THE BEST DRAMA THAT MAKES ME UNABLE TO MOVE ON
Well, I want to talk a little about this Chinese drama. Hmm.. to be more precise, I failed to move on with this drama. This is the first drama played by Zhao Lusi and Leo Wu Lei.
At first, I wasn't interested in watching it. But when I saw the trailer on Twitter, it was interesting. Finally I decided to watch this, full 27 Eps for part 1 and 29 Eps for part 2 with a duration of about 45 minutes for each episode.
This drama tells the story of two main characters, Cheng Shaoshang (played by Zhao Lusi), and General Ling Bu Yi (Leo Wu Lei) who was fall in love at first sight with Shaoshang.
Cheng Shaoshang is a young girl who has been abandoned by her parents to the battlefield, and has to experience toxic parenting by her own family (her grandmother and 2nd aunt) for 15 years. Since birth, she has lack of love and affection has made her grow into a pragmatic and insecure girl to choose a husband. While General Ling Bu Yi was the God of War of the dynasty at that time. He has a strong character, very ambitious, dominering, schemeing and daring greatly. On the other contrary his so lovely and very romantic to Shaoshang.
Okay, I can only briefly provide an outline of the story. In view of the fact that if there are too many spoilers for others, who haven't watched it yet.
Honestly, I've always been interested in Chinese dramas with historical and action themes. Because their production is very intentional, in terms of costumes, setting, player characters, and effects. And of course the soundtrack.
It's great, the production of the costume part is really cool and unique, adjusted to the time setting of the story. Salute to the detail and effort they give for each costume in this drama.
In terms of the background of the place, it's really cool to choose the place and the interior details used. Not only that, the background of the place is taken from outside too, the setting of the situation is really cool. Demonstrate the professionalism of the production team.
The setting of the place, in my opinion, cannot be separated from the properties in it. And... it's always a cool property. The properties are thought out and carefully prepared down to the smallest detail, which may appear fleetingly in the scene. As for effects, the effects used feel on point adjusted to the situation and conditions of the scene being displayed. In certain scenes it's so beautiful it even seems like CGI.
The original soundtrack is a simple but the best. What makes me fall in love with Chinese drama OSTs with historical themes, where there are always instruments from traditional musical instruments in it. It's like making peace your heart and mind cool.
Apart from the name of the main character, all the players have their own character strengths. They can highlight the strength of their characters even if they are just supporting actors.
Last but least, the coolest scene throughout the drama. Hmmm.... that's a lot. Hahaha. There are many cool and memorable scenes in it. For me personally I really like the scene at the lantern festival, and the scene where CSS and General Ling meet in the ginko tree forest.
All in all, this drama is really cool, even for the first part. Until I was confused about what to write, I was too speechless. And I still watch the drama again. Hahaha... I'm in love with this drama.
For those of you who want to watch the drama, you can watch it on the WeTV application. Really have to watch it!!!
