Love the actors playing the ML and FL
Really good entertainment. A really long good entertainment. Some parts were a little draggy but never boring.Lots of character developments all around, not only with the ML and FL but also with the supporting roles. I think each roles were well thought off and beautifully written. The characters were unique but at the same time realistic enough to be relatable.
For example, the FL grew up without the love of her biological parents. She craved love and always had trust and abandonment issues because of these. The ML shouldered a lot of responsibilities ever since he was young.
They're like two parallel lines that were destined to meet at some point. One craved freedom from oppression, the other, freedom from his endless search for justice.
Now, to what I don't like. I don't like the on and off and on and off and then on again kind of relationship. The rest was fine. It gave me a good laugh, it made my heart ache at times, it has good action sequence and plot surprises.

A REALLY GOOD DRAMA
Such a good drama, I don't know how many times I've rewatched it...Leo Wu is very young but his acting is outstanding, Zhao Lusi is also very good. Their chemistry is great, hope to see them again in another drama.
I really like the visuals of the drama, the colors are great. although colossal dramas are usually more serious, but not with love like galaxy, there are so many scenes that make you laugh until you cry.
Leo Wu's role as the cold general can still make you laugh out loud.
This drama really needs to be watched... it's really amazing.

A slow burn drama that is worth your while.
When I write this review I have actually finished both parts. So I know how the 2nd part is even better than the first (if that is even possible). If you have time to watch, watch it slow as it was meant to be, you will be immensely satisfied. Do justice to the film crews who have worked so hard to make this joyful film, do not skip scenes. All are equally meaningful. To me everything were just perfect. The casting, the acting, the background music, the story, the cinematography and all . So there are no other deserving score than a 10 from me. Just love the chemistry between the leads. Zhao Lusi I have seen in a few other dramas and know she can act well, but the ML as Ling Buyi was just excellent here. His voice, his gaze and his manner in different roles from a war general to a longing lover were just perfect. Same for all the rest. Kudos to all the casts and the drama/film makers.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Fantastic slow burn drama
I am a huge fan of slow burn romance dramas, and this one ticks all of the boxes for me. It has an interesting storyline, likable characters that you can relate to and empathize with, and amazing chemistry between the two leads. I've watched too many shows where the FL falls in love with the ML in just a few episodes and while I don't usually mind it, a longer relationship progression is much more engaging and realistic. In this drama you can actually see the FL and ML's love, respect, and trust for each other grow throughout each episode.People have mentioned that it had a slow start, but I found that the beginning actually lay out great groundwork for future episodes and I didn't find any episode boring at all. I loved learning more about the FL and her family life as it made her more relatable and interesting.
Things also worth mentioning: beautiful cinematography, humour that is comedic but not overdone and exaggerated, and storyline/scenes that really pull at your heartstrings. While I don't know what part 2 holds, I highly recommend watching part 1!

Best drama of the year
Love Like the Galaxy is best drama of the year. It shows family relationship, romance, politics and palace drama. The characters are real, when you watch, you can understand where they’re coming from. The cast is awesome!!!!! I love so many of the characters. You get to see their strength and weak moments. Storyline is beautifully done from beginning to end. I started with laughing so much to crying my eyes out towards the end. The screenwriters are brilliant. This drama does not disappoint. Watch and don’t rush through it, savor it ❤️Esta resenha foi útil para você?
One of the best dramas of the year
Everything was amazing. Starting from the plot, the cast, direction, music. I have no complaints but only appreciation. The main cast never disappointed us in a single scene. The dedication and talent was clearly visible through every frame. And I must say that the director was extremely cool and funny and definitely talented. You cannot bring the best from your cast unless you are talented. Thank you again sir.The drama gives you mixed emotions in every second. Love, happiness, jealous, sadness, heartache, any emotion you name it. You can rewatch it again and again still won't get ever bored. Thank you very much for everyone who's been part of this amazing work.

What I find refreshing is just that. Little by little layers are delved into so that we understand the characters as they develop. Not only that, it’s family oriented, gives us slice of life moments. It has palace intrigues, secrets, birthrights, and of course scheme.
Towards the end of season, as General declares his love for Shaoshang, it’s a perfect arrival to season two where we have lots to build on as we anticipate the direction of the leads romance. Mind you, there’s loads of great moments of the story to keep us entertained, laugh out loud, shed some tears, etc. I give so much credit to entire cast, yes leads and younger cast members but also salute to older members for their great contributions. It’s a well put together story so don’t be a sleeper on this great production. Just read subs fast cuz lots of script conversations. Enjoy!

One of the greatest rom com of all times.
I just had to put praises into this drama. I seldom finish or even try to watch traditional/ historical cdrama that would take 50 to 60 episodes to finish but this one i must say is worth the watch.It might be a slow burn romance between the main leads but their chemistry is just off the charts. Their slight glances and small interactions, gahd, these characters are perfect for each other. The plot was also great, aside from romance, there's also a mystery, secrets waiting to be revealed. The characters, both on Shaoshang and Zhisheng sides are amazing, they're both warm, fun and caring but also protective and unique in their own way.
Watching this 56 episode drama shall pass by smoothly. It's really worth watching for.

Part 1
Quite some time I've not found some drama that really binge worthy like this. This drama make me lack sleeping because I really want to keep my eyes open & continue watch that story. Haha...I don't want much talk about what this drama about, because from what I've read quite some people already wrote about that & their description quite accurate. So I don't wanna bored you guys with another summary or talk about what this drama about. Let's we just jump to what I like & dislike about this drama... :P
What I like:
+ Adorable young couple. Many historical c-drama talk about young marriage couple, especially the woman, because you know old days they're married quite young, but mostly our FL character quite mature (quiet, composed, calm whatever you want to called it) and we can't really imagine they actually quite young in their supposed age in the drama. Here we can see Cheng Shao Shang / Niao Niao (NN) (age 15) actually quite childish in her nature, like how witty or active she is. But what make her different than other character is how she look at marriage really portray how actually she herself still a child, like her conversation with Wan Qi Qi: "What's it like to be in love? It is better to find a playmate as a husband," she describe marriage like playing house. Or later on we can see how fickle her with her love feeling tpward Ling Bu Yi / Zi Sheng (ZS)
+ How fast Xiao Yuan Yi (NN mom) to eliminate annoying character, which is Cheng Yang's mother. I really think at first she will continue bother us in our drama, but it's false & I really glad they don't took time to eliminate one annoying character. Even the grandmother become quite subdue for the rest of the drama. Haha...
+ The looked in ZS face, especially his eyes when he see NN. Even from the smallest glance we can see that it's love at the first sight. And how gentle his eyes every time he see NN. Haha...
+ The funny king, kind hearted queen & the dynamic of the king family. But more of them at part 2.
+ The adorable sidekick, Liang Qiu Qi and Liang Qiu Fei (QF). Sometimes really funny to see the interaction with ZS with his 2 assistant, especially QF, how sometimes his mouth is just incontrollable and spitting out words.
What I don't like:
- How partial NN mom is & not to NN herself, a daughter that she already left behind for 15 years, yet not get the love from her mother & must witness how partial her mother with Cheng Yang/Yang Yang (YY).
- How stupid or childish Yuan Shen (YS) is. Hey you love NN, yet you do nothing to prove it & what you can only do is teasing & annoyed NN & after that just jealous to see the other get her love & attention. It's not nice & I don't too like this kind of love that YS show.
Overall this part like everybody wrote, mostly talk about family dynamic, the feeling that our couple try to develop & how to shape NN character. Really exciting to looked for answer in the part 2.

Great style, mood, acting, music.... etc
Overall, great production.Acting
This series has proven to me that Zhao Lusi is a great actress. She can act like a wise swordswoman from "Who Rules the World" to a 15-year-old girl in "Love Like a Galaxy" Sometimes, I wonder why the female lead acted so rashly and even stupidly, then I have to remind myself she is only 15. Leo Wu plays the cold emotionless general very well. The supporting casts are all commendable as well.
Mood
The mood is well-set and constant throughout the series. Especially the lady's quarter chatters remind me of the 17 and 18th-century Western eras when the ladies and men are separated.
Style
The style is very down-to-earth and not overly exaggerated. The sets are done tastefully.
Music
I swear there were moments of the music reminded me of Downton Abby! I like the opening, just music, not loud singing like some other series.
Directing
Directing is not overly exaggerated. I even forgive the repetitive hugs in a few scenes.
Overall
I think the production value is excellent. The humor is not over the top. I enjoyed the slow pace cinematography. Although there were a few moments I wondered why they made certain decisions, I stuck with it. The ending scenes are too rushed and left some things unexplained. I heard the director had to cut many scenes and he will release a director's cut version. Can't wait for that to come out!
