High Production Value!

First of all, let me write this review as someone who already read and finished the novel. The plotline so far has been very good and is very consistent with the novel. Some might say, the actor looks too young, well they're supposed to represent a college student, of course, they have to be young. Need I remind you that the character here is of a college student and a young businessman?

In terms of acting, I was pleasantly surprised at one actor, in particular, Nunew's acting was very good and believable for a rookie actor, and no I don't mean the struggle acting that you usually find, he's actually decent (mind you I stan Nadao actors so yes I know what good acting looks like).
For other supporting actors I can't say the same, some are still stiff but I'm willing to see if they will improve.
The main actors have really good chemistry and I mean good chemistry because, in the novel, Lian's character IS SUPPOSED to act aloof in front of Nu Kuea at least for a while, that's the whole point of the story, why you ask? that will be revealed in the latter part.

Now moving on to the next part, the cinematography. So far I've only seen good shots. The color grading, camera angle and lighting are all well done. The interior design used in every place shown in the series is also so far so good.

I try to write this review as objectively as I can because i have no experience with these actors in the past. All in all, this is a feel-good series, one with a cliche plot, but is very excellently done. If you're looking for a light series to enjoy with good production value, this one is a good candidate!

p.s. The arranged marriage was never forced upon the main leads, they have actually been in a lot of situation where the family tell them that those aren't serious and they should do what they wanna do. Whether or not it is problematic is all up to individual interpretation.
