Just an opinion
This drama is kind of off to a slow start. I don't particularly like the ML. He's smug, arrogant and a bit of an asshole who thinks his shit don't stink. I also find him unattractive so he doesn't even have that going for him. His face is so punchable. The FL also needs more personality, but I do understand why she is the way she is. However, I love Yang Mi so I hope she brings her character out of her shell in later episodes. I'm also streaming this on Viki with English translations, but there are random parts with actual English spoken and I find it weird. I'd rather just hear Chinese being spoken and read English subtitles. Another thing that bothers me is the release of episodes. Only one at a time?
*Edit: More things to add on...
Both ML and FL have gotten better, but surprisingly the ML has evolved more. FL is still kind of a bland character for me which is disappointing cuz I love Yang Mi, but this just ain't it. She's reluctant to accept ML's feeling because of her fiancé that died, but they don't really go into much depth on that either so it's just boring.
Romance is not really big in this series either which is fine. However, the medical aspect in all of this seems very fake for me. Like why do they need 2-3 doctors for every patient? Why do they change the doctors for the patient during treatments? Despite a patient's consent or lack of, why do they allow opinions of people who don't have the medical power of attorney to get involved? Also, the show started off with both leads being more surgeons, and now they hardly operate. Everything gets passed off to some other department. It makes no sense to me.
There is also the issue of random characters like the girl that likes Bai Zhu. She just pops out of nowhere from time to time. Then Xiao Yan's brother... barely anything going on there. Then the Director's ex-wife and child... Seriously, random.
Now let's talk supporting cast... None of them really has anything outstanding about them. Not much growth either. I will say that I can't stand Cheng Zhi. Not only is he an absolute moron, but he's annoying as well. Bro can't take a hint. He honestly shouldn't even be a doctor with how stupid he is.
Overall, the show has gotten better, but a lot of the storylines feel half-assed. The show is ok, but I wouldn't watch this again.
