This one has some spoilers but I promise it’s worth the read
Lemme start with I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS DRAMA.
He Yu and Esther smashed it with this series the acting was on point and I can imagine absolutely no one else playing their roles they truly were amazing.
The plot was great two kids brought up together in the same house siblings but not by blood but separated due to the parents split leaving Zhao taken by Jin Qiang and Mu by her mother only for Mu to come to Thailand at 20 years of age in the hopes of meeting her brother and becoming close to him again.
Main leads:
Jin Zhao- ur typical bad boy but has the most kind hearted and beautiful personality at the time he spent his high school years onward racing and boxing to earn money for his father himself due to a law case in which he was framed but also to help his garage in which he worked.
Jiang Mu- a sweet and cutesy girl completely loving caring and beautiful she clings to him like anything but has absolute adoration for Zhao in her eyes. And although seems like a weak character is strong and supports him every step of the way she cares for him more than anyone ever could a proceeds to continually put him above everything and everyone.
Side characters:
Sanlai- an incredibly caring and humorous character whom I truly sympathised with not only because of him past but because despite everything he went through he was always there to support Zhao and protected Mu at all costs as if she were his own sister his character was truly lovable and amazing
Crazy- as they call him is another friend of Zhao’s who again was incredibly humorous and like Sanlai treated Mu as his own sister he really was a favourite in this series
Lin Sui- despite the rivalry with him and Zhao at the start it was evident that he had no intention to cause harm but rather was bedazzled by his talent their friendship then developed and we can see that he truly was a good one he was the reason Zhao overcame his accident and was able to live with good health.
Nana- I loved her truly bestie of Mu and neighbour of Sanlai she stopped at nothing to be there for Mu from the start she helped Mu make a move toward Zhao and was a consistent help in being a comforter and listener whenever Mu needed it
Wan Qing- despite her unrequited love for Zhao it was clear that she was never going to be an issue as although she loved him dearly she never forced him nor created major issues for Mu and in the end realised that it was best they were together and became a great friend of Mu
Plot:
To keep it short their separation is followed by a reunion due to Mu going to Manshi she makes attempts to get closer to Zhao and slowly learns the difficulties he has been put into his shortened study despite being a top grade student resulted due to economic issues and his continuous want to help his younger “sister” Jin Xin who had a critical disease and needed treatment. The two slowly fall in love and become inseparable and eventually get together however the relationship no matter how sweet gradually gathered issues due to Zhao being conservative of the true economic issues he was in and with the help of Sanlai realised he was not helping Mu by keeping it from her this developed their relationship for the better and he found a way to clear his name as the truth was that he was caught up in a case and framed for it to clear his name he required racing one final time and winning to end all the troubles. However, due to a faulty brake Zhao’s car exploded injuring him to the point he was unable to walk and Lin Sui steps in to get him a great doctor so he can get better however Zhao feeling unworthy doesn’t want Mu to be with him as he felt she deserved someone who could protect her and walk with her so when her mum falls in and requires surgery forcing her back to Canada he ghosts her in which she feels upset they then reconcile in Nanxing 6 years later she is still in love with him and him with her he realises that he had no need to step away at the time and that he wanted to marry her the end shows the two married.
Criticisms:
Honestly my only issues are some of the script stuff but ofc im not a scriptwriter but i thought I’d add it and see if anyone agrees
1. This is minor but when Mu thinks he’s cheating due to the hand he put on the other girl I found there to be no reasonable explanation for that action and it did slightly annoy me as despite his need to do some activities because of him being framed I didn’t see a need for that specific action anyway lolllll
2. The separation of 6 years felt crazy and the frustration I felt of Zhao’s actions were unreal as ofc Mu had already gone through sm because of his case and then his accident then he chose to make decisions for her
3. The proposal was low effort sat in airport waiting seats with the ring attached to a new keychain I liked the sentimental touch but it jus didn’t feel as great as some of the other dramas and the wedding stuff was unfinished cz all best men and maid of honours were drunk and asleep which I found slightlyyyy eh anyway
ALL IN ALL ITS GREATTTT
Zhao’s actions no matter how harsh made me realise his trauma and self esteem were truly bad he felt worthless despite being adored by Mu but this drama is a great way to show his healing and the happiness they both gain I truly loved it a lot❤️
