At this point, she had two things to do: survive in an unknown land and find a way back home. Soon, she encountered the Pottery Master, who explained the situation she was currently facing. However, her circumstances became worse when the master saw her killing one of the spies, though accidentally. Believing she is one of the spies, the master decides to keep a close tab on her.

The Feel-Good Part
The short duration of the episodes makes the viewers curious about the continuity of the story. The sweet yet stubborn chemistry between the lead pair, the beautiful locations, the stunning backdrop of the story, and an apt picturization of the bygone era make this series worthwhile and a treat to watch.
The Disappointing Factor
The plot of the series feels cliched at times which adds to the lack of interest among the viewers. The shift from the present to the Tian Shi kingdom’s era felt rushed and abrupt. The makers missed their mark in making it more convinced and larger-than-life. Additionally, the series’ final episode felt wacky and rushed. Therefore, it could have been avoided.
