One of the best police cdrama!
Very good performance from the 3 leads.
I love the main couple and would have loved to see just better flow and maybe more moments between them in the show. Their relationship should have been more developed, I would have loved to see how they progressed from newlyweds that did not know each other to a couple in love with each other's. I feel like they did not give them enough time before the reappearance of Jiang Cheng. However, you could see the struggle for Zhou Jin, when it came to the reveal of Jiang Cheng as the under cover police. I felt the conflict and the hurt in her when she had to tell him that she moved on. He expected her to wait and not to move on. Maybe it would have been the case if it wasn't Hansheng that proposed to her. If there was someone that loved Zhou Jin more than Jiang Cheng, it's Hansheng. He said it himself to Zhou Jin, that "he loved her too obsessively" but he still was willing to let her go if JC was going to make her happier. I liked that ZJ reassured HC and told him that she loved him. Overall, the acting was great!! The tension was so good.
The villain was very convincing. The actor did such a good job! I feel like the director could have just added a bit more tension and played with music to make his performance more intense. The actor did however an amazing job.
The actor playing Jiang Cheng was not a discovery for me but his role and performance was really not a let down. I will remember his performance for a long time, the fear of this never ending mission, guilt for the sacrifice of the other officer for his mission, the feeling of despair, of being stuck, of not being able to live as himself... his character's ending was happy but at the same time, I feel like he lost everything.
This drama is a ten for me but the ending was a bit rushed. Overall pleasantly surprised. I also discovered Elvira Cai and I love her. I already was a fan of Jing Boran.
Absolutely recommend everyone that likes crime drama and romance to see it. I will also read the book. I am a fan!
