The first two or three episodes looked very engrossing. Following episodes were somewhat mixed. I became very annoyed by many of the characters as the story progressed, especially HePing. What an idiot! The character Han Sen started off as an idiot but eventually matured and became quite likeable. Ah Li, (2nd female lead), was a woman possessed. Haven't you known one like her? I think there were too many episodes. I became very exasperated with all the leads at one point or another. The supporting roles were fine and provided some relief from all the main characters idiocy. I thought it odd t.hat Qian Man/Nan Sheng Character wore chokers throughout the program. Some resembling "collars", if you know what I mean. I kinda enjoyed the series but was not as emotionally involved as I usually get.
