I feel like I need to justify giving this one such a high rating. If I’m being completely honest, it’s deeply, like deeeply flawed. There were moments I could barely get through, and yet… we had a real gem of a story here. This should have been a movie, with some polishing and attention to detail, the potential was THERE.

The final episode won me over, it carried so much weight that I ended up rating the whole thing based on that. I don’t want to review just the last episode, but honestly, I’d rate it even higher than the whole drama.

The rest of the series was chaotic, extremely messy at times and the story-line often felt odd. I’ll admit, I lost focus here and there, so maybe some parts were more logical than I noticed… but my mind was wandering. Not even the abs nor some of the best shoulders I’ve ever seen (Hsia Te damn man, I need your workout routine) could keep me glued to the screen.

That said, the base of the story was decent, and the emotions somehow really shone through. So don’t judge me because I have such a soft spot for stories with even a spark of an idea, even if it’s not the most original one. I’m especially weak on sacrifice for love. That’s all I’ve got—make of it what you will. :)
