Da feng da geng ren

This is the first time I have given a TV show a ten rating. I enjoyed this show so much. I really hope there is a season two and it comes very quickly. They said there would be a season 2 but sometimes things don't work out in tv land. Dylan Wang was perfect for the role ( I can watch him swing his hair around and dance all night long!) and the supporting cast was excellent. It had the best combination of humor (both physical and verbal) and heartfelt drama. I wanted the potential romances to pick up a little bit but perhaps that will happen in season 2. This is a must watch TV show. Sit back and enjoy.

*Guardian of the Dafeng* is a standout show, especially thanks to Dylan Wang's incredible acting. He brings a perfect balance of intensity and charm to his role, effortlessly switching between action-packed hero moments and lighthearted comedic scenes. His performance truly anchors the show, making every emotional and dramatic scene feel genuine. The series itself feels like a Chinese ancient Marvel-like, blending epic heroism with supernatural battles, while adding clever comedic twists that keep the tone fresh and fun. It's a thrilling, yet entertaining ride, and Dylan Wang's talent is undoubtedly a highlight.

This drama is top entertainment. It has comedy, mystery, action, romance, politics, fantasy, spiritual cultivation, brotherhood and family love. All of these elements are fused together in a delightful story of a young, intelligent, hard-working and high-EQ sales manager Yang Ling (Dylan Wang), who finds himself in the ancient kingdom of Dafeng, inhabiting the persona of an orphan named Xu Qi An. Using his modern knowledge to solve cases, he rises from a lowly constable job to a position in a prestigious group called the Guardians. He even gains the fancy of a royal princess played by Tian Xi Wei.

Weeks before this drama aired, black marketing accounts and paid trolls on Chinese social media started maligning it and the main lead. Why? Because in the dirty and corrupt Chinese Entertainment industry, bullies don't want a grassroots-backed actor like Dylan Wang, who didn't come from money and doesn't have powerful backers, taking projects away from power-backed actors, especially the highly coveted role of the main character of a hugely popular novel on which the drama was based.

Due to the popularity of Dylan and the novel, GOTD still topped domestic viewership charts despite the smear campaign. However, some charts susceptible to black marketing and shadow-banning could not escape the multi-million rmb worth of smear campaign. Nevertheless, the drama gained solid footing after more and more viewers realized its first-rate quality. What impressed many viewers most was the phenomenal acting Dylan Wang brought to the table. This drama proved his acting talent that his bullies keep trying hard to undermine.

It is hoped that cdrama viewers have been made aware of the prevalence of black marketing in social media and will not be so easily swayed by negative press about artists and dramas in the future.

I've just finished the series and already miss the characters. Blending multiple genres, the show delivers a rollercoaster of emotions across its 40 episodes. At its heart is Yang Lin, a hilariously charismatic modern man thrust into the body of Xu Qi'an, navigating an ancient world filled with murder mysteries, political intrigue, and fantasy elements. The early episodes are a riot of slapstick and subversive humor, at times reminiscent of the comedic style of 90s HK films, sharply contrasting with the political maneuvers and xuanhuan themes that ground the narrative. As the plot deepens, humor gives way to heartfelt drama, culminating in a profoundly emotional finale where Xu Qi'an embraces his newfound family, friends, responsibilities, and personal growth. This progression from lighthearted comedy to a poignant crescendo makes the series unforgettable.

While there are some issues with pacing and several romance plotlines that dragged on, the cast's top-tier performances more than compensate. The ever dependable Liu Yijun shines in his role as a surrogate father figure to the protagonist, while Feng Hui's portrayal of Zheng Xinghuai is nothing short of phenomenal. Dylan Wang anchors the show masterfully, showcasing impeccable comedic timing, emotive depth, and raw intensity, particularly in the later episodes. It's a series I'll likely revisit in a few years.

The show is totally underrated... it's unique plot from other cdramas... the creativity.. the thrill the twists. Not a single boring episode. With Dylan wang making the show even more interesting.. give the show its flowers.. honestly a 7 is not it'sworth. The writer aced it its totally a 100000/10. Best show ever. And the ending too. Didn't expect that at all. Yall need to watch it to see how good it is. This show deserves a grammy. To the writer, amazing job. Netflix needs amazing shows like this. Eagerly waiting for part 2. The foundation is well set now we're waiting for the writer to blow our minds in part 2..
