So real... Strikingly real
This drama was so real in a way I totally understand why each caracters act the way they do. Many caracters feel like they have been played and betrayed and they act and feel accordingly. Many people will say it’s draggy and will complain about how some caracters act but the truth is their action and behaviours are all the consequences of what they have been through. I guess it feels draggy because it highlights their emotions a whole lot so it feels real.
I really love Ming Yi and Ji Bozai. They are both complex caracters so it could be hard for you to watch without some patience and understanding. While watching this drama, I always kept in mind that Ming Yi has been through a lot of pressure to always win and she has barely received love growing up so I could totally understand she never feels safe to not be serious and to be honest about her feelings. Gradually, she will warm up but she still fears people won’t like her if she ever becomes true to herself which leads to her hiding lots of things but that’s how people act when THEY DON’T KNOW HOW TO BE LOVED. 😃 Ji Bozai has been through similar things so he would conceal his feelings, keep his distance and have his trust wavering, sometimes I would feel like he trusts a lot and he would loose his trust in a second. Both have their own sense of pride so it is hard for them to stay united and act together, they would act unilaterally but they learn through a lot of hardships that they need to resolve their problem (be it their own couple problems or others) hand in hand.
I also really loved Tianci and Yan Xiao. Tianci is a strong willed princess, she knows what she wants but she feels helpless about it, at the beginning. Yan Xiao doesn’t know what he truly wants (or he deluded himself in wanting some recognition in the wrong place) but is resolute in his actions. And here is the thing, I have seen people complaining about Tianci but I can totally understand her. Yan Xiao is the type of a man who will do things solo in order to protect who he loves, without them knowing but Tianci prefers to face trials together, she doesn’t want to be sheltered and protected.
