wonderful premise, executed like a dying snail on tranquilizers
I watched the series because it had some interesting recommendations. I need to learn not to do that. I actually wandered into this because I was looking up a series that I had very much enjoyed called Dear Hyeri. A series that has awful recommendations and actually made me go looking for something else instead of revisiting it. I'm going to go revisit it after the torture I just went through. It's unique and the pieces all fit together. I do recommend that series.
Okay to start with if you want to watch this series, because it does have an actual cool premise, skip the first six episodes. You will miss nothing.
The acting in this thing was average at best. There were standouts. The female that played Yu He made a good impression on me she got her point across with her expressions and it was a highlight. The woman that played the mom was also good at what she was doing. The actor that played the older brother did a good job. Everybody else was a step above wooden. Although the kissing scenes were decent for both the first set of leads and second set of leads. So that was nice.
The story, intriguing and unusual concept, that the production team made so boring and tedious and dragging that sitting through it was basically masochism. I hate abandoning something when I start watching it so I watched it all the way through. Like I said earlier, you can skip the first six episodes and miss nothing. And the final six episodes could have been cut by at least one and a half episodes worth of filler.
The music was actually pleasant. It was a nice background that accompanied the storyline, so that was okay.
I don't expect I would ever watch this thing again. But I would take my own advice and pick it up at episode 7 and then I'd be fast forwarding a lot because it was awful; with these little specks of interesting pieces.
