Honestly, I can’t understand why people are rooting for the male lead…

I really like the actor, but his character is unacceptable. Come on—he’s a drug trafficker. Yes, he got involved to save the woman he loves, but that doesn’t justify anything. He wants to save his family, his beloved—fine—but what about everyone else?

How many lives has he destroyed through drugs? How many families has he harmed?

I cannot accept it, I do not forgive it, and I will not excuse it.

I hope he and his girlfriend are arrested and pay for their crimes—which are far from minor.

That said, the drama itself is good. I’m enjoying it. I do recommend it.


Final thoughts (05/05/26)

Reaffirming what I said before: they should have paid for their crimes, especially drug trafficking.

I feel sorry for the fans, but I believe this was the best possible ending.

A powerful drama—beautiful, heartbreaking, and perfect.

Here is the revised version with the adjustment, keeping your tone and meaning intact:

My favorite character was Hong Bin, without a doubt. A truly remarkable human being—exemplary and deserving of all the recognition. To me, no one suffered as much as he did. Letting his own son go to his death requires far more than courage… I don’t know if I would have even a fraction of his conviction, bravery, and selflessness. It was deeply painful to watch.

My second favorite character was Chen Hui. Xu Kai brought to life an unforgettable character—gentle where he could be, reckless when pushed, intelligent until confronted by his own nature. Brilliant. If this were a revenge drama, I would definitely root for him. But here, much closer to real life, I cannot forgive him. He chose the worst path. He involved innocent people, destroyed his family, and ultimately couldn’t even uphold his own love.

Outstanding. 10/10, without a doubt. A great drama.

I loved it.
