Fateful Love (2024) is a romance fantasy wuxia with Hans Zhang as Jun Bei Yue / 4th Prince and Zhu Xu Dan as Han Zi Qing as the leading couple. The series plot has too many attacks on the leading lady and the lead male is not always there on time to save her which made the plot repetitive and unnecessary with an incredible amount of characters that wanted her dead. The leading lady was capable and she did a good job performing her character as a strong and intelligent female lead. The male lead also did well performing his character so, where is the problem? Unnecessary characters that disrupted the flow of the story, the leading couple lacked romantic chemistry, and the end, although they seemed like they ended together, was not satisfying at all; he didn’t seem like he recognized her after saving her from the cave that she fell in at the beginning nor did he give any indication that he knew who she was when she embraced him, so much for a “fateful love”. This is a series where good and experienced actors seemed to just want to finish the drama and move on as fast as they can.
