Why watch it

Republican-era Shanghai: a novelist and a photographer who is secretly an assassin, bound together in an increasingly dangerous intimacy. Mainland-Chinese GL rarely makes it to the screen at all — this one did, found an international fanbase, and even became the subject of academic study. It holds an 8.3 on MyDramaList from 2,700+ users.
