This drama had been postponed from being shown at least a couple of times.
Apparently the story is based on a BL manhwa novel by Han Lu. Of course the BL will be transposed into a bromance in this drama.
The story is about love of country and protecting it at all cost.
Chong Liming and Ah Li both joined the rigorous training of the Yan Shi Fan to become soldiers whose raison d’etre is to defend the palace during the Qing Dynasty.
