Final boss

I could not stand the leads in this show, personally I felt no chemistry, and I wasn't excited by their romance. I have seen a lot of reviews saying that there aren't any scenes that are a waste of time. This is completely untrue, I need someone to explain to me the purpose of the dice, knife, poetry fight from the 10th episode?

I was fine until she met Ouyang and things got dumb.

I hated the cinematography in particular. So many cuts for a simple conversation and weird ugly handheld shots that follow. Shots should be deliberate and meaningful. Sometimes the editing was so overzealous that I would get physically angry. I once counted 15 cuts in the span of a minute. Why? What for? They were just standing around talking casually but its edited like a fights broke out.


I skipped to the end and her fiance was the final boss.... So boring. Never again.
