setter2015

After watching the first ten minutes of episode one, I knew this drama was going to be like a makjang so I knew what to expect from the watching experience and despite the glaring flaws in the plot it was still overall a very entertaining watch. I think the biggest strength of the drama is the acting of the cast which really carried the sometimes outrageous storylines.

A steady watch

It was an enjoyable watch but it could have benefitted from having less episodes set in high school and more episodes set in their adult lives. I enjoyed Lin Zhixia's character and found her to be a more attractive and less annoying Sheldon Cooper. The leads have an okay chemistry but what I loved the most was the dynamics of their friend group. Admittedly, I think this drama is not something that many will enjoy due to the slow pace but if you want to watch something relaxing this might be for you.
