Yue Yun Hui Sheng (2021)

what the heck was this?

I don't know where to begin, but I guess the "what the heck was this?" says it all.
First of all, I just watched this because of Liu Chang. He looks cool as always. And that's all the positive thing I can tell about this drama.
The only time I smiled when Liu Sang started rapping. That was funny.
The story is simple, the ending is weird.
I was just confused and was hard to follow who is who, who possessed who, who betrayed who, who saves who etc.... so I just went with the flow and watched for Liu Sang only.
It was easy to finish since the episodes are no longer than 5 minutes or less. Does not make sense to me dividing the drama into mini episodes. Actually it would have been better to show it as a whole film, 14 episodes, each 4 minutes average, easily adds up to a 50-minute long film.
Rewatch value: zero
Music: average
Acting: average

For Fans of the Lost Tomb Series and Liu Chang

Another completely biased review from me to you

I've become totally enamored with Liu Chang recently (his appearance in Link Click is yummy) so I've been going through his past series and watching. I had already watched Reunion: The Sound of Providence previously (his character is so fun and untrustworthy and deadly and he has a major crush on Zhang Qiling so I can relate) so I'm watching other lost tomb side stories now. I started with the Reunion side story Ping Yao Wang Shi. Oh boy, that was pretty bad. Next up this series, Echo of Moonfall. Surprisingly good. At least compared to the reunion side show. I really like Liu Chang's voice and he looks great with his long hair and costume in this, but I do admit I miss him pushing up his glasses all the time. I don't know why I like that so much but here we are.

A couple of thoughts
1. As much as I love Liu Chang, he should never try rapping again!
2. Liu Chang singing to a creepy wooden doll was not on my bucket list.
3. Pouring wine on a stab wound through a leather outer robe, then a snakeskin robe, then something that looks like sparkly metallic, and finally plain black cloth, so like 4 layers of clothing, seems pretty useless
4. WTAF was the whole jade meteorite flash and all of a sudden the previous inhabitants of the respective bodies appear with nifty new outfits on? Though I do like Liu Chang's Disney prince look.
5. Whoever did the paint-by-numbers job on the FL needs to go back to makeup school. Was it put on with a trowel? With that makeup she looks like she is ready to go hang out on a street corner somewhere. Ok, done being snarky.
6. Nice open ending, but hey we got to see a bit of a wedding scene at the end, sorta, in the credits.

I'm curious as to how Liu Chang has gotten all these Lost Tomb side stories. Most especially since they cross the different series/casts.

This is a short, 14 episode web series you can watch in under an hour and it's fun. Don't expect Reunion-level but still pretty interesting. I watched it on youtube with subs at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68RvGF_k-jE&list=PLwtrWaDwiqUdY4Ys6b5oAsSf5iQyduKP9&index=1
