surprisingly decent drama

initially, when i first saw the title and the poster, i didn’t add this to my list as it doesn’t entice me. yet, i ended up getting hooked to it.

the plot is really interesting and the actress, Gia Ge, did a good job portraying the details of a cat. the way she wrinkles her nose is really cute, and very cat like. also, i love her acting during those heartbreaking scenes, the way she cried, i could feel the pain and it makes me sad too.

Ren You Lun also brought Chi Yan to live, the way he detached himself to others because of his past, and how he slowly accepted help from others, and how Xiao Xiu helped him to walk out of the dark, being ever so supportive whenever he is insulted and treated badly by others. you could really see the process of him opening his heart to others, and that’s very comforting to see.

as for the story, it can be improved i guess. initially it was very interesting and feels refreshing but towards the middle, around ep 17-19 it feels very draggy, and the fact that they only managed to catch the assailant at the last ep is also uhh. they also just glossed over the story with his mother & step-brother, so did he finally stopped being in contact with them? or is he still suffering? or maybe they did show it but i can’t really remember nor do i understand that plot.

in addition, my most dislike plot in dramas is having amnesia in them!!!!!!!! and this show does too, sigh. but to be fair, in this drama, it was justifiable… i felt so sad when it happened and her acting really helped me understand how she felt inside, i’m just glad that it all worked out in the future. ah, another part where i feel slightly disappointed is the fact that the characters didn’t tell their friends about the secret? ): i thought they would but they didn’t and slightly disappointing as his bff is his only friend for so long.

anyway, was a decent watch as long as you ignore some plot holes and the drag. a cute & fluffy drama, worth a try! :)
