I found my way to this show by flipping through Netflix desperate for something to watch.  

I committed myself to watch all of the episodes (Netflix has this for 34).  It seemed a bit long to me but I wanted to hang in there.   I wanted to play detective and find out who his father and what happened to Chen Che's mom just as bad as he did.

I am sorry to say that I failed in my quest.  At about episode 20, I gave up.  I couldn't pull myself to continue to watch this show.  So I cheated and watched the last episode.  It really didn't reveal much.  The mom looks happier and she got her happy ending with her first love.  Chen Che at first I though his love died but only to see at the end she miraculously appears in 2016.  Part of me wanted to know what the hell?  I thought because it was time travel there would be no way they would end up together.  

Their relationship seemed a bit weird to me because that was his mom's best friend and practically god mother type relationship.  Never mind the twenty year difference in age.  I wasn't really buying this relationship and although at times I do like happy endings this was one of those times that I wanted to see them fail.  Horrible of me right?  I guess I wasn't in a happily ever after mood at that point.

Anyway....being that I went straight to the end without watching in between...I still do not know who his father is (although I have a guess).  By reading some of the earlier reviews I think I have an idea of how she got pregnant but not 100%.  Although I want to know....I have no motivation to go back and watch the episodes I skipped.

Acting wise....they were ok.  Nothing to write home about.  I wasn't really invested in any of the characters.  Chen Che was ok but way too stiff for my likening.  The Guitar 5 (or whatever they called themselves) was not a group that I think I would like to hang out with.

Music:  I liked the intro song...it was nice and sounded like an oldie but goodie.
 
Not worth watching the first time let alone a 2nd.  Just my opinion.

So I guess the fat lady has sung for this drama for me.
