I'm surprised you think Seven was not a good casting, cause I first saw her in another hs drama (With You) one…
Yeah I can understand why it's not bothering others because she can definitely do her part acting wise but it's the image that just bugged me way too much. I could visually see the age difference between her and her costars and her playing as an immature minor didn't help either I was just not feeling it. She was not the deciding factor for me to stop watching tho it was everything combined that I had mentioned. I would like to check her out in a different role some time
I think Seven Tan as Jian Jian was a good cast, she does look a lot younger than her age and with that puding…
Hmm I personally disagree, she can definitely take a role that's younger than her actual age but I wasn't feeling this one. And yeah I didn't finish watching it. What was the reason the mom stayed away?
Overrated. I can see why people like it cuz there's plenty of elements to enjoy about it but the bad outweighs the good.
The casting. Out of the 3 childhood friends Ziqiu was the only one who's casting was spot on. Not only is he a great actor, he just really fitted the role compared to his costars. The female lead is a 30 year old actress playing a (very immature) 16 year old. The image just doesn't fit. There's a time skip later on but still. And the other childhood guy well, the only thing he got going for him were his looks. The dynamics between the 3 is just odd I don't know how to put it. I couldn't help but compare them to the trio of Someday or One Day which is a great example of how it should be done.
Storywise it's definitely interesting. I love the found family trope as well. One thing I didn't like tho is how bad the image of women is in this drama, it's like all the adult female characters were evil people. But that's not what my main bother was, the reason I stopped watching is because of what was coming. The childhood friends turned siblings turned lovers like really?? This honestly could've been a fun family drama to me if they didn't go the incestious route and if they had swapped the 2 main actors.
Currently on episode 5 and I'm enjoying this so much. What other works of Bakarhythm should I check out? I've seen Satsui no Michinori which was great too
Tysm HPriest for picking this up it was great! Seeing a pattern now that I really love quirky dramas like this and Oliver Na Inu, if anyone has recommendations like these pls lmk :)
