The Untamed, caught my attention after I saw that he had passed the evaluation of Signal and My Mister and became the top 1 of the CDM. Even though I wasn't the type of person to see something just for that reason, I was curious to know why this work was being so acclaimed and so well ranked as to overcome excellent doramas, well, most people cited the BL couple, I was afraid to see the work just for that reason, hardly anyone cited a solid reason to see the drama, but regardless I went to check for myself that the reason for the exaltation was not just because of the BL couple.

The idea the ​​drama is excellent, although it is common in Chinese works, if in Japan shounens are common, in China cultivation works are even more common, particularly I am not a fan of Chinese works and this was my first series, anime I had already seen some, but very few related to cultivation, so even though it was something "cliché" for me, it was relatively new, so I found the idea of ​​the drama excellent, remember, the idea, the execution not so much and this is what weighs in my assessment of it. The drama is extremely detailed, very much, which makes it very tiring several times.

We can say that the drama has two Sagas throughout its 50 episodes, which is the Saga of the past, as the name itself says and the arc of the present, 16 years after the death / disappearance of the protagonist, where he reincarnates, but between these 2 sagas have several small arches, we have the beginning that begins with the protagonist reincarnating and soon after showing his past with the characters, their interactions and bonds, I understand that the first arc that takes place in Recanto da Nuvens, is necessary for presentation of the characters, but it is too long and many things there are unnecessary, if the drama were more compressed and more summarized at certain times, it would really be a 10 with praise, but it takes too long to arrest the viewer who does not know the work. The Untamed, has a fantastic world, but it doesn’t masterfully work with him, something that disappointed me was the quotes to the Buried Mountain, where no man would be able to live and Wei lives there for 3 months and is just played in the work like any other Anyway, there are other points, such as the delay of sects turning against the Wen sect, among other things, but I will not go on too long here.

Most characters only make numbers, we do not know their beliefs or philosophies of life, there are few that the viewer will identify and that will be explored in the work, as is the case with Wei himself, which even I do not like his side playful, I don't deny being an excellent character, but the one who really stole my heart was the diva of Wen Qung, a strong character, who acted in the right way and her relationship with her brother was very beautiful to see, always putting him above her and for Sometimes I wanted him with Wei, when they were in the Buried Mountain, I was very sad for the end of it and there was no tribute, another character that I cannot forget to exalt despite his little screen time and his first appearance not being of the best and the mother Jiang Cheng, where when the Lotus Pier was attacked she did not surrender and fought for her sect despite its tragic end and of course no one else, none other than Lan WangJi, however what What most caught my attention in this character, was the fact that he was the opposite of Wei, while one was playful, the other was serious, while one was dressed in black, the other was dressed in white, so this contrast and analogy between both characters was very good.

As well as I mentioned above my sadness for the execution of the series, for the slowness and the lack of intelligence of the characters in being quick in the decisions, even more so for a fan of the "Art of War" to have seen some moments and situations in the battles it was hard for my eyes, just wanted to highlight this one more time.

The villains of the series, the first of them, would almost be my style of villain, and the classic villain who does his mischief by power and destruction, but lacked in the leader of the sect Wen, who is more ahead of the battles and has been more explored, in the The end was just a shallow villain with an even more pathetic death. Already the second villain and the type who hides behind other people and only lives smiling at everyone, who incriminates another person for his actions, who is good at speech and knows how to corner you only in the psychological and the type of villain that even if you are caught by an oversight will deny until death, Jin GuangYao, was a better worked and more detailed motivated villain, the son of a prostitute, was hated by his father, who mistreated him and was not respected by other cultivators, so that it was the trigger for his monstrosities and at the same time a motivation for his steps up the series, reaching the highest rank of a cultivator.

Anyway, despite some complaints, the series is good in general, my biggest compliments go to its setting, scenarios and photography, which were very rich in details and incredibly beautiful, it was the best drama I saw in that aspect. The costumes of the characters too it was spectacular and the osts were excellent, always matching the rhythm of the drama, when it was a lively moment, a lively song, a more tense moment, a more tense song, everything fit perfectly and the harmony was sublime.


*Tradução*

The Untamed, me chamou atenção depois que eu vi que ele tinha ultrapassado a avaliação de Signal e My Mister e se tornado o top 1 do MDL. Mesmo não sendo o tipo de pessoa que ver algo apenas por esse motivo, eu tive curiosidade em saber o porquê essa obra estava sendo tão aclamada e tão bem ranqueada a ponto de superar excelentes dramas, pois bem, a maioria das pessoas citavam o casal BL do drama, eu tive receio em ver a obra apenas por esse motivo, dificilmente alguém citava um motivo sólido pra vê o drama, mas independente disso eu fui conferir por mim que o motivo da exaltação não era apenas por causa do casal BL.

A idéia do drama é excelente, apesar disso ser comum em obra chinesas, se no Japão os shounens são comuns, na China obras de cultivação, são mais comuns ainda, particularmente não sou um fã de obras chinesas e essa foi minha primeira série, anime eu já tinha visto alguns, porém bem poucos relacionados a cultivos, então mesmo sendo algo "clichê" pra mim era relativamente novo, por isso q eu achei a ideia do drama excelente, lembre-se, a idéia, já a execução nem tanto e é isso que pesa na minha avaliação sobre o mesmo. O drama é extremamente detalhado, muito mesmo, o que deixar muito cansativo por várias vezes.

Podemos dizer que o drama tem duas Sagas ao longo dos seus 50 episódios, que e a Saga do passado, como o próprio nome já diz e o arco do presente, 16 anos depois da morte/desaparecimento do protagonista, onde ele reencarna, mas entre essas 2 sagas tem várias pequenos arcos, temos o início que começa com o protagonista reencarnando e logo depois mostrando o passado dele com os personagens, suas interações e vínculos, eu entendo que o primeiro arco que se passa no Recanto da Nuvens, e necessário pra apresentação dos personagens, mas ele é muito longo e muitas coisa ali são desnecessárias, se o drama fosse mais compactado e mais resumindo em determinados momentos, seria realmente um 10 com louvor, mas ele demorar demais a prender o telespectador que não conhece a obra. The Untamed, tem um mundo fantástico, porém não trabalha com maestria ele, algo que me decepcionou foi as citações para com a Montanha Sepultada, onde nenhum homem conseguiria viver e o Wei vive lá por 3 meses e simplesmente só é jogado na obra como qualquer coisa, enfim...tem outros pontos, como a demorar das seitas se voltarem contra a seita Wen, entre outras coisas, mas não vou me alongar muito aqui não.

Os personagens em sua maioria só fazem números, não sabemos suas convicções ou filosofias de vida, são poucos os que o telespectador vai se indentificar e que serão explorados na obra, como e o caso do próprio Wei, que mesmo que eu não gostando do seu lado brincalhão, não nego que é um excelente personagem, mas quem realmente roubou meu coração foi a diva da Wen Qung, uma personagem forte, que agia da forma correta e sua relação com seu irmão foi muito bonita de vê, sempre o colocando acima dela e por vezes eu queria ele com o Wei, quando eles estavam na Montanha Sepultada, fiquei muito triste pelo final dela e não teve nenhuma homenagem, outra personagem que não posso esquecer de exaltar apesar do seu pouco tempo de tela e da sua primeira aparição não ter sido das melhores e a mãe Jiang Cheng, onde quando a Píer de Lótus foi atacada ela não se rendeu e lutou pelo sua seita mesmo com seu fim trágico. E claro ninguém mais, ninguém mesmo que o Lan WangJi, porém o mais me chamou a atenção nesse personagem, era o fato dele ser o oposto do Wei, enquanto um era brincalhão, o outra era sério, enquanto um se vestia de preto e outro se vestia de branco, então esse contraste e analogia entre ambos personagens foi muito bom.

Bem como já citei mais acima minha tristeza pela execução da série, pela lentidão e pela falta de inteligência dos personagens em serem rápidos nas decisões, ainda mais para um fã da "Arte da Guerra" ter visto alguns momentos e situações nas batalhas foi duro para os meus olhos, só queria destacar isso mais uma vez.

Os vilões da série, o primeiro deles, quase seria meu estilo de vilão, e o clássico vilão que faz suas maldades por poder e destruição, porém faltou no líder da seita Wen, esta mais a frente das batalhas e ter sido mais explorado, no fim não passou de um vilão raso com uma morte mais patética ainda. Já o segundo vilão e o tipo que se esconde atrás de outras pessoas e só vive sorrindo para todos, que incriminar outra pessoa pelos seus atos, que é bom de lábia e sabe te encurralar só no psicológico e o tipo de vilão que mesmo se for pego por um descuido vai negar até a morte, Jin GuangYao, foi um vilão mais bem trabalhado e com uma motivação mais detalhada, filho de uma prostituta, era odiado pelo seu pai, que o maltratava e não era respeitado pelos demais cultivadores, então isso foi o gatilho pra suas monstruosidades e ao mesmo tempo uma motivação para sua subida de degraus na série, chegando ao posto mais alto de um cultivador.

Enfim, apesar de algumas reclamações, a série é boa no geral, meus maiores elogios vão pra sua ambientação, cenários e fotografia, que eram riquíssimos em detalhes e incrivelmente belos, foi o melhor drama que eu vi nesse aspecto, o figurino dos personagens também foi espetacular e as osts, excelentes, sempre combinando com o ritmo do drama, quando era um momento animado, uma música animada, um momento mais tenso, uma música mais tensa, tudo se encaixava perfeitamente e a harmonia era sublime.

I was curious about why this drama has such a high rating and decided to watch it completely. For someone who love xianxia/wuxia themed series and has been watching hundreds of dramas, I will say this drama is okay to watch. It's pretty enjoyable at certain points but tbh it doesn't live up to the super high rating. I will say if you are a big fan of BL then you will definitely want to check it out and most probably will love it. But personally, I like TMOPB and nirvana in fire much more than this. I think the high rating come from the big original BL novel loyal fans and the fans of the pop idol boys turn main lead. I do really like the theme of complexity in evil and good in the series and the actors are pretty dazzling. The annoying part was just some really slow-paced fillers, bad CGI n cinematography and some plot holes. I did think of reading the novel, since this series does spark my interest a little into BL hahaha. But as far as wuxia novel goes, I already have a top fave (I Shall Seal The Heaven), so I think it will be hard to read another wuxia novel that has a storyline that can come up to par with it.

BEAUTIFULLY DONE.

This is my first BL drama and it is a life changer. I can never judge a drama by what I assumed I won’t like anymore. Who knew such a beautiful love story existed between two males under such strict censorship by the Chinese government? It is 2022.. 3 years after the drama release and this is still an amazing drama. I’m sad I discovered this so late but better late than never! That being said, I am now obsessed with wuxia BL dramas.

The chemistry between both leads are sensational. You feel the unspoken love just by how they look at one another and the simple touches. All of their scenes together are absolutely breathtaking. The story itself isn’t anything too special but trust me.. watching these two leads will get you hooked. The tenderness in their gazes, the soft words, the simple yet special touches and overall chemistry between both beautiful leads took my breath away. Wang Yi Bo and Zhao Xian were made for the roles of Lan Zhan and Wei Ying. I’ve never seen such handsome males on the screen.

Also.. don’t watch the last 5 minutes of the ending here. Search the special edition online for the actual ending. Due to the censorship, they had to move the order of the scenes around to not show a “happy” ending of the leads being together. The special edition is the actual ending with the satisfying end.

This show is very confusing but stick with it

I’d heard about the Untamed and decided to give it a try, not knowing anything about it. The first episode was very confusing to me, and I had to do a bunch of googling to even get a grasp. If anyone goes into this show as their first Chinese drama, they may also find the names confusing- there are many characters introduced very quickly. It became better as I slowly understood more, but I was still a bit confused and waiting for the show to become more exciting. I was at the point of, “if it doesn’t get better soon, I’ll drop the show”. However, I’m so glad I stuck with it- things took a turn at a certain episode and suddenly the show was much more emotional and intense. It became so good that it didn’t matter that I was confused at the beginning- and once you watch the whole show, watching the beginning again makes a lot more sense and you can see all the hints that were woven in.

(More spoilery from here)

The Untamed really wonderfully dealt with a lot of themes and issues, and each character was complex and layered. Wei Wuxian’s descent into madness was for me, unexpected (despite seeing how he was “evil” at the beginning, because I was so confused that I forgot about that) but fascinating and satisfying. The Wen clan initially seems like the main antagonist, but then it turns out that our protagonist is the villain, at least in the eyes of society. The Untamed showed so much about the struggles between what is right or wrong individually, vs within relationships, vs in society, or when someone has no choices... making bad choices for good reasons, or vice versa...

The character development is amazing and each character was complex enough to be the protagonist of their own show, in my opinion. Even most of the villains were so dimensional that I couldn’t dislike them. I can see why people call this show a masterpiece, and despite my initial confusion, this turned out to be one of the best shows I’ve ever watched.

No one can unsee The Untamed nor can they ever forget it.

Nowadays, we are blessed with great bromance/BL dramas and movies from many places around the world. But only a handful of them can leave an amazing impression on us. One that you always end up coming back for more.
The Untamed is the best example for me.

First of all, they had to change many things of the original story because of the censorship in China. In the novel, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji are obviously lovers, but in the series, they are "bosom friends". Nonetheless, the story was still amazing despite the changes. he scenery is breathtaking, and each clan's design and concept is brilliantly thought out. Despite being labelled as a "xianxia" drama, The Untamed incorporates many elements of traditional wuxia dramas while blending them with a new style. The cinematography and transition from one scene to the next were both excellent. The plot is far from boring, and the story flows extremely well. Once I started watching, I couldn't stop. But I'm going to say that the highlight of the series, was definitely the chemistry between Xiao Zhan (Wei Wuxian ) and Wang Yibo (Lan Wangji ). Even thought they were portrayed as "bosom friends", they obviously left us with the biggest impression that the both of them loved each other dearly and that they were in fact soulmates. No matter what people say, this was far from a bromance drama. I'm also going to praise the other actors because all of them were incredible in their roles. I'm going to be completely honest with you, the CGI's were not that spectacular and at times they were simply alright, but I couldn't care less at this point because I got hooked on the complexity of the story and what each character brings. I will just say that overall, this drama is a real masterpiece and that I will probably end up watching it a hundred times. Also the Ost is so catchy and you might end up downloading it or listen to it multiple times. (The two leads actually sing that song together)

PS. I wish I was better with words or able to give better reviews, but I just want to say that this drama was and will always be one of the best Chinese BL drama for me and hopefully my review left you wanting to watch this amazing drama.

Amazing

I fell jn love with both actor after watching this drama.
The acting, storyline and the music everything was perfect!!
Everyone in this drama had a good connection with each other, they didn't do extra (too much emotions or exagerated expressions).
Also, the storyline, was on point, since episode 1, i couldn't stop myself from watching, always having something that make you want to continue watching. Àlso, sometimes I got scared because of those "puppets" makeup loll.
I watched it twice very worth watching.

Definitely the TOP 1 on my list.

At first, I was quite reluctant to watch The Untamed because its genre (traditional + bromance/BL) is not the one I typically prefer to watch and I was even so confused on the first half of episode 1! I find traditional dramas to be cringey especially with all those flying around but not this one, it comes naturally and it's justified with the setting of the drama.

Now, I'm having withdrawal syndrome & sepanx. I can hardly move on from it that I even read the novel & manhua. After reading them, I probably would have expected more from the drama if I came across of those first. So I recommend to watch the drama first so you have no expectations what so ever then read the novel because THE NOVEL IS SO EXTRA. It's also quite a revelation to myself that I might like BL stories because of The Untamed. This may not be a popular choice and I may want more but I like the creativity & subtleness of how they work around the censorship in China. Anyway, we have the novel & manhua to supplement that need for more.

The Untamed are also full of eye candies! Wen Ning is so adorable especially when he was trying to sell the turnips, I love him there! Zewu Jun was like a different person from his role in Mr. Honesty, as well as Shi Jie (in Well Dominated Love) that I almost did not recognize her! Even the main villains are good looking too that you can't hate them! Hello Xue Yang! Hope to see you in another drama soon. Jin Guang Yao/Meng Yao is also cute & funny out of character. The only people I hate there would be those hypocripte leaders of small sects/clans and The Jin clans' Guang Shan & that unreasonably arrogant Jin cousin.

I particularly love Xiao Zhan's portrayal of Wei Wu Xian, his smiles in different emotions and how his character progressed and matured from being smart & charming yet annoying when he was younger to (as Jiang Cheng puts it) being "self-less" causing his fall from grace and ultimately coming into terms with everything that happened upon his return whilst he is still the smart & charming yet annoying one that everyone once knew and that probably what attracts the junior disciples of the different sects, without them realizing his real identity (believing that he is Mo Xuan Yu all along), to him. I find his interactions to them adorable as well as hilarious. He really charmed them especially Jin Ling, which I kinda feel that this is not the WWX Jin Ling had expected or imagined.

Wang Yibo, another huge eye candy! The more you look at him the more attractive he gets. His portrayal of cold & boring Lan Wang Ji is on point though I want LWJ to have more personal interactions with WWX. Plus I find it very amusing that only WWX is the only person who can call LWJ "Lan Zhan", never heard it from his uncle or his brother and everyone else is just intimidated.

The Untamed is worth watching and rewatching. I'll be hard to find another drama on par with this one.

Worth the hype, but not a masterpiece

Every once in a while you encounter a show that is riddled with issues, but has a core that is so strong that it keeps the whole thing afloat. In the case of The Untamed that core is of course the two leads, Wei Ying (Sean Xiao) and Lan Wan Ji (Wang Yi Bo). These two characters are the heart and soul of the drama and the reason for its incredible popularity. They are compelling as these opposites attract, intensely moral people who endure tragedy and grief together, and their connection is immediately palpable on screen. Both actors do a great job of showing the journey these characters go on over the course of the show, and the layers they inhabit. They nail the comic and tragic moments beautifully.

The rest of the cast varies dramatically in acting ability. Paul Yu is solid as Wei Ying's friend and bodyguard Wen Ying, while Marius Wang struggles to give three dimensionality and depth to Jiang Chen, Wei Ying's adopted brother and a pivotal character in the show. This doesn't necessarily detract hugely from the drama as a whole, but it does mean that there are scenes in the drama that don't really resonate with me, are boring, or where the emotional intensity and complexity just doesn't come across they way it should.

Another issue with the show is its plot. The Untamed basically follows the life and growth of Wei Ying from young disciple to the infamous Yiling Patriarch, and although that works from a character standpoint (I care about Wei Ying and want to follow his journey) it can make the plot feel all over the place. There is no single, solid villain in the show, which I think weakens the second half substantially. There are some themes introduced about the danger of a herd mentality in regards to the cultivators turning on Wei Ying, but it isn't properly developed as it should have been. I understand that probably a lot of this is to do with existing issues in the source material, but it could have been reworked in the adaptation. Additionally, the plot is not chronological, which I think actual takes away from the impact of Wei Ying's downfall and makes the show feel even more disjointed.

My final big issues with the show are problems that I have with a lot of Chinese fantasy dramas: the magic and creatures look cheap, the villains are laughably uninteresting and not even slightly intimidating, and the action is dull and void of impact. I understand that the budget of the Untamed was low, so I can excuse the poor CGI, but when it comes to compelling villains and action sequences they have no excuses. Weak writing means they lean too heavily on effects and costume design to try demonstrate that THIS guy is EVIL, when really they should just write a good character. When was the last time I was scared or invested in a villain in a Chinese fantasy series? I feel like they depend too heavily on their villains being archetypes of evil (he's a demon! Evil spirit!) rather than actually having any kind of depth. As for the action, I'm not asking for it to be bloody and visceral. I understand and appreciate an action style that is more elegant than that, and I actually like that their magic means they do less stabbing and decapitating, etc. BUT. The problem is that the action as a whole has no weight or impact. There are no stakes established by the writing/directing, there is no intentionality from the camera, and no believability from the actors. As a result, I can't take the big battles or anything else seriously at all. I don't feel invested in any of it whatsoever. During big tragic scenes, or supposedly stressful and intense battle sequences I feel this deep boredom instead.

This was adapted from a web novel in which the relationship between Wei Ying and Lan Wan Ji is explicitly romantic, but in the show this was censored. There are no kiss scenes, no overt romantic declarations (technically) and they are never officially considered by the show as being more than 'very good friends'. This was off-putting to me before I actually watched the show because I thought it wouldn't be enjoyable. I was wrong. Although the censorship itself is gross for homophobia reasons, I actually think the writers and director did a great job of making it clear that this IS a love story. The intensity of Wei Ying and Lan Wan Ji's relationship is still there, as well as their position in each other's lives. They are each other's most important person, and other characters see them as such. They protect and defend each other, fight for each other, care for each other when they're sick or wounded, and are all around soulmates. I think the drama manages to convey this in a profound and beautiful way, despite the censorship.

On the whole I would recommend this show to people who love romance, fantasy, and don't mind if it's rough around the edges. If you're looking for great acting across the board, or a tight plot, or a good villain, look elsewhere.

Greatest Weakness: Lack of a solid villain and satisfying plot structure
Greatest Strength: The two leads

one of the best asian dramas

I have finished this show a long time ago but I completely forgot writing a review about it.
I am not the kind of person who would rewatch a show only if it was THAT good.. well, this show was indeed, that good. A few months after watching it for the first time I binged watched it again and I have a feeling I will re-watch it sometime soon. I started reading the books after finishing a show and I loved it! I would recommend reading Grandmaster Of Demonic Cultivation because it is really great and has a lot more romantic/cute scenes between Wei Wuxian and Lan Zhan.
Anyway, back to the show.
I usually skip through scenes when I get bored or just simply drop a drama if it has way too many filler episodes but with The Untamed I did not have to do either. I loved every single episode of it and I am pretty sure I would never get bored watching this show. I do not think that I will ever find another Chinese drama that I will love this much like I could talk about my love for WangXian for hours.
I do not want to spoil anything or talk more in-depth about this show, but I hope anyone who watches it will enjoy it just as much as I did.

What I enjoyed:
• Themes: good vs evil, loyalty, selfishness vs selflessness, mob mentality and group think, justice vs revenge, exploitation and corruption of power, privilege, justice, forgiveness, relationships (familial, romantic, friendship, brotherhood, siblings, parent/child)
• Music: I loved the soundtrack. I enjoyed the instrumental soundtrack more than the character songs
• Locations and sets: I loved the whole aesthetic behind different sect/clan principal residences. Especially Cloud Recesses and Lotus Pier
• Love story: It was a joy to watch their beautiful, but tragic love story unfold
• LWJ looked fresh, beautiful, and ethereal during second half of the drama
• Costumes: The different colors made it easier to tell the different clans apart

What I didn’t enjoy:
• Majority of the female characters were killed off and there weren’t many to begin with. I think only 3 female characters with lines survived
• WWX looked terrible in the second half. I’m not sure if it was a director’s choice, but he looked sickly, unwell, and deathly pale
• LWJ becoming chief cultivator. This just doesn’t make any sense. LWJ has shown zero interest in leadership roles. He outright ignores the other cultivators so it’s unbelievable that he’d have any capital to procure the chief cultivator position.
• It took forever to wrap up the JGY arc. Seriously, just kill him already. I totally agreed with WWX when he blurted, “Can we stop talking and just start fighting?”
• Plot: plot was confusing for the first two episodes
• Extra long flashback: When the flashback ended, I couldn’t recall what happened in episode 1 and 2
• JGY has the most punchable face and his dimples did nothing for me. He was also hammy in several scenes
• Wang Yibo looked dazed, sleepy, and unfocused in early flashback scenes episodes. It was a bit distracting
• Styling: I wished the director would have styled WWX differently after his resurrection. But he essentially had the same hairstyle, same look, same feel
• LWJ appearance: He looked ethereal and beautiful, but I felt that Wang Yibo should have bulked up for the role. His character is supposed to be more muscular and stronger than WWX.
• Noticeable continuity/editing errors. On repeated watch, the errors will become more noticeable
• The Ending: Initially, I was so confused by the ending. Did they end up together? Did they go their separate way? After doing a bit of research, I came to the conclusion that they did spend some time apart, but reunited after some time.

Overall, I LOVED The Untamed. After watching the drama, I read the novel, watched the Special Edition, watched BTS videos, watched interviews with the actors, read up on all The Untamed content I could find, and watched fan made music videos. This is the only drama that has captivated me (I've seen several dramas)

Didn't thought I'd fall in love

I do not like bromances usually, I hate the fact that in those stories, their is only too subtle insinuation and no kisses or anything but I almost do not consider The Untamed not being one, here's why:
The chemistry and acting of the actors are insane, you can truly feel the love between them, there is so much signs they love each other, especially Lan Zhan (with his headband for exemple).
Also the story is really good and I didn't see time pass during the 50 episodes, even though I usually have difficulties to finish series and also with this genra.
The costumes and settings are also stunning, I loved it! The theme songs are wonderful too and add so real immersion and emotions to the series.
The only sad point is that I watched it on Viki after seeing the traductions seemed more understandable for me than with the YouTube translation but ho god what a mistake. I had heard of the "soulmate scene' where Wei Wuxiang tells Lan Zhang who he is for him but it was transformed into "very good friend" in the Viki translation and I only realized at the end so I was waiting for it when it already had passed...Poor me, the real translation is much more meaningful so don't do the same mistake as me.

Truly a masterpiece

What a truly great drama! At first I thought - the men in this show sure are feminine looking. By the end of the show I couldn't believe how great this show is. The amazing story, acting and music . Man oh man, the music is in a league of its own!
The plot has some amazing moments that just pull at your heartstrings. Interestingly, this show gets better every time you rewatch it! Don't be scared away by the Boy Love elements. It's really subtle if that's not your thing. I'm not into BL but by the end of this film I wanted the two male leads to live happily ever after!
