Started off strong but went downhill after a while.
Plot armours for the fl but I'm not complaining in fact I'm here for it!!The ml's story got compromised alot and his character became nothing but an aura farmer. idk how half of you are losing your minds over him (pretty privilege i guess)
The chemistry between the fl and ml kinda became meh~ for me after a while and I started skipping their romantic scenes coz I was really not interested.
As for the storyline there are too many plotholes and it felt like the screenwriter half assed the side characters storyline, which weakens the overall narrative, and it resulted in the drama becoming uninteresting and generic. A show in which only the main ones are the "good guys" and get a happy ending while the rest are dust feels very black and white which is BORING and nothing new in cdramas hence, generic.
Poj started off so good and interesting and it's sad how everything went downhill after a while.
Apart from the main characters, side characters are what makes a story more engaging and this drama did not handle their story well.
A portion of the blame goes to the editors as well, some scenes were too poorly edited, weird scene cuts and pickups, and the amount of time given to the steamy scenes of second couple got was unnecessary and it should've been gone to some other characters to fill in the plot holes.
Overall too many aura farming moments, weak story weak characters and weak everything.
To be honest the thing I most enjoyed was the bond between fan changning and bao'er and I was more interested in them and their future story than the Main characters.
everyone has different preferences but I can't help and feel like everyone is in a collective hypnosis with the way this drama is hyped ðŸ˜.
I guess having too many good faces in a show has its perks..

light fun watch
went in it with little to no expectations just to kill some time and I think that helped me appreciating the show more. it was a fun and light watch and some of the scenes were really funny. the starting felt like a vertical low budget drama but later all turned out well. I wish they would've incorporated more 90s thing most of the time it did felt like I'm watching a modern drama set in today's era and not the 90s. i usually disconnect with a show when the main leads start dating or fell in love it becomes boring but surprisingly this was fun and i enjoyed every bit of their dating era as well.Was this review helpful to you?
