Above the cherry blossoms.
For Chinese-Fantasy drama first-time watchers, I think Eternal Love (2017) is a good series to start delving upon on because it definitely shows how different C-dramas can be from other Asian dramas when it comes to fantasy.
-Story-
One of the features that made me interested into watching this drama was the uniqueness of the story in which captivated me to keep on watching episode per episode even until I finish the drama.
Although the story is complicated, I found it understandable and thought the story flows well and clear. Each characters had different personalities and stories so there is a variety of favorite characters to look forward to, whether it'll be the main leads or the support characters.
Another aspect that I liked was the main leads and support characters had enough screen time and that the support characters also had a fair share of their stories so that the drama itself does not solely focused on the main leads.
-Acting/Casting-
I think that everyone played their role beautifully and brought their character's stories and feelings to life. I ended up loving the love teams of both main characters (Yang Mi and Ye Hua) and support characters (Feng Jui and Dong Hua, Yan Zhi and Zi Lan).
I think that everyone shone in their own way and no one out-shined other characters because they all did well into portraying their characters. You could feel the sadness and the pain that Si Yin / Su Su / Bai Qian (same individuals but different lifetimes) encountered every time her loved ones passes away and how she's destined to experienced this fate.
Moreover, you'll also feel the happiness and excitement whenever Feng Jiu and Dong Hua scenes comes on.
As well as anger at Su Jin for bullying Su Su (mortal version of Si Yin/Bai Qian), which is nice in a good way because it means that she [Su Jin] played her character as a antagonist really well.
-Music-
I loved the OST of this drama, especially [Song: Disappointment]. Although, I watched this drama last year, the OST still lingers in my mind and I still listen to it every time I wash the dishes xD
I'll definitely watch this drama again!
