This drama was very well written and portrayed by the actors. The story good, production - good , music -okay, story line - very good, character development - very good , romance - poor.

This was a similar feel to ode to joy where it had depth in each character and different issue like divorce, people in their 30s/40s which is not seen very much(at least from the dramas I have watched). But I have a very huge issue and the down side to this dram which is small compared to the drama overall quality but still have to raise it. There is no kissing , doki doki moments in this romance. Now it could be because of the conservative feel or they are 30s/40s but come on.

SPOLIER
Every time he han and tang jing the "supposed couple" would be in a romantic moment. would they kiss? NO, a peck? NO all they did, i mean to most romantic thing they did was hug. THAT IS ALL. where is moments that make me go "oooooohhhhh" and gasp. answer NOWHERE. I mean they allude to sleeping together but indirectly and in the most g rated unimportant way.

so to make up for this drama. If you have watched this but missed out in those youthful energy, passion of the youth and romance that makes you at the edge of your seat I will also cross reference you to check out. "GO GO SQUID"
