I personally think this drama is highly overrated. The script is ridiculous in its extremities, and while I know most people don't watch dramas because of their closeness to reality, this was just a little much.

There was never a main plot or driving force. Mostly it seemed like the writers were just trying to find as many ways as possible for our leads to be miserable. Honestly, I've never seen so many psychotic antagonists in my life. Like everyone was LEGIT crazy. And they just kept coming out of nowhere, showing up randomly.

Character development was also incredibly flawed when it came to side characters. Their relationships had little to no foundation and often went unexplained. Somehow in a matter of minutes sworn-enemies began acting like life-long friends and the audience was just forced to accept it.

This drama's only strong point was its OTP and having actors like Barbie and Zhou be able to convincingly sell the characters. Even though I went throughout this entire drama scratching my head wondering how much worse it could become, I couldn't stop watching this drama for the sole reason that I loved seeing these two actors on screen together. Their chemistry is fabulous and it's easy to see how they began dating after the drama.

While Mars was definitely entertaining at times, and definitely solid when it came to romance, the script was a HOT MESS, and for that reason I gave it a low rating.

I was hesitant to watch this drama because the drama had so many mixed reviews. And now that I've completed it I understand why. The plot is often frustrating, nonsensical, and just unrealistic. (Although I didn't find it slow as many others did. Definitely mellow however.) That being said, what kept me watching was the chemistry between two leads. It truly gave me butterflies, and I felt like I was falling in love with them. Also the OSTs for this drama are amazing. They are songs you'll continue to listen to even after you're done watching.

As far a re-watch value, you'll probably only go back to watch your favorite scenes.
