Revenge/Angst? YES. Actual Remake? NAH.
I'm writing this review for one reason and that is to let people know if you're a fan of the Thai Drama "Heart of Stone" and come into this expecting a "Chinese Remake" of that drama... you're going to be sorely disappointed. Other than it having revenge, hidden identity, and a single "boy in water, drowning" scene there are quite literally NO other similarities.
The drama is ok but nothing special.
> Great acting from the ML (I felt his pain for real)
> Forgettable FL.
> A few sexy/steamy scenes sprinkled in.
> Mediocre bad guys. (the clencher for a not-so-great drama)
> Failed promise to deliver a "remake".
All in all... mayyybe if I hadn't anticipated "Heart of Stone" I could have enjoyed it a bit more but the mediocre FL and mediocre bad guys really brought the rating/enjoyment down a bit for me.
