Love Keeps Going Episode 11

Back on track!

After a somewhat disappointing episode, I liked the new developments in this one. Yi Lei's condition is deteriorating and he wants to suffer alone. It's not good that he has decided to fight his condition on his own than telling Mei Li about it. Mei Li's departure will give him the perfect opportunity to push her away "for her own good". This is a big cliche in every single drama or movie where an illness plot is incorporated. Thankfully, this manages to keep my attention alive because otherwise I find plots revolving around death or illness boring to watch.

Yi Lei's character has great depths. He is definitely my favourite character of all. While Mei Li's sister-pretension plot is guillable, it provides as a good plot device for some last moment twists and turns which maintains the level of interest in me.

Another great incident in this episode was Xuan Xuan's accidental attack! The writer managed to let her remain as pathetic and pitiful as ever. She is in fact a bad caricature of a villainesque female. I do hope they continue this particular sub-plot, because it provides for some black comedic relief.
