I'm not going to lie so I'm going to say that two of the biggest reasons for watching this drama at first was Chris Wu and the synopsis that involved music. Turns out that this one is probably one of the most decent and spectacular Taiwanese dramas I've seen up to date. Although what I just said may sound like I'm over exaggerating considering that the story of this drama is not something stunning, however the presentation of the story was off the charts. I think this drama did a great job of taking a typical story about people with big dreams and turning it into something that gives us the emotional feels inside.
Next, simply put, the acting of the cast was just so well done. Of course I adored Chris Wu's acting because I feel like every part of him could act. Kimi did a great job and didn't make me want to barf like some other T-drama leads. Yes at first, her character made me feel really vexed because it was too "over" but it made great developments as the drama went on. Nita and Mike did a decent job with their acting too. Actually, the supporting cast and staff were so awesome in this drama.
The music in this drama is freakin' mind-numbing. I don't think I've ever listed to an opening song so much from a Taiwanese drama in my life. You're the Only One by Mayday is now one of my favorite songs and will forever remain so. Now I started to take notice of Mayday ever since I found out that they were behind this song. The other songs from this drama such as the ending by Jia Jia is so nice to hear too. It is one of those slow songs that that I actually like listening to which is rare.
Even though this is a Chris Wu drama, this drama portrays a journey and it is very hard to capture those same feelings when watching this drama again.
Overall this drama got a lot of things right from the start. It is an all-round recommended T-drama to watch and will not bore the hell out of you.
