Comment on "Da Zhai Men":

The story of "Dazhaimen" begins in Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty, and revolves around the historical changes of a Dazhaimen selling medicine and practicing medicine in Beijing, telling the vicissitudes of a group of people's grievances. This kind of story is common in Chinese and foreign film and television works, and it is not easy to have its own characteristics. But "Da Zhai Men" can be unconventional and tell a wonderful story, and every episode has suspense.

Da Zhai Men is quite successful in portraying characters. Everyone is not simple, and they all have their own reasons for existence. There are many characters in the play, including businessmen, doctors, princes, Baylor, Gege, eunuchs and maids. Although it is impossible for all of them to be vivid, some main characters are vivid and distinctive. Especially Bai Wen, Ying Yu, Jing Ke and Yang Jiuhong, their characters are more like relief, and other less important figures are also vivid.
