Great looking casts, super sweet, but felt a bit draggy and rushed at the same time.

I definitely don't regret watching this drama, and I can see why it enjoyed such high ratings on MDL- the casts are GORGEOUS, kiss scenes (super important) were great, and there was side character development.

However, my main sticking point with this story was how abruptly the main leads' romance developed-it felt like one moment the ML wasn't into her and suddenly he was, and this is alongside some other random plot introductions that didn't really make sense to me and was just there for the sake of it. And yet, this is a 24-ep drama, that I felt could be trimmed to something like 20 if the editing and sequencing made a bit more sense, and if there was more intense buildup of the main's romance. THAT is my core issue - Intense Love did not feel intense enough.

Major plot points (usually antagonistic) also felt like they were shoehorned into it, and I didn't like that because it felt like they added it in for the sake of the story.

That being said, overall, worth a watch, Zhang Yuxi and Ding Yuxi reprised their roles very well and they look so good on camera. Not the best C-drama I've watched, but definitely better than most. A solid 7 from me!
