slowburn second chance romance story

i just finished the drama, and i can say this is one of the best cdrama this year. i read the novel before watching this drama, and i assure you, yangyang and wang churan did a great job portraying song yan and xu qin characters. what i loved the most from this story is how flawed this two characters are, as a result from getting hurt in the past. other actors are great too!!! hence 10/10 for the casting!!

for the story, i think it depends on one’s personal preference. this drama had every troupe i personally like; slow burn, second chance romance, angst and head over heels ml, so i really loved how the story goes. the first 10 episodes are very slow, but i think if you can watch it to the end of 10th episode, where xq confront sy, you can really see why xq hesitated to pursue sy. there are many fillers ep too which i think they can cut down to 2 eps, but i still think its watchable.

the reason i cant give this drama full marks is because of the directing and music. i personally think the directing sucks big time (like the camera angles and music cue??) and kinda ruined my watching experience. what makes me going on is bcs of the actors’ performance, especially wang churan and wei daxun.

all in all, FOMH is a very good drama that can be perfect with better directing. i’m aware of the criticism surrounding the drama but i think 80% is just pure hate. so just try and watch this!!!
