And one untreated trauma leads to many more issues… Han Tuo needs a “hot” date with a therapist, not a boyfriend. Not that a few sessions would not help Lu Jun Xi too. But then, it would probably help us all.

There is a huge difference between supporting your partner while they work through their issues, and working around your partner's issues. And with how it is right now, Lu Jun Xi is going to live a rather exhausting life. And I’m just here asking - why the tone at times became so serious? Either keep it light and fun, or overdramatic and entertaining. But they actually tried to be serious with inner conflicts, but also did an extremely poor job tackling the subject, since they did not have enough screen time to dive deep into it and explore it enough…

I really enjoyed how chaotic the first few episodes were, the on crack pacing was actually what kept me interested - what random thing will they throw at me next? But then the pacing actually slowed down, but it did not bring much development. Han Tuo was insecure and unsure about Lu Jun Xi's feelings and it kind of stayed like that till the end. They made up a few times, but is the issue actually gone? Then we have poor Lu Jun Xi who in the speed of light had to deal with his newly found discovery of his sexuality AND being in love with his best friend. This alone could (and should) be the internal conflict for the whole show, not a small setback for one or two episodes.

Were they cute? Yes. Was the chemistry nice? Yes. Did I enjoy the friendships as much as the romance? Yes. Were the kids’ scenes great? Yes. Was I getting more and more bored with every new episode? Also Yes. I don’t know… maybe because they started with a bang, I expected explosions later on in terms of plot developments, but was met with the emotional aftermath of the blast instead. Blame my expectations, but also they made me have expectations based on the first few episodes, so who is truly to be blamed here?

Overall, it just felt… fine.
