This review may contain spoilers

please, dont expect any high expectations before the drama aired

In my opinion, the reason of the low rating is because the high expectations of this drama.
So...🙂
If this is not starred by nowaday popular stars, I doubted the low ratings even if the story had a very bad editing and directing
Anyway, as for now:
The story
While I still watch this and it's not a bad story, I had to admit the repetitive stories of the leads
They had that push and pull, one step ahead, two steps back by the next
And the story did good to every single person in the story, even the Fml, except for the ML and it's not fair
Many plotholes are not explained, even after almost the last episode (im on 23 currently)
The most important one is the swapping baby thing, who did that actually?
And weird one is, so the male lead lives with the name of Boze, while Boze lives with Qingyi's name?
Kinda weird, bcs they had to switch back to their real name after using it for 12 years.
All of the characters in the story are such red flags.
The mother keeps calling him a bad luck bcs he's too late to inform them about the station's explosion. This one is a consistent character for me, and Myolie did good on this character.
The sister is also consistent although I'm really questioning, who in the hell cast her in the first place? Her acting is so meh for me.
Who's not consistent?
The abusive adoptive father. He fed him raw meat, but also show a little bit of fatherly love to him too, which makes me think, do you love him or not? Anyway, the actor is kind of good portraying the adoptive father
Qingyu. He loved Ms Ye,but he didnt even chase her. He claimed to love Qingyi, but he ended up always hurting him and always didnt trust him whenever Qingyi gives info for the family. He even sent him abroad, so there'll be no conflict. He sent him to jail to avoid conflict with the huo, without even defending him although they are from a wealthy family. He knows Qingyi loves Susu but still using susu to kill someone. Do you even called that love?
Even Qingyi's character is also inconsistent. He cut off Susu after the death of his brother, although it's 6 years later, if you cut off someone, then you cut them off, not chasing over someone who didnt even want you and called you things. Even if you had a child together, then the only one you should focus is the child and not the mother, who didnt even want you to be a father of your own child.
About the acting, the reason I give it a 10 is because they actually could pull off their charcaters perfectly (except the sister ofc)
In my opinion, zlh could led me to Murong Qingyi's feeling perfectly. There's some missed point here and there, yes, but as a walnut i wanted to give him a chance to learn.
Churan too, while some people said she's so stoic, but for me, she's perfect here. So red flag that i never guessed she will ever act as red flag so perfectly. Although she, too missing some points on the emotional scenes
Rewatch value is a 5 for me. I dont think I will always comeback and rewatch this.
Why there's no rating about the editing?
If they had, i will only gives it a 3
Im sorry but even zlh's team takes the expression of zlh during the death of his brother so much better than the one they put on the drama. They cut it down and it sucks.
Remember the pororo plane?
I dont want to talk about the CGI editing. It sucks.
