Not your usual romance

I think I really enjoyed this drama. I initially watched it for Kenny Lin but his character in this drama gave me frustrations beyond compare. However, I came out with a lot of lessons about life. I think it is a drama I would recommend to people who love matured themes and want to enjoy stories about relationships told from a realistic point of view. It is the tale of rose but the lesson is not everything is a bed of roses. I love the acting of the actors and actresses. Most are actors that I’ve skipped multiple of their dramas but now I will go back and watch whatever is on the table.

I think this one of the few dramas that really caught my attention. Everything was in place, not draggy but rather on point. In the beginning I was hooked up with Jiuchen n Long xi couple but as time went on my heart fell for Yunfeng and Qingyao couple. They really made me glued on the screen n hooked up to the series especially when Jiuchen was spending his time in the mortal realm with A- mo.
I liked the state preceptors love for A- mo but he just killed all that when he killed her mother. I guess ling xi would have been more generous to him if she knew that he killed her grandpa because he forced him to betray his family.
Apart from all these the heavenly emperor was my favorite character. He was like a supporting father to jiuchen and best uncle to Yunfeng. He really did a lot for these two as if they were his own children.
The character that brought me to attention in this drama wa Le bo, ling xi' s father from peach forest and it really hit me hard when he unjustly died.

The music was on point, I liked everything about the music in this drama. It expressed all types of emotions from every characters point of view. I just downloaded the whole playlist and I am loving it.

The rewatch value is not quite high since its really long but if I have to rewatch I will give it a try especially on the parts of Yunfeng and Qingyao. Hope these two have a drama of their own in the future.

In general the story was beautiful and well written and directed. I didn't see any problems with the CGI or mistakes from the editing. It was a beautiful gem.
