AND THE WINNER IS.... *drumrolls*
No one, no one, no one ♪
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling ♪
THE HEADACHES. THE FRUSTRATIONS.
Frankly speaking, I didn't have any expectation for this. Coming as Luo Yunxi's fan, I was anticipating Love is Sweet and Immortality but seeing how this turned out, it's safe to keep it low or none at all, especially for the latter. Perhaps I should add Broker as well into the list and hope Song xiaojie will change my mind and wow me instead. Or maybe I should stay neutral because in the end, it all depends on screenplay, editing and ultimately, the director's vision.

ATWIL premise a.k.a the core unarguably, has the potential to be big. It's interesting, I'd give that. What's gone wrong is the execution. To put simply, the whole shebang is messy. The cinematography is flat-out 1D. Plot direction is amateurish. Background music placement is either a semi-hit or a complete miss. The characters? They get nothing done. The acting? Nothing monumental.
I've only seen Yukee Chen in AOL and Princess Weiyoung, so it's a tad unfair to stamp her as -not yet a leading lady material in costume drama- considering I've only watched two of her performances to base from but I will be blunt: she's okay as supporting cast. She's okay at portraying roles like Liuying and Tuoba Di. Beyond that, there'll be a string of sighs. Luo Yunxi on the other hand, has the knack playing complex character and is adept at emoting profound expressions. So what does ATWIL give him? Noting his versatility and widening his fan-base. That's it.
It would be tiring to explain every problematic aspects of this production and tbh I actually skipped a lot, so I'll stop here. If anything, re-watch to see flirty Shangguan Tou. Apart from that, there's tons of well-produced dramas out there to make your time more worthwhile.
