One of my most fave modern romcom cdramas of all time

I want to start off by saying I wasn't going to watch this drama. I've never really watched anything with Xu Kai and although I know Seven Tan is a great actress, I was always convinced she had trouble nailing more intimate scenes. I was worried about the lack of chemistry. This drama proved me wrong in so many ways.

The chemistry between XK and ST is something I never knew I needed. The storyline allows the leads to exhibit so much healthy growth throughout the drama. Lately, I've been feeling like cdramas lose steam towards the middle-end of the drama but this drama only gets better with time. The leads have real issues that normal day to day couples deal with - miscommunication yes but also different love languages, how one gives love and how the partner expects to receive it. ML just wants to protect, but FL wants transparency.

I absolutely love the love between the leads as well. He has no problem touching, hugging or kissing her or even asking for kisses and I just think it's the sweetest thing ever. XK did so, so well in this role with his microexpressions and his execution in emotional scenes. He has definitely made a fan out of me. Seven of course was excellent AND she totally reciprocated in all intimate scenes which was honestly refreshing to watch. She also had no problem exemplifying a young entrepreneur with a big dream and working hard to make it to the top. We get to see her grow in her profession and in her personal life.

The supporting leads also did their best to bolster the storyline but never overshadowed the leads. XK and ST always got the most screen time which is what fans want in the end as LEADS. I can't say the same sometimes for these other dramas when second leads and ancillary storylines honestly just get in the way.

I'm going to miss waking up early for another episode of this. Kudos to the cast and the team!
