It's good. Its also short so its binge-able and above ALL, portrays reality

Its a good drama that portrays a pretty realistic situation in which the timing for a relationship doesn't work out.

It's a drama that deals with mature themes (nothing too sexy if that's what you thing mature means). But if you are looking to watch a perfect-ending, cookie cutter drama... this is not it for you baby girl. You might cry a little bit but if you stick around, you might even learn a thing or two about real love and maturity as an adult.

Even though two people obviously love each other, sometimes the circumstances can't be ignored and it would be wrong for them to date under those circumstances. A person also can't ignore his or hers morals in order to make a relationship work. Cheating is simple wrong (which is technically what happens in this drama)

I really enjoyed this drama because of the writing. Everything was executed in a realistic and mature way so that the character s didn't look childish unintentionally or unnecessarily. Everything was under control (from the looks of the drama from my point of view of course)

So I would really recommend it.

AWESOME~!

Story: Can I just tell you that this has been the best mystery drama I have ever watched. Honestly, the plot, as far as I know, isn't like anything I've seen before and it's just so exciting to watch. You do die a little bit from all of he tension build up sometimes but that is what is enjoyable since you never really know what to expect.

Acting/Cast: Like, do I even need to say anything about the cast? They are all so talented and complete ~visuals~, I have no complaints. They did such a good job portraying their characters. Truly splendid.

Music: The music was honestly something that really enhanced the drama experience. It went with the occasion and always made the scenes better while keeping it simple and not overbearing the scene.

Re-watch Value: The only reason why I score it with a low re-watch value is because since the whole drama is about a mystery. So once you finish the drama the first time, you already know all the twists and turn the drama takes and you also already know all of the identities of the "bad guys". So, in it's original purpose to build up tension, the drama wouldn't do that anymore since you already know the plot.

weird...

bro ... the entire time I was watching it felt like nothing made sense.

first, I feel like the story is overall a bit hard to follow, and second, the writing is not all that good.

third, this has a harem theme/trope???? why is this harem-type trope still a thing? I get that you can be a popular guy and have different people like you at the same time and have multiple love interests and whatnot but they never define who he is dating or if he is even interested in any of them other than the "sister." which is also a problem. I don't care if y'all ain't blood-related, your parents are married so you're siblings. the step bro step sis thing is so old and lowkey gross just because of the parents being married situation alone. I don't know why people still find this trope cute.

but yeah, he never really even expresses attraction or love or anything of the sort.
he kinda just goes with the flow? and lets these girls just fawn over him ???????

It was okay I guess

This drama is nothing new to be honest. The plot-wise, it's like anything else you could have seen before. The only twist in this drama is that Sang Tian is a boy for most of the drama only revealing her identity in the last 2 episodes. So the story overall wasn't even that good. It could have been better since the idea of waht they were going for as a whole was actually fresh and kinda un-used, but they didn't make it and it was kind of a flop for me. (I AM NOT A CRITIC!! THIS IS A PERSONAL OPINION BASED ON MY TASTE.)The romance part is there and it's cute and all but it honestly didn't do it for me for some reason.

First, I hate it when the male lead acts mean for no freaking reason, because that is pretty much how Wen Bing acts, plus the rudeness and always ordering the female lead around, and still the female lead falls for him for the "little things he does for her". To me, that is such a bs story (again TO ME, emphasis on ME). If I could put "zero" for re-watch value that would be great.

The second male lead can't even be called the second lead to be honest since he never did anything. Honestly, this drama just started irritating me sometime between episode 10 to 15. After that, I finished the drama for the sake if just watching something but I didn't enjoy it at all to be honest, I should have just dropped it to be honest. And this review is not really to try and persuade anyone to not watch it, I am writing it more like out of habit at this point since I review everything I watch.

Interesting Story ruined by Annoying FL

I can't explain hated and kinda enjoyed this at the same time.
(and the only reason I enjoyed it was honestly because, in between all of the cringy worthy dialogue and incredibly unbearably annoying actions, there truly are some really funny moments in this and I liked all of the supporting characters (for the most part, the brother is annoying af and so is her best friend but I'll give her a pass))

The story starts out with a very interesting and promising plot. from the get go we get introduced to this once-bitter female lead that has now changed into someone brighter and more positive because she was inspired by the male lead. However the situation is very cringy since she does start out as an obviously obsessed Kpop fan. doesn't matter why she started liking them, she ended obsessed. and that obsession/love for her idol ruins like 75% of the dialogue between the leads in the first like 7 episodes. she can't say something that doesn't sound stupid or crazy for the life of her.

The way they wrote the female lead really made this unbearable to watch sometimes.
She was super annoying and lacked any common sense. She was supposed to be acting like a 30 year old that goes back in time but instead she acts like she is 13 the entire time. Like, miss girl, did you NEVER watch ANY time travel media?? like, there are so many movies and tv shows about time travel that it can be considered general knowledge at this point. it should be obvious that if you travel back in time you should try and at least act normal about it. SHE NEVER ACTS NORMAL!! she is so incredibly dense.

I honestly wouldn't rewatch this drama ever, not even for the "good parts". Seriously. A drama not worth a rewatch is not a good drama.

Casting 20/10 tho.. Loved the actors. ❤️

THIS IS REALLY NOT A DRAMA WORTH DROPPING. It has a great storyline and it is very mature. That is if you can't handle mature content (for the younger viewers and the few that just don't like those things) I say don't watch it because you have a higher chance of not liking it. It is honestly really worth the time and I hope that the next episodes live up to my expectations which they probably will.

Update: Finished the series (which I hadn't previously done when I wrote my review) and I... LOVE THE ENDING!!!
I won't lie, the ending definitely will leave some people unsatisfied as it does not give a definite answer on where the main couple stands but it does hint that they eventually end up together it's just that we don't see them as a couple in the drama. (but they do end up together lol just making that clear)

I enjoyed the struggles the main couple faced throughout the drama, to be honest. It makes it seem more worth it in the end. I honestly didn't like the cheating part, but it makes sense in the context of the drama. (in a way)

I would a 100% recommend and rewatch whenever I have the time.

:'(

Honestly, the web drama itself is not bad, but don't watch it unless you can't handle non-so-happy-endings.
Watch it if you want to have a sad little time.

I personally was satisfied with the ending. Like yes they didn't end up together but that's how some relationships are. To be honest, I don't really like these types of dramas. Like I do but I can't watch them that often or I lose hope for love lol. But, the truth is, some relationships aren't forever. It's sad, at least for me, to think about but that's kind of the reality of the world we live in.

It did kinda break my heart that the girl did manage to move on the dude didn't. :(

Such a 100 out of 10 movie

I can't even begin to describe how good this movie is.
Hands down, as of this very moment (I just finished watching the movie btw) This is my favorite Chinese movie ever. I would say my favorite movie ever but since it has such a bittersweet ending (more bitter than sweet for others) I can't say I prefer it above all of the other movies I have ever watching but it comes so damn close.
I have seen "sad ending" movies before. I say sad ending because the movie itself, isn't sad. It's just that we don't get that fairy tale "happy ending".
I would really suggest watching if you like the main actress because she does such good job (like always lets be honest here lol). And also if you just want a little pause from life and simply might want to cry a little. And trust me, you will cry (come of y'all will create whole new rivers XD )

Break up

For me, the break up between Yeon-doo and Hyun-ho ruined the whole show for me.
I came from season 1 expecting more lovey-dovey stuff from them since they won my heart in the first season, so when I found out they had a second one, I came running to see from Yeon-Hyun couple scenes. But the drama kept on taking a different route and I could tell that the story was gonna end with their break up.
I also didn't like how suddenly the new mean girl character gets more spotlight. It's almost as if the show is about her and everything in it is revolving around her instead of the main couple (that will break up later but is still the main couple). I basically just don't like anything the writers did this season. It may sound like I'm ranting (which I kinda am, not gonna lie) but its just that I got so attached to the 1 season that it was just so disappointing to see what they did to the second one. I mean like COME ON. They should have left Yeon-doo and Hyun-ho together. I'm not asking for much here lol.

Emotional and touching

I honestly don't even know what to say. This movie is the kind of movie that isn't a mega hit but definitely did a good job with everything. It is really worth watching though I was a little bit disappointed at the ending where we didn't really see the characters again but that also made it more emotional because we knew how they were but we didn't get to see them on screen one last time.

It really left a strong impression on me the way all played out. But the reason why the re-watch value is a bit lower is because once you know how it ends, its the kind of movie that can't be as entertaining anymore since you already knew the climax.

Cute and refreshing

The story itself (plot wise) is not that fascinating. Its just your typical Chinese cliche.
Now, just because I said the story isn't fascinating doesn't mean that it isn't good. Its actually a very detailed plot line and very entertaining and refreshing in the sense that its still a cliche but it's kind of done differently and there is kind of a twist at the end that differentiates this movie from other similar ones.
The acting is amazing (as expected from the 2 leads to be honest cuz every work they do is freaking amazing) and the music really fits the movie making it more enjoyable.
I wouldn't say it's an impactful movie. Meaning that you wont really be that impressed with it to the point that you wont be able to forget it for the rest of your life. Its just a pass time kind of movie to enjoy at the moment and not really come back and watch again.

Leia Mais

OMGGG!!!!

I can confidently say that if you are looking for some great romance that will make you cry this is the movie for you.
This movie was such an emotional rollercoaster that I can't even begin to describe how fucking good it is.
First of all, the story is supper original, with the whole carpenter and designer thing and.... honestly just the entire plot. I love this movie so much that it is now automatically my favorite movie.
If you don't like crying by yourself (because if you are human you will definitely cry watching this) you might want to watch it with someone else.

Leia Mais

Its okay I guess??

To be honest, it's not that I don't like the plot because the story itself is fine, but the way its done, plus the acting, this movies is only so so.
I don't mean to hate, like, if you are into this stuff its fine, but not my taste. I was a bit disappointing since I have grown a high standard for Chinese movies. This one was just not up to par with my expectations at all.

The male lead is okay but not great. The female lead is also not so bad but she is just so................ I don't even know how to describe them. They are such bland characters. They literally have no depth.
