The English title of this drama; Love in Between was truly misleading, sound superficial and really didn't convey any meaning. This is not just a romance drama, though there are a few sweet couples... this is really about sacrifice... sacrifice for your loved ones (family, friend, lover), and sacrifice for the country...

It started quite light, and I thought it was just going to be another drama about a group of young people going for adventures together, but things get deeper and deeper... I like that each character was given ample time, though the character may look unimportant in the beginning... I also like intelligent antagonists... though of course, we hate their ruthless and selfish behavior.

The acting was quite good, I really underestimate some of the young actors/actresses in the beginning... There are quite a few veteran actors, too... And as someone else has commented, this drama show the best male disguise by a female actress, unlike most C-drama where you easily tell it was a female disguised as male.

The scenery was beautiful... I like the music, it is a reminiscence of the old days' wuxia scores... And I really like the lighting... many indoor scenes seems to really rely on candlelights.

The ending was a bit bizarre, a lot of things were not explained... and certain deaths seems unnecessary... But overall, it is still a drama worth watching...
