Love the cinematography but disliked plot
Its a magazine, in 2020, that is like the weakest subject matter I feel.
When watching this series, it will be compared to "my best friend story" which was aired mid way thru the broadcast of this series, so competition for viewership was fierce during that period. For me "my best friend story" is more of a slice of life drama about 2 friends that will do anything and protect each other. For Dear Missy, it feels ..... that they are friends just because they have to be friends. However this series has the better cinematography and is much brighter.
This series really started off well, but it just lost its wheels for me mid way, especially when there is just so many scenes with Guan yue and Ye Zhou. Their story was so fleshed out that it made viewership lose focus on the 2 FL till it seem frivolous.
Thru out the series I do not feel that Lu ke even loves Zhang mang and chemistry was poor for this pairing. Si yi and yao yuan romance was great to watch from the start, but because they part ways and si yi actually fell for Bai Xiao Chuan with kiss scenes, this resulted in many comments "that being an actress is really not easy when one has to have kiss scenes with an uncle". However the romance of si yi and yao yuan is just too messy and lacks substances due to the lack of development and structure. They just happen to appear, chat and patch up like its magic.
Overall if you watched the first 8-10 episodes and then watch the last 5 episodes. You really arent missing out on much, they are just as happily ever after as from the early episodes and just ended up in pairings.
Its just a romance series where no one died, nothing major happened to any of the cast and its happily ever after.
So for me the best scene in this series is when guest role Hu Xian xu aka Shi guang in "Hikaru no go", asked Juck zhang aka yao yuan if he plays "Go" in a bar (even the theme BGM for that series came on), as he has been searching everywhere for his friend. If you have watched that series, you will get the relation between this pair, because Juck zhang was Chu Ying in that series (Chu ying was the spirit that guided Shi guang to play and love the game of "Go")
