one of the best asian dramas
I have finished this show a long time ago but I completely forgot writing a review about it.I am not the kind of person who would rewatch a show only if it was THAT good.. well, this show was indeed, that good. A few months after watching it for the first time I binged watched it again and I have a feeling I will re-watch it sometime soon. I started reading the books after finishing a show and I loved it! I would recommend reading Grandmaster Of Demonic Cultivation because it is really great and has a lot more romantic/cute scenes between Wei Wuxian and Lan Zhan.
Anyway, back to the show.
I usually skip through scenes when I get bored or just simply drop a drama if it has way too many filler episodes but with The Untamed I did not have to do either. I loved every single episode of it and I am pretty sure I would never get bored watching this show. I do not think that I will ever find another Chinese drama that I will love this much like I could talk about my love for WangXian for hours.
I do not want to spoil anything or talk more in-depth about this show, but I hope anyone who watches it will enjoy it just as much as I did.

ONE OF MY FAVES
I started watching this show after I saw it on a website for asian shows and it seemed interesting so I came right on here to check what the plot is and I immediately got interested! I haven't seen many cdramas so I didn't know what to expect but once I started watching it I was HOOKED! I loved the the leads so much, their acting was amazing and I loved their chemistry as well. There were some filler episodes that I did find quite boring, I believe the part when they were all in the mortal realm (by all I mean Yumo, Yandan and Yingyuan) was not always interesting so I did have to skip through some scenes but overall, I still enjoyed it and I am happy that I did not drop it and stayed until the end. I do not rewatch shows to be honest, but I would definitely re-watch this one at some point.I will definitely check out the male lead's other shows because I liked his acting the most and I am really curious about his other works!

a masterpiece
I do not usually leave reviews like this on any show that I watch, just a short comment about whether or not I enjoyed a certain show or not but I felt like I had to write one this time. I started watching Mouse for the first time in March this year but the length of the episodes kind of threw me off at first. The only show I watched that had 1 hour and 20-30 minute long episodes was Crash Landing On You and it took me a while to get used to that. Other than the length of the episodes, I also had a hard time getting interested in this show because I found the first two episodes quite uninteresting so I decided not to continue it because I had many other shows to start and finish so I just decided to drop it. Around September, I started seeing more and more content about Mouse and I was thinking about giving it a chance again even though I already knew who the actual killer was, which kind of ruined the whole experience for me but thankfully there were still some suprises. Anyway, I did start to watch it again and this time I did not drop it and managed to finish all 20 episodes, including one of the episodes from the special, which was very useful because it showed how Jung Ba Reum committed the m+rders.What did I really think about Mouse?
Well, I believe that it is one of the best thriller/crime kdramas I have ever seen. Other than the top-notch acting and interesting storyline I think that this show had no flaws. Suprisingly, I did not really hated anyone, other than the woman who was behind everything because the fact that she toyed with people and let innocent people die aóbut still got pardoned enranged me quite a bit but oh well. The ending made me really sad though, I tried not to have any sort of symphathy towards Ba Reum but I did feel quite sorry for him towards the end. He was a bad person indeed but after the brain surgery he did start to change although that does not really cancel out the fact that he m+rdered so many innocent people. I think him dying was quite fair for him. I am really glad that all the characters who went through so much got their happy ending.
I do not really have much else to say, but I'd recommend everyone to watch this show because it is really worth it. If you are a fan of crime dramas then this is definitely for you.
It has a lot of triggering things in it though, so I would not recommend it to people who can not really take stuff like that. (For example animal cruelty etc..)
