Just an okay drama.

I chanced upon this drama and yup, I decided to watch it after reading the excellent reviews shared.

However, I was kind of disappointed with this show as I have definitely watched better dramas than this.

I’m going to share my honest review with my frank thoughts and feelings.

Watch because:
- Easy and mindless show with very little angst.
- Leads are easy on the eyes.
- I don’t find the male lead particularly handsome but he is tall and young and well-built.
- The female lead grows on you and as you watch, she seems to become more attractive.
- The main songs in this show are sung by excellent female singers irl with powerful vocals; I really enjoyed listening to the songs and I’m listening to the OST!
- Ending is quite happy.

But,
- there isn’t much plot or suspense.
- the other actors and actresses are kind of annoying especially the ‘second’ female lead of sorts called Ma Shan Shan in the show; she was, to me, insufferable because she was totally trapped in the past due to a pointless past relationship that didn’t make sense to me at all. Get out of the rut already! She was a pain to watch and she wasn’t attractive either.
- some parts of the show did not make sense to me: the female lead is a big star but there are hardly any paparazzi.
- the online game that they play in the show isn’t exciting and is honestly, quite a bore to watch them in the game.

On the whole, I’d give it a max score of 7.5/10. My partner says that 7/10 is the max he’d give.
There are other much better shows with more exciting storylines.
Tip/ Advice - watch this on 1.25 speed.
