a brilliantly developed introduction which uses animation, pictures, music, words and a narrator to introduce you to the topic that is about to come: this changes at every single episode. Reconstructing a scenery to resemble Shanghai in the early 1900's, must have been really challenging because they did an outstanding job: you get the feeling of being there as if you could almost smell its perfumes. The costumes are impeccable in every single detail and so is the music. The acting is impeccable as usual (to be honest, I still have to find "bad" acting in Chinese TV series). The actors are so totally blended with their characters that is impossible to tell that they are acting: this is great for full immersion into a movie where the rest of the world disappears. The quality is incredibly high, the dialogues accurate for that era - though I was reading the English subs. Even the actors with marginal roles do an outstanding job with their performance. This is a true pearl which I strongly recommend the entire world to watch: so far one of the best in its genre.

To begin with, this drama is very overhyped. Firstly, a first half of story is really, really good. It´s exciting, thrilling, you are curious what happens next. However, a second half is so big disappointment. In the storyline they are few actions and scenes which really don´t make sense for me and story is based on... moment of surprise? So there is a lot of surprising things to keep a watcher in tension. However, these surprising situations are a fall of this drama. For example, 2x almost death of main villain but she is still alive. Why?
What´s more, female lead is incapable and irritating. She seems like innocent angel and knows nothing. On the other hand, acting is not so bad and you will love You Tou. Honestly, he was only reason why I completed this drama. Main negative character was quite amazing too (I really hate her). Her character was wonderfully written. Acting was amazing too. However, that doesn´t help anything.
In conclusion, I was really disappointed in this drama. In first half it seems it could be one of my favourite chinese dramas. However... You know, well... it didn´t happen.
