This review may contain spoilers
A romantic drama, embellished with an ML with super power.
THE PLOT:
A love triangle in a trio of high school students, separated by a "trick", meets again 7 years later in the business world. Economic rivalries, betrayals, corruption, intrigues, power struggles & shenanigans. Will the 2 leads succeed in overcoming misunderstandings, building a couple and saving their businesses?
ACTING:
I don't like FL (Zhang Xi Ye) at all, who looks like a "Barby doll", and is also expressionless. Poor acting skills. But at the end of the 15th ep., you get used to it...
Fortunately, there is Deng Chao Yuan (the ML) who holds the whole story on his shoulders. I also really like 2CL and the solid friendship between the ML and his doctor friend.
Zhou Rui (the 3ML and one of the "villains") is perfect in his sneaky persona... We hate him!
BUGS :
As soon as the CL is really formed, the tone becomes dramatic (even melodramatic:)
- The villains become more perverse ("Dramaland")
- the top is the so-called death of the ML! What widow would agree to believe in the death of her husband without seeing the body, without having a death certificate, without worrying about a funeral?
- Why do Asian screenwriters always write endings 3 to 5 years later? Nobody do not come out unscathed from 5 years of coma, even with the progress of medicine!! Is it to praise patience? Highlight the ability to live alone? I confess that I do not understand this so repetitive plot...
To conclude, the production is excellent, the OSTs are good, the story is decent despite the bugs (if you are a few indulgent).
So you'll have a great time with Deng Chao Yuan if you like romantic dramas, but I doubt I'll ever rewatch it because it's not memorable either.
