I decided to watch this drama only becos I wanteed to know what’s the hype abt. Nowadays I drop more shows then I complete becos I have no patience and get distracted so easily.
I saw some clips on my social media and I cringed when I saw how gay the scenes looked. I’ve never watched any dramas on BL and I don’t know this anime nor Xiao Zhan or Wang Yi Bo. The first few eps were bad becos I had totally no idea what was happening and this is a new genre to me. I seriously thought of dropping it. But I forced myself to sit thru. But no doubt the first interaction of LWJ n WWX with the sword fighting on the roof attracted me. I tot they felt really good together and it was beautiful. Still I hated the other characters. I thought they looked quite ugly haha (esp some of e guys with way too much makeup). So all that kept me going was watching the pair together, the way they looked at each other omg omg omg. Still the story was slow and boring even!. I think the story and momentum only picked up for me (around ep 20) after WWX went to the other side, where he came back playing the flute. OMG. Then from then on I was glued. Then the story got better and better and the last few eps were so good. The ending was good, finishing the story nicely. I hate shows where it starts off well only to end up with a rushed n crappy ending. But now that I’ve finished watching the show I felt so empty n wanting more. SO I REWATCHED IT.

Also I have to say the music is very very nice. Love the instrumental pieces. Love the ending theme by the two guys the first time I heard it. Which led me to know that Xiao Zhan actually is a singer (haha!) my new love now :p
