Best costume drama for 2021 yet!

I love this drama! The chemistry between the leads is fantastic. The storyline is captivating from ep 1, no draggy scenes or sideplots. It is fast paced and full of action. The music is beautiful especially the ending theme song. Each story arc shows charcoal development and growth with good transition between scenes. This is my fav 2021 costume drama so far!

Leo as Ashile Sun is masculine, handsome and the perfect hero. His costume as Tegin is ?. Diralba as Change Ge is smart, beautiful and strong. I think it is her best drama so far, she has converted me (was not impressed with her previous projects) I love every moment they are on screen together. The acting is superb, all the subtle facial expressions, eye moments makes all the scenes stand out.

My only complaint is the input of additional cartoon scenes were annoying and wish there was more romance scenes between the leads. That’s just because I’m a sucker for romance and will never see enough.

Highly recommended drama for anyone who likes strong male/female lead, no whiny 3rd wheels and good choreography of martial arts and battle scenes.

Watch only for the Xu Kai Bai Lu chemistry, wishing your real life has a love story like that. Cannot wait to see these two in another drama as leads again.
Xu Kai is so hot, his eyes and smile is to die for. Bai Lu is very pretty, she is a strong character.
I love the romance between the leads, everytime they are on screen together, its captivating and you just want to keep watching. Wish those scenes were extended. Felt like in every period Cdrama these days, leads don’t seem to get as much screen time as the other characters, even when the audience only wants to watch them.
Drama has too many filler scenes which I did not watch and just fast forwarded. The ending also has messy editing which made the drama confusing. Should have just halved the content and watch the leads on screen. Rewatching the lead scenes and listen to OST. Totally addicted to them.
