Esta resenha pode conter spoilers
A cute and light drama that was undone by its length.
So I started this without too many expectations, I just wanted something fun and light to watch, which it was. This is not something with a super deep plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat or in suspense. So I watched at my own pace, whenever I had the time. Even though there is nothing unique about the plot it was entertaining in its own right. It's your standard childhood friends/crush that is explored as adults, and I liked that it was set up against a corporate background, so we got to see the leads as working individuals and not just as a couple. I enjoyed watching the characters' journies, whether it be in love or work and the chemistry between the main leads was really good. The second couple was cute too. The side characters were not all that present throughout the show, so I felt that they lacked dynamic.
That being said I need to mention Du Lei. The writers did such a great job with his character development, only to ruin it at the last moment. He went from being someone we were slightly suspicious of, to someone who was growing into himself and figuring out what he really wants from life, which was honestly just love. Even though the girl he loved, loved someone else he was supportive and never made her feel uncomfortable. At one point he and the ML lead were even becoming friends. But in the last 6 episodes, everything went to hell. He become a bad guy who started using his job for illegal gain, became pushy and jealous with the FL, and even forced an unwanted kiss onto her at the end. They didn't just undo his character development, they pushed him into the negative. He became someone completely unrecognizable. This was honestly the biggest disappointment of the drama.
I also hated the story in the last 6 episodes, especially when the ML was trying to convince the FL that she should quit her job and stay home to start a family, that he was rich enough to support all of them. Thank god the show didn't end up going that route. Honestly those last 6 episodes were so unnecessary. If this show ended at ep 30, its rating would be much higher.
However, don't let that stop you from picking this up. If you want something that's light and fun, and you can watch at your own pace, this is definitely a good choice. Maybe just skip the last 6 episodes.
