I’ve been dropping quite a few dramas lately. This one seemed ok at the start. I particularly like the visuals of the two main leads Shawn Dou and Glunezer. However, the storyline started to drag and go around in circles, with no real character or relationship development (well not one that I liked).

Yuan Lai is the most childish, most insecure and stupid woman in the whole world. Whenever there is a misunderstanding between her and the man she loves, she just runs away without asking or communicating. Then she becomes angry and resentful towards him and pushes him away. Woman, all your problems can be solved if only you communicated better. He gave up so much for you, and yet you’re still pushing him away. Annoying character. You don’t deserve Jin Ran.

It isn’t clear why Jin Ran left for Japan 5 years ago without saying a word, apparently to study? Why couldn’t he inform Yuan Lai, why couldn’t they keep in touch? Why only 5 years later he decided to come back for Yuan Lai? So dubious.

And as for Chengzhi, the woman you like already rejected you, a few times, and yet you want to continue pursuing her? Have some self respect please. His pursuer Shen Shuang Shuang is no better, making a fool of herself to chase him. Not my cup of tea.

Shawn Dou was just great, I hope to see him in better roles. His latest one Tears in Heaven- I read it’s a similar draggy, beat around the bush kinda story. Sigh... how sad.
