Despite it’s flaws, I am proud to say that this has been the best, most heartbreaking, tear jerking, tragic, drama I have ever watched. It will forever remain in my heart, and I am so thankful that I had stumbled upon it.

The depth of each character was wonderfully brought out, as well as each of their character development. I have to say that Xiaofeng has been the character with the most growth, and has won a special place in my heart as once of my most favorite female characters I have ever watched. Peng Xiao Ran had really done justice to Xiaofeng.

From every actors’ portrayal of their characters, to the beautiful settings and costumes, to the hauntingly beautiful OST. This drama will forever have a special place in my heart, and I’m afraid that no other one will be able to measure up to its place in my heart.

My most favorite scene, and the scene that I have repeated so many times over the past few days, is the scene of Xiaofeng’s death. It was beautifully and hauntingly tragic, and was portrayed with so much emotion from the leads that I cried till I had no tears left. What had made the scene so beautiful was...

1. The main leads’ acting/emotional portrayal of their characters. Peng Xiao Ran’s heartbreaking and moving speech to the soldiers and Chengyin was amazing. And Chen Xing Xu did an outstanding performance with his reactions to Xiaofeng’s death. It was so believable and emotional that you can practically feel his pain and heartbreak through the screen, especially when he had broke into a smile as Xiaofeng had touched his cheek in her last moments.

2. The leads’ chemistry was once again incomparable. No one could’ve played Xiaofeng and Chengyin the way that these two did.

3. The editing, from the scenes to music was beautiful and so well done. The flashbacks that fit in so perfectly with the music made the scene 10x better. It allows the viewers to reminiscence on Xiao feng’s and Chenyin’s happy/sorrow filled moments of when they were together, and how far they have both come in their journey.

4. The background music was PERFECT during this scene. From playing Love Hurts, to Little Fox, and finally First Encounter (Li-language) when Xiaofeng had taken her final breath. It showed that she was finally home, and is at last free and is at peace.

An amazing drama that can’t be compared. I’m praying so much for a season 2, or any other project of these 2 together. Despite their age difference, I am absolutely hooked and blown away by their on and off screen chemistry.
