Lang ya bang

Well, I do not know how to express my feeling towards this TV drama. I just know that even after the second time of watching it, I was still moved deeply. Tears filled my eyes, as the music is on. I cannot get myself out of it, even after several days. I hope that it can be longer, with more episodes. It is really something that can touch my heart and my soul. This is a famous TV opera from China. I am not sure whether the audience from western world can understand the culture and spirits in it. For example, why the emperor can have more than one wife. But still, something is always in common, no matter where we are, that is friendship and love. It is great luck, if a friend of you would like to anything for you without considering the outcomes. And when you do find one, please cherish that, cos maybe someday he or she will leave like the Shu in that drama

When Several friends recommended this TV series to me, I didn't expect much at all, but I'm so happy I watched it - twice already.

I was very disappointed with Chinese history dramas in recently years - either the stories being over-exaggerated or the computer graphic was so bad that you couldn't bare watching. Nirvana in Fire saved my hope for the Chinese TV drama.

I have watched many Asian, American and European dramas - this was definitely the best one in 2015, and has been the best Chinese one in 10 years. Not going to tell you what happened but it's a very touching story packed with good acting.

This is definitely one of the best shows I've seen in my life! Speaking from someone who has watched countless US and Asian shows over the past 15 years. It is definitely a plus if you are fluent in Chinese because part of the beauty of this show lies within the writing and I especially enjoyed the concise and poetic style that the characters spoke with, but aside from that, the acting, music, costumes, story, and character development are all extremely well done, worthy of your time every second. I am currently watching it a second time, and it is even better this time around because I am able to better connect the dots from the very beginning and I must applaud the writers and directors for their incredible achievement of presenting such a complicated and emotional story in such a breathtakingly beautiful way.

The story really reminds me of the Count of Monte Cristo, but it is much more grand in scale and more noble in motivation. The suspense and logic within the story is on par with shows like Sherlock and GoT. The music is beyond perfection, every piece fits the atmosphere perfectly, similar to the level of precision found in True Detective and Hannibal. The casting is also spot on, every protagonist and every villain is portrayed with such accuracy and care, you can't help but feel that the actors are all extremely emotionally and mentally invested in their characters, which makes a fictional story that takes place 1600 years ago seem so real and intimate.

Overall, Nirvana in Fire has captured my heart in more than one way upon second viewing. It's been a really long time since a show has made me feel such a complete spectrum of emotions. I would recommend this show to anyone who likes complex, beautiful, and thought- provoking stories.

It's a complicated story. Different audiences may see different key: loyalty, trickery, friendship, love, revenge, of course, a little bit of humor.

At beginning, I was attracted by its delicate and concise dress, calm and elegant slow lives. The characters' etiquette and the gave me a feeling of release pressure. Because of this, I fantasy I can live in ancient China.

But beneath the surface of slow tempo, undercurrent was terrible. As the story go, I felt the author's unprecedented courage. Original author Hai Yan (a female author, not that famous male entrepreneur also an author named Hai Yan) seems to convey a kind of the power of justice through this ancient Chinese story. Even if only to see her conception , the story and this series' art height is far more than those similar ones . In my opinion, previous produced ancient Chinese dramas just told audience what Chinese did and what they experienced, but in this series ,it seems to want to tell audience what Chinese should do in the future for seeking justice and truth.

An authoritarian government, the struggle of the two forces, a group of people full of justice, in order to a grievance of 13 years ago,finally, the leading role spoke out stirring line: "The purpose of review the case, just for the truth!" Yes, the truth! Even authoritarian Emperor Liang (Yongdai Ding played) refused to review the case because of various reasons , but in the end, he had to kneel down in front of the truth. His final confession is based on the goodness of human nature, I think it is the return of the family emotion cause. This kind of mood generated long before Mei Changsu (Ge Hu played) last stood in front of him. The most touching in this paragraph give me a chance to reflect: confession is the base of exposing truth and maybe result in seeking justice.

Of course, the process of seeking justice may be a very long time such as 13 years in this series, it takes patience, perseverance, teamwork and wisdom. The power of justice will be successful finally.

If you never experience watching the best TV drama, Nirvana in Fire is really the only thing you are looking for. It's all about revenge, deep critical thinking, amazing strategy, bromance , martial art, justice, romance, costume, loyalty,..., & historical period drama. The whole series is very very very brilliant & most reasonable. You can't even guess what going on. You will feel you yourself are so brainless. Moreover, you will experience what you never feel before. All I can say it's like breathless, addicted, crying, laughing, heart breaking,.... The cinematography is amazing. The costume is so beautiful. Not to mention actor performance. They are so talent. Not only the lead actors, everyone is great. It's so hard to not fall in love with the lead role actor. Nirvana in Fire won't give you a chance of boring. You probably feel uneasy on it first episode but believe me if you can pass it you will be unable to withdraw from your seat. Plese! don't miss it. It's really everything you can describe as the best TV drama you have ever seen.
