Ehh, im not mad i watched it but im not jumping to watch it on replay, its like a 7 for me
I ended up caring way more about xiyang and jingyan at the end than anyone else.
Also i dont know what was filmed first but chen he yi completely bombed this one for me. He had 1 expression the entire time. He was waaayyyyyy better in the princess royal
I want to like this but i cant get over the timeline flaws. Theyre supposed to be in the 90s in china. The cars, some of the clothes, office building architecture, even conference rooms and ppt tech seem really unrealistic for that time period. Even the girls' apartment seems very 2015. The complete disregard for the setting and custom design details for the time period continued to poke at me as i was trying to watch and i just couldnt do it.
maybe a product of just 2017 production quality in china plus limited budget. but the acting was also very meh and with voice over made it that much worse... i think it's a good premise and i hope that someone does a reboot using today's production quality and a half decent budget. story could be good.
