Impressed by the actor(s)

My first comment will be that this is an understandable internationally drama, to an extend that was pleasure watching, as oppose to other dramas on youtube where either due to translation or else were struggle to watch.
First drama I come to with actor Zhai Tian Lin and quite impressed with his ability to realistically portray a business person behaviour. As well, very good chemistry with FL actress Jiang Kai Tong.
Regarding the plot - first of all, let me say - it is understandable - there are many other dramas where a foreigner would struggle to understand what the authors of the drama wanted to say - this is not the case with Warm Love. However, the later series seem to be written by a different skipt writer, as too much dragging, repetition of past scenes and characters talking outloud their thoughts. This may be done in order to enhance clarity and the viewers do not wonder what is going on.
Second on the plot - (and I am new in watching Asia dramas), but would say there are many productions that expolit the Cindrella storyline, and most I came upon are completely unrealistic - like Emperors and CEOs doing nothing all day long but chasing after women. So much so that you wonder how did China manage to achieve its historic and current economic achievements with its men being so. Well, this is not the case with Warm Love either. The ML character is quite realistically developed and balanced with a focus on his work/family members/emotions/work/business relations/. In this aspect, it could be noted that we have a much closer to reality story line.
Music is fine, costumes (this is not a costume drama but dressings were pretty well selected - ) - like the little sister character development was emphasized by going from excentric to more classic dress outfit. Same actually with other characters in the drams - so the person that selected the outfits did a good job to emphasize characters, character developments, emotions.
Overall, this was a pleasant experience coming up upon this drama. The main female character brings a positive vibe by being very positive, optimistic and up-to earth. The drama also shows the opposite - the distruction caused by wrong mindsets/ambitions.
Finally - MDL lists there are 37 episodes of this drama - but translated there exist 29. Please notify in comments if the remaining 8 are just not translated or what is the case.
