I honestly can't get into it yet since I don't see any real sparks between the main male and female leads. I guess I need to see more of their developing relationship before I can truly say that they have good chemistry. What I've seen so far is a link between a spoiled rich son who refuses to work hard because he's rebelling against his dad and a poor yet hardworking beautiful girl who catches his interest because of her fiery temper. Both are good-looking especially Deng Lun but the story line hasn't got me hooked in yet. Plus that "grab money dance" they're supposed to perform at the workplace every morning is a little bit silly for me. So maybe, there's some comedic relief there but I failed to appreciate it. Let's see what happens in the next episodes and I will give an update when English translations are already available.

Update: The romance between the two main leads takes awhile to develop. The male lead only realizes his feelings halfway in the drama. I totally understand why this is frustrating to viewers who expects the love aspect to develop sooner and showed longer. They only got together on the last few episodes and after that, you'll wish there was more. Instead, you'll get to see different families and other side stories of people trying to buy houses. Personally, it didn't bother me since buying houses is fascinating to me. I went through the excitement and frustration of buying a house myself and wanted to see how they did it. If that's not your cup of tea, then move on. This is not a full romantic drama that you're expecting. The leads did a great job of acting though and they look cute together but the chemistry wasn't as great as I expected.
