Hu Yao Xiao Hong Niang: Yue Hong Pian

Fox Spirit Matchmaker Red-Moon Pact is a long-awaited drama that broke the iQIYI pre-broadcast reservation record. It didn't disappoint me. The acting is top-notch, the sets are gorgeous, the costumes are stunning, and even the OST soundtracks are beautiful. The male lead, DongFang YueChu, is simply amazing - the actor (Gong Jun) is certainly handsome, but what really attracts me is his masculinity, wit, sincerity, and confidence. His love and devotion to his Lady Fairy is one of a kind and very different from the typical love relationships/stories in other Chinese dramas. I finished watching 14 episodes and am excited to see how YueChu become the leader of Yiqidao Alliance and avenge the murder of his parents.

I was concerned about the special effects of this fantasy drama, as many fantasy dramas focused so much on their special effects and forgot the importance of the storyline. Fox Spirit Matchmaker Red-Moon Pact has balanced the special effects and storyline well. As a viewer, I am drawn by the beautifully designed special effects, but not losing interest in the story. The plot is also realistic that a child adopted by the Chief of Fox Spirit can develop a relationship with her. The inner debates of YueChu in finding out the kind of relationship he develops with HongHong is very realistic. It's exciting to see how YueChu's struggles to discover the ultimate truth. On the flip side of the story, HongHong struggles at the same time in accepting her feelings for YueChu and YueChu's feelings for her. How two of them grow as they struggle together will be something that I look forward to seeing.

I completely fell in love with this fantasy world.

A story about love and protection.

And i haven seen the animation before.

They made a good challenge to complete the parts not found in animation. The details of the couple's relationship are also laid out very comprehensively, and every detail of the interaction was clearly explained. The viewing experience is so smooth and enjoyable for me.

Also I do love the characters.

The actor who plays Dongfang Yuechu is so good at acting and looks pretty.

I plan to start watching other TV series he starred in.

I feel like I will become his fan!

Already Looking forward to the next episode.

Such a beautifully made fantasy drama. One of the best in the recent years! Gong Jun did a very good job playing a teenager Dong Fang Yue Chu at the beginning, so energetic and smart, very different from his previous roles such as Wen Kexing and Han Ye. This is a very beautiful but at the same time sad love story because there is a huge gap between humans and spirits. Therefore, it is even harder for human and spirit to fall in love and stay with each other forever. It might be set to fail but Dong Fang Yue Chu and Tu Shan Hong Hong still try to fight for it. It's like Romeo and Juliet LOVE it!

I've finished watching 6 episodes and already wanted to share my review because I really enjoyed watching Fox Spirit Matchmaker Red-Moon Pact. This drama was adapted by a comic which I have never read. Thus, I don't care how different it is from the original comic, as long the storyline makes sense. The drama plot is compact and the pace is good. It intersperses the current situation and background of the human and spirit races. There were many foreshadowing but it did not give people a sense of disappointment. The plot is quite gripping.

The special effects are cool. The Tushan scenery is very romantic and beautiful. The special effects of each character's magic and spell moves are particularly good - kudos to the production team!

I also want to praise Gong Jun's acting skills. I have always thought that such an eccentric male character must be played by a short and skinny guy. Gong Jun proved me wrong! He is tall and muscular, but fits the role of DongFang YueChu very well. Whether he is acting coquettishly with the fox fairies or getting along with friends, I feel like he is a real teenage boy, childish and cute.
