Deep and patriotic

The best part of this drama for me is the suspenseful missions that they undertake. This alone I can give 10/10 because they actually get me off my seat and are perfectly executed.

43 episodes is just about right. Thank god this is not another 70-episode epic which most of the times drag on unnecessarily.

Vert aptly released in the year of the CPC's 100th anniversary. It captures the sacrifices made to bring China to victory. Whenever someone on the show gets sacrificed, you can see the pain and despair in Zhu Yi Long's eyes.

In terms of acting, the veteran actors did it for me. Old Gu, Old Chen, Old Ji were my favourites. Surprisingly I didn't feel the chemistry between the FL and ML. It's not a romance drama, I understand. But I still didn't get any feels from the main couple. Instead, the camaraderie between the veterans and the ML were the star chemistries in this show.

Why I can't give it a 10/10? It's typically not my favourite genre due to the heavy and depressed undertones. Also the ML-FL chemistry falling flat for me. Everything else is fine and I'd recommend it.
