Episode 1: How absurd is the bully putting the blame on the victim! But this is the reality of life. It has happened to me and it is possible to be gaslit like that, continuously questioning if calling them out is wrong. Because there is always someone trying to help the bully. That bully was the one who put things in motion, and then she felt justified calling out Wu Xiu Ya for not apologizing for being bullied because she was called. She wasn't even truthful at the time, she tried to hide behind the false narrative that Wu Xiu Ya's stand hurt other people. These other people who were complicit in the bullying, if not actively bullying but isolating her, which included Shi Ye.
Episode 2: Absolutely enjoyed her stand up act in this episode. The first two episodes are just so damn well-written. If this continues for the all the episodes, i might as well look up the other works by these creators and writers. Also the actors.
Ep 3 to ep 10: In reality the rules say one thing, but the institutions that lay down the rules are the ones who refuse to follow them. They see cunning credit-stealing employees as the stars whereas they continue to make use of the hardworking ones not giving them credit that is due. Oh, in episode 9, we find out that even though it may have seemed like Shi Ye didn't speak up, he actually thought her act was funny and didn't have anything against her.
Ep 11: When i first saw Xu Yun Feng in ep 10, I thought they would try to pair him up with the Wu Xiu Ya and they did. And I thought since things weren't going anywhere between the leads, this would be good diversion for her to find herself. But when he said, you have one day to consider it. I was like throw that card away baby. This isn't a job interview where you are desperate to take any opportunity that comes your way. Well, at least they talked about things and decided to get to know each other which makes more sense.
Ep 12 to Ep 15: Okay fine, you gotta give the guy brownie points for the outfit change, just for making her comfortable. Oh wow, the ending of this episode was so damn beautiful, more so than her act. I initially came for romance but the story made me stay. Their struggle to establish themselves grabs you attention and cannot help but make you want to root for them.
Ep 15 to Ep 24: I Immensely enjoyed the drama. I could understand the reasons behind each of the decisions made by the Wu Xiu Ya. I was wondering why Zheng Hao was listed for main role, and now i know. I like his journey from who he was before to how far he has come as a person. He finally see Xiu Ya as not just an object but a person. As for Shi Yi, he said a lot of things, but he was quite vague about what kind of future they would have together. I don't see it working out with him because they both are dreaming of a different future. Here's to hoping things work out for Xiu Ya and Zheng Hao.
