Strong start but falter starting episode 11
I saw clips of this cdrama on Youtube and after reading synopsis, I thought why not watch it.
What I liked:
1) Plot at the start - For the first 11 episodes, the story was refreshing and fast-paced. No over the top drama. I like that 4 characters (male lead Xie Shi, female lead Xu Mu, second male lead Shen Yi & second female lead Song Nian Nian) have different personalities.
2) Romance - It's fascinating to watch 2 different relationships progress throughout the series. Secret crush/fake relationship vs bad first impression turned friends turned lovers. I personally enjoyed the latter, which was demonstrated by the second leads. We see Song Nian Nian and Shen Yi going through hardship together therefore they were more believable and dynamic compared to Xu Mu-Xie Shi's relationship.
3) Shen Yi characterisation - It's great to see his character grow throughout the series. He started off as goofy rich kid trying to regain daddy's approval and money but he wasn't a slacker. He worked hard and what surprised me most is his kind heart. He helped and supported Xie Shi and Song Nian Nian.
4) Song Nian Nian characterisation - I like that she's sensible despite being a writer i.e. she's not caught up in her own bubble or fiction. She is aware and attuned to her feelings and surroundings. She is a good friend to both Xu Mu and Shen Yi.
5) Zhang Yao - Wow, I was blown away by Sheng Yi Chen's face. What an arresting beauty! His eyes were magnetic and I like his subtlety in both facial expressions and actions.
6) Xu Mu's colleagues - It was fun to watch Zhao Yu Si, Qin Xiao Ke, Mr Liao and even the annoying rival Fang Jing Jing in and out of the office.
7) Zhang Jiong Min - I like his facial expression especially the smirk. He reminds me of Korean idol Lee Jeonghyeon of EVNNE. His character is quiet but there is intrigue.
What I disliked:
1) Plot at the end - I was infuriated with Xu Mu in episode 10. The lack of communication led to misunderstanding and seriously I don't understand the reason for accepting Xie Shi's marriage proposal. I also found that the main couple lost their spark after that debacle.
2) Xu Mu characterisation - She didn't grow as much as other characters. She liked to assume things without proper communication with Xie Shi. Perhaps her character hated confrontation but her assumptions led to misunderstandings. Once is fine but she repeated it again in episode 14.
Favourite scene:
When Song Nian Nian realised how much Shen Yi has done for her and was overwhelmed by his love.
