Love and Redemption (2020)

Boring drama

I saw this drama go viral because people were talking about it a lot on social media. And I saw a scene of the supporting ML and FL (where she was captured) so I liked it thinking it was the actual ML and FL so I decided to watch it.
Usually when I find a new drama to watch I download the first 3-10 episodes to watch to see if I’d continue but with this I was so convinced it’ll be worth the watch and downloaded all episodes at a goal! I regretted it! I had to force myself to watch the whole drama since Ive wasted my data to download the whole show.
I must say I was utterly disappointed with this drama. Storyline was wack, the actors didn’t impress me.
I honestly wouldn’t recommend this to anyone to watch unless I dislike the person.

Love & Redemption

I started watching this drama because of Cheng Yi, I first watched him on MLC.
As an early drama for him, his acting here is quite good, especially his facial expressions, eyes, and body movements.
The whole storyline is enough to make you very annoyed & angry because there are too many misunderstandings & stupid characters.
This drama really drains my feelings, but I like it.
We are swept away in the story of Xuanji & Sifeng who are looking for their true identity, because at first they were both innocent people until finally they could find a lot of love in the world, love for their family, partner and friends.

It's a bit unfortunate that ML's character here is made to suffer so much & actually I've never liked a male character in a drama as a reference for my ideal partner until I saw Yu Sifeng. I really like him T.T
He is very, very kind & sincere towards the people around him even though he has been disappointed many times.

The graphics are outstanding.
One thing that makes it hard for me to forget about this drama is the soundtrack, especially the one entitled 步崖 by 李琦.

Appropriately titled - LOVE & REDEMPTION

What a fitting title for this title "LOVE & REDEMPTION"!! If someone told you its good, it's even better. You will fall in love with the ML and ache for him. The sacrifices he will make in the name of Love.....OMG........countless women who watches this drama will ask "where is my Se Fung???". Cheng Yi played Se Fung so well. Incredibly handsome, strong & supportive at the same time.

You will get frustrated at the FL, but the writing is so good that the fustrations will be well worth it. When finally everything is revealed and she finally realizes how wrong shes been, as they say, Pay back is a bitch!

I recently fell in love with the actor Liu Xue Yi, who plays a villain in this drama. You must check him out in Love at Night and Qing Luo. He is incredibly handsome. But shows you what a great actor he is because I absolutely hated his guts in this drama.

The rest of the supporting cast is all wonderful as well. I loved ALL of them. kudos go to Zhang Yu Xi, who I think did an incredible job. I was very impressed with her acting and look forward to future work. Music & Ost is also very good, really fits the mood especially during the many intense fighting scenes.

For those like me who is looking for a HEA ending drama......YES, this is it! Its got romance, friendship, heart ache, villains, magic, monsters but most of all....Love & Redemption! Strap your seat belt on, its going to be a wild ride, ENJOY!

Wow, just wow, step aside american, Chinese will take it form here!

Romance, Action, Magic, 3 realsm, xianxia, wuxia, convincing story and chemistry what am i forgetting? Never mind, this story has it all!

At first sight, i was skeptical about warching this drama since i am not into ancient, but i am glad i tapped the ep1!

I got hooked at 1st ep. The couple was cute at the beginning but didnt cobtinue till end since the plot got serious, but unlike many dramas, i didnt mind. it got me hooked the more!

I love the setting and fight scenes, they are so enjoyable. and the magic spells were ....woah!

The ost certainly got me in the mood to cry, feel iconic and even sing along!

And i got to commend the story writer, it was a unique plot. Because at first, i thought it would be a remake of ashes of love, but no! Its unique! Infact i loved this drama more than ashes of love.

I cant praise this drama for long because i might be carried away...
Good character, chemistry, love story, xianxia....everything! I highly recommend this drama , give it a go and im certain you will love it as much as i did..

Si tu ne l'as pas encore vu, tu peux te lancer!

Je ne pense pas qu'il soit encore nécessaire de plébisciter Love and Redemption aujourd'hui. Néanmoins, il s'agit là du plus gros coup de cœur que j'ai pu avoir pour un drama à ce jour. Je me devais d'au moins rappeler à quel point il vaut le coup de lui donner sa chance.

Il va être difficile d'aborder l'ensemble des points sachant qu'il s'agit d'une histoire très dense et complexe. Si tu n'es pas initiée aux Wuxia/ Xianxia ou Historique avec de la politique, je déconseille de commencer par Love & Redemption. Je pense que pour pouvoir l'apprécier de son mieux, il faut s'être familiarisé aux codes des dramas historiques + fantasy chinois. La quantité de personnages, de lieux, les titres honorifiques etc.. est vraiment conséquente. C'est pourquoi je dirai que c'est son point faible, il n'est pas facile de rentrer dans l'histoire car au début tout est un peu confus.

MAIS! Par la suite, je garantis que le reste en vaut la peine.

Si Feng est mon personnage préféré tout drama confondu. Son histoire d'amour, l'ensemble des actions qu'il mène, son passé, tout est extrêmement bien écrit. Le personnage féminin est aussi très intéressant et j'ai trouvé qu'elle se distinguait des autres personnages qu'on peut voir dans les dramas chinois qui sont parfois un peu nunuche, niais. Elle a su se détacher de ces stéréotypes tout en gardant les codes du genre. Les personnages secondaires, les méchants sont tous excellents de par le jeu d'acteur ou du scénario.

Il y a de nombreux rebondissements tout au long de la série, des moments plein d'émotions, du suspense... C'est une série complète qui n'a pas encore trouver son égal. Je ne peux que vivement conseiller de tenter au moins une fois en gardant à l'espirt que le début est un peu compliqué à prendre en main mais une fois familiarisé, ce n'est que du plaisir :)

BEAUTIFUL~!! Chaotic yet Fascinatingly Heartwarming and satisfying. <3

I don't know where to start. This drama's probably the longest for me to finish but also one of fhe most worth while of all.

Lemme start it by giving my earnest feedback; It all started as a very mysterious and adorable that gradually ended with so much schemes and fighting (Which I love as well). The thing here is that as time passes by you'll start to hate the supposedly 'Good People' due to their over judgement and hypocrisy and that very reason made me felt that bitter hate and distate. Thankfully this drama do provide justice and 'redemption' so almost all of those issue dissipated eventually when it neared its finale.

Secondly, I love how this drama served us different variety of feelings and emotions. It truly entails and showcases different ways and path of life and thought us/me how to look on the brighter side although it may look ridiculous. I feel like this production delivered in every aspect it possibly touched and has successfully handled them accordingly.

Of course, 'NO' drama is perfect and all of them mostly has flaws and broken holes but I feel like this story deserves to be place on a different level; separating it from the rest of it's origin. It is that impactful to me and it has successfully secured a great place in my heart.

Story - 10, The story is a continuous roller coaster of events that can make you feel differently each time but it surely is with a purpose. A well written drama with great plotd and overly irritating Minor 'Supposedly' Protagonist and Main Antagonists. It also overflows with love and tenderness coming from various individuals and their relationship towards the people around them. So much lesson to learn and way of life to appreciate and adapt to.

Acting/Cast - 10, SPECTACULAR!! i love all of the artists in this production. All of them truly delivered and expressed the greatest extent of emotions and actions their characters should present and I can't ask for more. I'm truly moved and triggered. Hahaha~ Special mention to Liu XueYi, as this is the first drama of him that made me hate him to core. Also wanna shower some love and appreciation towards the main leads and the minor leads. They're all splendid.

Music - 10, No discussions needed. Music is Perfect from the first Track till the end. Each and every Music touched and moved me to their own rhythm and melody. I enjoyed it the most among all of the OSTs of over 60+ dramas I watched this year.

Rewatch Value - 10, Solid 10. Highly RECOMMEND! Everything about this drama is spectacular and lovely in it's own way and deserved nothing but recognition, love and support. I would watch it a gazzilion times if needed.

Overall - 10, Any scores lower than 10 is absurd. This drama may not be perfect but there's no such thing as perfect drama and this one is like a cut from a very expensive and royal piece of clothing. Must treasure and protect.

IF you find my review helpful please let me know.

Tantas emoções que nn sei descrever

Todos os spoilers vão estar dentro de parênteses!


-Assistir esse drama foi um mix de emoções no começo ao fim, chorei horrores e me diverti muito. No final acho que oq faz algo ser considerado bom ou não é o jeito como ele vai ficar gravado na sua memória.

Eu falei mal de muitas coisas nas resenhas de episódios, mas foram coisas que eram super necessárias para toda a construção da história como um todo. Em parte, eu critiquei as ações dos personagens e não a história em si, que eu apoio muito a construção e o jeito como foi transmitida.

Então Love And Redemption conquistou todo o meu coração, cada pequena parte dele foi preenchida pela linda história de amor da Xuan Xi e do Si Feng. As histórias dos outros personagens, me emocionaram muito também. Houve histórias que não eram somente sobre amor romântico e sim o amor entre família e amigos. Isso realmente mexeu com o meu pobre coração.



-Um ponto superimportante que eu gostaria de destacar são as osts que me emocionaram desde a primeira vez que meu ouvido entrou em contato com elas. Além de serem super essenciais para dar dinâmica a todas as cenas, as letras são totalmente compatíveis com a história do drama. Você pode fazer uma análise de Love And Redemption apenas escutando essas belas ost que me emocionam muito e realmente condizem com cada parte dessa história. Assim que eu ouvia o começo da música já sabia que ia sofrer.

A abertura e o encerramento também não tem defeitos e eu poderia ficar horas falando sobre como tudo isso foi essencial para o drama e acrescentam tanta riqueza a obra total. As letras se encaixam com todos os acontecimentos e elas sempre tocavam na hora exata, quando precisamos nós lembrar daqueles ensinamentos.



-Figurinos e cenários são coisas que eu não preciso me aprofundar muito, mas quero deixar aqui registrado todo o meu amor por esse tipo de trabalho. Eu realmente me sinto parte daquele universo.



-A lição que eles quiseram passar, foi totalmente visível e totalmente compreensiva. “O lado bom, nem sempre é o lado do céu” “Escolha o lado do bem, não o lado céu”. Como eu disse anteriormente as ost se encaixam tão bem que uma delas tem exatamente essa frase. Eu critiquei muito todas que iam contra os demônios por hipocrisia e posso afirmar que até chorei de raiva algumas vezes. Mas tudo isso valeu a pena e foi superimportante para a mensagem final que eles queriam passar.



-Si Feng sofreu tanto por ter tanto amor que me fazia desabar emocionalmente. Eu sempre pensava “Como alguém pode amar outro alguém tão intensamente que pode ser capaz de desistir da sua vida tantas vezes e sofrer durante tantos anos só para ter um minuto ao lado de quem ama? ” Coisas assim ficaram na minha cabeça por bastante tempo e eu não consegui pensar em uma única resposta. Mas eu parei para pensar e percebi que não preciso de uma resposta para o amor dos dois. O drama inteiro já responde a minha pergunta, tudo entre eles foi tão intenso que me deixa emocionada só de pensar. (9 vidas, ele desistiu de novas vidas por ela. Ele desistiu da sua posição no céu sem a permissão de voltar por 10000 anos só para dar a ela uma nova chance. Ele desceu ao mundo mortal para acompanhar ela e mesmo assim se sacrificou em todas as vidas. É um amor simplesmente inexplicável, um amor que não importa quanto tempo passe, nunca vai acabar e nem tem como explicar.)



O final pra mim foi super satisfatório e me deixou com o coração quentinho. Achei que fosse querer mais um pouco da história dos dois, mas ao chegar ao último episódio eu me senti bem. Me senti super bem, como se um ciclo tivesse encerrado o que na verdade realmente aconteceu.
Super recomendo Love And Redemption para quem ama um bom wuxia/xianxia. Sem palavras para descrever o tanto que me emocionei assistido esse drama.

unconditional true love , excellent acting ,masterpiece art work.

you are going to regret if you miss this drama . i have seen 100+dramas but never seen such a wonderful one .story revolves around yu si feng first leader of lizae palace and chu xuan ji daughter of sect leader chu. si feng and his fellows are restricted to remove the given mask or make new friends and never plan of marring. where as xuan ji is a loveable youngster without 6senses .there meeting and unusual bonding between the both leads to tremendous new series of problems . later they realize that their relationship and fate is not something new but a tragedy that has been tangled up for a thousand of years .unexpected plot twist and mind-blowing identities makes the series more enjoyable are interesting .more over by the end you will surely fall for the ML and its actor cheng yi. the love that si feng shows for xuan ji and trutha about false reality ,freinds and relationships make the show wonderful.

Terseok-seok

It looks like Cheng Yi picked his project based on how much his character has to suffer.
Cheng Yi, stop it, please. Are you a masochist?🤨😒

The plot wasn't just dragging; it had reached a point where it felt like I was watching 'Journey to the West' (the journey of Bhiksu Tong and Sun Wukong searching for the sacred scriptures).
I never reached the episode where they finally obtain the scriptures because they do too much of this and that on the way, which makes me tired.

Duh, I can't believe people actually enjoy this kind of story with so much miscommunication.

I dropped it at episode 26
I couldn't take it anymore.

The C-drama has an amazing storyline and never gets boring!

I am only up to episode 13 but it is so good! Already from the start, the chemistry between the lead characters is amazing and sweet ❤️ This Chinese drama is very different and new to me. It has an amazing storyline and it never gets boring. So I really recommend others to watch this drama! ☺️👍
This drama’s lead actors is the first time I’ve seen them. The ML has a certain aura about him which makes his character different from many others. The FL is so cute yet clueless about feelings. Haha. I have seen many Insta videos about the drama and I just decided on a whim to watch and I don’t regret watching! 💗

Only just begun

I can't say that a series has started and continues to satisfy it's viewers more than this one has! I'm finding that from the acting, cast chemistry to the sets, nothing but excellent production and effort by all. I'm falling in love with all the couples and all the characters are solid with depth! There's tons of cute moments that just have you smiling and I'm thoroughly loving this series especially with Xuan Ji and Si Feng as the MLs. The secondary couples/characters also draw their own share of love from me. <3 It reminds a little of Ashes of Love but Xuan Ji's actress portrays her well, with well thought out expressions that feel/flows so naturally - you don't feel any disconnect between actress & character when you watch her perform. We get great progression and so far, I'm only on episode 16, nothing seems too rushed. Though for Si Feng, there's a slight shift in the span of 2 episodes earlier on that quickly does away with his language difficulty. It was cute & could have stayed around a little longer.

Now back to the series! I hope you enjoy even more than me :)
