An updated, upgraded version to "A Round Trip to Love"
This version created a new story for a long-standing, complex relationship.
it's a maze that hits walls, but sweeps you in, and managed to convey so much emotions, love and intimacy.
\\\\\\\\\\\\
- Let's talk about Zhu Sha (Lu Fang's sister) for a moment. Although she was often realistic and cold with Lu Fang, and chose to manage all the family business alone, she always took care of him throughout the years. excellent Supporting character.
Needs improvement:
- My OCD wanted to fix Yi Chen's messy hair so many times during the series.
- Episode 4, ( 05:36 ) Lu Fang broke character a bit.
- The scene where Yi Chen loads food, it's not necessary, they don't have to eat for real, they can pretend, that's why it's called "acting". Eating in front of camera too much is often looks as impolite.
- Another thing that was unnecessary, is massive smoking as self-harm. Find another way to express stress or nervousness without absorbing so many unrealistic disturbing amount of chemicals.
(By the way, I don't know why chinese in series encourage their young viewers to get addicted to cigarettes, as a shallow gimmick. Especially since most of the viewers who watch BL are self-awareness/ dominant teenage girls, addicted to skincare routines and matcha drinks.)
- There were parts that would have been better without the theme song. Just a clean instrumental in the background would have been less overpowering.
