The most boring drama I've ever seen so far
To watch series like this is terrifying. I feel I live in an utterly dumbed down, low IQ society.When the director made the US movie, Idiocracy, he didn't know he made a DOCUMENTARY.
This series live up to that name, idiocrasy.
Utterly boring, utterly made up. As long as 5 episodes till another 5 nothing really happens. The first part was meant to be an emotional hit but it was not. I couldn't live in the story as was too made up. No in this world there is a 8-10 years of girl who 'bravely' wants to die first. It is a sheer and unlikely manipulation of your dumbed down, low IQ childish emotion (I mean if it worked on you). I still can recall a series and a part when I was really emotionally moved and it was the Lost you Forever' part when Xiao Liu misses the emperor's new wife thinking that she was her mother - take it as example for playing with the emotions of the audience - that was a hit, this.... I felt nothing but was distracted. How poor, how disrespectful to treat us all as if we had a lobotomy in the past 6 years.
The acting, ML is good but had very limited time on screen. FL is boring, weak, while playing being to perfect and smart - but just as lucky as she could win the lottery 5, her expressions are fake, she is boring and I didn't see her in other dramas but based on this she is a very poor actress and one of the most boring female I saw so far in Chinese dramas.
The story: basically there is no story, the drama revolves around an allegedly smart - in reality mainly just lucky - girl and the rest (of the casts) are just fillings, after 20 episodes almost nothing happened expect to girlish cheesy stuff disguised as 'the real life of the maids'. I am sorry, in my free time I wish to be entertained, and the life or made-up life of servants is absolutely not my cup of tea.
What a waste of the handsome and good actor ML, and what a waste of my time.
