Legend of Fuyao

I could NOT stop watching this! From start to finish I was completely mesmerised by the story and the characters!! After watching several Chinese fantasy drama's, I must say this one is my favourite! If you're looking to find something similar, I'd recommend the Three lives three worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom! It's got Yang Mi and Mark Chao, and the chemistry between the two is also amazing! Ashes of Love is another one!

This is the kind of the series that you would watch when you are not busy doing something important. Just a little warning, If you are then don't even think about starting this series. It's damn addictive. There was not a single episode that I didn't like. It would've been perfect if they explained the ending in one more episode. That was the only drawback i could find in this series. I've been a fan of Yang Mi after seeing her work in Ten Miles Of Peach Blossom. Her chemistry with actor Ethan Juan is as amazing as it was with Mark Chao in TMOPB. She just never fails to amaze me.

Here for Yang Mi & Ethan Ruan. God both are awesomely brilliant actors and together they are just mind blowing. Their acting, their explosive chemistry & their respective characters, I just love love love. This drama is bloody awesome so far, great characters, story, plot, pacing, beautiful cinematography, aesthetically pleasing fight scenes & romance. This drama has it all, great heroine, who is smart, intelligent, uses her brains to make up her own mind, not a puppet or a damsel in distress, who just keeps fawning over the hero. She's got wit, courage, integrity and strength of character & personality. The hero is bloody awesome too, he's smart, intelligent, witty, cunning, devious, naughty, strong of both character & personality and his smile is just to die for. All the other characters are bloody awesome too .

Honestly, straight up one of the best dramas I have watched so far. It's been awhile since a drama has been able to completely grasp my attention and hook me in, Legend of Fuyao did that. Things about the plot get revealed at a very charming place in my opinion and the story itself is interesting and unique. You just fall in love with the characters !! As someone who has been watching dramas for the past two years, I REALLY HIGHLY recommend this one.

First Chinese drama that I'm hooked on. This drama has everything. I've attempted to watch several Chinese and Taiwanese dramas throughout the years and have only successfully made it through a select few. Normally they become boring or I'm turned off by the number of episodes or by the possibility of a sad ending for our leads which is the norm for a Chinese historical drama. For years I found that Korean dramas were the only dramas that satisfied me because they almost always have happy endings. This drama is different from all the others I've seen. It has action, adventure, drama, and a romance that entices viewers. On top of it all, the writers manage to sneak in moments of comedy amidst it all. The plot doesn't drag on and there are multiple storylines overarching with the main one and this makes the drama exciting. The OSTs are also beautiful and go greatly with the drama. Yang Mi's dramas never fail me and this is no exception. Her character Fuyao is strong, independent, and unlike many female characters in a historical drama like this. I hadn't watched any of Ethan Juan's dramas before, but his chemistry with Yang Mi is amazing. They make such a great couple that can really stand up for themselves, protect each other, and navigate through whatever schemes the bad guys throw at them together. This drama will have close to 70 episodes and normally I would stop watching and be turned off by the amount of episodes, but I'm eagerly awaiting new episodes every day. I've read from other comments that Ethan personally said in an interview that there will be a good ending, and I sincerely hope that this is true. This drama is a game changer and I can honestly say that it will be difficult to find another drama that will fill the void in my heart after this drama.
