The cast hard carried

Initially started off strong and had me hooked. If you're a fan of Taiwanese dramas, you'll recognize quite a few faces. Everyone was great in terms of acting and each character had an intriguing story. But as the show progressed, I found myself getting impatient and frustrated with the direction of the story as well as the characters themselves. By the halfway mark, I was fast-forwarding through episodes in hopes that the show would redeem itself and bring back my intrigue.

I loved the premise and the concept of showing women at different stages of their acting career grappling with different issues in their lives such as jealousy, insecurity, and loneliness. Unfortunately, I didn't end up loving it, but I still commend the show for what it tried to do and its attempt to set itself apart from typical Taiwanese dramas.
