Now i remembered it and finally saw it. I really like revenge storys, so it was really exciting to see what will happen next.
A second aspect i like is, that you won´t hate charas only. You will love and hate charas at the same time as well as love and cry with them. The acting was great.
I didn´t like a few decisions from the charas, but it don´t interfere much with the overall result.
With 40 Episodes its a bit to long, but every minute its worth it.

One of the great hits of Taiwanese drama!
I super loved this drama. I cannot remember how many times I have re-watched this. The story is quite interesting. It revovlves around family, friends, job, and love. I also love the twist and turns of this drama. I cried a lot on this drama. Plus the actors were great! I love Joe Chen, Peilin and Wallace Huo.The chemistry of Wallace Huo and Peilin was great too! I've wish they have more dramas, but unfortunately this was the only one.
Anyway, I highly recommended this drama. Its a must watch!

Disclaimer: I watched this for Wallace Huo and ALMOST dropped it regardless.
This drama made me so upset in parts I was in actual emotional agony. Part of it has to do with the script writers taking such a sadistic approach to Joe Chen's character, who was the far more compelling twin but was used as a sacrificial lamb throughout most of the story.As much as I love Wallace Huo, Deric Wan's character had a much *much* more compelling arc as well. I mean, Wallace is insanely good looking so if you just wanna stare at him in his idol days for 40 episodes, it's well worth the price of admission, but never use "death and the maiden" as a trope in a story where it's competing for screen time against the lead couple. As an archetype, death and the maiden will always be far more interesting.
Fair warning, there is also instalove in this story, one of my least favorite tropes, with the additional theme of "fate" prevalent in everything, in a sort of mystical way that felt more depressing than optimistic.
I'm also not a big fan of the "poor little rich girl" trope, and ofc we get oodles of that here, complete with a rich twin who is always perfect in every way. Overall, I couldn't in good conscience recommend a drama with so many tropes that get subverted in almost perverse ways and with so many absurd twists and plot holes big enough to drive a trailer truck through them.
