i really wanted to like this
despite the ML and FL's great acting and the excellently crafted trailers, i do not see anything good about this drama. i watched the trailers and the official mv straight after they were released and was extremely excited initially and having waited more than a year for the drama, i think it's highly disappointing.
i am a big fan of yang zi and a general drama fan of cheng yi and let me make this clear THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE ACTING AT ALL - i thought the acting was great. hence why they cut some good scenes for the trailers, which attracted a lot of anticipation from viewers - i was attracted too to the trailers.
but the outcome of the drama is really quite boring to me. i did not have the feeling of wanting to watch one episode after another and basically tried to force myself to keep going because i really did like the cast and trailers. but after 10 episodes, i really don't think i can force myself any longer into this.
the story is more than generic for a xianxia drama, i see so many aspects from several dramas. i just hate how i know exactly what will happen each time because everything is so generic. the character of the FL is also so annoying to me - it's like xianxia dramas cannot have a FL with a brain (i feel very sorry that yang zi has to act like someone like that every time). and the fact that the sister HAD to turn bad like that was so expected and it's like this happens in every drama? i really hoped that they would've done something different with zixi's character but unfortunately not.
i also found the "not being able to fall in love" part very confusing? how come there is this strict rule but 1) girls publicly talk about how they lowkey have a crush on yingyuan to each other 2) they even write it on the wish sticks (lol idk what they're called sorry) and 3) that library dude keeps joking about finding love and even seducing yingyuan? like? it just confuses me.
the music was alright but nothing special + i felt nothing listening to it because of how dry the story was. even the actors' great acting seemed to be dim under the basic plot.
i really hoped that i would eventually like this but i simply don't have the energy to watch on anymore. in conclusion, i did not like this and i felt no emotions watching this.
