Han Dong & He Zi Yi were believable as a couple
I was in the mood for Han Dong dramas after writing about his venture into vertical drama space. This drama is my second vertical drama starring Han Dong. Wow, i enjoyed this very much. It was great to see Han Dong as ML with romance arc because he still got the sex appeal at 45 years old.
Trigger warning: Rape, Suicide, Violence
What I liked:
1. FL characterisation - She was assertive & confident - I like those traits in FL. She was also a great friend.
2. Romance - At the start of drama, their relationship was tumultuous with FL breaking up with ML & going abroad. Their reconciliation started off rocky (blamed it on ML's approach) but once they were on the same page, they were affectionate and had better communication. Great kisses, wow!
3. ML characterisation - I thought he was a scumbag for his remarks & rough approach but he turned out to be ok.
4. Supporting characters - I liked Lin Jing Xuan but gosh pity her for the obstacles she faced. At first I liked ML's friend who was a tattletale but later disliked him for not pursuing his true love.
5. Acting - Both leads gave great performance and the chemistry was very good. There was a big real-life age difference (21 years) but I did not notice because He Zi Yi portrayed FL with such maturity.
6. Styling - I likee the outfits worn by FL & ML. He Zi Yi has legs for days!
What I disliked:
1. Antagonists - Zheng Zhen Yu l, ML's fiancee arranged by their families, was a maniac & spoilt heiress. She needed psychiatric treatment. I also hated Lin Yi Ran for his treatment towards Lin Jing Xuan. FL's mother was horrible but later on mellowed.
2. Wrap up - I didn't like how Lin Yi Ran was wrapped up because I thought he took the easiest way out.
Favourite scene
ML was cuddling FL then his father entered the hospital room
