In all the chinese detective/suspense series this is the best so far. The pacing, the storyline, the script are really good and cohesive which i sometimes find lacking in Chinese dramas. The actors and actresses are all good too and on their A game. Hope there are more dramas like this and not ones where the actors all act cool but no substance. So if you are looking for a detective series with more substance with tight pacing and great character development this is it. Its not only with eye candy actors but actors who know what they are doing. I also love the actress whos the empress dowager. She really wasnt overpowered by anyone.
