Zhe yao

The storyline is well-paced, intense, and keeps you hooked from start to finish-there's not a single dull moment. The cinematography is soft and beautifully done, giving a warm and comforting vibe throughout. The original soundtrack (OST) is also stunning, perfectly capturing the emotions of each scene.

The cast did an incredible job. Every actor portrayed their character with such depth and realism that I felt deeply connected to all of them. The chemistry between the lead actors was especially amazing-so good that I genuinely hope to see them act together again in the future. I also loved how clever and quick-witted the characters were; their dynamic made the story even more engaging and memorable.

Some scenes felt a bit rushed due to the limited number of episodes (36), but that's understandable. Honestly, I wish there were around 40 episodes because I didn't want it to end! Overall, it's a series that stays with you long after it ends-an unforgettable experience that absolutely deserves a full 10 out of 10!

This drama is a masterpiece. I finished it in 3 days. Stayed up. The last few episodes made me cry so hard. Too many surprises and too much emotion. Romance, comedy, tragedy and war. When i first started i thought i would give up somewhere (considering giving up on drama was normal for me). But this drama never fail to bring me to next episodes. Climax after climax.

I love how all the characters with their wisdoms in whatever they're doing. The way they interact with each other feels real and so close. And, of course, the chemistry between Nan Jun and Nv Jun, and all the other characters that made this story so alive. Zhe yao.

I didn't expect to get so hooked on Zhe Yao, but this drama completely exceeded my expectations. The storyline is incredibly well-paced - emotional, intense, and filled with just the right amount of tension and warmth. It's one of those rare historical dramas where the plot keeps evolving without dragging or feeling repetitive.

The acting is another standout. The leads have amazing chemistry, and both deliver such layered, believable performances. You can really feel the characters' growth and internal struggles. Even the supporting cast is strong, funny and on point.

Visually, the production is beautiful. The costumes, sets, and cinematography are all top-notch, but what really pulled me in was the emotional depth and how vivid each scene felt. The relationships feel real, the stakes are high, and the emotional beats hit hard. Definitely worth watching if you're looking for a historical drama with substance and heart.

I think the best way to define this drama is that it does what its supposed to, nothing less and... nothing more.

I'll start by saying that they did the whole enemies to lovers thing really well, in the sense that you completely understand the animosity between them but you also get to see and understand how their relationship is repaired and deepened.

I also think the supporting characters were all pretty interesting with defining personalities and their own motivations that tied in well with the story. This made every scene worth watching.

I do think the romance was lacking, I feel like they held off on it till the tail end then seemed to rush through it.

All in all, I think this show is really worth watching, you won't regret it. And a quick shout out to the leading actors. The female lead really gave an outstanding performance and the male lead wasn't far behind, I could really see how much he has improved.

For a long time, I have not seen a good historical film like this, I am a fairly fastidious person when watching Chinese movies, especially the historical films related to the battlefield. Right from the first impression, the film attracted me with the beauty of the main actress and a masculine drawing of the main actor with a story that was not too new but impressive enough and detailed details I was bored, I watched the movie continuously when I just aired. Normally, Chinese historical films will have quite ridiculous and complex details that it is romantic, making me feel offended my intelligence, but this film solves very good and reasonable situations.
