This review may contain spoilers
it was just a love diamond + a million subplots
I'll start with the good points;
+ Xie Xiang was a great female lead, one of the best, she was smart, cool, caring, independent and strong
+ Gu Yan Zhen was playful and a playboy but a total sweetheart, I mean he literally fell for her in the first few eps
+ the cross dressing was done well
+ Xie Xiang and Xiao Jun's sismance was adorable
+ Man Ting and Yan Zhen also had great friendship
+ the friendship between Huang Song and both Yan Zhen and Xie Xiang was sweet, the whole gang were a great team
+ the outfits and filmography was beautiful
+ those 2eps Xie Xiang saved herself/others (plus the ending)
+ the chemistry between Xie Xiang and Yan Zhen was off the charts~
now the things I hated
- the million of subplots! every other ep had a new unrelated story, I was losing my mind
- in the early eps Xie Xiang always had to be saved (though granted they were being realistic since she was physically weak and tiny)
- they literally wasted the romance ;/ I would've gotten it if they didn't want romance to be the focus, but they literally spent 40eps developing a main lead x 2nd lead love line ;/
- they ruined Man Ting and Yan Zhen's pure sibling like relationship when they added a sad pathetic 1 sided love..
- they made me really angry when even Huang Song fell for "the sister" and she literally went out with him as a girl and never tried to turn him down (and I wished she'd told him everything from the start and stayed as pure friends)
- the 2nd lead was slightly obsessive. he changed Xie Xiang's room without asking and he'd tell her "I won't take no for an answer" as if he owned her ;/
- they spent more time on the side characters than on the main, heck the evil girl had more screentime
- the evil girl felt unrealistic, she was young and weak, there's no way the bad guys would've given her that much authority
- Huang Song's death was unnecessary. he should've died with a bullet to the head or they shouldn't have left him to get shot 5 times
- the forgetful girl. agh I hated her the most..
- there was no consistency, it felt like the writer had 1 plot move "girl cross dresses and goes to a military school" and then she just added whatever that came to her.
- the romance took 40eps and 2seconds for them to confess and then it ended with them "walking" along towards the sunset... that was it. after such a long chase and misunderstandings, that was it......
- I was ready to give this a 10, but I didn't know it'd be that messy and draggy. I'll never watch another cdrama,
- the ahahahahahah ost drove me crazy!
I wish someone just made a cut of the 2 main leads, especially when they were together, that'd have saved me 30eps ;D
