What a coaster ride from start to finish
This series sure has it ups and down, the characters where complex and calculating. Lots of surprising twist, the character Lu Xiao Fan was quite a surprise in character development, what was presented in the beginning was not was we see at the end. Bei Lu Qing, a character that is straight forward of what you see on screen but also underneath the exterior lays a caring person that will do everything to protect the one he loves eventhough it’s seems to hurt the one he try to protect. The shameful Lu family always calculating and greedy, using their youngest son as a step ladder to improve their lives, with family like that Xiao Fan is better off familyless. A great series from start to finish, I’m hoping for a special to see what happens to the characters especially our main leadsWas this review helpful to you?
Waste of time
The story started out fine but as the episodes progressed you find out that the ML issues goes much deeper and you know that at the end something terrible is going to happen. Watching the ML personality going from happy to an depressed state was hard to watch. The FL character was all over the place with her constant childish behavior was at time too much. The secondary couple and third couple was fun to watch. That being said the ending was just awful, 36 episodes and the audience got dooped at the end. The writers should have least give the audience closure by producing a body at the end.Was this review helpful to you?

More focused on the female recruits
The series could have been better, if they focused more on the unit itself instead of the female recruits. The majority of the series focused on the female soilders with their petty infighting amongst each other and their shenanigans. All the females have issues that they must overcome especially the FL with her huge arrogance, annoying and self righteous attitude. The action sequences was top notch and the training was amazing. The series had so much filler dealing with the FL problems that the story of the terrorist seems to take back stage.Was this review helpful to you?
Cute at it core
The story was just ok, the rewatch value is only once for me, the writers could have done much more with the characters and the story. Some of the characters that was introduced early on just faded away without explanation like the bullies. I thought the writers would have given the viewers more animals characters instead just the penguin and black panther. Love the side characters that was introduced that help our main couple. There were some dark moments in this series that explore the trafficking of animals that was the core of this series.Was this review helpful to you?
Lazy rich mother is selfish, hope she get a clue
The foods presented was amazing, the characters not so much. You have three main characters that has issues of their own combined with side characters that are problematic especially the FL’s mom. The mother was pure selfish to the core, rich she maybe with no brains or skills of any kind but to think everyone is beneath her even her staff that has been with her for 20 years. How can the mother not learn to swollow her pride when she was left with nothing and try to learn a trade to sustain herself. The true hero of this series is Doo Chil Seong, he transformed his character from being a despised loan shark to a kind heart person that helped our out of the job chef Seo Poong to regain his chef title at the hotel where he was fired. Chil Seong also helped an out and down heiress and her family while the father was in jail. He also wanted his minions to get out of the gangster lifestyle and have a skill that would sustain them. What kind of ending was that, I think the audience deserves a better ending than what we got.Was this review helpful to you?

Villiany pays off
Finally finish watching this drama, overall it was an 8 for me, the main FL was at time annoying and stupid, constantly getting played by the villains. The soildiers lack communication skills, always passing the buck from one person to another. The ML had the chance to kill off the villians but don’t while the villains kills everyone on site without a second glance. There is one villian that got away Scot free and he was the one that did the most harm to everyone. The music score was top notch so was the visuals. The side characters were at time more enjoyable to watch than the main leads.Was this review helpful to you?
Watching Wet Paint To Dry
If your into females acting crazy, stalking and being delusional this series is for you. Watching most of the female characters go crazy for the ML was just to crazy. Having a very low self respect for your self trying to please a playboy was also too painful at times to watch. The writers didn’t deliver with a satisfying ending for our main leads with all the misunderstanding and lies our main couple had to deal with throughout the series. The friendships built between our main leads and their dorm mates was wonderful to see. If the writers could have given us two additional episodes that dealt mainly between our main leads after they reunited after several years apart could have been better than just ending the scene that they just gave the viewers.Was this review helpful to you?
Skip this if you can
The story was ok, nothing to exciting and the characters where just bad especially from the FL. The FL is full of arrogance and is ass kisser and very naive. We have athletes that would do anything to win even sabotage their teammates equipment to athletes that are spoiled that can’t take care of themselves. The love interest between the FL and ML was just too boring and really nothing to write home about. There are characters that deserved what they got at the end of the series. The only good thing is the characters of Fang Chao and his parents to the coaches in this series.Was this review helpful to you?
FL is a drama queen
The ML and SML deserves better than the FL. The FL character really didn’t change much from beginning to end, she was still much a materialistic character. She had no sense of responsibility when it comes to paying the ML back for all he has given her. What pissed me off was someone offered their place for you to stay but she never really follow the ML rules when it came to living there. The FL like to use people whenever she gets into trouble or needs help by acting cute and acting stupid. Her priorities are all screwed up, when she was robbed in England and instead of going to the police station she decided that a purse that she saw was more inportant. And why do she need 4 pairs of slippers? Another thing that don’t make any sense in this series, where did the FL get a change of clothes when she was in England finding her father at the house where she thought he was? She didn’t bring any luggage or overnight bag when she found out where her was was hiding.Was this review helpful to you?

Japanese people sure come up with fascinating titles
One sure things, Japanese people sure come up with fascinating titles to capture the audience attention. The storyline says it all, the characters are adorable and lovable. A small glimpse of a relationship with a huge age gap and how each character navigate with their pov. The series focuses on how people view the relationship without in your face negative judgment. Communication is the key factor in all relationships no matter the age difference, without honest communication all relationships are sure to fail. The series was fun to watch, I wish the running time for each episode was longer.Was this review helpful to you?

Epic Love Story
If I can give this series a higher grading I would, the story and production was top notch. The characters are complex with each having their point of view of what social class should be. Love has no social standing, the heart wants what the heart wants which brings us to our main characters Tin & Phob. Their forbidden love is the center of this series, can their love withstand the social class pressures when their love is discovered by Prince Vasin and Nual of each respective households. Phob must battle his love for Tin on two fronts, Tin’s family and his mother who thinks being a servant to the Varakulvathin family is their duty.Was this review helpful to you?
One action leads decades of pain
The story was good, the characters were complex and sad. One action from a bully lead to decades of pain for the victim and loss. Being arrogant and thinking your beyond the law will always lead to your downfall. When your moto is weak gets eaten up and it just business, you better make sure you have the stuff to back it up because no one can stay on top forever, there will always be someone to take your place at the top. Revenge is best served stages and it can’t be rushed. The music for this series was exceptional.Was this review helpful to you?
