As was its predecessor, ETERNAL LOVE, the feel good elements of this series is never lacking. You would marvel at the tenderness and love the main leads each shower the other.

Before I get carried away though, let me just express how amazingly good the male lead actor looks with his long locks of white hair and his nonchalant, devil-may-care demeanor. He seems idle and uncaring but he actually holds the weight of the world upon his shoulder. Vengo Gas has truly given this character considerable justice. I don't think anyone else can pull off that regal countenance he exudes effortlessly as Emperor Dong Hua.

The female lead Bai Feng Jiu portrayed by Dilraba Dilmurat is as cute and charming as one can get. Being a young, doted future monarch of their kingdom, she is vivacious and playful and always gets into trouble. However, she is matured enough to repay kindness and pick herself up after every fall.

Such a love story that started with the compulsion to repay kindness seems like an unending circle of gratitude which is actually good in itself. However, when it turns into deep affection bordering on obsessiveness, things start to crumble. No matter how good the intention is, when we are not supposed to interfere and still do, fate will not spare us.

And so this is how our story Eternal Love of Dream repeats itself.

Nonetheless, with all these interesting gods and goddesses plus demons and spirit animals in the mix make up very entertaining episodes. Maybe it's just the child in me but I truly relish anything supernatural and magical. And I'm sure there are those of you who feel the same.

It is also mind-boggling to think that if there's some truth to these stories, then we might also be gods and goddesses sent on earth to experience great loss so we can grow more powerful upon going back to the heavens. Immortals could be among us, sharing our homes and our lives to assist us in our evolution. When you're in the world of deities, anything is simply possible.

Aside from our main lead, there are also other love stories within this story. Different circumstances, various biases, but all is fair in love, devotion and steadfastness.

Family values and unquestionable support is evident from start to finish. Friendships found and cherished and always, gratitude and love. This one will be worth your time for sure. Watch, enjoy and experience the wonder of the supernatural.
