too little content in too long of a drama.............
I'm a romance junkie, so this drama should have been a 10 within that genre, but sadly, here's what happened:
All Actors = 10
ML = 20 - for hotness
FL = 10 - for keeping the fire going
Visuals, Cinematography, Scenery, knowledge about Chinese landscapes = 20
Details about SWAT team = 10
Sizzling chemistry = 10
Steamy intimacy = 10
So what happened????
1). the story was nothing special. Even that is forgivable in a romance, however stretching it to 30 episodes is a mortal sin. Tooooo loooooonnnnngggg. Maybe they should have 2 versions of all C dramas - one for the global audience, which is about 12-16 episodes, gets to the point and keeps the drama interesting. Another version just for the local/regional audience who may enjoy this kind of length or it brings in advertising revenue.
2). the chemistry was sizzling, but rehashing scenes over and over again?? why ???
3). the second couple could have lent a breath of fresh air - but their story was poorly developed
4). that poor boy - he was mostly used as a prop, but he could have had such a nice role to play instead
5). all the parents - their roles were vague, not given proper direction, just hanging around to fill in some vacuum
So although C dramas are definitely improving with smart, independent females and sizzling chemistry, maybe tightening the story and reducing the length could increase global appeal.
