From my point of view, this story is about broken people who make many mistakes until they finally find peace with the consequences of their choices. I also think it highlights how strongly family influence can interfere in someone’s life.
The overall narrative is quite obsessive, toxic, and often dangerous. The characters go through a lot, but in the end they still manage to find a way to be together, and, in my opinion, that is exactly what the story wanted to convey.
My favorite part is how the show actually addresses Lu Feng’s mental health condition (which I don’t think is bipolar disorder, but he clearly struggles with something). I also appreciate how it shows him receiving treatment and makes it clear that he will need to continue taking medication and managing it long-term.
The actors are splendid and have beautiful chemistry, which definitely elevates the show even further.
Overall, I think it is a good show, but for obvious reasons—since it becomes quite dark at certain points—it is not for everyone. I would describe it more as a dark romance than a traditional romance, and more of a drama above all else.
