A powerful drama highlighting social issues
Real talk when I first heard about this show I wasn’t exactly hyped. I’m a big Yang Mi fan so just seeing her vibe with Ou Hao was enough to get me to tune in. I wasn’t expecting some deep character arcs or stuff that hardcore drama nerds geek out over. I just wanted a chill realistic vibe set in that time period ya know? My expectations were lowkey but man I was shook once I started watching. Some scenes dragged a bit so I skipped ‘em but it didn’t mess with the story since the dialogue wasn’t make-or-break.Yo I was all in for how they showed the two sisters Xiu Xiu and Su Su. Hit me right in the feels ‘cause I got some tension with one of my own sisters. Also like I dropped in a comment somewhere the show dives into social and legal stuff which was super moving and hit home hard.
Little by little I got hooked ‘cause the depth felt so real. Haven’t read the novel so no clue how it stacks up but cinematography script and character designs? Straight-up felt like real life
Totally recommend it if you’re down for a heavy emotional drama with family vibes and a touch of romance. This show was my summer buddy in August :)
