Like most MangoTV productions, this dating show is enjoyable enough if you simply want something to watch and you already enjoy dating shows. However, it’s not a particularly big or impressive production, and the interactions between the contestants aren’t especially exciting.

One thing I did enjoy was the involvement of the contestants’ mothers. I like dating shows that bring the parents into the experience because it gives you a little more insight into the contestants and, in a way, makes them feel more genuine.

The show is also heavily edited, and aside from the main couple, who consistently chose each other from beginning to end, I wasn’t particularly invested in the other relationships.

My favorite girl was Meng Jiaye. She’s very blunt, sometimes almost too blunt, but for some reason, I find that personality really appealing. She stood out to me more than the other contestants, even when her straightforwardness was a little much.
