Still in the jinyi pit
I would recommend this one to anyone who just like to fall in love. Technical aspect is really a bit low but the acting is really superb. It's like Jin Xia and Lu Yi came out from a comics book. They don't look like they are acting when you watch them. It's like just watching two people flirting and you can't help rooting for them to end up together. I would say story is a bit simple unlike other investigation series. But grandma jinyis don't mind because I think the main goal of the series is to spread dog food ????
It's more than a year now but I still can't find a Chinese costume series that is half as good as under the power. Other shows have better effects and more good looking cast but only jinyi really captured my heart. I tried watching other costume series with good rating but the characters can't win me over. Either the female lead is too stupid or the male lead has facial paralysis so I have to stop watching for the sake of my sanity. I also tried to watch Ren Jialun other costume drama but the female leads made me cringe that's why I go back to the pit. I already read the novel and several fanwai but I still can't get enough. I hope we can have a season 2 or movie to show their life after master Lu came out from prison.
ATM I'm reading the novel of Jinxin si yu to at least start digging myself out from the pit. I really hope adaptation would be good so I would have new series on my playlist.
