This drama left me in two minds. I really don’t know how to score it. It started wonderfully. The storyline is an interesting one, unique in that sense. The acting was good but it felt like the characters didn’t really develop until the last 10 episodes or so. But at that time, it felt like the producers were trying to milk and drag the drama out. There was a fair bit of “filled in” moments where the focus was on things totally not important to the storyline. The OST, I felt, was okay but there were times the music didn’t add much to the production, especially the English song. The lyric just didn’t match the mood. Though loved the song from Jade Cheng.
In saying all that, Jade Cheng was great. Love her performance; entertaining to watch. The relationship between Ji Xiao and Bing and Estelle Chen’s characters was gorgeous and humorous to watch as it bloomed. Xuan Lu is divine to watch, she seriously steals the scene every time she appears. I have said it before and will say it again, she is an underrated actress; that smile and the cheeky looks are priceless.
The last scene pulled all the emotional strings. If you didn’t feel anything after watching it, please check if you still have a pulse. Love it.
Overall, it was too bad, especially for some light entertainment watching.
