One of the reasons I picked this show was a fair amount of positive reviews here. So, I feel obliged to post mine for the new viewers to be better informed before they even start. I didn't like the writing in the first place: it's like when you're expecting some character cooking and brewing based on the material that has already been dropped into the plot, but, instead, the authors add some "out of nowhere" storyline details that give you the feeling of a broken rollercoaster. Too much screen time for insignificant and silly comedy scenes, while something really meaningful is being jumped over and blurred. With all my love to Bai Yu and his immaculate acting, the character looks like having a multiple personality disorder and it is not about his other Self that was chained in his inner jail for centuries (that part is nothing but adorable, especially the scene in the amusement park). It's about his rapid back and forth switch from the cold and arrogant "boss" to the socially skilled and sweet "best boy-friend ever". I know Bai Yu can do both, but the authors had been trying to convince us Bai Qi cannot and then... make him do the things he cannot. Feels very strange. Speaking of Bai Yu, my previous drama with him was the Guardian (safely dropped after the 5th episode) and it is kind of dissapointing to see him in a basically similar story. What IS better than in Gardian though are the charming vertical storylines, that ARE given a proper time and the characters keep reappearing as the main story unfolds. There are two reasons I completed the show: (1) an amazing cast, all of them. Some familiar faces from other dramas as totally different haracters from what I've seen before and it even took me time to recognize the actor or actress, so different they are (and it's about the character, NOT the way they look). (2) the language in the drama seemed easy and I used it as my Mandarin Chinese study material. I also watched it as a detox from tremendously good but harsh The Three Kingdoms and it now looks like a need a detox from this syropy love story. I join the club of those who didn't see much of a chemistry between the main leads, but they were still great, each on their own.
