Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom

A wonderful fantasy romance drama. They're delivering the story with beautifully, captivating, fascinating and romantic. All the settings and outfits were described very beautifully into the screen, it seems very magical and heavenly. Kudos for the main cast to portray their roles perfectly (Mark Chao and Yang Mi) and have an excellent chemistry. The OST and instrumental music blend perfectly into every scenes and i think TMOPB has the best romantic ending ever of Chinese drama.

How can one actress portrait a vulnerable but passionately loved woman, (that we root for) in one section of the story, and then wooden puppet treated with polite indifference in other part? And make us feel in accord? I started paying attention when I rewatched this series. Main actors act not only with eyes, but with posture. They make us believe in those emotions. They have a chameleon-like instincts about their respective roles. Which also means that the script gave them sustenance they could work with. Otherall, what a fantastic introduction to genre I did not know it existed! I have read comment recommending this production to people favouring chinese drama. I think that the series speaks to variety of cultures, and about abundance of universal sentiments. There is compassion, honor, rebelion, obsession, hope, resignation, depth, love, depression, anger. And somehow: characters honesty toward their own feelings, versus just response to the plot. This is satisfying truly above and beyond Hollywood production, which by comparison seem "rushed before cancellation" and never developed with fulfillment in mind. Downton Abbey or British costume dramas are closest watcheable comparison. Give this series a serious try. Expect to spend a little time on it.

In the spring of three years ago I started watching "Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom".

Honestly at first, I was not impressed by the poster, but the more I watched it, the more I liked it. Mark Chao was so outstanding, just like Ye Hua from the story came out, but also much better than the story. Mark Chao played two roles: Mo Yuan and Ye Hua, very subtle, not to be confused with each other. Mi Yang also performed very well: The 17th disciple was young and naughty, Su Su was innocent and sincere, Bai Qian was beautiful and generous. The other actors also work seriously. Beautiful cast, suitable for the role. The script is solid. Great soundtrack... The drama is seamless from beginning to end, there is sadness, joy, sorrow, and finally burst into happiness. The happy ending for the main couple, the open ending for the extra couple, and the sad ending for the other couple... will make nostalgic forever. In short, the drama is very great.

I will continue to watch it and be sobbing along with the stories of the characters in it.

I haven't watched China drama for quite a long time. Usually being turned off by the longgggg episodes and draggy storyline. This drama was highly recommended by friends therefore I decided to give it a try. I was extremely impressed with it and did not regret the time spent on it. Storyline was good with some mystery in the beginning. Actress Yang Mi did an amazing job portraying a few characters. There are many touching moments between the 2 main casts with great chemistry. Definitely a drama worth watching, the best drama i have watched over these past few years.

Frankly yet another great epic from Chinese Theater. Without giving the game away, it involves essentially two lovers who live three lives in different stages/ages. I simply adore these legends and plays from many centuries ago, wonderful acting, script and sets, clothing and mythological creatures.

If you have also seen 'Legend of White Snake', the storyline is (too me) along the same type of line. Boy meets girl, falls in love; much hardship occurs - and all's well at the very end.

I watch these great stories on Netflix, with subtitles, but like to turn the sound up so I can hear the Mandarin (I presume) speech. Without understanding, I can detect the variations of happy/sad tomes and so forth.

Watching novella's from different countries (China, Spain, Mexico, Colombia, etc) gives me an in-look to the soul and culture of them.

One thing I've noticed in many China based tales, is that there is usually a 'spoiler' - a female who falls for the same guy as the main actress, then will literally, lie, cheat, steal, connive, frame and harm her - all out of jealousy. Don't know if that is the norm, or just for the sake of a story.

Anyway, I'll leave it up to native Chinese speakers and so forth to fill in the blanks, but will just conclude by saying that I heartily recommend it.
