Wait, a nude scene...in a C-drama?
This is first historical C-drama that I watched in which there were nude scenes, and I was shocked. It totally caught me by surprise lol. Hu Bing who played Tian Hui Di is a hottie. He looks like he could be brothers with Ethan from Legend of Fu Yao.
The storyline is actually really good, although it's very similar to most Chinese historical dramas that I've watched.
What I did not like is the Ou Yang Ning Jing character (not the actress). She bullied, harassed and forced herself upon the character Chu Xi Feng, although he told her several times that he wasn't interested in her. No means no! This drama could have def. done without their story. Additionally, I find the cold guy acting (meaning the acting skills of the male leads when they are supposed to be aloof and cold) in C & K-dramas very strange. The director could have kept the cold guy persona, but had the male lead character Long Fei Ye act cold through his words and actions, and not via hs facial expression which looks like he just seen a ghost. Also, I just hate in C-dramas how after a couple gets married they are basically asexual, c'mon now! I'm not saying that they should be having sex in every scene or even show sex scenes, but it would be nice to show the married couples in bed together, thus, alluding that they've been intimate.
I will give the first 14 episodes a rating of an 8.5. I will update this review after I finish watching the whole drama.
