When I started watching the drama I was not expecting much just a usual Chinese contemporary romance with comedy elements. The first like 6 episodes were a bit messy and even cringe-worthy in parts to be honest. However as soon as the ML learned the FL’s identity and they became a couple I got hooked and enjoyed it a lot to the very end.
The main reason is that I liked the FL a lot. I think the choice of the actress is perfect. She is very believable as a competent and highly professional assistant. The character herself is such a smart girl, very confident and brave, but not bitchy, not naïve. I like the way she stoically fought for her love without being clingy or humiliating herself.
I was not a big fan of the ML. He was irritating sometimes. However I liked their couple a lot. They seemed like a real one and had sincere deep feelings for each other. They looked comfortable in each other’s arms. And the kisses were very steamy.
I also liked the amount of screentime the main couple had together. I hate when the couple spends 2/3 of the drama separated and gets together in the last episode. Here it was certainly not so. They spent much time with each other and communicated a lot. And their happy times made me happy while their separation was really painful to watch.
The other two couples were not that interesting, the doctor and the FL’s colleague were adorable but never developed enough. The SML and SFL together felt like an afterthought though at least the SML who was such a nice guy got a love interest of his own and not just suffered a heartbreak because of the FL.
The comedy elements were done nicely too. The ML and the SML were both hilarious. The wedding episode is such a gem.
I did not even mind the excessive use of amnesia here. It was somewhat justified.
The OST was pleasant though nothing special; maybe one song caught my attention.
I rarely rewatch dramas even the favorite ones but I think I may rewatch some episodes of the Well dominated love some day.
