Glimmer50 If you think there's some kind of pattern on my page simply because I dropped another drama starring Lin Yi, then you're not very intelligent. It's not my fault he happened to star in two dramas with disappointing production quality. Did I mention anything negative about Lin Yi in my review? Go ahead and show me where. And if I actually had a negative agenda against him, wouldn't I have rated all of his dramas poorly?

As for Ski into Love, it had the same production issues as this drama which was intense bright lighting, poor camera direction, and acting. The biggest issue for me was Esther Yu's performance, particularly her exaggerated baby voice and childish mannerisms, which made it irritating to watch. I dropped it because of HER acting which was the case for many other ppl if you go read those reviews. But hey, if you enjoy watching pretty faces regardless of the acting or production quality, then that's your preference. Just don't confuse your personal enjoyment with an objective assessment of a drama.

I have no "negative agenda" or bias when starting a drama. It's simple, It's either the drama is good or bad. I judge a drama based on its acting, storyline, cinematography, and overall production quality, regardless of who's casted in it. In fact, I enjoyed Lu YuXiao's acting in My Journey to You, so I actually had high expectations for her in this drama. Unfortunately, I don't quite like it here. And I don't see how I had a "negative agenda" If I waited for this drama to release just like most ppl did.

And yes, a drama can absolutely be critiqued within the first 4 episodes. If viewers are expected to wait until the very last episode before forming an opinion, then what's the point of dropping a drama? People drop shows because they've given them a chance, but the first impression and viewing experience fail to keep them interested. A storyline can improve as the drama progresses, but cinematography, directing, lighting, and acting are unlikely to change significantly because those elements are established from the beginning and usually remain consistent throughout the production.

On the other hand, you seem to have already been a big fan before the drama even started, so it's understandable that you're viewing it so positively. But with some fans (maybe you) who are intensely fanatical, you're unable to acknowledge its shortcomings, and apparently anyone who disagrees with you must have a "negative agenda". Maybe consider that not everyone is going to share your opinion. You're entitled to enjoy it, but I'm equally entitled to criticize it. So I hope the viewers don't fall for YOUR biased outlook.😉

The acting, cinematography, and overall plot are incredibly disappointing. The entire drama feels low-budget, and I’ve honestly seen short dramas with much better production quality. There are far too many boring, drawn-out scenes that make it difficult to stay interested. The lighting is also way too bright, which takes away from the overall visual experience. Even direction of the story feels underwhelming, and nothing about the production particularly stands out. Overall, it’s a very disappointing drama that falls short in almost every aspect.

Yeah, I usually stop at episode 8 if I lose interest in a drama but so many people are enjoying this drama so I’m going to try again before completely dropping it.

I tried so hard to watch this but the baby voice and mannerisms are throwing me off. If her character is supposed to act cutesy then I think there is a better way to achieved that than this. Secondly, the cinematography is off as well.
