When you have right amount of ingredients and processing them harmoniously
Said it many times but i'm not very big on modern cdrama hence the low rewatch value. Honestly, i came here solely for Chen Xingxu in republican attire. I did come for that, fully aware that's not even the main plot and it could be only appeared at the beginning. Plus my history with modern cdrama only give it high chance of me dropping it yet here i am, surprising myself by finishing it right off the bat.
Imma start with this drama has right amount of ingredients and know how to balance all of them, therefore they're not clashing. It's just right not overboard which is surprisingly rare for my standard. it could be boring yet the unraveling past plot is enough to keep it thrilling. After all, this type of cdrama usually not complicated. The family (past) issue and the leads romance is basically the plot main drive. I lowkey like how everything is predictable and just curious how would the characters react upon big revelation. Another thing i wanna highlight is the pace. The pace is superb. Like i said, this drama is all about balance. Everything is the right amount. Some may want more but modern drama is good with less than 30 episodes.
Acting department, well, the chemistry is damn. Dating era chemistry is so natural like i was invading their privacy at some point. Btw I'm faithful to our leads chemistry since day 1. Not getting SL syndrome in this household 😏
I admit our SML actor did a good job. He probably the most layered character. The discourse regarding his motive is very much understandable, i'd say every opinion is valid depends on your pov.
It's small detail but i love love love how they keep the games till the end and make it part of the story to show characters growth. Told ya i came for ML republican attire hehe. I also love how there's no wedding or marriage proposal at the end. Although our ML is mentally married in his head LMAO.
To summarize, it's a light drama with a right amount of everything. Like perfectly nutritious tasty meal, with taste, not a boring bland healthy meal.
