I've recently become a fan of C-dramas/K- dramas specifically historical ones. Nowadays I get so tired of all the same storylines where I can predict what is going to happen BUT this one honestly blew my mind! (Although I am an absolute sap for a happy ending)

The graphics are insane- it has enough plot twists to keep you going and wanting more!

The characters are really well played, the love between Jinmi and Xufeng is quite endearing. I actually felt so sorry for Runyu in the end, it's almost like he was doomed from the start since he wasn't a legit child of the Emperor's.

I find this similar to Eternal love in the fact that the main love interests eventually found a happy ending as well as the links between the heavenly and demon realms- but nevertheless they went through ALOT of shit to get there lol.

So far I have watched:

Rise of the Phoenixes- this is the drama that sent me on this amazing C-drama/K-drama journey

Empress Ki

Princess Wei-Young

Eternal love

& of course this one.

Pleaseeeeeee send me some suggestions on similar ones I can watch?

I cannot believe how incredibly compelling and wonderous this drama is. It takes away from the typical sons fighting for the throne type of story line, in fact the families were quite supportive of one another. I think I will FOREVER be a historical drama girl.

I actually fell in love with Ye Hua! (male love interest). The love he has for Bai Qian is so passionate- and how cute is the kid???????? I actually balled my eyes out when she was brought back and could not remember one thing about their relationship. Just little things like Ye Hua remembering her mannerisms and such really got me going- HE REALLY KNEW HER. Can I get a love like this please?

I think it was an added treat for the directors/writers to delve into the story of the side characters- the love story between Bai Qian's niece and the Emperor Lord was admirable! Sometimes fate just isn't on our side and I have to add I fancied the Emperor Lord way more as a blonde (lol).

The makeup, costumes, sets were all done so beautifully. Could not fault it one bit.

I would 100% rewatch.
