Ashes of Love yet better!

I didn't think that I would love this show as it gave off the same vibe as Ashes of Love only to find out that it is indeed related to Ashes of love.

Plot/Storyline: I love the overall plot of the show as it had stories of friendship, pain, and romance in it all entwined. I also loved the themes of sisterhood, friendship, and trauma. I felt like they could have done better with is fleshing out Yetan's trauma that she had during her childhood and how that could effect her later on in life. There was times that they could have done good with that but they missed the opportunity. Also, I couldn't stand Shao Dian's voice it was deep for like no reason and it was so distracting. On the other hand, I liked that balanced between the two sister lives as it jumped between the heavenly realm and void realm. Furthermore, how they fleshed out all the characters all the hardships they had family drama, their was no character that I was confused about.

Cast: The cast member's did awesome. I was hesitant about watching this because Chen Xing Xu was in goodbye, my princess and he was a complete menace to society in that show so I was still pissed. Nevertheless, he did amazing it was good to see him as a good person redeeming himself.

Music: All I can say is that it fit the overall concept of the show and I couldn't be any much content. Especially since Sa ding ding and Mao Buyi never fails at making us either cry or heart flutter.

In conclusion, it was a good show and I hope that we get a season 2 or we get something just as good.

Worth the Watch

I am just going to list some things that I liked/dislike and can be improve about the special episode:

1. Phayu and Pai's friendship
2. Rain and Sky's friendship
3. NC scene (Daddy scene)
4. Expanded from the series
5. Rain's Kink
6. Vacation theme - it was different than most BL special episode as it felt liked written like a normal series would be and not the characters just popping up to a theme park or something.

Dislikes:
1. Lack of content - their should have been more scene's from both couples.
2. Short - the episode was short which sucked especially since we are covering two couples.
3. Production - it wasn't bad as the series but it was just like the first half of phayu and Rain's arc where the sound was okay but it could have been better.

In conclusion, to address the elephant in the room the pricing was not worth it granted the episode could have been longer, however I do recommend the episode itself as it was good. It was a good send off for the fans and the cast members as well.

Enjoyable; needs improvement

Before I write my review their is some things I need to say and this is: This is my first time watching something written and produced by Mame and I am now aware of her "controversial" writing style.

Story/Plot: The moment that I read the novel, I noticed that this was that of a fanfiction which is literally Mame's writing style. Which I don't have an issue with it as she has introduced more cliques/tropes from her other works (according to other people who have watched her other projects) into Love in the air. Secondly, I write my own fanfictions as well and can identify with her cliques and tropes. The first couple I want to get into is Rain and Phayu, I liked them as they were portrayed well by their actors and I LOVED their story as well. I liked how Rain, is airheaded, cute and irresponsible at first, however he progressed as a character and got better later on. On the other hand, their was Phayu, even though his character isn't all that original I fell in love with him. Which I felt Mame did a good job writing both character no matter how they were dicpited from both in the book and show. Phayu is very mature, cool, and strict, however even though many see him as perfect he too has his flaws and that he is insecure. Which I praise Mame for the fact that both Rain's and Phayu's quality's are of the complete opposite however Phayu is mature enough to ground Rain when he needs to be. Which would resemble a real relationship. Their isn't much to any misunderstandings, which is good and even angst ( Which I kind of would have love -- just a little). Another thing, is that I love how Phayu doesn't put up with Rain's bad behavior just because he is interested him, likes, or love him. Which is something I see often times within Asian dramas across the board.

To contrast, the second couples were okay, yeah just okay for me. As someone who can relate to Sky with his trauma, I just couldn't get with the story. I don't nor shouldn't expect for the whole r*pe scene to be taken seriously as this is a drama for pure entertainment. Which I'm not expecting that nor should anyone since as I said previously this is just for entertainment and writing. However, this was interesting since I don't watch shows with r*pe elements. Even though, both Peat and Fort did good, however they didn't have the chemistry like Rain and Phayu. Which is fine considering that Boss and Noeul are actually close in real life. I like Sky's character more than P'pai considering that P'pai just wasn't a saint (Red Flag!!!) and he did things that got under my skin (not for the same reason it did other people). I just wasn't convinced that P'pai had changed from a F-boy to a committed gentlemen because he still gave F-boy energy. The ending was pretty rushed which was to be expected because the show only had 13 episode, which could have been more if Mame didn't combine the stories. Furthermore, I didn't expect Sky's Ex to be punished severely considering that it never happens in Asian drama.

Acting/Cast: I think everyone did a good job with playing their parts. Especially Boss and Noeul since this is their first acting gig while this is both Forts and Peats job in a main role. In the future, I would like both Boss and Noeul to venture out and be more diverse with their acting/roles as they have become close. I do ship them however I want them to be more like Bright and Win from GMMTV where even though they are popular together, they can still survive without each other. On the other hand, I want Fort to improve his acting because he did come up a bit short as well as Peat.

Music: I didn't like the music, it just wasn't my taste and its going to get some use to hearing both Boss and Noeul sing considering that this is not K-pop. In show, the music choice was questionable at times since again this is not like a Chinese nor Korean drama.

In conclusion, I would watch this drama again, which I know I am going to anyways. I would definitely recommend this show to future viewers as well.

Slow paced, but must watch!

Storyline/Plot: I liked the overall storyline of the main leads having a past and finally rekindling after years of not seeing each other. Furthermore, I liked the theme of the drama of them tackling issues like women being sexually harassed and mistreated unfairly in the workplace which is something that happens universally no matter where you're from. The issues weren't taken too seriously that it came off "Woke" nor too lightly where it was seen as a joke or as a mockery, but there was a nice balance. I know many people were not happy with them focusing on Meena's situation since they could have added in another secondary couple, which most dramas tend to do. Yet, it was nice that they didn't do because it would have been too clique. I liked that they took a risk with it since they did expand on their relationship and the guilt that she had for leaving Kim (ML). I also felt like it tackled something that no other drama really does and that's understanding all sides of every character because they could have just left us with the notion that she left him due to him being busy with work, but they actually showed us what her real reasons for leaving him was. Another thing that I really enjoyed was that out of the whole "who is going to end up with whom???" all of the characters had their own issues to work out.

On the other hand, what I disliked was Tan's character. He is really a walking, talking RED FLAG. I hate his personality, he is always acting cool, yet aggressive around Kim (ML) and Nubdao (FL)for like no reason. Which I could somewhat understand Kim because he feels threatened by him but still it's annoying. Moreover, I wasn't buying him and Nubdao's friendship because he didn't really stand up for her like a friend should the way that Kim did WITHOUT hesitation. Furthermore, he is always in Kim and Nubdao's business where it doesn't concern him.

Acting/cast: I think that everyone did really well, this is my first drama with Davika and Off since I knew Off from Not Me. However, I couldn't get into Not Me. Even though, I hated Off's character I think that he did good with portraying Tan's character because I sure hated his character. Similarly, this was also my first show with Davika, and she really suited Nubdao and her chemistry with Bright. I would definitely love her and Bright to do another project together, she is my favorite actresses that has been paired with Bright so far. I don't have anything to say about Bright since I'm a fan of him, yet his acting is definitely improving.

Music: My favorite Ost is definitely the Intro, Gawin is doing the lords work by giving us good Ost's. I liked how the song really fit the theme and concept of the show and it really hits on an emotional level. Every time this song plays, I get really emotional and be ready to start crying.

In conclusion, this show is one of GMMTV's gem shows of course it's not perfect but it defiantly worth the watch due to the characters, theme, and overall risk in terms of writing.

Worth the wait

Storyline/Plot: The first think that I liked about the story was that it was fast paced and easily to follow. Then, the overall Mafia theme, which was nice and dark for a BL series, since we do tend to get a lot of Campus type of BL's. I also enjoyed the adult content of the show it wasn't unnecessary many of the "adult" scenes were beautifully shot and served a purpose. Similarly, it was nice to see a BL that had adult content since most BL's are tamed and feel more like Bro romance. Furthermore, it wasn't predictable as most BL series are, yet they even changed the way things happened from the novel to spice it up a bit and get people anticipating for the next episode. The only minor thing about the plot was that there was only one plot hole in which never got resolved, which never really messed up the plot, but I would have liked the character's reaction to the conflict being resolved.

Acting/cast: I felt like most of the cast did an amazing job and was amazingly casted. I could not imagine other actors playing any other roles unlike the cast that we got. I'd like to thank Miles for playing Kinn because he really brought out Kinns horny and slutty moments perfectly. While Apo was able to portray Porsche's unpredictable nature swiftly without no issues and it was believable.

Music: This was the first drama that I've watch were I liked all of the Ost's because it fit the show and it expressed character's relationships and how certain character's felt. It was a nice touch on letting Jeff have his own Ost since he is a famous musician/signer himself. Furthermore, I liked the main song in the show, Free fall, since they had two versions one from Porsche's Pov and another from Kinn's Pov.

In conclusions, this show isn't a masterpiece but it's a great show nonetheless and after this I will have high expectations when it comes to other BL series. I would also rewatch this show because it was really good, and I do hope that in the near future we do get a season two.

Missed Opportunity

I honestly don't know why I watched this show because it wasn't something that I would see myself watching. This was my first time watching a show from this company, so I didn't have any high expectation going into this.

Storyline/Plot: The plot was very simple despite me having to re-watch the first-two episodes twice to get the jist of it. The beginning was very good in terms of pacing, I liked how they got to the point of the conflict. The arrange marriage aspect of the show was self-explanatory and even the main characters getting ''Married'' even though same sex marriage isn't legalized. Furthermore, I liked how they talked about some issues within the LGBTQ+ but I felt like they could have done more with it since it was just a couple of times throughout the drama. However, what I didn't like was that the Main Character Lian and Kuea they didn't feel like a couple but more like father and son. Which was unhealthy to me for their relationship since it felt like Lian was a bit too overbearing at times with Kuea. Moreover, I would have like them to be more character development with Kuea because he was just too far up Lian's behind. He felt like he just existed to be around Lian even though Lian had his own hobbies and skills of his own. Moreover, the kitchen scene was very out of place and triggering because Lian could have just comforted Kuea instead of making out with him in such a way that seemed out of nowhere. Especially since Lian does have a harsh way of being mean/cold towards Kuea when he doesn't do something correct as Lian comes off as a perfectionist. I also hated how most of the show was about the two couples Khon Diao/ Yi and Lian/Kuea having communication issues and they just kept on dragging the issue without solving it and could have just expanded the plot.

Acting/ Cast: This was my first time watching all the actors in the show. The actors were okay, there wasn't anything special about them as the plot just fell flat and was pretty simple. The actors could do more if the plot had substance to it.

Music: Most of the music came from Nunew, he is a great singer, but there was one episode where he was singing, and it just became annoying that they had him sing what felt like five songs back-to-back.

In conclusion, I would not rewatch this show again, the show isn't the most terrible thing to come out of a BL genre, but it was cute for what it was. This would be a drama that you just watch to past the time if you have nothing else to do and want to put on something on the TV.

Bad writing and Messaging

I'm very disappointed at GMMTV for giving Win this role and the other actors since this is the first time watching all the other actors except for Win. This show has a terrible storyline, at first it sounded really promising but it just fell short when actually being invented in the show itself. I think that GMM needs to invest in better writers since most of their shows are recycled and or just straight up safe. I would like them to go out of the box and make something that we, the viewers haven't seen.

Storyline/Plot: The plot sounded promising but actually watching the show it gets worse. I hate the fact that I was 12 episodes deep into the show and still I don't even know why Namcha is so invested into Irin. Like, what is so good about her that you have to be so clingy with her and Biase??? Furthermore, the plot is only moving forward because of Jin and Inn's character who I enjoy more since they are spicing up the show more unlike the main leads. Also, they spent an entire episode focusing on the Namcha and Irin having a nice moment together instead of utilizing that episode for something better. As for the message, I hate the fact that many are defending Namcha and Irin's actions. It didn't sit right with me when Namcha had got upset with Inn in the hospital after her car accident to tell her that they would never be together, I just felt like it was not the right time and also the fact that Inn already knew about his feelings for Irin this WHOLE ENTIRE SHOW. Furthermore, Inn was not in the mental condition to be even having that conversation at the moment so for him to bring it up in that moment was Disgusting. Moreover, people blaming Inn for things that she didn't even do and also the straight hypocrisy in not keeping the same energy for certain characters.

Acting/Cast: In short, all the actors did their part as the acting was good especially with Piploy and Pod. I don't care for Min and Win since they both didn't have much chemistry together, in my opinion and the poor writing just overshadowed their acting ability.

Music: I did enjoy Win's song as the opening song.

In conclusion, this show was just bad especially for Wins first show as a Male lead being paired with a woman. Next time, I just hope that he gets a better role that show case his acting ability better.

Attention grabbing; but poorly executed

This show was different coming from most of the shows that I've seen from GMM since this is the second show other than 2gether and F4 Thailand, which ended this week as well that I've seen. The show is nice even from the synopsis, I was hesitant at watching since I knew that this show was going to be angsty and dramafulled, which I don't have a problem with at all.

Storyline/Plot: I liked the plot since they were two families who had issues with one another, and we (the viewers) are trying to understand why and how this revengeful story took place kind of like a mystery. Furthermore, even though the two family don't like each other its interesting how the kids try to navigate through said hate. However, I just felt like there was too many plot twists that unfolded towards the end that was so unnecessary and it felt poorly executed in the end. Moreover, they could have done more with certain character like Rut since all we saw from him was his poor financial issues as he likes to gamble and then get himself into issue when it came time to pay the debt off and this constantly happens over and over. Also, they could have executed the family tree better, cause boy was I confused and to even add into the mix some kids didn't even share the same father in the end.

Acting/Cast: This was the first time me watching most of everyone in the show, even though I noticed that Gun was in here playing Non as he was in Not Me another good GMM show. The casting was good, which wasn't the issue for the most part everyone played their parts well. Not to mention, this being Fiats last show before exiting GMM, he went out with a banger.

Music: The music to me wasn't all of that in my opinion after coming from F4 Thailand that had an amazing Ost. On the other hand, I liked that Aye and Krist did the opening/ending since they were the love birds in this series and end game. Furthermore, I liked the lyrics from both of their songs since it did match the theme of the show.

In conclusion, I will not watch this show again due to how poorly executed it was in the end and this is just one show (in my opinion) that you should just watch once because once you know everything that happens there is just nothing to it. It was good for what it was, and I hope GMM does better with shows like this.

The BEST Remake Hands down! Unique

I don't know where to start with this review, this is the best Hana Yori Dango remake of all times. The characters all the way to the plot was amazing including the production.

Storyline/Plot: I loved the plot because it stayed true to the original source material, however I liked that they added their own uniqueness to it to make it more interesting. I enjoyed that they added symbolisms from what the characters were wearing from the colors down to the jewelry's, locations, and props. Furthermore, the characters had something meaning full about them despite how we are introduced to them. Also, they did a really great a good job by adding on to the message that Kamio was making when she wrote Hana Yori Dango. Moreover, I liked the way that they portrayed the relationship each of the characters. Even though, this version had a darker take, it was far more the most realistic. On the other hand, the one issue I had was that I didn't like how they portrayed Hana's character as she was more of a badass in the Japanese version.

Acting/Cast: This was my first time seeing Bright and Win, which I did go back to watch 2together while watching this so I could have more information on them both seeing how popular they are. Brights acting was good in here, he did a better job playing Thyme than Lee Min Ho did playing Jun Pyo. Even though Bright was 23-24 at the time, he could pass as a teenager/ highschooler. Furthermore, bright was really submerged in his role that you can't even tell that he is acting. The only issue that I had with Bright acting wise was that he needed to work on his more emotional scenes because he comes off as cringe or rather weird along with Tu. As for Win, I was skeptical with his portrayal of Kavin because I was used to him playing a character like Tine Teepakorn from 2gether, so I didn't know what to think about him playing Kavin. Yet, I was taking a back as I kept watching because he did so well that I couldn't imagine anyone playing Kavin but him. I like how he focuses on the character's emotions. As for the other actors, Dew and Nani they did an amazing job as well and I look forward to seeing their future work.

Music/Ost: I love all the Ost since everyone such as Bright, Dew, Nani, and Win all had they are part in the Ost. I love how all the actors had their Ost based off of their characters all the issues that they were struggling with. My favorite was Gavin, Bright's, and Win's song including Shooting star and Who am I?

In conclusion, I don't think in the near future that we would get another remake as good as this one since the Thai version has raised the bar TOO high. I am looking forward to all the actor's future works.

Nostalgic

I know many people couldn't get access to watch this since GMMTV only put to stream for Disney+ in Thailand, but viewers internationally have a hard time being able to watch this and others think that this is a copy of the original 2gether the series with many of the similar scenes. However, the scenes are the same if you have watched the series, but they have cut it shorter for the sake of it being a movie and adding in new scenes as well. Also, in the beginning most of it is narrated by Tine since he is one of the main characters following Sarawat. This time we actually get to hear both Tine and Sarawat's thoughts when they both fell in love with each other unlike in the series where we only got their dialogue. Moreover, some of the passionate scenes that Tine and Sarawat had are more emotional if you are a longtime fan of the series and both Win and Bright. Overall, the movie is really good as it brings more of an emotional effect to it and nostalgia as well.

Lighthearted; Youthful

From what I've read from other reviews, I was really hesitant to watch this since I've gotten it to the Actor Bright and Win. So, I decided to suck it up and watch this series since it would be my second BL series. After watching this series, many of the reviews that this got was just unjust since the series was pretty good and not what I had expected.

Storyline/Plot: I really like for a BL that this drama wasn't stereotypical when it comes to same sex couples. I liked the fact that both of the characters didn't start of gay but slowly developing feelings for each other. Furthermore, I liked the messaged that Sarawat had told one of the other students who was a girl and not gay/bisexual was that he didn't care about being open with his sexuality but being with the person that he loves. It meant that being homosexual was more than just a title as they both wasn't gay nor Bi. I also like how funny and comical it was since it wasn't so serious and light. The characters were great at portraying their characters as the jokes and endless flirting didn't come off as cringe nor flat. The production was good as everyone got their time to shine and it did well with the transitions from couple to couple. Which I know that many series that features many couples struggle with having a good amount of screen time.

Acting/Cast: I started watching this because of Win, but it made me realize how good Bright's acting really is. I would love to see Bright, and Win do another BL since they had really good chemistry together. I don't know their sexuality in real life but if they are not gay nor Bi, they surely made this convincing. Furthermore, I love the fact that all the other actors really got along with each other well off and on camera.

Music: I liked the music, since Win sung most of them and he is getting better at singing. Furthermore, the actors were heavily involved with the soundtrack as well.

In conclusion, this series is worth the try since it was really good in its own way. I've rewatched this drama more than 10x (not exaggerating) because it had many sweet, romantic, and funny moments that had to be rewatched. Again, the chemistry and plot were really good.

Slow-burning romance; refreshing

This drama is a MUST watch because its a slow-burn romance and its really refreshing to watch for a romance drama. It is nicely produced especially with the OST. Because this the second season of One and Only, I was scared to watch this because it was a sequel to a costume drama but in Modern day setting. I hate how usually they would go back in fourth between the two settings yet they didn't that for this drama. This was fully a Modern day drama, so it was done properly.

Story/Plot: I love the plot especially it taking off from the previous season and it being the two leads meeting each other based off of destiny. It gave off a nice romantic feel for how the two leads came together. Furthermore, I love the fact that their wasn't any misunderstandings or angsty moments. They even made ZhouSheng Chen's (ML) Ex, Tong Jiren whom is obviously is saddened by not being with ZhouSheng Chen and tries to get back with him [ without the petty tactics] into a comedic effect. They do the same thing with Shi Yi's (FL) co-worker whom has a crush on her, where ZhouSheng Chen gets jealous and Shi Yi finds it adorable. On the other hand, they could have done better with explaining why ZhouSheng Chen and Tong Jiren's relationship/ engagement ended. I love the way they showed off ZhouSheng Chen and Shi Yi's marriage as being healthy and loving.

Acting/Cast: This is my second Allen Ren drama while my third drama for Bai Lu. I'm more familiar with Bai Lu, I am used to her playing very tomboy character so it was nice seeing her in a more mature role. At first, I didn't even recognize her at first because of how pretty she is. She played the her role very well, she is very good no matter whom she is playing with. Allen also did a great job since I love his character. He plays nervous, shy and awkward characters well. I love the facial expressions he makes.

Ost: I love the songs, all of them fit the scenes and the emotion behind them.

In conclusions, this drama is a must watch since its really good. I would definitely re-watch this drama for the good acting, plot and of course Allen.

Creative; yet underrated

I was at first hesitant to watch this drama as I had just finished the 2021 drama ''Nevertheless'' and was left drained. So, I had gave this drama a try not really knowing what to expect.

Story/Plotline: At the first the prologue was very confusing as they were trying to explain the history of the demon (Ma Wang) {I guess, couldn't really remember as it was forgetful.} It was as if they were trying to pull a Eternal love of dream with the explanation of whom Ye Hua was., yet failed. Furthermore, it just felt like they were trying to do a deity Chinese drama but realized they didn't have the runtime for it. On the other hand, I actually like the overall story and it wasn't hard to understand. A lot of the "plot holes" that everyone is talking about maybe because they didn't fully pay attention. The plot wasn't complicated or anything nor required a great level of thinking. The drama was very bubbly with some fantasy and politics to expand the storyline. However, I wished things were fleshed out more with the relationships of the characters as to why they are helping Ha Ram (ML). Then, the ending left me thinking that we may get a second season, since it ended off as a cliffhanger.

Acting/Cast: This was the first time watching both of the main leads, they were both very good at portraying their characters. A lot of people complained about how terrible/ mediocre the characters were which I felt like okay but don't blame the actors. This was how the writers wrote the characters so they only could work with what they were offered. Nonetheless, I would enjoy seeing the other actors in other works.

Music: I really didn't care for the music since it didn't really grab my attention what so ever.

In conclusions, the drama wasn't bad it was really light hearted with some added politics and it was fairly short compared to what I am used to. I would actually re-watch this, especially if their is another season to it finally getting rid off the bad guy once and for all.

Realistic modern day love; frustrating

This was my first Korean drama in awhile since I stopped around 2018, so it was refreshing to have something to watch and it be a Korean drama. Since, I watch mostly Chinese, Thai and Japanese. Also, this drama is not for the weak hearted.

Storyline/Plot: I really enjoyed the plot line since it was a realistic take on how love is in modern times. I really was happy that we finally have a drama like this since I usually see Japanese drama's convey social issues within their drama's. So, I wasn't expecting this drama to talk about something that happens in real life. I was hesitant to watch it since the synopsis didn't really stand out to me with how they described the drama. However, I was glad that I gave this drama a chance seeing I can relate to it. On the other hand, I hated how boring it got from episode 8 and onward. Which I had to drop the drama because it go boring and Nabi (FL), she just started to think so dumb. And it just became to hard to watch to the point I had to force myself to watch episode 8 which I stopped watching mid way. Furthermore, I don't like forcing myself to watch things and skipping either. Another thing is they started giving Nam Kyu Hyun (Kim Min Gwi) less screen time for something so dumb and petty (he cheated on his girlfriend and she exposed him for it). It left me uninterested with his and Bit Na's relationship since we couldn't see much of his face. Ji wan and Sol's relationship was annoying and not progressing as they both couldn't come to terms with whatever feeling's they had. All in all, all the couples including the secondary couples were boring and poorly written. The first half of the drama (episode 1-7) was good in my opinion and then it gets bad from there.

Acting /Casting: I liked both Song Kang and Han So Hee giving this is the first time I am watching a drama with the both of them. And the fact that they played both of their character's well. Also, I could say the same thing for the secondary actors and actresses as well.

Music: I don't talk about music much but I love the ost because it has such a chill vibe to it seeing that this is a youthful drama and it being taken place in college. It was really nice along with the aesthetics as well.

In conclusion: I won't be re watching this drama because it something I don't typically see myself revisiting due to it being so frustrating and its not exciting. Where as I could go back in time 5-10 years from now and be like "Oh! Look!, I remember when this drama came out, let's re watch!." for some happy memories and/or funny parts.

Youthful; College life

This drama has two seasons, I watched it as one whole drama. But, I will just talk about this one season.

Storyline/Plot: I really love the overall feel of the drama very youthful and fun. I like the college theme and that everyone has a different department that their in i.e Wen Chu (ML), he is good at oil painting. While Ru Hau (FL), she is good at water ink painting. And, it is heavily surrounded on art. Furthermore, their is a lot of funny scenes between the main leads. I even like the friendships and how everyone gets along with each other. Their is not much cliques. At first, I was a bit nervous about Zi Su's character because she was suppose to be the second female lead that we are normally supposed to hate. But, she was different to the part were she actually learned from her mistakes and fell in love with someone else. Then, Fang Luo, I thiught he was going to be our second male lead since him and Ru Hau had a very close relationship and were friends. But, overall the plot was nice and refreshing.

Acting/Cast: I like both the main leads, I watched this drama because of Leon Li Yi. I have to say as a fan of the male lead, his character was very funny and different than what I seen him in (jiu liu overlord).

Music: The opening was okay and the song that played throughout the romantic scenes.

In conclusion, the drama was really nice. I would watch it again in my spear time since their is not a lot of dramas like this.
