Back to 1989 Episode 16

**Spoiler alert** characters painfully ignorant

Watching this with my mom right now.... and seriously would not finish this if it were not for her wanting to keep watching. Can not stand the ditzy female lead (Ye Zhen Zhen) and her obsessive/crazy behavior with the male lead (Chen Che) even though he rejects her multiple times. Also, Chen Che has the goal of hopefully making his mother’s (ya Juan) life happier in the future by keeping watch over her when he goes back to 1989, but seriously the chain of events that lead to the “incident” could have easily been prevented. The writers should have done a better job of making a more believable build up. Also Chen Che is supposed to be super smart, yet it takes him a painfully long time to figure out what happened on Xmas day and how he was conceived.... Probably cuz they try to awkwardly alternate in the whole love Ye Zhen Zhen/Chen Che love story while the mom (ya Juan) is going through her crisis. Honestly can’t wait until I’m done with this drama. Makes me very weary to start any other Taiwanese dramas, since this one is one of the most highly rated ones ????
