A truly inspiring female-centered story about courage, resilience, and family.
I rarely write reviews but I felt one for this cdrama was necessary.You see a lot of dramas and series around bragging about having "strong" or "bad-ass" female leads, and don't get me wrong, some of them do, but most of the times those tend to be savage or fighting-types. It's hard to see female leads such as our Hua Zhi, who saves her family from misery NUMEROUS TIMES, thanks to her incredible intelligence and wit. She has literally done it all LOL. Her dedication to her family and to the common people is inspiring, she's forgiving and truly kind-hearted. One of a kind.
The main couple is also pretty cute, with no unnecessary misunderstandings which contribute nothing to the plot.
But more than the couple itself, what's truly heartwarming in this drama is the tightness of the Hua family. I'm personally a sucker for family-driven dramas, and this one didn't disappoint. Each member of the family is well characterized, often has its own arc, and by the end you'll love each and every one of them.
I highly recommend giving this drama a chance, it's truly one of a kind.

Seriously, what happened with the second season? The first one was pretty cute, funny and enjoyable but this one was a mess. They completely ruined the main couple and I’m sorry but I couldn’t help but skip all of their scenes. I think we saw them in the same scene only from episode 6? Before this they barely talked to each other through the phone and they both had apparently new ‘love interests’ after they stopped talking to each other. I understand that long-distance relationships can be difficult but it seemed like they didn’t even try to make it work? Also the friendships between Emma and Rome, and Porsche and Pick suddendly stopped existing, I was so sad because I loved the four of them in the s1 :(
Meanwhile I liked how the relationship between Pick and Rome evolved, even though the first one was a complete asshole but hey, I can forgive him because he was scared to admit his feelings. I was disappointed by how they handled that sort of ‘cheating’ because, yes, Din was behind all of it, but that doesn’t change the fact that Pick was talking to someone else while ‘dating’ Rome. I get that they weren’t official yet but I can’t help but think that he shouldn’t have treated Rome like this.
Overral, this was disappointing.
The whole plot of the first season was lost and most of the relationships were ruined, except for Rome and Pick. It wasn’t even funny like the previous one.
I think they could’ve handled this much better.
((Kudos for the acting tho, they were all very good))
