Chinese Medicine and lots of flowers is an interesting concept
First of all, there is a lot of flowers in this drama and it is the most I have ever seen in a drama. I learnt all different types of flowers in this drama. Second, the incorporation of Chinese Medicine was interesting as it does represent some aspects of how Chinese Traditional Medicine is effective even in the present. However, people who are not into this wont enjoy it as there is quite a heaviy emphasis on this as the main story does revolve around this.
Music was very good. Silence Wang always does a good job, so congrats to him, his other songs are nice as well.
I think that the main reason why this is a 7.5 is because of the story. It was "too perfect". I recently finished The First Frost and in that one, some interesting things happened which turned it more into an action. This one was completely romance but I think it played out well considering the ML is basically just perfect and the FL did have some issues but they all got resolved in the end. Both families are quite wealthy so money was not a problem unlike The First Frost where there was a unbalance between the couples. In this, the couples are pretty much destined for each other as soon as they met (factoring apearance, personality and rich family background).
Also, the ending in my opinion felt a little rushed where they married. Episode 27 midway ML basically proposed and then 1 ep later they had a whole wedding going on. That was a bit too quick. Maybe cut out some of the boring parts as I was watching them at x2 speed.
Also was funny how the FL had a 7 year relationship with her ex then they basically broke up and then not that long later, she got a new one however her persionality made this an okay thing to do.
FL's mother was hiding her cancer from the FL. This was very predictiable as almost every drama does this but you can not expect much from a drama that pretty much has no downfalls.
Comparing this to When I Fly Towards You, the execution of this was a lot better as they are both quite similar with one being in a school setting and one at work (27/28 yrs old). Other than that, they both are supposed to be 'perfect romance plots'.
