The drama that ruined an entire genre for me

— "Sturdy, sharp, lethal, but it dazzles brilliantly. "
— "I’m hard and sharp, but you’re the lethal one aren’t you? "
— "Sort of. "

A strange “chicken” that falls from the sky and a sickly human with a mysterious identity who comes to its rescue: from the very first episode, you can't look away from this incredible drama. I'm actually writing this review as I'm watching this drama for the second time in the year of its release.

I often skip scenes when listening to Chinese dramas, since with around forty episodes, there are often boring scenes that are there only as filling, but with this drama, I wasn't bored for a single minute—there's an excellent balance between plot, romance and humor.

The characters in this drama were refreshing. The main female character, Shen Li, is strong, responsible and stubborn yet cute. She has a unique charm. On the other hand, Xingzhi seems weak and a bit goofy, but he possesses great wisdom. If Shen Li is fire, he is water. These two actors have done a remarkable job, and their chemistry is out of this word.

As for the production, I loved everything: the special effects, the costumes, the make-up, the landscapes, but above all the music, which gave me chills and tears in almost every episode.

In short, this drama is a curse: I don't know if I'll ever be able to find a drama better or even as good as this one.

Go watch it right now!
