Wuxia Romance
Word of Honor is one of the best BL adaptation in 2021. It has conspiracy, betrayal, revenge, acceptive, and ultimately, finding your soulmate. It's a love story of two protagonist who are willing to defend one another and die for each other.
A family of 5.
Zhou Zishu (Zhang Zhehan), retired from being the leader of "The Window of Heaven" by taking extreme measure to gain his freedom for 3 years. He just wanted to be left alone and enjoyed the rest of his remaining life being a wanderer.
Wen Kexing ( Gong Jun), a leader of the Ghost Valley who just want to take revenge for things done wrong to him.
Zhang Chengling (Sun Xilun) is very naive and kind. Eventually became Zhou Zishu's disciple.
Gu Xiang (Zhou Ye) is Wen Kexing's "maid." She fell in love with Cao Weining.
Cao Weining (Ma Wen Yuan) is a very kind young man who fell in love with Gu Xiang.
In another other drama, Zhou Zishu and Wen Kexing would be the villains' or the side characters of the main hero. Chengling would be the hero in such a story. Chengling go thru the growth of a typical Wuxia hero. That's why it's such a great thing to see everything thru the eyes of the "side" characters. Both Zhou Zishu and Wen Kexing don't pretend to be good people. They know who they are and what they are: people who have not done a lot of good things.
They both found love and acceptive in one another. They are soulmates.....and nothing else matter.
There are so many supporter characters and they all played their parts so well.
It's not a prefect show. It does have some set back toward the ending due some editing. Maybe they ran out of money so a lot of important events happened off stage, but I could still use my imagination to fill in the gap. I wish it has 5 more episodes so we could see all the things that need to be shown to be a perfect show. Still, I'm very happy with the ending.
At the end of the day, Word of Honor is one of the best show I have watched. I cannot describe it but I love this drama so much. I have watched it 3 times from beginning to end without skipping. I watched some episodes multiples times. I highly recommend WOH to all drama watcher.
