This drama is a master piece.  The STORY was a heart breaking one.  At some points,  it will make you sad,  others mad and even angry.  This drama will give you a lot of strong emotions.  Nevertheless, this drama is not for everyone.  It depends on your personality and taste. There's a lot of political issues,  family issues and people with mental disorders, this show is sensitive with the things that appear and say on it.  So be aware of that. 

The ACTING was incredible amazing.  But the one who did the best was the villain (Song Yoon-Ah)  best known in the series as Choi Yoo-Jin,  a cold and heartless woman but beautiful in the inside. She was the best character in the whole series. Lee Jung-Jin,  better know as Chairman Choi was incredible amazing too.  Ji Chang Wook did a beautiful job despite of Yoona's character,  my less favorite.  Don't get me wrong,  I did love some things about her,  and I can relate to her in some cases but I wish she was able to do more instead of crying and letting others lie to her.    

The music is OKAY and it goes with the story.   When it comes to rewatch value,  it all depends on the person,  I love this series but I won't probably watch it again because I'm not the type of person who repeats series, but maybe in ten years it would be the perfect time. It depends on the person. 

Overall: 10 stars.  It deserves it for being sucy a great drama and amazing acting.  Give it a try.

Such a beautiful, deep and heartbreaking drama. It counts the story of Prince Of Lan Ling. In this drama you will be able to enmerse yourself in another world of romance, drama, pain, suffering and disgrace. It has a little bit of everything. Every chracter has their own story, their own reason to be such way, it's a world of injustice and pain. But it's really beautiful and touching, I really recommended.  The acting is just amazing, they know how to make you feel a lot of feelings and actually suffer with them. The music is really pretty and I think I will re watch this amazing drama in a future. Last but not least, I can't leave without saying how amazing Prince of Lan Ling was and how amazing she was, and how amazing king of Zhou was. Just really touching and deep.  You won't regret.

Cinematography 10/10, messed up story

This drama brings me a lot of emotions. I’ll start first stating the positive things about it. The cinematography, the lightning, and the shots are out of this world. They’re simply beautiful to the eye. The locations were beautifully planned and the shots portrayed the characters different emotions and deepest fears. Secondly, Lee Min Hoo performed well in this drama. (First time I say that)! Aside from him, the villain (the actor) his skills at acting are amazing, he never disappoints. He was probably the best actor in this drama. In the beginning, I was not convinced with the protagonist that they choose because they don’t have that much chemistry. Here we come to the negative, the lack of chemistry and the worst thing: the scenes and the jumping. Most scenes didn’t follow each other and the story was pretty confusing most of the time. I think it’s okay to make us viewers think, but we are mostly watching a show to entertain ourselves ... not to be resolving puzzles that don’t make sense. The final episode was pretty satisfying to me, I won’t state how. However, there is a lot of things that I did not understand even till the last episode. I don’t know why they choose to make it so confusing. This drama was really hard to watch and got boring in a lot of episodes, I had to force myself to keep going and I think it was worthy to what I was expecting, but I wouldn’t recommend you watching it if you have better things to do/watch. Another thing I dislike was the promos/ ads that were too obvious and kept appearing repeatedly through different episodes. I may have forgotten one or two things that could be negative too about this drama. Overall, the negatives are bigger than the positive ones. For my liking, I only watched it because I like to appreciate it the cinematographers work and how hard they work on it.

This was a beautiful drama. Zhang Bin Bin and Dilralba Dilmurat always doing a great job as always. The best actor here is Zhang Bin Bin, his chracter is beautiful, sad but strong at the same time. Dilralba's chracter was okay, her acting is exellent but the personality of ru ge was a little bit weak, and weird. The story is okay, theres some scenes that are boring but is okay, its a good drama overall but I was expecting more, also Dilraba and the main lead had no chemistry at all, even though his chracter was beautiful. The villian was amazing , his acting skills were great. But I have to admit it, I watch this drama mostly because of Zhang Bin Bin and his acting, its not a bad drama but its not so good either

such a beautiful drama with amazing characters , amazing villain. The actors did a great job but the award goes for the main male, he is so good playing two different personalities. this drama is beautiful, it shows how a mother suffers when leaving her soon behind , family issues, and seek of power can make you into a heartless person. it shows how much you can grow , how much hate can control you if you dont stop it, i am happy about everything about this drama. every single episode is really really great it leaves you wondering whats gonna happen next, never boring. the first episodes will most likely to upset you because of certain situations, I almost dropped it, but I am glad i didn't because the drama grows into a really amazing one, and all the characters they end up where they belong, and some of them growing and being better persons. love it.

0 chemistry, badly written

The music is very bad in this drama. I feel like it did not add anything to the story at all.
Acting was lacking from all of the characters. They were written in a way that i was unable to connect with any of them.
The female bad one was mean for no reason, even a beginner writer could have written a better plot line for the villain . The other fiance like she just started doing evil things without reason , so unrealistic everything how is written. It was very hard to finish this drama. Super disappointing and boring all the way.
The couple had absolutely 0 chemistry. They were dry and boring even on the kisses scene and marriage. None of the “couples” had any chemistry. A waste of time this drama. I am use to masterpieces and this is not one of them

This a great drama. It’s intense, beautiful, heartbreaking, soothing... and more. It has everything we can ask for in a drama, amazing actors with a really intense and magnificent plot. Amazing villain and powerful women, romance is not the main focus. I like that this drama focuses more on the protagonist individual self and her worth. I like how mature the love is portrait as it’s not given that much importance ... it’s mostly about her and her development as a independent woman. It’s a perfect drama, never boring... it always ends crazy and you will be shocked by everything. The cinematography is amazing, the shots are 10/10, the lightning , points of view , etc and the way every character is dressed is unique.

I loved this drama. Anyway, it's not for everyone to see. It contains really depressing and sad. The story is so deep about two lovers who love each other deeply but they have to apart their ways because the King (qin state) wanted to marry her. The acting is completely amazing, I give it a 10/10 because they really made the efford to give us the most beautiful scenes to make us feel the way they're were feeling, the best one here was Zhang Vin, she practiced for months in order to act in Ying Zheng's role. The music is fantastic, beautiful and deep just like the drama, I could hear it a lifetime. The story is good, anyway it could have been better, but I know it has to be realistic, but in my opinion I loved Jinke and Li'er, also Han Shen was an amazing character, Jinke, han shen and li'er will always have a place in my heart. And last but not least, I would watch it again but in a few years so I can feel the same feelings as now.  Give it a try. Story 8/10 acting/cast amazing 10/10, rewatch vaue 8/10 and Overall I would give it a 9/10
