puppy love

Mild spoiler!











There seems to be a major inconsistency regarding the lead characters' ages, either due to a writing error or a subtitle mistake. The male lead is currently 22 years old, while the female lead is 32. It's mentioned that they first met 10 years ago, which would mean he was only 12 and she was 22 at the time. However, this doesn't match the storyline, as their past interactions clearly depict them as being much closer in age, not a child and an adult.

It's the classic concept: when someone is in your life, you often fail to value them. But once they’re gone, you realize their worth. Unfortunately, this creates an opportunity for someone else, someone who has always loved them sincerely and wants to cherish them for a lifetime, to step in and win their heart.

I believe both male leads are of the same age, so the dynamic of seniority or junior status doesn’t come through naturally. The casting should have been done more thoughtfully to clearly reflect the intended age and hierarchy differences.

Overall, the drama is quite enjoyable. The couple shares a sweet relationship, it's that innocent, heartwarming kind of puppy love.

Mentionable things : FL and ML mother is good.

In this drama, your math skill was not required

I watched this long time ago and tried to rewatch again. The story is kind of generic plot on duanju. FL found her husband got affair with SFL and she want divorce. ML helps FL and ask her for marriage FL reluctantly accept. Chen Yun Ting character are quite good but Meng Lu character lacks charm beside being older woman. SML aka FL ex husband has quite weird logic why he think FL divorce him and she want him while he cheats. I really hate when man talks "We just did what usual man do" at infidelity.

I am not good at math but their age was confusing. How ML work on FL company ten years ago while his current age was 22 years old. Is child labor illegal in China? Scriptwriter needs to learn math for character age.

Only recommended for fans of the actor. Not worth to rewatch.
