Worth the tears

I cried every few episodes. The cinematography really gave me old Hong Kong vibes. I don't really watch modern dramas, but I'm glad I didn't miss out on this one.

Everybody was likeable in this story, if you don't include the villains that is. I really liked the security guard, he was an unexpected addition that made me touched at how invested he was especially in the end.

Speaking of the end, I didn't like it. The end was even though expected when halfway through the story cause they revealed it, made me sad. This whole drama made me sad tbh. YHT her family situation was painful to watch, the scenes when her dad was hitting her made me question if he really did hit her so hard. It looked so real, YHT 你受苦了. The way her dad acted is despicable and really showed that family is who you choose. She had a loving mom and grandma, too bad they left too early.

I really wish to know about the current YHT and TYX, but I guess we can say for sure that they're happy together. Look at their dedication to each other over the years. Every year she would celebrate his birthday. Also I am curious who the dad was, was it really shen xiaojun or just some random ? I am happy to see that the children are living better in the altered timeline, I wonder what happened. So many questions left to answer but they all basically imply a happy ending even though there is so much sadness in this drama.

The brotherhood and friendship of those three punks was ugh heart wrenching, esp cha ge. I'm glad he is out at sea probably wishing tan xin was there. The stories of love this told was all there, maybe not family love in the obvious ways but at least of found family.

Anyways, this drama will leave you crying your heart out if you're empathetic enough. The struggles that will be shown is not so far from common stories told by others, this is just one of them that is being shown. Although, there is some fantasy to it so it's not that common, but definitely worth the tears.
