warm kind-hearted drama that you can finish without binge-watching

What I really liked about this drama is that there have not been those addictive cliffhangers and plot twists, that make you binge watch for nights in a row. (Which makes it so much healthier to watch). At the same time, you won't get bored watching it either. I've been looking for this kind of drama for quite some time... because usually, it's either just mission impossible to watch less than 5 episodes in a row or just plain boring... Here we have the golden middle plus the value of the drama is not in sudden unexpected twists but in a quality story and quality atmosphere.

It opens up the world of show biz in China in a cute, warm-hearted and entertaining manner. ( I personally found out a lot of things I had no idea about before. ) It has some sad and funny moments, and a lot of real issues covered. This drama left me with warm and comfy feelings every time I watched it.

The main story of an unrecognised struggling artist, who find a way to develop himself, his art and become the "brightest star" was developed really well. As well as the main love story of an "unimportant" ordinary but caring girl with an arrogant "star" guy. The chemistry between both characters is so good, that you'd want to watch this drama just to see/ feel that chemistry again and again in each episode. To tell the honest truth, I didn't expect Z Tao to be a good actor, but surprisingly he is. ( And to my taste much better actor than a singer, sorry fans) About Zhanice Wu, well you either get annoyed with her or love her. If you usually love her then you're lucky this time as well. Me, personally, she always annoys a bit(( but here her character is quite bearable, and all in all combined with well thought-out plot, good chemistry btw main characters and good work of other actors, you don't pay attention to her annoyance that much.

To sum up, I would recommend this drama that is pleasant to watch in a healthy way (without binge-watching)
