Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is a remake of a 2005 Hong Kong film, but expanded into an epic that lets the time-travel premise actually breathe across 50 episodes instead of rushing.
The series became a massive hit in China partly because it turned notoriously cruel historical figure Zhao Gao into a sympathetic, tragic villain you root for until you remember what he actually did.
