There are some twists and turns and was dazed and confused a few times
Well, the drama got off to a fast start with a great first episode. I think the idea of a fake runaway bride is hilarious! One thing I’m still confused about are the sisters. The sister in hiding is supposedly older and has graduated from college. The younger sister finished her freshmen year but they look like identical twins save the hair style.
I don’t know why the FL lied about her identity for almost the entire series. I know she was trying to protect her family at first but she had plenty of opportunities to do the right thing later on (no, I don’t like liars). I loved the romance between the ML and FL but also found the supporting couple very cute.
When the ML finally stood up against his grandfather and was kicked out of the company, I found it laughable that he didn’t have a penny to his name and depended on the FL and others for $$$ and a place to live. The grandfather was a grouchy asshole and it took a near death experience for him to finally appreciate his family.
Everyone hated the evil female actress but I was enamored by her striking appearance and beauty. I hope she lands a lead role soon as I am now a big fan of hers. I felt bad for Pei’s character as he was the only one who didn’t find love (I noticed the actor was also in Nine Kilometers of Love, another drama on my hit list as I am a big Li Ting Ting fan!).
I’m beginning to enjoy Chinese dramas as they are short, 45 minutes or less. I’m also learning Mandarin and watching keeps the language fresh in my mind. I find the romance and kissing more natural than KDs but not crazy sexy like JDs. I’m not sure if I will rewatch this drama but towards the end, I rewatched the first episode and thoroughly enjoyed it and better understood what was going on.
