Great chemistry, messy story...

The premise of the show was very typical in the beginning, but it changed with the 2nd episode which was good. You may question Tuos method because it was more or less forced and that always leaves a bitter taste afterwards. It was not about a confession for Junxi anymore it was about discovering his own feelings, his angst about himself, family and all people around. They also inserted a GL part but did not play it out which is a shame, but maybe that comes with a special episode.

It's a lighthearted show with a focus on the emotional journey, with very incredible chemistry which elevates this show beyond average levels. Also the children were incredible. They added the "past" scenes to give more context which was missing in the original manga and it pays off. That's what I liked most about this show. Of course production quality was also top notch.

There is not much more to say besides, that I liked it and I would recommand this show over many we have had this year.
