Wu dong qian kun

The story does take a while to coalesce. One of the issues is that the actor, Yang Yang, looks ill and is underweight in the first ten episodes. After the first ten though our reluctant hero begins to accept his fate and rise to it. (Yang Yang also appears to regain a few pounds and his color is restored.) From episode twelve on it is an epic, thrilling and romantic telling of a young man who walks the path of his destiny. He is accompanied and aided by strong female and male companions. The trivia says this is based on Xianxia, a genre of Chinese fantasy heavily inspired by Chinese Mythology. As an American, I would guess that our great teacher of myth, the late Joseph Campbell, would have liked this production.

Story flow drags too long and monotonous. Many unnecessary conversations,long winded boring scenes implemented in between each climax. Cgi effects satisfied.

How should I put it..not a love at first sight much to do with somewhat crass editing but the story grows on you with a heart wrenching ending in Season 1. A lot of life long lessons and pains in the path of growing up, peppered with a bit of humor, mystery, danger and adventure. And love and magic !!! Awesome special effects too. Can't take my eyes off Yang Yang he's such a charismatic actor. All in all this is a great watch ! Can't wait for season 2!!!

I have just gotten into Wuxia and I watched who rules the world with Yang Yang and loved him. So I looked for something else he was in that would be similar. I am not a fan of fantasy really ( tho I loved Merlin) there was as extreme of an element. None the less I'm surprised this has only 13 reviews? Maybe I'll be lucky 14? Who knew Yang Yang could be so funny after seeing how serious he was in Who rules the world tho I loved" black foxy" and this character is closer t him. I don't like how goofy he is ( reminds me of one of the brothers in handsome brothers). I've watched about 19 episodes thus far so I must like it! Lol. I'll update when I'm finished if needed.

This drama having full of passionate and hardwork from the actors and productions. I would like to say the special effects and scenes impressed me. You will feel WOW on their acting skill, it doesn't dull and boring, enjoy the fun and laughing a lot because of "Lin Dong". Last but not least, the dress code/tailoring must be praised. I would recommend to watch this drama😄 there is a lot of details waiting for you to find.
