Give it a try!
The story was rather draggy, and some of the characters annoy me so much that I started skipping their scenes. They could have prevented some of the conflicts. I don't know if it was just me but when I go from one episode to another, I felt like I just missed a whole chunk of the storyline? Some of the underlying stories are also not told? I kind of wish they do not cut out some of the scenes. It made the whole drama feel like something was missing.Johnny Huang and Dilreba's chemistry and acting were on point! All their actions look so natural and real! Also, their character developments were also really awesome! This is probably one of the few if not the only drama where there is proper communication between the main couple, and no cliche misunderstanding. I hope I can see Johnny Huang and Dilreba in the same drama again in the future.

RECOMMENDED
I watched this without having any expectations since I did not know the main leads. BUT I ended up loving it. I could not stop until I finished the entire series. I gave the storyline 9.5 because there were some parts where I wished they go more in-depth, especially about the parents of both main leads and Sara, and I would have loved to know more about the rest of the spies. I gave the music 9.0 because there was no particular music that really stood out to me. But overall, it was really good! The main leads' actings were on point! I really love the dynamics between the mains and the second leads! The second leads were also really cute and I love the development of their relationship as well. I definitely recommend it!PS: I don't know if it is just me but the female lead reminds me of Ma Si Chun (the female lead from Chinese Drama Love Me If You Dare) and the male lead reminds me of Vin Zhang (from Chinese Dramas The King's Woman and I Will Never Let You Go). I will definitely be checking out more drama from both of them.

This is the first time I have written a review for a drama... so bear with me? I started watching this with an open mind after seeing all the reviews - both good and bad, so I did not have that much expectation? Overall, it was ok, it's not one of those WOW drama. Would I rewatch this drama? probably not.. some scenes were cute.. I might replay those eps but I would not watch the entire drama again. But I am looking forward to see how season 2 will be like.
- may contain spoiler from here on...
Storyline - the drama as a whole in terms of the storyline was ok? But, some of the storylines feel incomplete? Like the way Chu Yan was kidnapped and why Yi Zhou's mother acts the way she did at the end? I need more to those stories!! Also JiaFei and Wen Li's story and Chu Yan and Tong XiaoYou's story could be more elaborated? And An Ran.. I feel like her character was rather clumsily portrayed? It's not particularly the actress's fault but rather the character development (??) was not very good. The thing that got me a bit weird out was the extreme possessiveness of Yi zhou. If I was Xia lin/ Mu Mu, I would feel very creeped out, and it was very hypocritical of Yi Zhou to do what he did. If you can get over the creepiness of his actions, the rest of the drama is somewhat cute?
Acting - overall, it was ok.. not superb...there were some scenes where the male and female lead could have expressed/acted out better? They look unnatural in those scenes.. but it's only a few scenes? They have potential for sure! I hope they show some improvement in season 2.
OST - the opening song lyrics is catchy... 我还是很喜欢你~~~
