Literary massacre.
Since this is a remake, I was obviously expecting something fresh that would make this title stand out against previous ones. Sadly, CGI and choreography were worse than previous versions. All the other aspects fell short too, with acting being the worst. I couldn't bring myself to feel any sympathy for the characters because there was no reason to, they looked like puppets with no facial expressions.
Storyline: I cannot understand how a novel adaptation could be so badly written. You already have an outline, how do you fuck that up? Who are they hiring to write these? From the dialogue to character development to the actual sequence of events, everything was terrible. I could not find a single redeeming factor for this show to make me continue. Throughout, I was hoping it would improve, but it got progressively worse. Halfway through, I knew the only way to end the torment was to turn blind or turn off the show, I chose the latter and left my boyfriend to watch it on his own.
Cast: Not a single person on this cast could pull off their characters. XuDan looked like a doe-eyed, constantly frowning figurine, pouting throughout the entire show. Regardless of whether she was supposed to be happy, sad, evil, she looked the same. You could replace her with one of those life-sized sex dolls and no one would know the better. Just put some eye drops on the sex doll for the crying scenes and you're golden! If I had the power to extend my hand into the screen and slap some facial expression into her, I would. The ML was just as bad. I watched him in this role before his other shows, so he did not leave a very good impression. I have to say that he did well in the other show, therefore, I know for a fact that he is not the worst actor out there. It is simply poor directing, poor writing, coupled with poor development for the ML. I actually thought YuQi did quite well, but it isn't because she is a particularly outstanding actress. The rest of the cast did so poorly, she stood out as the best one.
Music: Best if one could just pick up the OST for this show without having to sit through endless, neverending visual and mental torture.
Conclusion: Dropped it, so make of that what you will.
