If this drama was solely focus on the lives of 4 best friends and their love interests, then this would've been a smooth and simple drama but at last, the writing for this drama was pretty boring and frustrating.
The good part: I love how they showcase the friendship in this drama. You see the history of how they become best friends and how they rely and support each other even through the midst of hardship and arguments. That's true friendship right there. The cast for the 4 best friends are great. They are good at portraying their emotions. This drama also uses a bit more music than your typical Chinese drama. I gave music a 10 because all of the songs were great and there was never a moment I skip the music, the intro and ending credit.
Now for the bad parts of this drama: The female lead's character Lin Zi Yu ruins this drama to be honest. There were a few moments where she had her strong points but overall, she was a weak, frustrating, & pathetic character. Poor writing on her character. She was not likable to me as she keeps hurting the male lead, Shu Chen's heart several times. The character Luo Zong Liang should've had a character change long time ago and not at the very last minute. The misunderstanding of him being framed could've been resolved which would've led to his hatred towards Shu Chen ended a lot earlier. The plot could've been finding the real culprit behind the misunderstanding by working together. That would've made it a bit more interesting.
Romance, while there were some cute moments, it wasn't enough to support his drama overall. The romance was very lacking and not that great. At the end, a wedding to celebrate Xuan Li & Yi Han's breakup? That's not a creative idea but just lame in my opinion. It loses the whole meaning of a wedding. Shu Chen and Zi Yu had some cute moments together but not enough and again I blame the character Zi Yu for not getting her act together this whole drama. Wei Cong & Yang Yang were cute together as well but again, not enough moments together with them as a couple since they got together like around Ep 35. I mean even Yang Yang's assistant spent more time with her and I thought they were going to be a couple more than Yang Yang with Wei Cong. Don't even get me started with Xuan Li & Yi Han. Just a toxic relationship. The guy cheats several time and the girl forgives him so easily. The leads have a hard time with their relationship but this couple just brush it off just like that with a "I forgive you" after all of that cheating. Again bad writing.
I honestly only watched this because of Leon Zhang. He's one of my favorite C-drama actors. It's too bad this drama's writing & plot didn't do justice for him even though he acted pretty well. If I were to rewatch this I would just watch the cute and happy moments with scenes of the 4 best friends because the plot overall is dull and it seems like the good guys just can't win for a good while.
