I watched every last one of the episodes and I watched the special edition as well, and I absolutely loved both. However, I am a bit disappointed in the fact that the writer left the chemistry between Wei WuXian and WangJi to the imagination. With a story line so great, at least a kiss between the two or a confession would have made it all the better, but then again I watched every episode and the special hoping that every scene coming up between Wei and WangJi would result in a kiss. I suppose that because of the laws in the Asian countries makes it so that a writer could only push the boundaries so much, when you have a story line that basically every body and their mama is in love with someone, their relationship should be blunt and not left to innuendos. On the upside though, I give the writer and director high praises for having made this drama because despite what I wanted to see more of, the story reflected love & loyalty and how those two things when combined could be very powerful and cause even the strictest person (WangJi) to open up his heart to a goofball like (Wei WuXIan) because he saw the inner Wei rather than what he seemed to be externally. Wang Yi Bo and Sean Xiao were superb as the main actors and their delivery of the content of the story kept me watching episode after episode despite telling myself that this would be the last episode for me that day. I also loved the relationship between Wen Ning and Wei because it reveals that even when someone has completely lost their way, that there is that one person in their life that will make them make a change for the better as evidenced by the ability of Wei to be the one person that Wen Ning would always recognized and force himself to resist doing bad things. Paul Yu is another amazing actor in my opinion because he undertook a character that was supposed to be somewhat dumbwhitted, but he made you love him because of his sincerity and being able to display that he is a lot more mentally sharp then people think he is. Overall, I LOVED this drama and would definitely watch a sequel of it!!!
