The show has romantic and dramatic elements, good fight scenes and the right amount of suspense. The main leads despite having a large age gap, have good chemistry and leave you wanting more.

The story however, starts out with focus on the main couple and then fizzles out and all the focus moves onto the villain and he's not even a good villain, his backstory and motives are not compelling and its just sad that the director chose to focus the drama on him. The rest of the show is still worth a watch since the setting and characters, especially situ and Jin Jing Xue
are interesting.

The main couple could have been so much more, they have amazing potential and their actors did a great job but it seems their talent was wasted as scenes were cut for censorship and the director cares more about the dumb villain character/third ML. He might as well be the main character and not bother with the main couple since it seems the director wanted this all along. He's a very flawed character with dumb decision making skills.

Its such a shame because the drama is beautifully shot with a fantastic soundtrack and costumes, main leads are brilliant and compelling. The director made a huge mistake with his focus on this one.
