I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it. It was just a solid, "I liked that" drama. I was a little iffy after they recast the main characters, but honestly, Mike and Esther did a fantastic job playing the two mains and keeping that original essence that we saw in season 1. One of the things I didn't love about this drama was seeing Tian Jing Zhi struggle with her love for Xue Ling Qiao and ultimately self sabotaging herself. I totally get it to an extent - homeboy left her at the end of season one and there was nothing that would make him stay, but he ended up moving in across the street when he finds out she is pregnant. Plus he wasn't all that "upfront" when his love for her evolved and he wanted to stay for her as well. I get it to an extent why it was harder for her to open up and accept any love from him because he left once before. But literally this drama dragged on for so long that I needed to take break after break. Nothing was happening and I was only watching his drama to see when Xue Ling Qiao would just put his foot down and confess. I also watched to see my two favorite side characters which I will not name because both actually played a HUGE part in this whole drama. One ended up being the villain (we don't find out who it is until the last 5 episode, but it was so obvious in the beginning) and one ended up sacrificing themselves to save Xue Chang'an. They were my favorites because they were both given backstories that were super emotional. It was the reason why I couldn't hate the dark coated villain in this drama; they had such a tragic backstory and death in their human life and all they wanted was some kind of redemption from it and after hundreds of years, they got lost and went down a dark path. But I don't think you were supposed to dislike anyone in this drama. I feel like this drama was filmed and written as if it were through the eyes of Tian Jing Zhi - over the top, fun, silly, sad and angry at times, but learn to forgive. I didn't hate this drama, but I didn't love it. It felt like it just dragged on and it made me dislike Tian Jing Zhi as a character. There were a few grouped episodes at the end that I really liked her in once she was serious, but then the last two episodes showed a 3 year time jump and...she was back to her annoying self. Plus because there were so many episodes, a lot of situations were dragged out and fully explained in 2 or 3 episodes. But then you get the final 2 episodes that were extremely rushed and the one wedding scene that I basically watched this whole series to see...wasn't satisfying. Such as, before the time jump there were still a few issues that hadn't been solved and weren't until exactly 3 years later and we have no idea how they were solved, but they just were. An example being, the death of my favorite character. When they died, it took 2 or 3 episodes for everyone to mourn them...including me...I was very upset, but then RANDOMLY in the final episode he gets brought back to life. No explanation how it was possible after 3 years. Happy they brought them back, but upset how they went about it. Actually the last 2 episodes, I was upset how they went about it all. The only thing that redeemed it whatsoever was the final, final episode of the drama. It was quirky and cute and very My Amazing Boyfriend.
