The cast:
Steve Ma Jing Tao ~ Hou Zhen (Cantonese)
Vivian Chen ~ Xiung Yu
The story:
A woman is expecting her fourth child, she really hopes that it will be a boy because all her other kids were girls and she wants to stay alive, she's the wife of one of Huang Sang's helpers.
But no it's again a girl and then she thinks of a plan, she just change the baby,but before she let her baby girl leave her she made a little rose on her back.
12 years later, the boy Hou Zhen grew up and he really is a nice guy when he went hunting with his dad he caught a white wolf but he let him go.
Ok and then the boy is older, he meets a girl and immediately he fell in love with her and she also fell in love with him, her name is Xiung Yu.
But then the emperor wants him to marry his daugther, Hou Zhen doesn't agree with that he's in love with Xiung Yu.
But his parents pushed him to do it, so he married her but he doesn't love her, anyway the princess gets very jealous and she is really mean to Xiung Yu and she tortures her.
And then Hou Zhen's fake mother saw the little rose on Xiung Yu's back and she immediately recognize it of course, but that means trouble.
The emperor says that they all cheated him and he wants to kill them all,but of course that didn't happened!
Best performance:
Of course our Steve Ma, I must say that he wasn't that good he was much better in Love is payable but that's quite a new series so I forgive him, his crying scenes were very bad.
Worst performance:
Xiung Yu, ohh how boring can a character be? She is soooo boring, well Xiung Yu was boring but Vivian did a good job.
Best scene:
When Hou Zhen married to the princess and he pretended to be drunk and he laid in the bed thinking to himself, ohhh please sun come back soon! that was funny.
Worst scene:
Ohhhh definetely the ending, well Xiung Yu died and Hou Zhen carried her away and then we see 2 white wolves walking away together, what does that mean? Why not a happy end?
Themesong:
There is one, it's quite good.
Everything together:
This is a Taiwanese series, I saw the dubbed version it was also much shorter only 20 episodes,it is a very typical Taiwanese series, crying, crying and crying, drama and romance, but well it's quite good except for the ending.
