So I have watched a considerable amount of drama before writing this and there were good ones among them. But literally I never wanted to EVER write a review. But for this drama I must. I am not going to babble about the synopsis, it's a little bit of everything. A little bit of horror, romance, fantasy and 75% bromance. It's those bonds which are really precious in this drama. The sibling bonds and the friendship/slight yaoi bromance bond. I once got to know of this drama because Xiao Zhan is a member of my favorite c-pop group X-nine. I have already watched Oh! My emperor and his acting was epic for the role of Moran. In this drama I must say, his acting was quite unexpectedly impressive. Knowing his personality and previous roles, i can tell he had to give a lot of effort to do this. and it must have been a little bit cringey for him. When I first watched it, I was so surprised because he was doing a role which is so unexpectedly contrasting.

On Wang Yibo's part, I have seen so many people criticizing his acting saying that since his personality is so simillar to Lan Zhan that he did not do a good job. But imo he was the pinnacle of the whole series. How often do we get to see a role such as this? I'd say its pretty rare. It's a rare role and it takes a lot of effort to do it too! Lan Zhan might not speak more than 10 words for a single episode but he had to do a lot of work with facial expressions. I rewatched his scenes more than like 10 times and there were many moments I wondered how he is going to tackle his reactions. He had to not smile and smile which is not even a smirk in some scenes and doing that requires a lot of skill. Also his drunk acting is super epic. The other characters were really impressive too, like Wen Ning and Jia Cheng. They did a good job in terms of acting.

The music of the drama is what made the whole drama so memorable and increase the re-watch value. I listen to Bu Wang and QuJinChenQing literally everyday when I work out. So beautiful lyrics and such beautiful voices. The OSTS are indeed impressive even the background instrumentals. And beautiful china btw, watching all these scenic shots makes me realize I'm taking a vacation by watching the show itself. I gave the Drama a 9.5, because I personally enjoyed the interactions with the two male leads. After, the second rebirth of Wei Wuxian the drama was melancholic and it was ok but got a bit boring at the end. Maybe, because it did not have much interactions with the main male leads. However, overall this literally could be the best drama I watched for this year hands down!
