I've watched Joy of Life and I think I like this series better!

The main character was a bit disappointing at first as I assumed it would be Zhang Ruo Yin, but his amazing acting and characterizations succeeded to capture my heart. I also really like the female lead and how she is not weak but can stand on his own right (definitely not a damsel in distress type that makes you frustrated). Kudos to the guy who plays Ning Yi, who will be compared to Zhang Ruo Yin (who I've liked since the Dr. Qin series) regardless of what he did, but I surprisingly ended up liking him more than the previous male lead in Joy of Life.

He seems less cliche and perfect and that makes him and his struggles much more relatable.

Romance is really fun and I like the playful chemistry between the two leads. Definitely a must-watch series :)

Sadly, the show lags and kind of loses its point from ep 12 onwards, but I still really really like the start of this drama.
