firstly, I don’t watch modern cdramas. watched this because I’m currently going through Allen’s list of dramas and because I’ve watched Burning Flames and wasn’t a fan of the CP there, I wish to see how their chemistry fares.

main leads have good chemistry. however second main leads were amazing! love them and every of their scenes made me laughed out loud. at the end, her confession made me cry and touched.

storyline wise, it was ok until I reached around ep30ish when story started to drag, especially Xiao Ning’s parents and the embezzlement issue. it lingers in the background for too long that I lost interest in those scenes.

the scenes between Chuan and Xiao Ning after they got together, also felt too long and dragged. this series should either be a 24 or 30 episodes long.

about the mechanical heart. I mean I don’t get it. the main doctor is gone and the assistant have no materials to refer how to update the heart? then in the end, she established her own research team and they able to salvage all this mess? sorry, this sounds so fairytale like. I wouldn’t want Chuan to die because it defeats the purpose. at least, they should spend some of the scenes focusing how they able to save him or something.

acting wise. Xing fei, I don’t know what happened to her in Burning Flames but she’s very likeable here. her cheerful and bubbly character won me over.

Allen. I think after bingeing 3 shows from him, I’ve grown accustomed to his line delivery. his name here Chuan, can also panting or gasp for breath. lol, how irony. it’s funny that as much as I’m not satisfied with his delivery, I just like how he delivers his image of Gu Chuan.
