Delightful and Captivating

Once in a while, a fresh and unknown cast captures one's attention because of an excellent plot and superb acting.

Found the storyline refreshing (a young, female coroner) and ended up binge watching and finished the 36 episodes over 2 days.

Plot intriguing and appropriately paced. Like the illustrations as FL (played by Su Xiao Tong) looked into the cause of death in each case.

Love the character of Prince An (played by Wang Zi Qi) - impressed by the character's logic and ability in solving the cases.

Fabulous chemistry between ML and FL. - no overdose of kissing scenes.

Good performance by supporting cast, especially the outstanding acting by Mu Huai Hu as the villian Grand Eunuch.

Gladly recommend to watch this drama

Age Incompatibility

Of late, too many Chinese dramas with older FLs partnering younger MLs.

The Storyline at least supports this type of a incompatible relationship. Interesting reasons cited by FL as to why she chose a school junior over a successful actor.

What I like :
- the music (yao gun)
- the fashion or wardrobe for FL (Xu Lu)
- The friendship between the FL and her best friend at university

What I "struggle"
- unrealistic portrayal of FL as "innocent" and shyness in her relationship with ML
- FL is at least 5 years older, had been in the industry and even had an ex-boyfriend who cheated on her. Can't be that innocent
- Lin Yi - his exceptional large nose. Fortunately compensated by his height and fair looks.
