Never thought it'd end that way...

Of course I want a happy ending for all the characters especially one as important as Siuye. When it didn't I was heartbroken for Gao Bingzhu. I wasnt satisfied. However I thought it was one satifying drama. Of course my fav character would be Gao Bingzhu. His determination to avenge his friends' death and later, his quest to protect the people of Buliangjing, his trusworthiness, his dedication to find the truth and carrying out his duty is compelling. It's the very characteristics that make him interesting plus his background as someone from a place like Buliangjing - a place and people shunned from the rest of the so-called better society. It was to my great satisfaction when the story supports the notion that what matters is not where you're from. What matters is your actions. And Gao Bingzhu had shown the right actions each time he's faced with a challenge. It is compelling how he rose from being a criminal to a hero. Huang Xuan's acting is nothing short of brilliant. When Feng threatened Gao Bingzhu in episode 29 using the people of Buliangjing, the look in his eyes changed from respect to I-dare-you look. I simply lovee his acting in this drama. I am glad to have watched such great performance in such a great drama to mark the end of 2021.
