A Great but frustrating Season 1
25 January 2019
Before I say anything about this series, I should tell you all that I have already read the book before watching the series. So I knew the whole story even before starting the first episode and by the way..... the book is awesome. There are some little changes here and there from the book because of some author's plagiarize controversy but even then I instantly fell in love with the drama series. Zhao Liying was amazing in bringing 'The valiant General of Xiuli Army' character to life. Lin Gengxin was the perfect fit for the role of 'The cold and distant yet kind and warm' young master of the Yuwen manor. I knew beforehand that there will be some hardships for our both lead characters in the beginning but I also knew that the good times will come. So I waited and waited for 56 episodes but the good times never came. They ended the series right before when she started to realize that she loves him more than anything in this world. I had to say the Ice Lake scene at the end is just as amazing as it depicted in the book. I had goosebumps watching that scenes come to life. For those who haven't read the book, I don't know how they felt with the cliffhanger ending but for those who have read the book, I can surely say that it's frustrating. Give us the Second season with the same cast as soon aspossible please.........That's all I have to say for now.
