Return of Happiness (2015)

First I do not recommend anyone to watch this series in its entirety.
The Good: The main actors playing Yu You Wei (li Qin) and Han Ming (Ron Ng) had some really cute, sweet and heart wrenching moments. I really like strong leading ladies, and this drama definitely had one. Yu You Wei had a strong personality but was a well rounded The acting in this drama from the whole cast was good on a whole and you really believed their performances. The costumes and wardrobes were cool, the water scenes were pretty, and the ending was nice.
The Bad: the story line was awful. I think the writers quit around episode 20 and the staff figured they could keep the same storyline circulating for another 20 episodes. This isn’t the first prince/pauper drama I have watched but this is the first that has drug the concept on for 48 episodes! The antagonists in the story are too plentiful, have senseless reasons for their actions and throughout all of the episodes the main character is tormented. Although the story was awful, the initial concept and planning was good so I thought this would be a really good drama at first.
Bottom Line: This drama was riddled with evil plans, deceit, amnesia, a super long and repetitive story line, non developed characters and all of the drama clichés you have come to love/hate. I was addicted to the first 10 episodes, anticipated episodes 11-15, and then started to have to push through the drama. I fast-forwarded and skipped my way through to the last episode. I was not happy with the way they beat the main character down with “life” events into a completely different person so I do not recommend this drama. I especially do not recommend this drama for people who have to finish a drama, or to people who are not looking for a serious drama. To be honest I really wish I had back those hours of my life!!

OMG, this was sooooooo bad, i couldn’t even laugh about it or just simply brush it off like I do sometimes with my guilty pleasures…
The whole story had been done and redone, but no sense in the writing : it seems the writers could absolutely not fit logic in this, such as the fact that so many people would be tricked by the switching of two little girls that no one would know for 20 years except the birth mom, but no one would listen to her, the fact that amnesia has conveniently hit real heiress just when her aunt decides to switch little girls for basically no reason…
Not to mention the fact that it’s waaaaaaaaay too long for what this is, that this goes around in circles, and is full of plenty of frustrating situations, such as the fact that many characters would unfairly and stupidly blame the female lead for things that had absolutely nothing to do with her
Wow, I’m a huge fan of Li Qin but even she couldn’t save this whole mess
