Zang Hai Zhuan

I don't know when was the last time I got so addicted to a drama like I am doing now. I mean I know the director is excellent, the actors and even the background story but watching it still far exceeded my expectations. If I say it's a masterpiece, I wouldn't be exaggerating. I've watched 10 episodes and each one makes me want to see the next one so much. So much has happened and this is just the beginning. I'm really excited for what's left. I still can't say I fully know the main characters, whether it's Zang Hai, the Marquis, or even Xiang Antu. They're all playing off each other. Also, in the confrontations between Zang Hai and the Marquis, I can't help but tense up in every scene they have together. They're both pretending in front of each other. I must say that I still underestimate the Marquis. His actions are really unpredictable and shocking. I know it's too early to say this, but it will be a long time before I find a drama this good.

Legend of Zheng Hai is a beautifully crafted revenge story with excellent acting skills, exquisite set designs, costumes and makeup.

Xiao Zhan's acting sets the pace and mood of the show and creates just the right emotion the audience needs to be in. He is truly talented. I have only seen him in Untamed as Wei Wuxian before and was afraid Zhang Hai would remind me of that, but I have to acknowledge that Xiao Zhan is truly remarkable in his craft and very easy on the eyes!

The revenge story at times seems to drag especially in episodes 12 & 13 but picks up again in episode 14 but with such a long show this appears to be normal that some episodes may seem disjoint.

It is so far the best drama for summer viewing with just the right elements of story, suspense, and intrigue.

Kudos to all the actors, directors and producers!

Much love, always.

This is so far one of the best c-dramas. I hope they don't go into the regular rabbit hole and ruin it in later episodes.

The plot is superb and delivered exquisitely. Already in episode one you feel for the main character and you will also want to take part in the revenge. And mind me - the first episode has child actors who bring so much emotion and good acting at such a young age.

The ML delivers top notch acting, you can feel all his emotions and pain - it may be just a flickr of the eyes, or a tremble of the lips and you know in your heart what is portrayed. Episode 7 just ripped my heart - it was so emotionally loaded, I had to stare in the void for 20 minutes to recover.

All actors are doing an incredible job in delivering their characters. Up until now I haven't see a weak performance, be it from the experienced actors or from the younger ones.

And you can see that the director knows what he's doing by the bone - top visuals, top acting, top delivery. Everything is calculated to perfection.

My only complain is about the age of the characters, I just can't see them as the age the plot is stating. The ML should be 20, but he looks 30. One other character was supposed to be 36 but he's more like 50. But let's give it to the time period where people used to look older than the same age in modern times.

Zang Hai himself is a powerful and unforgettable character-resilient, mysterious, and endlessly compelling. The show is brilliantly crafted, with stunning visuals and smart storytelling that keeps you hooked. Every episode is packed with twists, suspense, and emotional depth. Just when you think you know what's coming, the plot takes a sharp turn. The pacing is tight, the writing is sharp, and every moment feels intentional. It's a rare blend of action, heart, and intelligence. Legends of Zang Hai is definitely a must-watch for anyone who loves epic drama, clever plotlines, and unforgettable characters.

So far I've watched 8 episodes it was incredible and intelligently made. The plot was easier to follow but it will leave you guessing

This is not a love story so the element of romance was subtle but man the chemistry of Xiao Zhan and Zhang Jingyi is so strong it'll make you wanting for more. Love their battle of wits so much ❤❤❤ I love how the FL is very clever, nor weak or a pushover.

This is male centric drama focusing on Zang Hai's path of revenge so this is gonna be your typical love story. 8 episodes into it and already exceeded my expetations

I can't wait how the story unfolds. Till then.
