Second Chances Of Life
Damn, I just finished WYL's other drama, and watching this right after made me like her even more. And honestly, it’s not just her carrying the whole show—the entire cast and the storyline worked together so well. I truly didn’t expect a happy ending here, because this drama had already traumatized me in some episodes (yes, I’m looking at you, Episode 8 👀).
What really hit me was SC sacrificing himself to give his mother a good life, instead of letting her end it all because of that useless gambler father. That storyline hurt, but it was beautifully done. My favorite though? TYX’s loyalty to YHT—she literally had her own grave built beside TYX’s grave. That scene destroyed me. I cried. No regrets.
Now, here’s what I’m still wishing for: the story of Yu Nian and Shen Cheng. Don’t tell me they wouldn’t meet again in that lifetime, because I refuse to accept that. Also, can we talk about how they kept switching timelines each episode but somehow it never felt confusing? Rare blessing.
Sure, I still have a few questions about certain parts, but honestly? It doesn’t even matter anymore because the ending was solid. And a good ending in a C-drama? That’s already a miracle.
Highly recommended.
