A solid 8.0 from me. I have seen enough of this kind of plots that it doesn't surprise me anymore. However, this drama has no surprises at all even if you were new to these kind of dramas. Overall, an 'okay' drama that'll make you feel happy and fluffy at the end.
Well well well. I expected more but it was an alright drama. The CGI ain't great and it definitely ain't good as well, however fortunately it wasn't bad. The story was good. I loved the historical aspect of it because I wanted to know more about their characters instead. The support roles were fun to watch and the main leads did their job well. Overall a good drama that's different enough to keep the audience entertained. A solid 8.5 from me.
Well, can you find love in friendship? That's what the romance between the FL and ML is all about. A romance that's not too cheesy and not too mature. It's a sweet spot that somewhat between the two. Overall, the show is all about finding the right timing, grabbing on to opportunities and amaking sure past mistakes aren't repeated. A solid 8.5 from me.
P.S As a former badminton player, it brings back memories of how fun and challenging the game was for me.
What a disappointment! With a promising start to a boring mid series plot and then to a very poor production quality end. A very fitting 7.0 shall be awarded to this certainly underwhelming series. All this series had me saying was "wow....another scene where they didn't have the budget to get it done'.
what the hell is this ML?????? he have a mistress and a child. Can't hold himself. How is he the ML?? the other…
Actually, ML always treated Minglan like a younger sister. Always watching her from afar. And when given the opportunity he would always try to bring the best out of Minglan (because she always held back due to past experiences). ML understood her situation more than anyone else since he knew what she went through as a child. That's the main reason whenever she smiles and has a good time, ML would also smile and be happy for her from afar. Basically, when SML was pursuing FL and FL was in favor of SML, ML was supportive and was truly happy for her. Everytime that ML saw her, there was a sweet smile on his face. Actually, ML also knew that he himself wasn't good enough for Minglan and that's why he never approached her from the beginning and just kept looking after her like an elder brother(basically, it didn't even cross his mind). Well, things changed afterwards though. ML, who always thought of Minglan as a kid younger sister started to see her as a woman when she showed concern for his daughter, Rong'er. You see, ML was so infatuated and obsessed in finding his only born son that he forgot about his daughter's upbringing. Minglan pointed out this fault without any filter and then ML knew at that moment he couldn't lose her to anyone else. That's how ML started to fall for FL. It's not because of 'puppy love' but because she showed concern for his daughter, a daughter that wasn't her own. The ML who was cruelly betrayed by his former love of his life, saw Minglan as someone who can be trusted, not just as a mother for his daughter but also as a life partner. This is what we call 'mature love' , a form of love that is constant and not just in the heat of the moment. I believe their love story is a well tempered And baked in story. A love story that has a very good foundation.
Enjoyed this drama but far too pure for my liking. After three years, how can a couple still be coy when kissing…
Asians are very conservative. However, there are those who don't follow such cases. If we take the western ideologies, skinship and intimacy between partners are more natural and open than what is seen in asian countries. So even in western dramas, sex and kiss scenes aren't overly dramatized unlike in asian dramas where they take nearly 10 takes/shots of the main couple making their first kiss.
