United as Husband & Wife—Destined together | Will always choose each other in this lifetime <3

I want to commence this review by saying how this drama gave me peace of mind, tranquil and warmth. I didn't exactly know how it happened at first but I later realized that it is all because this story created such a homey vibe...a feeling of security, strong bond, genuine concern and unconditional love that effortlessly resonated to its viewers which made me watch this in a comfortable and peaceful manner. I know it may sound weird, but I feel a lot kinder now. Hahaha! I would say they succeed in building a connection to their viewers on how they want them to view this drama as a whole. I believe they want people to know and understand that kindness, compassion and willingness to help can keep anyone away from worries, selfish desires and greed; and that it can become an instrument, a guide and inspiration for us to take on the right path to achieve a fullfiling and sucessful life.

I don't wanna make comparisons and I will not, however, I just wanna mention that this drama gave me the same vibe I felt when I was watching "The sword and the brocade" but this time the ML is a lot nicer and that there really isn't so much drama and scheming going on within the household. It maybe because of the story as both of the Female leads were forced into marriage but, more so, I think it's because of the FL and her gentle demeanor, intelligence and philanthropic activities to help people that made me reminisce of TSATB. All in all I love both dramas and I am really into this kind of story that highlights women and how capable they can be.

Story (Line, progression and twist) - I love how the story line focuses on the Main leads and stayed commited that way until the very end. I think this is one of those dramas who didn't get greedy in building so much side stories only to end up not using them. I also like the fact that all the supposed side stories were treated as a special scenes where we're only updated about their whereabouts just to check on how they're doing. It feels more satisfying that way because I don't really have to get stress on what will happen to them nor get bothered on whether we get an update or not. No strings attached at all! But kudos to the Writer for still keeping them in the story while casually giving us their life updates. I just also wanna add up that Luo Zishang's origin revelation is something unexpected yet makes a lot of sense to me. I never really bothered about his hatered, so when it was revealed at the end, I instead feel bad for what he went through at the same time happy that he get to meet his father as a consolation of his traumatic and tough childhood. But then again, he commited a lot of hideous and condemnable acts to get pitied. Well deserve death and a satisfying ending for him I'd say.

Overall design, CGI and Costume - The budget must have been huge because the entirety of the drama looks grand and luxurious. The wedding alone looks elegant and expensive, so what more with the other details I may have overlooked all throughout. The design and set up of each scenes are mostly intricate and it feels like the department handling this stuff made sure that eveything looks perfect the best way they can. CGI and editing are looking good too! and although I can still notice the use of green screens, I would say it's not as bad compared to other dramas out there who look straight up terrible. In regards to costume, I wanna say that they've got some good stylist with them. The choice of colors and designs for the costumes are great and I never felt that something is wrong with them. Most of the time I was even in awe on how good they're in making the costumes look beautiful and elegant no matter how simple they are. This also helped the actors/actresses to look more attractive and charming.

Lastly is the progression of the Main Leads' love story. The chemistry has always been there but Ghad! Bai Jingting and Song Yi's acting put it into another level. I love how their relationship gradually improved as time passes by because it showcased the real definition of Falling in love unexpectedly and unconditionally. I can still remember how the ML falling in love with the FL felt so magical. This story is simply so good. + I also appreciate that both of them are such mature characters who knew each other very well because it helped the story avoid unnecessary conflicts out of jealousy and misunderstandings.

Story - 10, This is such an inspiring and impressive story. I love how they're able to create a narrative that goes beyond the typical full of jealousy drama and was able to create such a strong and wonderful love story with firm foundation. Another factor that impresses me is on how they executed this drama with proper phasing even with all the timeskips that has transpired all throughout. What a Great Job!

Acting/Cast - 10, I'm very satisfied with the cast and I can never picture any other person playing the main and support roles; and as I mentioned above, the combination of Song Yi and Bai Jing Ting made this extra special and precious to me. This is also the first time where I truly appreciate and fell in love with Song Yi as an actress. Her acting is great + she looks extra beautiful here! My goodness! Liu Xue Yi did an impressive job too portraying his character, as well as the other supporting casts.

Music - 10, Proper placement of music and I also love their choice of BGMs in every scenes. + I love that they have full control of the volume of the song and never allowed it to overshadow nor drown the scenes it was used to even a single time.

Rewatch Value - 10, This is one of those dramas I will truly watch if I have more time and lesser drama to watch. I really appreciate the entirety of this production.

Overall - 10, Do I need to say more? Everything about this feel so precious and so close to me. I love the story so much and I also appreciate how they were able to tell the story in a nice and a broad-minded way. I highly recommend this drama specially to those who love the Main Cast!

Hypervigilant household | Beautiful woman are the most dangerous

"Do you know what tool the lions use to hunt? Patience." - Gong Shangjue

My Journey to You is a complex yet addicting story that will make you buckle up to your seat for how exciting it gets each coming episodes. Definitely one of the best espionage drama I have ever seen for the last couple of years. The production was taken seriously and they did not hold back even one bit in executing suspenseful and exciting sequences till the very end. Although it ended on a cliffhanger which made me contemplate so much on how should I rate it but considering on how good it was constructed, I still ended up throwing all those dissatisfaction off of the window simple because I know that this drama deserves so much more in comparison to all the contradicting reviews it has gotten from its viewers who probably came watching it looking for some lovey-dovey clichė love story following the success of The love of Fairy and Devil.

One important factor of this show that I really wanna talk about is its balance. I love that they went all out with this drama in terms of providing thrilling and hilarious scenes by incorporating a lot of funny antics through Gong Zi Shang. She may seem weird and absurd at first for her slapstick personality but she of all the characters has made the greatest difference for me to enjoy this drama even more. She's like the comedian among the pack of wolves—silly, clumsy and delusional. The story has become more brighter and entertaining thanks to her huge presence all throughout the show.

I also wanna talk about the word plays and the atmosphere of the drama. The exchange of sarcasms and double edge proverbs has always fascinates me but the way they're delivered here felt even more lethal and sensational. Each character has this mysterious aura to them that will make you wonder how will they react to each situation every single time simply because of how unpredictable they all can be.

Another thing I found unique is their way of showing the flashbacks. I find it amusing and puzzling at first because of how melodramatic, emotional and long it can typical be but then I realized later on that it is their other way of story telling. I love how they efficiently utilized it to make sure that no mysteries are forgotten and unaddressed which is ingenious and innovative now that I finished the drama. I also just wanna mention how intricate and expressive they are in making all those flashbacks; because you can feel that they're perfectly put together not to simply show what has happened behind the scenes but to also express the emotions during those scenes. Brilliant and satisfying!

Lastly, the chemistry between the Main leads. I find it really frustrating how people are saying that Yu Shu Xin and Zhang Ling He (and their characters) got no chemistry at all. Like, are they blind? Those two has showed the most chemistry of all the pairings of this drama (not including Gong Shang Jue and Gong Yuan Zhi cause they're on a different tier list Lol) and I still feel the butterflies in my stomach whenever I reminisce through their cute and intimate scenes! So, what are they talking about? Maybe it was overshadowed by the plot and all the mess going on with the story but certainly both of them has good chemistry and synergy. Same level of chemitry I feel for Jin Fan and Gong Zi Shang.

P.S. Episode 19 is peak martial arts exhibition!! Insane camera works, amazing swords play and top class choreography! Definitely my most favorite episode of all.

Story - 10, It was intricately created and may seem complex at first but the more you dive into it, the more exciting and entertaining it gets. The show is highly concentrated on the plot and how it goes and not your typical drama where it focuses on the love story. Which is great because this is an espionage themed drama after all.

Acting/Cast - 10, I'm sold! This made me realize how good of an actress Yu Shu Xin is. Her expression and body movements are all on point, same goes with Zhang Ling He. Another actors/actresses I want to mention for portraying their characters flawlessly are Ryan Cheng, Tian Jia Rui, Lu Yu Xiao and most specially Jolin Jin. What an spectacular set of great actors!

Music - 10, Honestly, I was quite bothered by the use of music during the Sword Wielder's tribute flashback but as time goes on, I just naturally resonated and got moved by the emotions brought by the BGMs used. So, Good Job to the Music department for bring in your AAA+ game.

Rewatch Value - 10, This is one of those dramas I got no problem re-watching at all. I even think that we could have gotten more episodes. Not to mention each episode is mostly an hour long yet I still need more! And honestly, I find it more appealing and entertaining compared to those highly romanticize Idol dramas. So, don't even hesitate and just go watch it!

Overall - 10, Definitely the superior Yu Shu Xin and Zhang Ling He drama together. If you know what I'm saying. Hahaha! I like almost everything about this drama aside from that cliffhanger at the very end... but even with that, this drama's still a precious one for me. It executed and greatly delivered!

The Fearless, Good Natured & Quick-Witted Main Leads + Unending Plotting & Scheming in a Harem.

Where do I even start with?... This drama could honestly be better if they toned down a little bit on the unending plotting and scheming that resulted to some of them getting repetitive and irritating. It went on and on to the point where it feels like they spent 85% of the story on it and that's really disappointing cause I feel like they could've done more and better with its 54 episodes in comparison to what it has right now.

Honestly, the plotting and scheming weren't bad at all instead it was crafty and intelligent. However, anything 'too much is bad' and that's what made me raise my brow a little; but overall it was great.

Also, I love how versatile they're in changing the mood of the scenes; They go from being intense to mellow in literally a second and that really helps in lighting up the mood a lot of times. Aside from that, one thing that made this drama lighter and fun are the side story of Ming De X Tuoba Di as we as Cheng De X Jun Tao. They saved the viewers and the drama from its maximum distress and grief countless of times.

Another thing I wanna mention is the horrendous styling of Wei Young and Jun Tao on the first episode. it almost ruin my taste and expectation of the drama; thank god they improved and redeemed theirselves afterwards. Also the ridiculous and clichè plots has left some lingering distate on my mouth. I mean, how could they put it like that? who the hell incorporated them in this? cause I badly wanna talk and scold them for it. This could've been great if only the writers' tried harder in brainstorming better ideas to make the story more interesting and 'new' story wise.

Lastly, fighting scenes are extremely lacking and majority of them are bad. The only good ones are with Chuyan Nan and Jun Tao while the rest are trash and full of camera works.+ OVER DUBBING sucks! It was the worst! ><

Story - 9.0, It could've been better if they lessen the excessive plotting and scheming but even with it the story overall is good. It did reach a point where it started to get really irritating but I would never say it's bad. It was cunning and crafty well done however improvements can still be applied in a lot of areas. + The ending is just Great! It may not be the best conclusion to a story but it was satisfying and reasonable.

Acting/Cast - 10, Stellar!! Luo Jin is automatically a 10 over 10 and no one really did badly overall. I'm also glad to know that the main leads has acted on multiple projects before and I guess that helped out so much with their chemistry. Hell! They're even married in real life and that made me even thrilled in watching in. — I'm extremely satisfied and really entertained with each one of their performances.

Music - 10, Great use of ballad and mellow music. Ghad, i'm in love with every songs used on this drama. I have another batch of great music added on my playlist to listen to. Really love it <3

Rewatch Value - 9.5, It surely have its bad sides but I think that's not a heavy reason for me to slander this drama in any means possible. I was well entertained and fascinated all throughout the drama and that's what really matters to me. I would still watch it again if given a chance for sure.

Overall - 9.5, This drama was not perfect. It wasn't even bad and definitely better than 'decent'. It just got some minor plot issues but aside from them it is really good. I contemplated a lot whether to give it a 9.0 or 9.5 but at the end this drama just fallback in one or two particular area and the rest are really great so this rating is just enough and deserving I'd say.

Incredibly Fun and Entertaining Wuxia Drama with Impressive Fighting Scenes~!!

Wow! I'm truly impressed. I never thought this drama's going to be this good and entertaining to watch. It reminded me why you shouldn't judge a drama merely out of peoples opinions and feedbacks.

Well, First thing first, SCRATCH all those negative feedbacks I've red about this drama even before I decided to watch this. People do really have different tastes and expectations to almost every single thing however I felt like this production didn't deserve any of those at all. In fact, this drama served and exceeded so much of my pre-set expectations; thank god I trusted my instinct and chose this one among many others.

There are really so much good things about this drama and this review might become 20+ pharagraph long (Hahaha) so let me just enumerate most of them.

× The smooth, Fun and entertaining story that got me hooked up from the very start till the end. I swear to god there's no dull moments in this drama.

× Fighting Skills are mostly impressive and detailed. You can definitely see that they took their time to practice those stunts to make it look pleasing and cool in the camera.

× Characters are well coordinated and for some reason they found a way to make them look interesting that you got no choice but to remember them even when they only appear 1-2 times for a short period of time.

× Cinematography, Color scheme and overall representation of the drama look pleasant in the eye. Nothing extra and bizarre going on and the costume are well matched and fits each individual characters.

Oh well... A drama can never be perfect and I admit to have creased my forehead several times due to some repetitive and ridiculous story plots and twists so let me mention some of those stuff as well.

× Let's start with the 6 member of Top 10 Villain who're supposedly strong and wicked but are just a bunch of tricky, gullible and weak individuals. I expected them to have atleast intermediate Kung Fu skills but they just don't. Bunch of disappointments on that area honestly + they lack an actual sense in the story and was killed as if they don't have anything better planned for them.

× Overly gullible Female Characters... I'm just so sick of people making women look strong and tough only to make them highly deceiveable and emotionally weak. Come on! Y'all can do better than that.

× Last but definitely not the least is the somehow predictable and bland ending. Like, How do I even start with how cringy and plain their actings are at the final episode? It felt forced and awkward. Did they shoot that scene at the very beginning? cause I never had any problem with their acting eversince aside from the final episode. That realy made me go "Ehhh! what was that? Lol".

Anyways, A drama that everyone can enjoy specially to those who are looking for nice, smooth and light Wuxia drama.

Story - 9.5, I contemplated a lot and ended up with this score after considering everything. Don't get me wrong, story is real good and have good ending. It's just that most of the scenes during the last episode felt so ordinary and plain. It felt like their creative juices was squeezed and drained so much throughout the entire run of the drama that they just throw what's the most obvious and simple at the end.

Acting/Cast - 9.5, This drama got the most irritating antagonists there is but that's actually why I love this story even more. I was very amazed on the way they personified and executed their characters to the point where I hated them so much too. What a love-hate relarionship Hahaha + The only thing that made me disappointed about it is the Final Episode. That's just so underwhelming in every single way. /sighs/

Music - 10, I love the choice of BGMs and I'm really impressed on how they inserted those sounds in the most comfortable way. They were all smoothly placed and Ballad is everything. <3

Rewatch Value - 10, This drama is high-praise-worthy and is one of the drama that made me binge-watch continuously this year. It is so exciting and made me look forward to each and every coming episodes without a miss. Will definitely rewatch it 100%.

Overall - 9.5, It should've been Perfect 10 but the continuous display of women manipulation + lack of actual character sense and value made me frustrated.
Not to mention the ever-plain-ending that made it even worse which led me to this conclusion after so much contemplation.

Serving Quality Beyond Expectation. + ML's Overflowing Adorable & Funfilled Chemistry.

That was way better than I expected.— Honestly, I started and chose this drama just to escape the tiring and time consuming 40-50+ episode dramas so my expectation for this one is fairly average but the more you watch it the more you'll realize that this piece had a great production team behind it who worked their best to break stereotypes against this kind of short-romantic-costume dramas.

I feel like this drama served not only Good Story line but even excelled in terms of Music, Acting, Cinematography and proper choice of scenes and color schemes. It's one of the 'Not-so-Perfect' dramas that literally served above and beyond set expectations.

Oh Well, Of course! This drama got some flaws but one thing I love about them is that they're rather mild? and most of the time unnoticeable not unless you're extremely keen to notice them.

Also, some of the scenes were too mushy and cringey for me. Well, I guess? it's understandable since it is still lined up under such genre. I think I'm just grateful that they didn't overdid them so they still appeared to be bearable. Aside from that I really got no major complains about this production overall.

Still a watch-worthy drama that can sooth your heart during crazy-painful days. Not much drama going on and had a good variety of pure laughter and adorable-ness.

Story - 9.0, This drama didn't have any crazy plot around it but can still make you thinking about what-ifs and such. It was created to entertain people and to lift their moods up and not to stress them out and cause them migraines.

Acting/Cast - 10, Surprisingly, the set of actors in this drama is good, Like REAL GOOD! They simply delivered even during the most important scenes; not to mention the casual day-to-day scenes and cuts. I'm literally at awe and highly satisfied of their acting and overall performances.

Music - 10, Majority of the Songs played are truly pleasing to my ears and is well-fitted to the dramas overall mood and dynamics. I felt like they really picked the right tune and sound for each of them.

Rewatch Value - 9.0, IF you're going to ask me to watch it again I would probably say "Yes!" but not after completing the long list of dramas lined up for me to watch. Nonetheless this drama deserves every view counts it can get.

Overall - 9.0, To be very transparent, 20minutes before finishing the drama It was already set in my mind that I'll give it an 8.0-8.5 rating BUT that final moment changed my mind drastically and made me go over the entire production deeply; in consideration of how well created it actually is. So after some moments of thinking I've decided to give it a 9.0 as I finished my re-evaluation and out of mere respect for this drama.

Would've been better w/o the 1st Half + Unexpected Unconditional Love & Trust from Main Leads.

Before I even start with my reaction I just wanna give a crucial advice to anyone who's planning to watch this drama.

[!!!] IF you ever felt so done and tired of this drama during the first 25+ episodes just stick a tiny bit longer cause its second half have all the best this drama has to offer.

So lemme start cause I'm itching to list down my thoughts, complains and opinions about this drama.

First thing first, the unnecessary 1st half of this drama ruined everything for me. I would say that this drama is much better off without it. That part is a combination of all the trash you could ever incorporate to make a drama extremely annoying and bad. If given a chance I would definitely skip most of it and only watch the good portion of it — Like, Hell~!! Even the main leads are irritating on that part and just thinking how badly written that was infuriates me. I was also quite impressed on how bearing I am to actually stay despite all those moments I almost gave up on this piece, yet managed to get back by keeping a positive mindset of its redemption parts... and I must say it didn't disappoint one bit.

Second, Although this drama may look overly 'clichè' but NO WORRIES this drama is a complete contradictory of what it may seemed and looked like. In fact, this drama surprised me on how opposite the story outcomes are in comparrison to all the dramas I have watched so far and I must say that it made this drama completely different and has even become its saving grace overall. (P.S. All of those are on 2nd half, so you'll better hang tight)

Third and Last will fall directly towards the entirety of the drama itself. It was both a pleasure and depressing to watch this drama overall. Imagine having to bear with 28+ episodes just to get to the exciting part was real mad and insane however I wanna guarantee everyone that you'll surely experience the redemption arc of this story right after reaching and passing that huge-long slump.

P.S. The fighting scenes are executed really well and the comical moments are really fun to watch.

Story - 8.5, I'm still hesitant even at this point but I can never give it any higher done this. Half of this drama is trash and it felt like that trashy part was set up mainly to make the protagonists look terrible and to showcase the main villain's evil plans. It was completely useless and non-sensical no matter how much I think of it cause this drama can easily go on without those.

Acting/Cast - 10, This section of the drama is something I'm extremely certain of. Despite all the negative opinions I have towards the drama and story itself; I must say that the actors who acted in this drama extracted all their emotions and expertise in portraying and giving life to their respective characters. Compliments and High praises.

Music - 8.5, Again, saved by the sudden BGM inserts at the latter part of the drama. Honestly, the BGMs are so random and doesn't fit the mood and scenes of the drama 2/3 of the time. Thank god they use better songs during the remaining 15+ episodes that helped to save this section for me.

Rewatch Value - 8.5, I may seemed insane but I wanna clarify that I would rewatch it while scanning through the important scenes only and will continue to the 2nd half right away after enjoying some of those nice scenes.

Overall - 8.5, I still feel like it can go up to 9 but after coming this far and looking back at my scores made me decide that this is just right. Considering how they fucked and messed up HALF of this drama is enough to justify my rating. But after all those mess I assure everyone that this drama has 'Good-to-Great' moments moving forward.

Absurd & Outrageous Comedic Scenes Paired with Ridiculous yet Cringe-Worthy Story line~!!

GAYNESS OVERLOAD!!

I don't know. I just cannot. I'm still in a great daze right now trying to digest everything while attempting to write this review 1minute after I finish the drama.

2 words to precisely describe this drama is 'Ridiculously Insane'. Honestly, It has so much ups and downs and I have mixed feelings about it. At one point I feel so stressed, frustrated and irritated watching this drama then minutes after I'll find myself dying out of mere comedy and insanity.

This drama served so much unexpected laughter and out of context scenarios but somehow was able to both damage and strengthen my opinion over it as a whole. This is CRAZY I must say. It's on a tier of its own, unrivaled.

1st, let's talk about how they overly sexualized women at the first half of the drama. Even when it's done by the FL, those scenes still felt wrong yet it was saved by it's comedic touches.

2nd, the Modern-Ancient scenes of this drama is so cringy I almost puke watching them but then was saved by the witty, hilarious and strong approach of the FL.

3rd, the clothing! Ghad! It fslt so wrong yet I'm satisfied by it. This drama has the most indecent, revealing yet stylish costume of all Period dramas I've ever watched. Kudos for that.

4th, considering the fact that It's a low budget drama; It was able to deliver so well in various areas specially on the acting, Visuals, Cinematopraphy and lastly Costume. The only let down is its all over the place scenes, writing anf story itself.

Nonetheless, It was FINE!? IF you're looking for a drama with Outrageous and Ridiculous Scenes and Story then this is for you.

Story - 8, I would love to give it a higher mark but the ending could've been more interesting and light. It is an open ended story that's unsure of its sequel. Story itself felt so dramatic and heavy at a scene then will immediately shift to crazy and ridiculous comedic scenes. I felt retarded and insane following the mood of this production like 100% of the time.

Acting/Cast - 10, The Actors/Actresses of this drama is on a different level of excellent character portrayal. Each of their scenes were performed spectacularly and with so much concentration and passion. I can see the hardships they went through to deliver and to fulfill the expectation for their respective characters.

Music - 9, I almost failed to appreciate the songs because I was so distracted by the entire mess this production is serving but they redeemed themselves and was able to flex their Music out at the last 10 episodes of the drama.

Rewatch Value - 7, This drama is Perfect ONLY at first watch. Rewatching might actually irritate anyone since most of the time the sequences are so out of the topic and unrelateable. Absurd.

Overall - 8.5, Okay! I kinda gave an extra points cause I love and enjoy it as a whole. It may have its ups and downs but It was able to serve its purpose which is to entertain and to make its audiences laugh. Like I mentioned on my Bio. I'm a reasonable guy; As long as I enjoyed it, I will certainly give it proper acknowledgement and appreciation.

BEAUTIFUL~!! Chaotic yet Fascinatingly Heartwarming and satisfying. <3

I don't know where to start. This drama's probably the longest for me to finish but also one of fhe most worth while of all.

Lemme start it by giving my earnest feedback; It all started as a very mysterious and adorable that gradually ended with so much schemes and fighting (Which I love as well). The thing here is that as time passes by you'll start to hate the supposedly 'Good People' due to their over judgement and hypocrisy and that very reason made me felt that bitter hate and distate. Thankfully this drama do provide justice and 'redemption' so almost all of those issue dissipated eventually when it neared its finale.

Secondly, I love how this drama served us different variety of feelings and emotions. It truly entails and showcases different ways and path of life and thought us/me how to look on the brighter side although it may look ridiculous. I feel like this production delivered in every aspect it possibly touched and has successfully handled them accordingly.

Of course, 'NO' drama is perfect and all of them mostly has flaws and broken holes but I feel like this story deserves to be place on a different level; separating it from the rest of it's origin. It is that impactful to me and it has successfully secured a great place in my heart.

Story - 10, The story is a continuous roller coaster of events that can make you feel differently each time but it surely is with a purpose. A well written drama with great plotd and overly irritating Minor 'Supposedly' Protagonist and Main Antagonists. It also overflows with love and tenderness coming from various individuals and their relationship towards the people around them. So much lesson to learn and way of life to appreciate and adapt to.

Acting/Cast - 10, SPECTACULAR!! i love all of the artists in this production. All of them truly delivered and expressed the greatest extent of emotions and actions their characters should present and I can't ask for more. I'm truly moved and triggered. Hahaha~ Special mention to Liu XueYi, as this is the first drama of him that made me hate him to core. Also wanna shower some love and appreciation towards the main leads and the minor leads. They're all splendid.

Music - 10, No discussions needed. Music is Perfect from the first Track till the end. Each and every Music touched and moved me to their own rhythm and melody. I enjoyed it the most among all of the OSTs of over 60+ dramas I watched this year.

Rewatch Value - 10, Solid 10. Highly RECOMMEND! Everything about this drama is spectacular and lovely in it's own way and deserved nothing but recognition, love and support. I would watch it a gazzilion times if needed.

Overall - 10, Any scores lower than 10 is absurd. This drama may not be perfect but there's no such thing as perfect drama and this one is like a cut from a very expensive and royal piece of clothing. Must treasure and protect.

What do y'all mean Mediocre? This is a Gem!

I honestly started watching this drama because of Choi Sooyoung and was quite surprise on how many people left reviews with the word "Mediocre" so i'm hear to rip that off.

This drama actually started rough for me, during those moments i kept asking "I need a 2nd lead" & "This drama lacks a 2nd leading man to console the Female Lead" but after few more episodes it all comes to me as to why the writer made it that way. It's simply because the Female Lead is a grown up woman who thinks rational and can decide for her own and that's her charming point that sets her apart from other FL out there.

I must agree the ML is a bit toxic at first but you just gotta hang in there and see how he turns out to be the nicest and most compassionate of them all. This drama doesn't follow the norms of the current trendy drama of 2020-2021 and that's the main reason why I love how this drama was delayed till this year, since it was able to give off such different vibe and made me nostalgic of how dramas were created 3-5 years ago.

Story - 8.5, The story is very unique that will remind you of how dramas were usually created back then. It helps me open my mind to various ways of how people can deal with tons of situations in a mature & rational way.

Acting/Cast - 10, Definitely!! The set of Artist of this drama made me feel so much and they all deserved an applause or two for that.

Music - 9.5, I may not have notice the Music and BGMs at first since I was too engrossed to the story but it will definitely hit you hard when you're at the middle part of the drama. Every song suits the scenes well.

Rewatch Value - 8, This is the kind of drama that i may not watch for months or so, unless I need to remind myself on how to deal and cope up with situations in a rational way. It has that significant Rewatch Value.

Overall - 9, Definitely a MUST watch specially to those people who needs inspiration and is on a pinch situation where it's hard to find motivation to remain positive and optimistic.

Please let me know how do you find my review. Hope it helps. =)

I had High Expectation....

I watched this series with an expectation that it would be great but for some reason I find it underwhelming and quite disappointing...

The story started great and it was doing well, not until you reach the latter half of it and realizes how would it end? Usually I get really ecstatic over it but it was different this time, It's more of worries and confusion that I had while reaching the end.

I felt like there's a lot of things going on in this series that made it less appealing to me. I even got bored at times but thank god they got good action scenes and that saved and redeem the story a little bit for me.

Story - 7.5, The story has become sooo dragging at one point and I felt like it has so much plot twist that made it lose it's color and excitement. They should've focus more on building the story itself and creating more relevant progress.

Acting/Cast - 9.5, Acting wise they all did exceptionally good! I felt the emotions they are trying to portray and deliver and that's a good indication of great acting and casting for me.

Music - 7, They used less music for this drama but it's quite understandable since the drama was set for suspense and action scenes. Anyways, I enjoyed the moment they used the LP Player. Such a mood and a game changer.

Rewatch Value - 7, Honestly, I'm lucky to know that this is part of a series cause if not I might need to watch it again just incase I started to watch the other Candle in the Tomb Series. That saved me some time.

Overall - 8, Nonetheless, it was a decent drama. Aside from the fact that they have to improve something on their story bulding department the rest are really well created!
