This drama,accidentally was recommended to me,by YouTube.I am glad I watched it,because it has a solid plot with an intense screenplay from the beginning to the end.
The story revolves about the transfer of power from Sui dynasty to Tang Dynasty and the heroes who came into glory in those turbulent times.How these heroes,motivated people,stood by them in tough times,fought for better governance despite losing some of their loved ones,helped citizens of the country pass through rough phases and successfully helped Tang dynasty rise to power.
The story was very good and solid from the beginning.There were lots of tensive moments with a good pace that kept me hooked till the end.
This is the first time I am watching Yang Yi Kuan and he is excellent in his performance.Jiang Wu and Zhang Han were also perfect in their roles.
The actors did a good job in portraying their roles.They really made the story interesting.
I was really impressed by the way they showcased how people lived in constant fear,formed teams,army units and alliances,while some of them stayed united,some betrayed,some died.All their struggles,anguishes, anxieties tensions were beautifully portrayed on the screen.
The romantic tracks were also decent and good.
The costumes,sets,music were good.Though they may seem outdated with respect to the present day technology used in chinese dramas,surely you can give this drama a chance to watch to know the history,culture, struggles,politics of Sui dynasty and Tang dynasties.
I highly recommend this historical drama.It is a very good watch!!
