I honestly almost gave up on it... but the allure of Vin Zhang just kept pulling me back... then the father and son arc got into focus and I was hooked... the acting between him and Director Song, that's the first time Cdrama made me cry... makeup was atrocious in the last two episodes.....Vin's makeup was okay in JR scenes though you can see a disconnect between the makeup artist and the lights director, which is vital to create a realistic look on screen. Colors that are supposed to be saturated by camera lights in indoor shooting becomes painfully visible when same makeup was used in outdoor daylight filming and evening lightings.. the last 2 episodes though, maybe because it was shot overseas, so different makeup artist and hair stylist? The actress was great in her other series, but her hair and clothing here is just non-believable as the alpha-female heiress... and suddenly she's a kungfu master... kudos to the actors for making up for the production's shortcoming... But don't their studio chooses the script for the good of theor artists? I can't believe no one from the beginning picked up the lackluster script and storyline. The amnesia trope was absolutely garbage... Looks like the screenwriter had an amnesia at the last minute and lost logic at the same time...
