First of all, I wasn't expecting a steamy love scene in episode 2. Secondly, I wasn't expecting said love scene to make me laugh my butt off from all the not-so-subtle imagery of rockets and trains and tunnels and jets.... I've watched enough TW dramas to have fairly low expectations when I start a new one. I was pleasantly surprised by this one. At first, I didn't like Chen Xin Yi's mom and sisters, but eventually their rapid-fire "discussions" became hilarious. Ji Cun Xi's granny was also funny and I really liked her. I thought the acting was, for the most part, really good and the OTP had great chemistry. Unfortunately, about 2/3 of the way into the drama, I'd had enough of Anna and I really wanted to just shoot her through my computer screen. Somewhere around the last 2-3 episodes, I wanted to shoot the writer of the series, because it was definitely, absolutely, being dragged out waaaaaaaaay too long, to the point where I was just plain annoyed that the show wasn't over yet. Get to the happy-ever-after ending already! Geez! Overall, I don't have the patience to re-watch the entire drama, but I'll probably re-visit my favorite scenes from time to time.
