So beautiful (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*.✧

My review of "Eternal Love of Dream" a.k.a "Watch God Dong Hua act like a kitten"

Actually I think the main story is the same as in TMOPB. Only the interpretion is different as well as the further story. Feng Jui still falls in love with Dong Hua when he saves her, and she still wants to return the favor by serving him as a maid and follow him to the mortal realm to help his cultivation. But everything else is different. It's more clear, more interesting, more beautiful! Also the cameo of Bai Qai makes this really look like a second season but you can still watch it without having seen TMOPB. The story is more entangled and deep than that. It kept my interest at the highest to figure out those mysteries (like Aranyas Dream).

It is as slow paced as TMOPB at the beginning. The main leads only meet in their real forms like in around ep 20. But that doesn't matter. Again, the story needs the time to unfold - to be told, and I love every single second of it. It's not boring at all. If anything I wish it had even more episodes xD.
AND! In contrast to TMOPB the side chicks aren't as delusional and frustrating! They handled them quite fast and they didn't even got the chance to annoy me xD.

ACTING&CHARACTERS:
I dont think I have to mention that the acting is outstanding since they all are very good actors. Vengo Gao is playing 3 different characters and I didn't like the 1 of them but loved the other 2. But it's the same actor, lol. So he is amazing at portraying his roles! And Dilraba was great too! :)

I love the character developement here. I always wanted to see a different side of Dong Hua and I wasn't disappointed. He always acted cold, unreachable and distanced but as as he fell for Feng Jui he behaves like a cute mischievous kitten around her. He is so perfect! But also Feng Jui developed a lot and its amazing to see that.

Si Ming is still my favorite side character. Is it too much to wish for a 3d season about him? >.<

MUSIC ♪
I LOVE the opening. The song is so beautiful. And althought the OSTs aren't my typically taste in music, I love the OSTs! Specially "Pian Pian"! They give the story the mystic and nostalgic feeling it deserves. I think the whole story feels like a secret legend. ♡ The lyrics are so fitting and meaningful - my poor heart..

NOTES
I want to say that I love the themes and character posters. They are so pretty! (❁´◡`❁)

FINAL WORDS
I just can't believe how much I love this drama! I mostly watch dramas with fewer episodes since I get bored easily and TMOPB was an exception. So I thought it would be difficult to be as good as this. But I LOVED this so much! One of the best dramas out there. I need some time to get over it. Hope this wasn't the last one. <3

Watch it! Enjoy
