For the first time, I am stumped about what to write in this review. I enjoyed the relationship between the two mains Bei Bei and Dr Zhou, and was sucked into the story and drama from the beginning. Both characters were genuinely good people who found one another, fell in love, and shared their love with one another and the world. Dr Zhou reminded me a lot of Zhao Nai from Love020, while Bei Bei reminded me of every role I've ever seen the main actress in, except for this time Bei Bei was a bit naive and overly dramatic but had one of the biggest hearts. She always saw the good in people, even when there was always someone trying to tear her and her career down. It was refreshing knowing that the only thing I didn't like about Bei Bei was how she just viewed life as a romance drama, and whenever there was a situation, she would react with a lot of flare. But it made it very enjoyable to watch as Dr Zhou loved Bei Bei's dramatics and never thought she was overreacting, even when the viewer did, and vice versa with Bei Bei loving the normalness of Dr Zhou. They loved one another for who they were, craziness and all.

This leads me to my least favorite couple, Dr Xiao & Di Di. I thought that they were very opposite of the mains. I loved Dr Xiao and thought he was very much a guy version of Bei Bei, as they had very similar dramatics and were very passionate people and I believe that Dr Zhou def has a type that he likes to surround himself with (dramatic, passionate, big-hearted people). This is why I couldn't get behind his relationship with Di Di. Di Di is a very strong-minded person, who after a failed engagement, is very set in her ways (which isn't a bad thing whatsoever), but when she finally opened her heart to Dr Xiao, she had this mindset where she liked him but would love him more if he changed his habits. And it was weird as a viewer seeing this relationship between Dr Zhou and Bei Bei form with total love of one another, and then seeing Di Di always needing something more from her partner. Given, Dr Xiao would do anything and change anything in order for Di Di to reciprocate his feelings, so he is also to blame for my dislike for them. And I know that every relationship is different and not easy, but I felt like there was always something with them two, and it got old quickly. It got to a point where I wanted to fast forward through their scenes but decided against it cause I loved Dr Xiao's character.

Overall, I enjoyed how this drama was a good balance of easy watching as well as being super dramatic where everything either ended up in best-case scenarios or worst. Such as at one point (SPOILER) Bei Bei got sick and thought she was pregnant and then told everyone...even though her and Dr Zhao had never been "intimate" that the viewer was aware of, especially when they have a talent of always getting disturbed while they are about to kiss. It turned out that her body just didn't react well to her intense dieting, and I am sitting here like...this is the theme of this drama. The obvious first reaction is never thought about until the very end when someone else had to tell the mains...yo...what?

Given, I did enjoy this drama as the dramatics were easy to laugh at and the mains would eventually get to the right place...eventually. But I do think this drama would have been better if there was less Di Di. Also, I would have been more interested in more Jiawei and him building his relationships. He was a very enjoyable character and thought his store moved a little too quickly for the few minutes he had at the end.
