Strong, Resilient & Inspiring Growth
It’s a fantastic drama, and still a very good ending. But honestly, this drama really needs another season. It is just too good to end here. This feels like only the beginning, to be honest. There is still so much character development left, and we want to see more of these characters. There are a lot of possibilities and storylines still left to explore.
I especially loved the main characterGu Xu & Lin Shuang, was absolutely fantastic in this role. She just nailed the character completely. Her performance was so poised, calm, smart, impactful, and incredibly authentic. She had such a strong yet subtle screen presence, and every scene with her felt meaningful.
. However, I have to be honest, I think Jenny Zhang who played Jiang Xi is a completely miscast. She couldn’t portray the character very well, especially the emotional transformation and the deeper layers of the role. It just didn’t fully land the way it should have.
And about the antagonist Wei Ming, that guy really pulled off such a brilliant character. You hate him from your bones, and that shows how well the actor performed the role. He was excellent.
Overall, this is such a wholesome drama, beautifully written, with strong performances and characters that make you want another season immediately. 8
