PERIOD DRAMA CHINA TV
This drama has big names, a big budget and off-the-chart TV ratings but I read that despite everything, the show couldn't sustain the hype and ended on a low last week. Nevertheless, what I saw was quite good but I probably won't be devoting more time to watch the remaining episodes.
PERIOD DRAMA CHINA PLUS
To be honest, I have only seen 2 episodes of Mi Yue Zhuan plus one needlessly long trailer where you can guess most of the story without trying. In addition, the cast and crew of Zhen Huan Zhuan has also come together to re-create the magic of 2011, a masterpiece that is still touted as one of China's best historical dramas.
PERIOD DRAMA CHINA SERIES
Similar to Fan Bing Bing's 2015 hit series the Empress of China, Mi Yue Zhuan is another grand production trying to depict a woman's journey against all odds. Her endless struggles led her to become the person with the ability and willpower to command an empire.
Born as a princess but from a mother of lowly birth, Mi Yue had to fight for her right to live even as an infant. Mi Yue was destined by the heavens to rise to power.

Yet simply put, what I hope to see is more focus on martial arts rather than the other way around, which I think is something that many fantasy wuxias are lacking nowadays. I'm editing what I just wrote and mentioning realism and wuxia sounds like an oxymoron. It reminded me of Beggar King Qiao Feng when he defeated an army in Demi-gods and Semi-devils (Tian Long Ba Bu). Don't get me wrong, there was an insane amount of CGI effects but I appreciated the realism in the fighting scenes particularly in the first episode where Ge Nie battled 300 soldiers. Produced by Tangren Media, the creators of Ballad of the Desert, Chinese Paladin and other dramas in the same genre, is it any wonder that the Legend of Qin is so beautiful? It's the right mix of history and fantasy, which is right up my alley.Īction sequences are a big part of wuxia and I really liked how the CGI wasn't as in your face.
Unbeknownst to everyone, Jing Tian Ming was taken as an infant and bestowed otherworldly powers due to a conspiracy. Ge Nie, his closest friend and comrade must do everything in his power to save Jing Ke's only son Jing Tian Ming. Jing Ke died a hero after an assassination attempt at the Emperor of Qin Dynasty.
