I have given this a rating of five with much deliberation...although I originally wanted to rate it a 4, I was compelled to bump it to a 5 solely based on the male lead performance.
If you are into the boy chasing the girl, this could've been the show for you, if the pacing didn't slow down to a screeching halt after episode eleven.
Cast: Qin Shang Cheng (a pirate) becomes completely infatuated with Hua Rong, even when there is no real reason to like her...which was mentioned during the series. He adores her completely and is utterly devoted to her. He is a character with so many layers...one moment he is dead serious and about his business and the next he is jokingly silly. As a viewer you may be confused about his personality if it wasn't for Yuan Hao slaying this role and making you fall for this odd character. I feel bad that this was his first leading role, because even he couldn't carry this sinking boat (pun intended). As a side note, I want to say that the way he looks at Hua Rong is swoon worthy.
The rest of the cast wasn't as bad as one of the reviewers mentioned...it was the script and maybe the budget cut that made this show a disaster...however,after watching eleven good episodes it would be tragic not finish this drama.
Set/ Props: Although low budget, I have seen worst and I feel like the crew did the best they could with the clothing and props.
Audio/Music: I am not sure if there is just a bad version of this circling around, I attempted to watch this on numerous sites and every single one of them has audio that is damaged to the point of aggravation. Sometimes the audio cuts completely, other times loud music drowns out the dialog and other times it sounds as if the actors are speaking into a paper bag.
As for the music, it feels as if there are two OST's, one which corresponds to the scenes and the other from a 1920's bootleg circus...I don't know where they've gotten that music from.
There is no re-watch value here, but if you want to see an amazing actor in a crappy drama this would be the show for you.
