Although this is 40 episodes. I binge watched this until the end. The costumes. The story. The development of the characters. The chemistry between the actors. The script. The scenery. Also very nice capturing of the landschap. Thats why I love these kind of Asian drama's. They have such attention for details. Hollywood needs to learn from this.
The FL did an amazing job. I loved her whole journey. And she did do as she promised. Very smart. I love a strong FM.
They have pretty dramatic scenes but often switched with some lighthearted scenes. Like with her dramatically nephew of her banter with the Duke Su. So funny. I wished for more funny scenes. But I guess this drama is to serious and the themes are to serious for a lot of banter.
The character of the husband Shen keeps you guessing. His character was the hardest to understand. Just the depth of his personality. Just the why? I still don't understand. Is he good? Has he become bad? Does he really love her? But very entertaining.
Duke Su had also great character development. From cold to hot for Jiang Li. Love their story. I hate that they send him off " to fight" He is way to cunning and important to go fighting.
The end could have been better. But after 40 episodes I can only hope that Duke Su 'like always' keeps his promises.
I can't accept any other truth.
