This is my first Ding Yuxi costume drama and not only we got one but seven different looks. This boy got it going for him in the looks department and became without a doubt your ML costume drama dreamboat. He got his boyish charms and he also can act. I also personally like the FL, very pretty and I think she can also act. 😎 I think I am in the minority here, but she made the character alive. 🔥

The premise of this show is quite unique, going through seven tribulations which means seven different lifetimes. I thought it could become tiring and repetitive but no, it was an absolute treat each and every life they go though. I get so invested each tribulation and root for them every single time, knowing that it will all end in death one way or the other. Whichever way, their story or stories are well intertwined with the main plot.

Chu Kong and Xiangyun are truly a match made in heaven, quite literally. Love their characters and their chemistry is oozing with sweetness. Although we all kinda predicted what Chu Kong will do at the end, with his soul protecting spell, it didn’t stop me from tearing up. It was absolutely heart wrenching.

The last episode wrapped things up really well.
And the ending is their seventh lifetime, and it was just beautifully done. I shed tears the moment Chu Kong turned his face up with tears in his eyes and Xiangyun asked him “Who are you this time?”. Oh my heart is full. ❤️
