Finding the truth amidst confusion and trickery
I read the reviews in detail before embarking on this drama. I had high-ish expectations since the reviews were pretty good.
After watching all 43/43 episodes, I have this to say.
What I liked:
- The character Di Zhu was the best girl. She had modern thoughts and behaved sensibly. She was never a crazy bitch and I really appreciated this point. She was a delightful modern-day lass in an olden era. She was a breath of fresh air and pretty damn cute. She had chemistry with the second Sun son - Sun Jun Hao. I liked the couple.
- Some parts of the drama were kind of funny. But, the parts aren’t outstanding. I can hardly remember any.
What I didn’t like:
- Bai Lu as Lin Shao Chun was smart and sassy but wasn’t the most likable. I didn’t really fancy her role here.
- There were many annoying asses in the show like Jia Feng Yuan who just kept wanting revenge and was frankly, a son of a bitch. Tao Yao was a complete “Yao Jing” and was utterly insufferable. I hated her and hated that she had so much screen time. When I thought she was gone, she came back again! Good lord, NO! She’s like a cockroach that doesn’t die no matter what you do!
- The eldest son of Sun house was spineless and very annoying.
- It was highly disappointing that there was NO sizzle between the “male lead” and “female lead”. Sun Yu Lou and Lin Shao Chun looked more like a big sister who tolerated an irksome bratty younger brother. They did not look like lovers. They did not look at husband and wife. There was zero chemistry between the two. It was painful to watch. The male actor CMI. I can think of so many other better male actors who fit the role and can do a much better job at having good chemistry with Bai Lu. Why wasn’t Xu Kai or Ryan Ding playing Sun Yu Lou? The show was kind of ruined because of the lack luster “male lead”. Terrible. I didn’t like him on my screen.
- The plot was confusing and some parts were like “Say What?!” . (Thankfully, the show did wrap things up quite well and everything came full circle. Episode 1 linked to episode 43. This was satisfactory.)
Overall, I think this show doesn’t deserve such high praise or ratings. I think a 7/10 is too high for it actually. Watchable but can be so much better.
