DISAPPOINTING, but OVERALL DECENT

SHORT PLOT:
The female lead character grows up in a remote area in a tribe and being an outcast, because her mother was an outsider. So she doesn't fully belong to them. Her mother died when the parents and her wanted to leave the tribe. Afterwards her father was forced bringing up the girl alone. The girl has a secret, which revealed itself, when she left without permission to fight the inferno. The revelation was, she wasn't (fully) human. Fighting the inferno, so it isn't getting worse, was part of the tribe's duty. She wanted to fulfill their duty. But after the revelation a journey with companions begins - with a lot of twist ant turns.

In my opinion, the STORY starts off well. What impressed me was that it was something NEW and ORIGINAL. The VISUAL EFFECTS were also impressive. Unfortunately in my opinion the male and female lead characters were miscast. In my opinion, neither of them can act very well (BAD ACTING of the leading Characters). There was no emotion, and NO CHEMISTRY between them. The only interesting role was that of the father which ACTED VERY WELL (Yuan Hong as Chi Xin), who kept the entire drama alive. There is WASTED POTENTIAL, and I was expecting more. The worldview was presented in too black-and-white terms, and at times the main characters came across as very hypocritical. I just skimmed through the last quarter, because I got more and more annoyed.

Still 7 points, because I watched it till the end and didn't skipped it, which makes the drama still decent.
