Reception[]
After airing, the series received favorable reviews. Contemporary TV commented "The drama series and Tian Sufei explores times aesthetics."[2] Young Writer wrote "Though Tian Sufei's life, the show is a refraction of history" and "differ from the other female character in mainland shows, she chose the man she love, obey the leader's order".[3] Movie Review described the series "From 1940s-1980s, Tian Sufei's fate grabs audience's heart."[4] Popular Art praised Zhao, "For her remarkable performance, Zhao Wei portrays Tian Sufei, the most impressive character since the Little Swallow ."[5]
Yan Geling said "Zhao did a terrific job. I was moved to tears watching the episode in which Sufei was divorcing her husband, she acted really marvelous and beautiful. The role was very challenging as Sufei was a lot more mature than Zhao's real age, yet her performance is so accurate which is quite extraordinary.[6]
