Not your mediocre time travel drama
One of the best time travel dramas and probably the best drama I’ve watched this year. The story is very unique which I’ve never seen in any Kdrama before. Overall it is such a heartwarming and refreshing drama. Definitely worth to watch.The acting of the casts were stunning and I definitely fell in love with each of the characters especially Yi Chan and Se Gyeong.
The songs in the drama are very nice too!! I really like all of them.
Don’t hesitate to watch, I guarantee that you will love this masterpiece.

Not the best but enjoyable
Among the dramas currently airing in early 2025, this is the only one I’m still watching. There’s nothing particularly new or spectacular about this drama, but at least it’s not boring. The story follows the typical xianxia format: tragic pasts for the leads, a quest for revenge, a willingness to die for each other, the death of a beloved one, unexpected superpowers, etc. Despite its predictability, it’s still enjoyable if you’re looking for something to watch leisurely.As for the acting of the main leads, Bailu is decent, as usual, but Ao Rui Peng doesn’t quite have the vibe of a “Demon King.” He doesn’t look intimidating or exude the aura of a king. To me, he doesn’t even seem particularly powerful. While he’s doing fine in other areas, I still feel something is missing in his performance.
The side stories are quite interesting as well. Up until the episodes I’ve watched, the tragic love between Rong Xian and Ling Long has been the most memorable. Some shots and filters used are questionable, but they don’t significantly affect the overall drama. After all, it’s a fantasy drama, so it’s best to shut off your logic and just enjoy it.

Don’t watch if you have high expectations
Honestly, I don’t really have a high expectation for this drama even before the airing because this kind of story usually ended up the same for every drama. But, I was so excited to watch Dylan Wang and Bailu pair up for the first time. After watching more than half of the episodes, I am neither disappointed nor satisfied with how the story goes. For most of the part, the story is rather boring and slow but the tension, romance between the main leads somehow managed to make it better. Some people may drop this drama soon but if you like very very very light, comedy and cliche drama, plus if you also love to see Dylan Wang or Bailu this drama is for you. If not, you might not be able to even finish the first episode. Personally, I will continue to watch this drama until the end just to see more of Dylan’s acting and of course his visual hahah.Was this review helpful to you?
