It is official.This was my first GL.Well actually not a real Gl due to censorship but it doesn't matter.I came here for the Girl's Love and stayed for everything else.Iam not yet too familiar with Chinese dramas/actors but i already know iam fascinated by Chinese Republican Era.And iam so glad this series gave me Killer & Healer vibes!(still one of my top 3 Bls)

So let's dive into this underrated gem!

Acting/cast: I don't know any of the actors but i will definetely follow their work in the future if the genre is right for me.I gave acting a 9 because nothing felt off.

Music:Emblematic!Amazing!Dressed all the scenes so beautifully.I loved intro and outro and never skipped(i usually do skip)
Loved both visuals and songs alhough i didn't understand a word!

Production:High valued.Costumes,hair,makeup,props,scenery.Everything nicely done.

Cinematography: The main reason this series gets a 10 from me.
The Director of Photography did an AMAZING job.I searched but i couldn't find his/her name.But still Cudos!You have my endless admiration for your work.
The rotation of the camera,the angles,the frames,the colors like an old painting.The slow-motion scenes!The zoom in's and out's..Fantastic.Just a fantastic job!Even if the story was a mediocre (which is NOT) i still would give a 10 because of the cinematography alone.This series was a pure pleasure to my eyes.Iam not an expert obviously but as a viewer i was more than satisfied!The artistic part was perfect!

Story/plot.An easy to follow story,Never get bored.I wanted more episodes though.12 werent enough to me!There were few gaps in the background stories of our MFLs.They could develop it more.Still story was very interesting.
You watch one episode and you think this is how the story goes so far.You watch the scenes only to find out that those scenes were actually incomplete,and you will discover this in a latter episode.So you realize the story wasn't complete either!So surreal!You have to watch to fully understand the magic behind this.And all due to the cinematography!I know i repeat myself!

Characters:An evil husband.A snake friend.I will not get into those 2 chars but both were very interesting and contributed to the story the best.
A detective.He is such a sweet person.Smart,hard-working,dedicated to his job.Good looking too!He figured all out but couldn't prove anything due to lack of evidence.I sympathized him and although he is messing with my beloved girls i can't hate him!
Xu You Yi:One of our main leads.She looks delicate,fragile,naive and weak.Like a porcelaine doll.She is beautiful too.
But underneath she is nothing like this.She is a strong,stubborn,smart and independent woman with high values and sense of justice.She didnt let herself to be under her husband's power.A well written character, especially for that era she was kinda a rebel!Lol.
Yan Wei:The 2nd main lead.The character i loved the most.Actually i loved everything about her.How someone with such an angelic face can be such a badass?She is lethal.Capable with guns.A skilled assassin.Her past is shady,dark and troubled.
I loved how she acts when she is around You Yi.Overprotective towards her.Jealous,sweet,shy,clumsy.Liked her social awkwardness.Loved all the sweet and funny moments they shared.I can't imagine how much funnier and interesting it could be if not censored.
I didn't expect to fall inlove with this series.I want,i need,i demand and i wish for a second season and soon!
Please give it a try.And feel free to comment and tell me if you liked it or not.I wanna know if iam the only one who got hyped!
Thank you for reading my review!
