This was my first ever Taiwanese show that I found on Netflix, so it has a special place in my heart because of that.

It's hard to place this series in one category because it did have its flaws that I can still clearly remember 3 years later. The plot dragged, and became convoluted, yet kept me enthralled and invested in it just enough that I couldn't skip the boring parts and had to know what happened next. It was just so unnecessary, and I had to focus a lot just to keep up with the under-handed twists and schemes of the business world.

But the cast absolutely saved it. The first few episodes are still some of the best episodes of Asian dramas I've seen, and I adored the chemistry between the MCs (but who are we kidding, Aaron Yan is able to draw the best out of his costars and makes the whole scene flow well). Even the costume design was top notch and the supporting cast was brilliant.

It's definitely worth watching for a first look into that genre of drama, to wet your toes into it from english shows.
