One of the most realistic relationship developments I have seen. Characters have dimensions to them. They showcase the good and the bad of the characters really well. Very relatable.

In terms of bromance, as gruff and cold SZ seems in this series, he was the first to realise his feelings. TF is an idiot when it comes to himself but understands others very well. So through SZ's pain, he also realised his feelings later. Have patience guys. WZ is a 17 yr old who has no time for anything else than to protect his emperor and consort wan. He sees them as his parents and I believe Consort Wan and the Emperor sees WZ as their son too. They care deeply about him. WZ is just happy to have friends like TF and SZ with him. After all, it must be hard for a 17 yr old talented eunuch in the position of power and preferred by the majesty and his consort. People either want to be him or kill him. He just needed friends :(

Prepare your brain for theories

Honestly, if you are looking for a show you can watch head empty then this is not for you. I have seen some others blame the show for a lack of plot and even though I think the writing could be better, one needs to pay attention to the small clues left throughout the episodes to connect the dots. You cannot simply not rewatch it and expect to understand what's going on. This increases the rewatch value because once you have an answer you will need to go back and rewatch episodes to see how it was hinted at in a previous episode. The last episode was done nicely and opens up the possibility of S2.

Apart from the plot, acting phenomenal, bgm used is also good. CGI is a bit questionable but not to expect much from a Thai drama in terms of CGI. Overall better than a lot of shows out of GMM that are overly hyped. This show makes you think and theorise and that's what many liked about it. If you are not one to like thinking much then maybe this is not for you.

However, I will ask the viewers to give it a watch anyway and decide for themselves because as with any other show, some people will like it and some people will not.
