Really good, couldn't stop binge watching it. I am disappointed that they stopped making it. Seemed like it ended abruptly ):

ICE FANTASY (Huànchéng) (2016) is a great epic fantasy C-drama revolving around Prince Ka Suo of the Ice Tribe and the events that take place after his coming of age ceremony. Along with his younger brother Ying Kong Shi, Ka Suo is forced to flee his kingdom and go into hiding in order to protect those he loves. They both embark on a quest to save the realms from the Fire Tribe, and get help from the Mortal Realms guardian named Li Luo, who devotes herself in service to Prince Ka Suo. They seek to obtain ice crystals from six tribes in order to restore the Ice Wall, so that the Ice Tribe can be saved and Fire Tribe repelled.

Although this story is filled with fantastical realms, characters and creatures, epic storylines, adventure and drama, gorgeous costumes and music, it also revolves around the deep love and loyalty that two brothers share. I find this fact to be very pivotal and moving. Ka Suo and Ying Kong Shi go on an adventure to save the Immortal and Mortal Realms and restore the Ice Tribe. I loved so many characters in this series. They all grow on you and gradually become more complex.

The only reason I'm rating it 8 stars is mainly because of some occasional cheesiness (mostly because of the overacting of the Fire King) and because it wasn't the absolute best C-drama series I've watched. It was very good though. No regrets. This series was over all really good, the visuals, costumes and realms were really stunning. I really enjoyed this drama, and so many of the characters, such as Ka Suo, Ying Kong Shi, Li Luo, Yan Da etc. This series features some really strong female heroines and villains. Love. Overall it was a great watch.

It is definitely fantasy. I loved it. I found the costumes and sets amazing. There was a wonderful attention to detail in the costumes. Yes there were holes in the plots but the actors were superb. The storyline was unusual. Very well made. Would highly recommend it. I watched every single episode.

I loved the show for what it was. They definitely invested most of their money in costumes. I enjoyed it but hate the way it ended so abruptly. Since IMDB doesn't show an end year, I wonder if there are more episodes somewhere else.

One of my favourite dramas just because is unique, the story, the costumes, the colour all is out of the world a real fantasy. The plots keep you engage and you finish loving the brothers and Wanda story that l think they add and is not from the books for what l read. That means even the screenwriters where good enough to keep and interesting plot going on. Is a shame the second season is so bad you can see the difference in the writers a lot more loose and not following what makes the 1st season great.
