I am surprised as I actually enjoyed it

Let me start off by saying, me and C dramas- do not mix well. I usually take very long to complete a drama from three weeks to a year (I kid you not), because I usually get a lull in the series that just doesn't persuade me in continuing with it. For this series, which I started due a seeing a gif on the global space feed, was not the case. I finished this series within less than a week and I must say, I actually enjoyed it!

Story-8.5/10
For me, any series above sixteen episodes is too much ( maybe that's another reason why I don't like to watch C dramas as well). But, I saw a gif and saw the comments and decided 'why not?' And I am glad that I did. I loved the first thirteen episodes so much.

And yes, there was a bit of a lull that I always get when watching C dramas feom episodes fourteen to nineteen, it didn't deter me from wanting to continue watcing this series. It got better at twenty and totally changed the direction that I thought it would at twenty-two to twenty-four.

And I am actually not that mad at the ending (eventhough apparently there is a special episode that I have not watched). I am super glad that Duan Shui Liu and Dragon Lady got thier happy wnding as I was more invested in thier storyline.

Acting/ Cast-9.5/10
They were all just phenomenal, as they were able to make me feel the emotions that they were going through.

Music-8/10
The music was beautiful. And for that I will give it an 8.

Rewatch Valu-9.5/10
I'm going to shock myself and say this, as it is a C drama- yes, I would actually rewatch this series again. Because after finishing this series, I have already started missing these three couples, especially Duan Shui Liu and Dragon Lady.

Overall-9/10
Overall, this series was a nice, entertaining quick watch that I am gong to miss and I am glad that I saw that gif that spurred me into watching this. I would most definitely recommend this series.
