just complexity and many unresolved things

i started with great anticipation and was then extremely disappointed. if they had kept it short, maybe i would have liked the series more.

i still don't understand the existence of wang shuo. yes, he was chi cheng's ex-boyfriend, and yes, he taught him how to raise snakes. but I don't understand why he tried to re-enter his life. his attraction to chi cheng was nothing more than a habit. he wasn't in love or anything.

on the other hand, doctor chuai acted as if he were smart and did nothing but stir things up. everything he said caused misunderstandings. he was my most hated character.

and i still don't understand the relationship dynamic between gou cheng yu and chi cheng. they tried to convey something in the series, but they absolutely failed to convey it. they couldn't explain the characters' pasts, and their pasts and connections seemed superficial.

i really didn't like the dubbing of the voice actors in the series. they somehow managed to fit the characters' voices, but they couldn't convey their emotions at all. because wu sou wei's actor used his own voice for dubbing, the emotion in his scenes was much better. episode 15, and again, the scenes where he talks to his mother, were my favorites. especially the scene in the garden was a scene that could win an oscar.

i started the series thinking it was a bl series, and frankly, it didn't feel romantic at all. their chemistry was good, but i couldn't feel any attraction or connection. the series' biggest downside was that it left both the story and the emotions shallow. i started with high expectations, and all my expectations were dashed.
