This is my third review, as I just finished watched all 56 episode. And this drama is DIVINE, absolutely perfect!

Watch and rewatched it. And just enjoy the journey. They did justice on the production. So the quality is spectacular.

I missed them already. I am very used of looking out for Tuesday. Expecting anything for my favorite pairing Ling Zisheng and Cheng Shao Shang. I adore their relationship here. Wu Lei and Zhao Lushi you guys leads this drama with ultimate excellence. You both will forever be my favorite onscreen couple.

This drama has everything and it is told with balance. So my earlier review stands legit!

1st Review:
I am in shocked… To think I have seen it all, Chinese drama and historic genre that is. This is so next level experience. An addiction.

Everyone in this drama is such an amazing people. Like, they nailed it this genre. Romance, Bromance and Courtship. I have never been this high on a drama ever since Grey’s Anatomy first released.

Wu Lei and Lushi, they have plenty in the store hidden or perhaps endless. Really can’t think of anyone in this planet would bring ‘live’ to Ling Bu Yi and Cheng Shao Shang, epically perfection. Our Galaxy Couple. I don’t use this word often, but they do mesmerized in all of their scenes. Tears, Laughter, Comedy, Action, Despair and so much more. Just went on and on notable.

I never calls favorites, but I MUST references Ep 37 & 38 worth all my anxiety of waiting for Tuesday to come.
And not just them, the cast is just magnificent in portraying their character. Everyone put justices in it. From maids to King and Queens and Prince and Princess. This is like what drama evolution looks like.

The best serial drama in 2022, I dare say. Their story. Their dialogue. The rendition. It feels similar but up a million notch higher more enchanting. Sometimes it felt like cramming the plot but it stretch in perfect length.

This Part 2 is worth the anticipation. No I don’t fear if next episodes would go south or whatever. It would just mean keeping the balance. Nothing is perfect but perfections.

Cheng Shao Shang is brave. And whenever she seek comfort towards Ling Bu Yi’s (chest, hugs, cuddle), our planet is warm again.

Ling Bu Yi’s stares at Cheng Shao Shang is fiercer than the early days. With extra drips of affection, passion, tenderness and whole-lotta-love. He is very sexy. And scary, well as a General Heroes should be.

Third Prince and Fifth Prince. They have colors. And it’s rainbow and chic.

Although all the Palace girls are mean and shallow. They walk the part and so we can bitch about them later for fun. Just some salt to balance the sweetness dose of lovey dovey scenes.

Let’s be brave with upcoming nasty breakups. Do not worry… I’m sensing the make up session will be all hot and steamy and tears jerking and beautiful… it will be worth the wait.

**** (2nd review) My review after episode 40 & 41:

Never have I seen such an ensemble of cast performs with genuinely good acting quality..

The cinematography is so on point. It’s bleak. It’s rains. It’s never sunny as bright as a sunshine would go. It tends to get cloudy. So where the lights go? Who shines in this drama? The answer to that is : Everyone casted in LLTG. Seriously, all of them shines.

Their costumes tailored for perfection. And the set is just keeps representing it self. It reminded me of how I missed watching colossal movie production. I think the best movie for me was, John Woo’s Red Cliff Part 1 & 2.

I made this second review right after finished watching (and re-watching) Ep 40 & 41:

1. LBY and CSS closeness is on another level. Nothing can beat how they stare at each other. Speak to one another. Stare in each other’s eyes. Kiss and kisses and …. Hugs and holding hands like they’ve owned each other. Truly star crossed lover. Natural and organic with their gestures, dialogues, ad-libs and expressions.

2. The Families. Court and off-court, both are played beautifully with their version of comedy, angst and seriousness. How perfect and imperfect the nobles with their clans issues.

3. ShanJian. I like him, like a lot. Sure he was an arse in the early days. Swag here and there being pretentious and untouchable royal. Then with only these two episodes, he shines to me. He probably has the genuine affection which accepts CSS features honestly. That calm and deep conversations he had with his dear Mother about having crush for CSS and helplessly dotting her even knowing it’s impossible as he got late in the game. As so he thinks.

It is going to be tough love for next week episodes. As the fixation towards this drama keeps building like reading Harry Potter next volume for the first time. Tuesday come soon….
