I was looking at upcoming xianxia dramas and this was one of them. I was excited when I read the synopsis but then I realized that the female lead is the same female lead in And The Winner is Love. I think I might have to forego this drama just because of that.....too much trauma from ATWIL that can't be undo. Haha!

 

[Tofu]

I need another xianxia in my life so even if it's the same female lead from ATWIL, I guess I'll still watch. 

 

Seems like it might be airing soon -- the rumored date is January 12th.

 

[Tofu]

It's set to premiere on the 16th and it's no longer a xianxia drama.

i quite enjoyed episode 1 at viki. The translation is very slow , I am content with that @Tofu. I am watching way to many drama right now. It is kinda hard to keep up. I decided to set up a schedul when I can watch it . lol

 First episode 

A lot of things was happening and i need to rewatch it so I can come back and give my full opionion on this episode.

The acting was really good, the graphic was also good. 

WeTv is airing it in TH & VN. i tried to use vpn but no english subtitles. 

[Tofu]

@UnniSara Yay! I'm glad you're watching this! I started on the first episode but like you, I have to go back to re-watch. So many things happened in episode one, haha! I forget that with costume dramas, there are lots of characters.

Yeah, they are only available in Thai or Vietnamese. People that need English subs will have to wait for Viki. I think they are releasing 1-2 episodes during the airing days of this drama. It'll be a long watch. I'm so used to finishing a drama within 3-4 weeks. Haha!

Episode 2 

I didn’t go back to watch episode1.  Since I started watching episode 2, I am pausing and watching to get al the details. This will certainly take me a while to watch. Lol
