I see Rapunzel has already answered with quite a few details.
To add, another example is the second male lead is one day still pining for the main female lead and the next day is suddenly in love with another. The way the relationship between the main leads progressed was also written in a wicky-wack way, very inconsistent, though by now I don't remember the details.
They tried to explain some behaviour by bad parents but, I feel, they failed spectacularly to do this in the right way.
Completing a show, a book, a project or something else because of the time/money already spent and the feeling that otherwise it will have been wasted is known as sunk cost fallacy. Many years ago I used to waste lots of my time because of this fallacy. But what really matters is the future and the future consequences. So not any longer!
Anyway, your review somehow makes me want to check this drama out. :) I can drop it any time if it is unbearably bad even to have it on as a bacground for my crafts.
The female lead is written as a very unreasonable, even stupid and definitely spoiled woman. And instead of spicing things up, her character ends up making more than one scene unbearably annoying.
By the way, is it only for me or was this drama completely removed from multiple platforms? Weirdly, on Viki I still have it in my queue but only Episode 6, which is my last episode watched there. But when I try to search for the drama it does not show in the results, neither do I see the drama in the list of Caesar Wu’s dramas. Not even among those marked as not available in my region. So it seems the drama has been completely wiped. But what about the hanging Episode 6, which I can still watch with no issues?
On YT, too, no results with English subtitles for me. Only with Indonesian and Spanish. Luckily, I know Spanish, so I can continue watching, because my Chinese is very basic.
Lee Su Ho. That's about right personalitywise. Though I'd rather take a role to play somebody with a character completely different from mine. I'm up for a challenge!
Nevermind..filming vertically lol... This is for ppl who have eyes up and down...
Filmed vertically for quick consumption on mobile. And here I am watching these verticals on my huge computer monitor while catching up on my knitting projects. O tempora, o mores! What a waste of screen space. :) And, unfortunately, time, or at least a portion of time. :(
Watching episode 1 I can’t get rid of the feeling I’m watching one of those Chinese vertical dramas, including slapping and extremely toxic family. Just that it’s not vertical and the production value is high!
Good untill around episode 19 when all that supposedly grown-up but actually very childish melodrama started with exagerated tragic moments. There were moments where I felt like I was watching one of those vertical dramas, minus the slapping. The last two episodes just wrapped up the story leaning heavily on cliche after cliche after cliche.
An endless river of tears that reaches truly Amazonian proportions by the last five or four episodes. The constant look of oh so noble and suffering madonna on the female lead’s face got tiresome fast.

For a fee it's available on ViX and Amazon Prime.
By the way, I'm planning to open the tournament for second votes later on. :)
