All the actors and actresses in this drama actually did really great. I love all the main casts.
But the story is... another thing. The pacing between episodes and conflict is so choppy and not smooth at times, sometimes even feels rushed. In each episode, we're not given any room to breathe, it's conflict after conflict after conflict. Then again, if you like this type of storytelling, you'll like this drama. I just love my story with a little bit of filler or breather in between conflicts.
Sad part is most of the villains are two dimensional in an "I'm evil bc I'm evil and wants power" type of thing, not any other compelling reason. The only good one is the villain in later episode, but God I really hate him and his antics. (which is good as a villain I suppose?)
But overall, it's still a good drama I suppose. Would I recommend it? If you have time, sure, go for it.

I love when every characters in a story have their own storyline, even the villains. It makes the story even more alive, and that's what Pursuit of Jade has excelled in.
The communication, the love, everything between the two leads are so wholesome and amazing. There were some frustrating part, but it pays off great in the end.
I love the side couple too, I suppose it's bc I'm kinda into toxic love trope sometimes lol, it's not everyone's cup of tea I know.
This is the drama that makes me want to watch other chinese dramas again, so YOU MUST definitely watch this. You won't regret it at all.
