1.5 episodes in and I’m out. For good.

I began watching this drama with high expectations because it has a high rating of 8 plus / 10 and the reviews are very good. I thought that I had found a gem but I was wrong.

I endured the first episode. I use the word ‘endured’ because the acting was pretty poor and mediocre and the plot seemed quite boring. Someone (a reviewer) said that Joker Xue was funny. To my great disappointment, he was not funny at all. He seemed utterly selfish and eccentric. I could not stand his nasally voice which was fairly high pitched for a male and he sounded like a duck that quacked away. It was most unnerving and unpleasant. I didn’t like listening to him and I didn’t like watching him. I found him detestable. In the second episode, he was worse! He was squabbling with a female neighbour and behaved insufferably! It was painful to watch. After 1.5 episodes, I figured that ‘enough is enough’ and I should not plough my way through a drama that is utterly painful to watch.

Verdict - don’t watch this drama unless you like young boys who can’t act well and ridiculous adults like Joker Xue and the other adults who are revolting like the senior teachers.
Not a good drama.
