COMMENT
I loved it. I don't know what else I can say, LOL. There's no romance because of China's ban but the little bit of bromance was good enough for me. It would be great if we had more but I enjoyed this show nevertheless.
I found this show randomly and decided to give it a shot. I love historical shows, especially ones on real life events. This really got me reading on China's history around communism. It also got me to read the novel 'Till Death Do Us Part' which is not based off the same story, just has a similar name, happens to be a BL as well as based off the same time period. Weird, I know.
Anyways, really loved this show... still want to read the books and I'm super happy with the ending. Most BL or should I say bromance drama's from China ends with a sad ending for our 'couple', cough, 'friends'. This show had a great ending though.
