The best way i can describe this movie is that its a b movie plot with the budget of a blockbuster. Everything just seemed like ot needed to be thought out more and their is just something missing from all of it. The plot is clichè and done to death. The romance is a stretch, they only speakto eachother about 3 times. Im not sure if it's an actor or a direction issues but all the actors come of wooden. Its most likely a combination of both. If your a die hard luhan fan watch it if not skip it.Was this review helpful to you?

I really enjoyed this show from start to finish and can see why so many people have raved about it. While the show has a lot of drama tropes and story lines that have been done before but it does them in the best way possible and it never feels forced or out of place. The two main leads and an incredible chemistry and there relationship develops in a way that makes me what to see them be together the whole way through. A big plus for me was the main male lead Shangyan, many times in shows like this kind of character is cold and really has no other character traits until the main female lead changes him. This show took this in a different direction, yes shanyan is cold in the beginning but even from the first episode you see these moment of warmth and I always prefers characters like this. Other benefits are that there was no forced love triangle. This last point is an angle I'm glad the show went with, their really is no villain in this show. All the characters are just people living there lives no one is being malicious. It just people growing and learning more about themselves and each other without some cartoon character coming in and trying to destroy them . Overall, this has been the best romance of the year in my opinion and just an all around joy to watch Was this review helpful to you?

At the very start I was really on board with this show. The story sounds interesting on paper and the actors where doing their best with the materiel that was given. However, as the show when on it took a turn. This show has an interesting plot on paper whoever, I feel the writers didn't really know what to do with the plot and character after the two leads got together the first time. After this the show devolves into someones does not like the two main leads relationship two leads fight break up for the episode, make up get back together and then break up again the next episode. Repeat this for about 10 episodes. Toward the end of the series the writers also decide to throw in a bunch of cliche drama story plots instead of doing anything to advance the couples relationship. The only character that felt actually had good character development and changed into a better more well rounded person is the second male lead. Overall this show isn't bad just a little boring and had wasted potential. If you're in the mood for a swimming drama just watch My Mr. Mermaid instead Was this review helpful to you?

When reading the description of this show it looked right up my alley. I tend to like these kinds of shows and in the beginning this show really had me. I story was interesting and the actors pull it off really well. Out two leads actually have really good chemistry I found.****SPOILERS***SPOILERS***** SPOILERS****
The biggest problem with this show is that fact that that the male lead made the female lead believe she had cancer when she really didn't. I know that all these shows have to have some kind of liar reveal but this one is one of the worst. For some reason this one rubbed me the wrong way making her believe she was sick just to get her to fake marry you that is really f'ed up. Luckily the show doesn't spend a lot of time on it, she is mad about it fro like an episode and a half, then gets over it and they are back together but when ever I think about this lie I just start to like the main male lead less and the show as a whole less. If you can get over this lie then the show is good but this lie is the deal breaker also understandable and just stir clear of this show.

Is it some kind of masterpiece no but that is not what it set out to be. What it's trying to be is a short little web drama about high school detectives who solve little mysteries and sometimes you just want a show you can finish in a day between watching some more intestine things. If you go in expecting that then you'll have a wonderful time.

The story wasn't massively original or innovative but it wasn't badly written. Yes their were some parts of the story that could have been condensed down and some side stories that could have maybe been cut all together, I get they had to make 36 episode and none of the side plots were bad.
The actors did a really good jobs and all the character made sense and had motivations there was nothing in the story that stood out or was annoying. All the characters where charming in their own way. Unlike in many young love focused shows no one was a massive jerk who you hated every time they were on screen. All the actors had good chemistry especially the two main leads together, as well as the main male lead with his swim team friends they had a really good dynamic.
The music was good and fit with the scenes also the ending song got stuck in my head for a really long time.
tl;dr sweet story, charming cast, fun journey nothing massive amazing but leaves you feeling good. A show that I would good back to when I just want to watch something charming if you feel down
