’ve seen of clips and those exceptions were exceeded!!! All the characters were beautifully thought out and almost all got character arcs which I ADORED. The main couple was AMAZING I loved them so much their chemistry was amazing!!! wu lei was gorgeous here and I hope he takes on more historical roles with outfits and hair like this cause I was immersed in staring at his character 😭😭. The second lead couple was also so so great hao du’s character arc was so good and I adored it so much. I watched this cause lusi and dilreba were in it so I also loved lusi as well. Lusi played the princess so well and her character arc to becoming more mature and understanding of the common people’s suffering was so amazing I really liked how they included that and showed how mature she became after. I adored the Sismance and how much they went through but still remained like sisters :))) The scene where hao du fought was SO GOOD I loved how they built up their romance with this scene. Overall I adored practically every character in this show, the eagle clan members, the mains and the side characters from tang were all so well developed and I fell in love with all of them. I loved how both princesses had a young kid as their sidekick who they saw as their brothers and I loved their characters so much. I loved the emperor as well he was such a good character as well. Also, the main girl’s arc from being harsh after the death of her parents to growing up to be a great princess who fights for the people was amazing I loved how they included that the main leads were there for each other in the worst times of their lives, the romance in general was so amazing for all couples in the show!!! The OST was splendid like every song was so good I definitely bookmarked it to listen to later and the intro song in particular was so good I never skipped the intro song cause I loved it so much! (And I usually skip intro songs to get to the ep faster). Other reviews said this is a good drama as an intro to historical Cdramas and I agree!!! If you’re looking for a drama to watch to introduce yourself to historical Cdramas this is the one! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
Edit: I ended up rewatching it just a few days after I finished cause I loved it so much... cannot describe how good this show is the love line progression is amazing alongside everything else also the styling!!!!!! The styling is so gorgeous seriously watch this it’s incredible
