Maybe watch it for the cast who did a great job
Let me begin by how annoyed i am by the ending. I was hooked when i first started watching it not gonna lie. And seriously the first 20 eps were good, entertaining. The last 5 eps mainly were over the top rushed and with the amount of deleted scenes i think another 10 full eps can be made. It was pathetic, the editing and the ending. So many loose strings left untied, so much time unnecessarily spent on useless cases, i get it that it is a medical drama so u gotta focus more on the medical scenes but just handle them quicker instead of going slow in the beginning then rushing everything into a mess in the last eps to the point where it was even difficult to figure things out or get a good closure. The ending and the last 5 eps as a whole was so UNSATISFACTORY. It could have been so much better if it had better editing.
Lets move on to the characters now- i grew to love Bai Zhu, his character had growth, from an annoying bratty doctor to a mature man under the influence of his lady live who he relentlessly pursued. Xiao Yan was a little confusing to me, since i couldn't understand whether she even felt something for Bai Zhu, that part was simply not given any focus. There was almost no couple time, them growing feelings for each other was so vague, especially for the FL. They literally showed her only when she was needed for the treatments, her POV on her feelings, about Bai Zhu, her efforts were NEVER shown. Xiaoguang was such a nice character.
I can't say it enough really but I HATED TANG HUA! How can a non love rival character be that irritating? How??? Her whole damn arc was irritating, she and her stupid Chen Zhi both had zero growth, were totally flat and annoying characters. I fast forwarded all her scenes. Even zheng yajie was 100x better than her.
I wanted to see more on the director and head nurse's story but that was cut short too, without a closure just like all other side characters were.
Most of the patients stories were so dramatic, i hated the characters of so many family members and some patients too. Their stories were extra emotional to a melodramatic extent.
The doctors own stories were okay, but side characters had 0 character development. The romance was not well built, thought it was understandable and could've been a good love story with better direction.
I can't quite complain about the acting because i found 0 fault with it, also i am a ym fan and i quite like bai yu. Thats the best part of the show imo.
Watch it if u want good acting, melodramatic stories, and nothing else to watch.
