BEST CDRAMA THIS YEAR
To be honest I am quite picky and it's not hard for me to just lose the mood and drop a drama.I love HouMinghao but I am still critical of some of his stuff, usually about plot, characterization or story telling, but this one, it is amazing.
The acting is superb, the plot moves fast, pacing is steady (also fast) but not sacrificing story telling. A lot of acting details, smalls acting choices that enrich characters, plot twist galore, some continuity problems but nothing too glaring, all done very tastefully, show and not tell.
The music is so good!!! Everybody had their moment to shine, which is so impressive, no one was dumbed down for the sake of another characters. Everybody has their own goals and struggle, even side characters have highlighted moments where they can show off their acting skills.
With 28 episodes they did so much, but nothing felt hurried or to fast, every tidbit we get at the beginning is used and explained at the end.
Truly one of the best dramas this year.
