San sheng san shi shi li tao hua (2017)
One of the best dramas I've watched
This is one of my favorite dramas ever! The story is amazing, especially the romance between the lead characters. Mark Chao and Yang Mi are both beautiful and masterful in their roles as the Crown Prince of the Nine Heavens and the Queen of the Qing Qiu clan, as well as the other characters they played in the series.
Not used to watching long dramas, I had planned on skipping scenes when I first watched this out of curiosity for why it is the most watched drama series with over 50 billion views. Not only was I able to finish the 58 episodes without skipping scenes, but I re-watched the whole series and still keep on re-watching some scenes! Yes, it is that good!

The most overrated kdrama ever!
This has got to be the most overrated kdrama ever. It's okay but definitely not better than other kdramas that have lower ratings like Crash Landing On You, Descendants of the Sun and Guardian: The Lonely and Great God (Goblin). It glamorizes mental illness, condones sexual harassment, has hammed acting and an unbelievable storyline for a villain.
He li hua ting (2019)
Spectacular and gripping saga
'Love this drama! Luo Jin should have swept all best actor awards with his superb performance of such a complex character. His crown prince is tortured, jovial, wise, rash, cunning, naive, sweet, romantic, but always engrossing to watch. The other performers don't disappoint either. The cinematography is breathtaking. The background music by Roc Chen is as sublime as those by John Williams, John Barry and Hans Zimmer. The political machinations show how injustice happens when those in power are more concerned about their vested interests than doing what is right. This made me wish I speak Mandarin as I think some bits of the story are lost in translation. It's worth staying up nights for.
