Mentally not okay anymore
I was warned that this would break me, and it did. I do get why people tend to give this a lower rate, due to the fact that it felt really rushed. The series is 8 episodes of just about 10 minutes and i watched it all in one sitting. If they gave me an 8 hour long series about this drama, i would still love it with all my heart.Im not really a big fan of sad endings, mostly because i want myself to maintain happy, but i think this story needed a sad ending. It was pretty obvious that one of them had to die. Min Hyun would not survive if Jun Ho decided to drink his blood. Although i think it would have been a beautiful ending if Jun Ho decided to drink Min Hyun's blood and Min Hyun survived, leading to the fact that they were now both human and could live together and have a happy ending, i think it would have been way to cliche. So thanks so much to the writer for me being able to still love a sad ending story.

Its 2am and im bawling my eyes out. I dont think im physically and mentally able to sleep after this
I went couldn't sleep, so i decided to watch a movie instead. This movie had been on my "to watch" list for a while, so i decided to watch this, thinking it would be a cute highschool romcom. Now it's 2 am and I'm bawling my eyes out. When I tell you it felt like my stomach sank.At first I was scared the main couple would be between Bo Ra and Hyun Jin. I really hoped that Bo Ra would go for Woon Ho. So I was so happy when I found out I was right. Their chemistry is just everything.
Although the miscommunication between Bo Ra and Yeon Doo was so darn frustrating, I think it really improved the story. Im just never a fan of miscommunication, which sounds pretty obvious, but i just get so frustrated when things go wrong because of it.
I also want to say that I truly love Bo Ra's character. I love how she is not the girly girly type and i really love how well athletic she is. I just basically love everything about her.
Now for the last point, as i said before, it's 2am as im writing this and as i just finished watching. So everyone is asleep. For someone who normally watches cute scene with giggling and feetkicking, overreacting is something i always do. So for me to not be able to react to the moment I found out Woon Ho died, let's say i also died with him. My cheeks were like waterfalls, my stomach was in a rollercoaster, but i wasn't able to make any sound.
I am not okay.

Enough bl for your needs!!
If you want to start this show because you are a bl fan (like me) but you are not so sure, due to the fact that the drama is censored. I get that. That was me too at first, but then i started diving in the reviews and the edits on tiktok, so i started to watch it.Yes its true, the drama is no longer a bl romance and Wei Wuxian are platonic best friends. However, they only removed the the confession and kissing and stuff. I like to keep in mind that although they never actually got together in the drama, they both felt "a connection" between eachother. The way Lan Wangji looks at Wei Wuxian is just perfect. Wang Yibo did such a fantastic job at his facial expressions. I found myself just constantly replaying the parts where Lan Wangji looked at Wei Wuxian. The moments his eyes softened, the moments his face wasn't as cold as always.
So although this drama is officially no bl, with just being a little bit delulu (which I know you are), this show has more than enough to feed your bl needs.
This was my first ever Chinese drama, so it was really difficult. Especially with the different names and characters. The first two episodes is about Wei Wuxian when he was reincarnated, but i didnt get a thing about these two episodes. It was so bad that when I was around episode 20, I started to rewatch those two episodes, and finally understood the context.
Also, during the whole show, I constantly kept google close. For example when the were talking about someone, but I forgot who it was and what his background was. I really recommend doing this, because it makes your understand the drama way better.
I would one hundred procent recommend this to every single person who is just a tiny bit interested in south-east asian content.
For me, I still love to see the actual romance scenes between Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji, so for me, the novels are next.

I came for the romance, stayed for the action and loved because of both of them
This series has been fantastic since the first minute. The first episode already contained so much information and action that i was instantly hooked.When you decide to watch this, prepare to cry, but most importantly, prepare to be flabbergasted. Every single moment i thought i knew who the bad guy was, who the murderer was, who the villain of the story was. I was just wrong, every single time. I think i have actually suspected 5 or 6 people who were all wrong. The makers of this drama did such a good job.
Also, I was so hooked to the story that i forgot it had bl romance. In the beginning, there is barely any romance, so everytime there was some kind of romance showing in a scene, i was extra happy :)
I came for the romance, stayed for the action and loved because of both of them.
I also want to say that MaxTul did such a fantastic job. You can definitely see that the've pleyed together for a long time and their chemistry was just chefs kiss.
All the actors were fantastic, the plottwist were so good and unexpected and the story was phenomenal.
Overal... EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH THIS

Pretty dissapointed
I do get why people tend to really like this show. However, it kinda dissapointed me. I dropped the drama at ep 10 because i was simply not hooked anymore.In the beginning i really liked the plot, but Sam had too less character development. The first 8 ep were nice, and it would have been enough for me. But there were four more, and i just got way to bored to continue watching.
I do get why people like this show, but it is just not somthing for me.
Dont get me wrong, its a nice watch. I just think the show would have been better if i was made shorter.
