Till the End of the Moon, starring Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu, premiered on streaming platform Youku in early April.
Since its release, the show has become a trending topic on Chinese social media and sparked discussions about its artistic portrayal of Chinese mythology and cultural heritage.
Based on images in the ancient murals, the drama's makeup, costume design and settings feature a distinctive and gorgeous Dunhuang style.
The series has also been broadcast in many other countries, sparking an enthusiasm for Chinese culture among foreign viewers.
The series centers on an immortal who travels 500 years back in time to prevent the rise of the demon god's dark power. Instead, they fall in love with each other and the doomed romance lasts across three lifetimes.
Elements such as the flying Apsaras and mural patterns from the Mogao Caves, the vibrant colors of the unique landscape of the Danxia landform, and Yingluo accessories, which originated from cultural exchanges along the ancient Silk Road, have all contributed to the show's appeal.
These cultural elements also play an important role in advancing the show's narrative. For example, the story draws inspiration from the Shibi Jataka grotto in Mogao Grottoes No.254, which depicts a previous incarnation of Sakyamuni as King Shibi, who offered his flesh to save a pigeon from a falcon. The show also incorporates war scenes inspired by China's 12 Earthly Branches ordering system.
Coming back here after watching episode 36 and let me just say this drama is so epic.
The love and angst, the CGI, the complex story, the world building (one of the best ever imo), the acting of ALL cast but especially Luo Yunxi, just wow. You won't be disappointed future viewers. Actually this drama is too short! First time ever I wished a cdrama lasted longer than 50\60 episodes. Xanxia drama directors, take note, this is how you make a memorable xanxia!!
It just the first episode and it’s already serving!!! Till the End of the Moon is the definition of a XianXia drama!!! I mean the cast, costumes, CGI and OST is absolute perfection!!!
This maid or whatever helper girl is so cute and nice! she isn't annoying and doesn't ask useless questions, is actually willing to play along, I love her.
女主以及其他的女配都很好很可爱!女主一点都不烦人,也不会问无脑的问题,愿意和人合作交往,我喜欢她!
This is one of the most intense and addicting dramas I have ever watched. Tantai Jin will forever be one of my most favourite characters of all time.
这是我看过最紧张最上瘾的一部剧。澹台烬永远都会是我最喜欢的角色之一!
I love these two together. They have such great on-screen chemistry.
