Because Qiu Zhe.
I decided to watch this drama because it fitted my 2 criteria — at least 8/10 and no failures for reviews. Viewers praised this drama and so, I decided to go for it. I’m glad that I did.
What I liked:
- Qiu Zhe - I think he is a good actor but I’m not a big fan of his. I have not watched many of his works and was rather surprised to see him as the male lead. (I dived into the drama without checking the cast in detail.) I am pleasantly surprised by his very fine acting in this drama. He’s handsome, charming and appears very real. He acted very well and charmed me very much.
- The actors and actresses were (on the whole) very good at their job. Thumbs up for fine acting.
- The colleagues in the firm were nice people on the whole. There wasn’t much office politics and such.
- The plot was rather fast-paced and kept me engaged. Things were happening and I wanted to know what would happen. The plot was riveting enough.
- The mature romance between female lead’s mother and the older man was rather endearing to watch and realistically portrayed.
- Ending was a little rushed but it was a happy one and I like happy endings.
What I didn’t like:
- The female lead was a bit OTT IMO. She behaved rather irrationally at times IMO and I didn’t agree with her perspectives. She wasn’t the most charming/ pretty female lead either and her chin was too ‘pokey out-y’ for me. It appeared witch-like. I think another female lead might have done a better job and would have had more chemistry with the male lead.
- The female lead’s father and his wife were seriously beyond irksome. They were vile and repulsive. How could a father purposely cause hurt to his own daughter to force her into donating bone marrow to his other daughter. Talk about being biased! I hated the scenes with FL’s father and his wife. Such awful and indecent people.
- The baby girl who keep screaming and crying in the last episode.
Overall, this is a good drama to watch and I recommend it! The rewatch value isn’t high and the two leads don’t have sizzling chemistry but the acting is good and the plot is good too. Watch :)
