I feel like this show had potential and I quite liked the first five episodes, but this does not mean that the show does not have its own flaws. Sometimes it seemed like the trio were on a road trip instead of running away because Neo seemed too cherry and chill-chill, and Shin was all about me-meh; and/or both the villains were at time reckless. Why road trip? Because the story did not really move forward until something tragic happened that triggered Neo's reaction to facing reality realizing that he needs to finish and end this once and for all; starts his little short mini training and goes solo. Why were the villains reckless? Well, first villain was strangled to death by second villain's people in a barber shop, yes, in a barber shop. And, I thought first villain had more money, and more power as that was what was emphasized by the two villains. How the heck did first villain get killed so easily let alone prior to this getting shot in the leg in his really tight, tight, tight top security home? Now, lets not forget about the second villain. Idk why he had to be killed by Mae? Where were his guards at that time? How in the world did Mae find his secret hideout where he took the trio? Mae could not even track the trio down herself let alone a gang leader.

Another thing that I did not like was the dragged out relationship between Neo, Shin, and Miw. It became quite the focal point of the show. I did not mind that they all had a correlation of some sort of a past, present or future together, but I wanted this clarification to end once they all had that confirmation or acknowledgement. TBH, I found Shin's character quite annoying because he kept wanting reaffirmation of where he stands in the relationship or how important he is to Neo. If Shin was actually a GIRL instead of a BOY, I wondered if this character would have received the same amount of love from the audience in comparison to Tay. They had Neo stringing along Miw and Shin, which annoys the heck out of me because apparently he loves them both, but you always love something more than the other. If you watch the show then you can tell that Neo treats Miw really differently from Shin especially his gaze and his jealousy, which is why I get confused as to what his intention was in saying that he loved them both. If they all had a friendly relationship where they all loved each other like friends or family then I can get by with this, but NOPE they all (at least in Shin's or Neo's case) wanted something from the other and I did not like the show for milking this relationship.

I started this drama because of Joss and he's able to keep my gaze lock down on him throughout the entire show, but I ended up falling for Mild's character, Miw. I am not a big fan of Mild, but her character Miw is definitely one of the reason why I stayed with this show. Other people may have their own reasons, but my reason was Miw. Miw was pretty much an all around character that you just want to root for since she was not attached to anything, but gives her best at everything. She was blunt and bad ass; like she herself said, she saved Neo twice even if this event of saving him brought her back to her traumatic past. If Miw did not pull that trigger, Neo would have been dead by the first episode. I am able to sympathize with Miw since she was the only one running from a true traumatic past events leading to who she is today. It changed her, but it also made her stronger. She puts her own happiness and well-being before others, but this does not mean that she is completely heartless or uncaring. She does more of giving advice sometimes in a blunt way, enabling the action or is the brain, and following through with her plans. One thing I love about her is that she does not need a man to make her know her own self worth because she never chased after Neo nor tie herself down to a guy. It was only towards the end where she finally lets everything go, thought of what she really wanted, and chased after her own happiness.

Yan Zi Xian looking smoldering hot in a suit is all I need.

I started this drama because of Yan Zi Xian and stayed for him. He was really hot in here, but sadly his female lead pales in comparison. I felt like the director wanted someone looking exotic/seductress for the FL, but the FL actress was nothing like that and instead I kept getting distracted by her looking plastic and old, and actually having more of the villian look.

The good things.
1) Yang Zi Xian is hot in his suit!
2) The leads definitely had chemistry together. They made me believe that they were a couple. It was like, "Damn, I wish I was the FL!" because of the way how ML looked at her.

The bad things.
1) The leads already knew eachother and were an item so there were no hype or anticipation towards the falling in love part.
2) The ML does warn off the 2nd FL about FL, yet at times, he seems affected by her and choose her over FL though not intentional, but still...
3) It got boring when ML found out about FL's revenge and started his opium crack. I kept waiting for something to angst up their relationship and improve it, but it just went flatline out.
4) IDK how FL started her own mental cover up story when she already thought ML was the culprit and stabbed him. They never got a chance to talk it out.
5) IDK how the villian came to be like how he was or obsessed. It was weird. No conclusion on this part. I feel like they just wrote the villian's character because they needed one.

All in all, it was a pretty mediocre drama with some enjoyable scenes, but it also had its flaws.
