The Legend of Yan Shan and Bai Hua (2023)

It was entertaining!

considering the low rating reviews and harsh comments I thought it would be horrible but I've seen worse and this isn't even bad! That being said, I started it for Alen Fang, and I have mostly (not totally) skipped everything else.
I decided to give it a go by first 5 and then decide to drop or not, and as a result, by the 4th episode it took me by surprise that I find myself interested in finishing it, so I continued!

At this point I'm used to the 'ML/FL not being focus of story and instead the drama revolves around the stupidest of characters' in cdramas. you can call it filler episodes.
The story isn't something special, 2 sects with their own baffling rules being on each others throats for generations.. having a slight hope of ending the resentments depending new leaders and new generation to take over.

Initially It wasn't as funny as I expect from a comedy but later (after 10th episode) it became better... some bits were so funny.
their blunt comments and reactions were so hilarious!

I watched this for the romance and although it was secondary to the plot, I think it was good enough. Xing Mu and Qing Qiu had good chemistry. The chemistry was even better after ep 11!!
At some point I liked the Yu Lang & Ling Long couple as well!

There are some characters that I disliked such as Wei Qi and Yi Xin (she was an impulsive idiot). they just annoyed me!
if it wasn't for these 2, I would've given this an 8.
As for the grand master... I was speechless whenever he appeared... It's just... uh... I wasn't used to seeing him like that!
By the end of the drama, I realized I was only skipping these 3 characters scenes and I didn't miss out anything! The rest of the characters gradually grew on me.

the fight scenes were also decent. the costumes looked good as well.

overall it's an okay watch and it was entertaining.
so if you are in a dilemma and want something easy to watch, just give this a try.
