Good story

This is my first time watching a Taiwanese drama and I really enjoyed it . The storyline is very interesting and creative and holds the viewers attention well. I loved the characters and the friendship/family vibes throughout the show. The only character I wasn't crazy about is the FL whom I found quite annoying and totally unrealistic. She was supposed to be portrayed as a spoiled, very, very naive, kind girl who was educated in the US, but instead she came across as a slow witted, low IQ, dumb person behaving like a three year old with her " mommy, mommy, mommy" ridiculousness. It appears that the actress couldn't grasp the idea of playing a naive (not dumb)cute, charming and likeable, interesting character. Instead we got a very, very bland personality along with a very bland appearance and no redeeming qualities She became a bit tolerable towards the end showing a little bit more spine and character. that should actually have been played since the beginning. I have deducted one point from my rating because I think the FL should have been cast to a bit more experienced actress. who would have been able bring an interesting, likeable character to the role. Actually , I think that the FL's best friend (toned down character) would have been a better choice for the FL role. I also didn't see much chemistry between the FL and ML lead to be called a true, believable romance.
Otherwise, I truly liked all the other characters/actors and my all time favorite is the boys'mother. What a cute lady she is! The music and scenery was awesome and memorable. Overall, it's a good watch and thank you for the entertainment and your hard work. Bravo!
