I just finished the last episode. This series is aesthetically pleasing to the eye in terms of good looking actors, scenery and costume, but the acting was so-so and the script silly and unoriginal. Our ML just really needs more acting classes. I had seen him in Meteor Garden, another stinker, and didn't think much of his work as his part was so small. Here he is given the entire drama to carry, but it just wasn't as good as it could have been due to the sloppy writing, and depthless characters. The FL was much more fun to watch. She was very cute and playful, and seemed more at ease in her part. Whereas our ML takes himself much too seriously, our FL is his perfect foil. She makes utter fun of him.
It started well enough. I was invested and my heart truly ached for them when their foolishness caused each other pain. But as the story went along, it seemed to lose its direction and trotted to a quickly wrapped up ending. I got the feeling the script writers had no idea how to finish this story so it meandered to a less than stellar end. The last scene set in the present made no sense whatsoever. It should have been cut.
This is one I would not watch again. If I had to choose between this and Maiden Holmes, MH would win out. I found the actors more talented and the story better written.
