slow to start, strong middle and weak finish
for the first 13 episodes, I was asking myself why I was watching this. the story was boring and the characters not interesting. at episodes 14, things got better. but at one point, it felt like they were trying to just extend the story. and the ending was really weak and disappointing. it feels like this should have been 25-30 episodes and it would have been great. at 52, it became a weak series.I only watched this series because I liked the female lead in other series. the acting from the cast was not at fault here. they did the best they could with the story they were given. it's just that they could not carry the show by themselves.

ok but not the best version of the show
I have watched the different version of this show and while this version is ok, it's far from being the best one. I liked that they brought some twists to the version of other countries. I liked that they removed the illness of the main character and removed the part of going in the wrong room (doesn't really work anymore) but they also turned Dylan in a forceful creep, killing the show for me. him trying to get Elaine to break up with xinyi was done in a bully's way. And the actor that plays Dylan is not great. I would also add that Elaine's transformation was weaker than in the other version of the show.Was this review helpful to you?
