This drama is not for me, but I would still like to share my thoughts for any others planning to start this series. There is nothing exciting/ notable about the story or characters after 2 episodes. Here is my suggestion, jump to the following clip as a sneakpeak of what is to come. If you think the 5 minute acting and interaction between characters in the hotpot clip in Episode 2 Timer: 33:35 - 38:15 is bearable, be my guest and continue to follow the series.
Story
Initial story is about a mixup of bags between Si Tu Mo and Gu Wei Yi which causes problems for each other. Later on, Gu Wei Yi 'saves' Si Tu Mo from a bad situation which leads to Si Tu Mo wanting to repay Gu Wei Yi by going an extra mile to resolve Gu Wei Yi's current situation. Furthermore, I don't like how the drama uses side characters to be "I just happened to be here at the same spot and time" to drive story and a wedge between the couples (I am looking at you Mr. Physics Teacher)
Acting/Cast/Characters
After watching 2 episodes of the drama, I can confidently say that most characters/casts' acting are bad.
-Fair Xing (Si Tu Mo) is doing her absolute best to give life to her character, but the other casts' acting are so bad, it makes her look like she is doing a terrible job too. (the half a star is for her trying)
- Lin Yi (Gu Wei Yi) is literally a robot. His acting has 3 steps. Step 1. Look to side, Step 2. Say Line, Step 3. Don't blink or Look Around. Having looked at his profile on MDL, he is a total beginner. (Can't say if his acting gets better later on)
- Daddi Tang (Fu Pei)'s character is very cliche. Likes Si Tu Mo but doesn't give 2 cents/ make the effort to chase the girl.
- Also making a point, the random one-time side characters' acting are really bad too.
Music
Since I have only watched 2 episodes of the drama, I cannot comment if the music/ OST are good or not so I just gave an average of 5.
Rewatch Value
I do not recommend.
Why I gave the drama my current rating? (1)
The acting was so atrocious, I had to drop the drama. If the story was interesting, the drama could be redeemable, but the plot is bottom tier too. I am already expecting angry fan-girl replies to this review, but this is my honest opinion.
