In addition to receiving a lot of praise, it has also made more people aware of and started to like Dunhuang costumes.

An Insight into the Hottest Cdramas of the First Half of 2023
As the first half of 2023 draws to a close, various Chinese video platform' top-performing drama statistics have been released. According to the data collected, there have been changes in audience preferences and creative directions within the industry.

After "The Knockout", the second-highest-ranked series was Xuanhuan cdrama "Till The End Of The Moon," with a total view count of 2.71 billion. So far this year, only “The Knockout” has exceeded three billion views during its initial broadcast period; none have reached three billion or more since then. Of course, some of the highly popular works with limited airplay are closely related to the short number of episodes.

Whether it is a lover who finally gets married, or a tragedy caused by a wrong marriage, it can add a lot to the drama. For example, Yang Chaoyue's look, wearing a lot of gold jewelry, beads and velvet flowers as decoration.
