Let me start by saying if you are going to watch this drama, a few thousand boxed of tissues will not be enough!
Ancient Love Poetry is totally my type of drama. Fantasy, historical, heart-touching, heart-breaking and all other deep emotions you can think of. From the beginning you are hooked. I loved the fact that the female lead was the Chief God. This character was so powerful. The fact that she was the only female amongst the true gods and that their relationship was so strong was quiet different. Unlike many other dramas, these four people lived and died for each other and never turned against one another.
Tian Qi was one of my favourite characters as well. Even if his way of doing things were very wrong, he loved the female lead so much and was always ready to do anything for her. Even when she was Hou Chi, he didn't hesitate to protect her. Him bringing up her child was everything.
I get that such dramas always have to kill off some important character but Yue Mi's death was too sudden. She was such a close family to Shang Gu, Tian Qi and even the other two gods.
When Bai Jue and Shang Gu "died" and they skipped 60,000 years, I just wanted them back. I wanted everything to be like before. However, we got Qing Mu and Hou Chi. Their relationship was on another level. Qing Mu was such a loveable person. I loved them but then they just took the 2 of them away. I understand the whole story but I cannot accept this one fact. Although it was a happy ending, for me it was like either a bad cliff-hanger or a sad ending. I am still crying.
Yes, Bai Jue did whatever he did over the 60,000 years for Shan Gu but him taking her memories away, treating her that was just not right. They always think they are doing it for the sake of their loved one but in dramas at times like this, it's better if the truth is revealed and they face things together. The female lead was still upset even after he went so it as the same thing.
This drama had the perfect balance of all the elements that I would want in a drama. All the side characters also had great storylines. Even the little comedy scenes were too good.
I could honestly go on forever and ever but let's stop. I would definitely recommend Ancient Love Poetry to everyone.
