This drama started out to be very annoying, boring and confused because of it's political issues, connections and the amount of unnecessary character you have to remember but later become irrelevant to the story. This could be one of the many reasons many of you had dropped this drama, BUT, this drama turns out to be really great.

First, the costumes in this drama are amazing. Usually, there is more historical period drama compared to this time period type of drama, therefore the costumes presented in here are relatively simple, but they are very beautiful and elegant. It straight out defines the status of a person depends on each character are dressed.

Second, I've read most comments and a lot of people are saying the female lead, Sun Yi was annoying. At first, I agreed with this statement, because the male lead Lian Kai had loved her for a long time, and he's been patiently waiting for her to reply back to his love but she just seems arrogantly ignored him because of her ex-boyfriend. Then her side of the story was told, and I came to understand her character a little better. She was practically being pushed into an unwanted marriage for her parent benefit, and toward the man that is known as a playboy, therefore she just sees herself as a tool for other's happiness, but she doesn't know that Lian Kai was already in love with her.

Lastly, I just want to say there will be dramas that will be in a tragedy like this one and that will be completely normal because not every ending has to be happy, plus this author is known for her heartbreaking novel, but still being able to captivate the audience's attention. I hope you guys would give this drama a chance, putting the expectation that you had on other drama and put it on here, watch it with a refreshing mindset, skip the political issues if you want to, but honestly the developmental of the character and the progress of their love is truly beautiful.
