Characters +, but Interaction Between Them -

This wasn't my favorite drama due to the interaction (or lack thereof) between the characters:

1. I thought Xiao Zhou should have been featured more, both as Duo Duo's English tutor and as Fang Yuan's work friend/colleague. Rose could have also been better utilized within the series (i.e. maybe expanding upon the jealousy of Li Xiang's and Duo Duo's feelings for each other).
2. Either Frank should have been found or the kiddos should have told the owner that they lost him.
3. I didn't really get the point of having Mu Mi* and his team in the series.
4. They used arguing as "entertainment value" for the series, but it definitely was not entertaining at most times. Also the amount of times people ended up getting hospitalized seemed rather exaggerated and unrealistic.
5. I wish there were more scenes with Duo Duo and the TFBoys.

However, I still give this series a semi-decent review because production made the overall story seem relatable and the characters as individuals were well drawn out.

*Wayne Liu is excellent in True Colors though
