hmmm.. this is the reason why i don't want to watch movies that came from a novel or book i have already read.But i guess i did and now, i'm disappointed again.. Not just the ending is frustrating but, some of the best scenes are not included.. Really.. Trust me,.. Just read its novel through webnovel.com.. Its title is "Bringing the Nation's Husband Home".. Its more interesting, more intense and more "kilig"..haha Don't know how to say it in English... :) It's ending also is good and satisfying.. Try it.. I know the actors in the movie are good, but some of the scenes from the novel, they didn't portray it good.. Especially for the main characters.. the novel states their description but in the movie, there's a big difference.

Well how should I start.

Story 9/10 - A differ between the WEBTOON and the web drama with a lot of cut scenes. If they had added the special episodes to the web drama it will be a 10/10 for sure.

Acting: Both leads were fantastic - Dylan (loved his eye contact and his smile that shows it all) and Sierra (loved her gentle, polite and shy personality). Also, I'm really amazed with Lu Jin Nian's secretary (don't know his name) well done job. As well as the evil step mother Tien Hsin who portrayed the role really well to be hated.

Music: Beautiful, sad and lovely. Love the opening song "I Love You" so sweet and romantic and all the in between slotted songs by both leads and others.

Conclusion: Overall this is a very excellent web drama even though the web drama is not completed that has a combination of happy and sad ending.

Worst...
I haven't read novel or comic and watched anime before.
the main story was look interesting. But Unfortunately that the director ,screen writer and acting coach
they didn't make it well ,almost scenes were so bad.
Some didn't make sense at all ,
such as when the bad mother in law asked housekeeper to keep An Hao's pee for pregnant test ..
Seriously...how the housekeeper did it? Anhao didn't flush?
Or the producer shun said he can prove whose hairs by smelling??
So ridiculous!

I think they would do ss2
Please make it better! Do job harder !

Story: I normally don't write reviews, but this one i just had to write a review that it's not worth it. It started out as interesting with flashbacks but after a few episodes it started to drag. The built up was there however towards the end it feels like they screenwriter did not do it justice. I didn't see the webtoon so i can't compare to it but I'm thinking it's much better.

Acting/Cast: Cast had chemistry but the lead male was very stiff the entire drama. The supporting cast actually outshine the main leads. Their story was much more interesting.

Music: Beside the opening song the other songs were not memorable.

Rewatch Value: Skip it all together.

This drama is good, BUT THE ENDING?! Okay, lets talk about how the leads to the supports stories unfolds, from youth, to where they are now. Everything is good.

The acting, I would consider nice, each one justify the characters they portray. Tell you what actually, this drama got a good evil step mom villain, she will make you really, really, mad. The leads got the chemistry too.

The thing I just dont get is how fuck up the ending is given there is no suppose season 2 announced yet??? So they are just gonna leave it like that? Its annoying! A lot of things are still in mess and the final scene, LOL not funny!

If you will watch this drama I rather you stop with episode before the finale, Im saving you despair :)

This was an amazing drama overall. As someone who is picky about her drama's this drama caught my interest right away. The story line was interesting and something different from some other drama's I have watched. Although the storyline was good, it did have its downside and upside. I felt like at time there could have been more to the plot...I feel like there were things that were not said and done. I have heard that the book was better than the show. I agree it probably is even though i did not read it. I feel like there somethings that need to be explained in more depth.
The acting was amazing, the cast did an amazing job playing their parts. Dylan Xiong is one of my favorite actors. The main female lead did a great job portraying her character. I felt each emotion that the characters felt in the drama. And that is something I think that is what makes actors and actresses stand out more. Is when they are able to engage their audience and make them feel the emotion hey are feeling. I would love to give you an example but it would spoil the drama.
I enjoyed this drama a lot, but the feeling os missing something in the storyline bothered me a lot. I do also have to say the ending made me very frustrated. It was very abrupt and wished that the director had made the series a few more episode longer to explain the history (you will understand what I mean when you start the drama). But I do recommend the drama for everyone to watch. I do wish for season 2.

I went through 28 episodes to finally come to an ending like this ????????????
I hope there is a season 2 or else the ending ruined the whole show for me. I was really excited about the ending. Ughhhhhhhhh I am sooo angry. I thought it'll be a cute romantic ending because I started watching the show coz I needed something light. But. But God had different plans for me. How am I supposed to sleep after this ending? HOW?
P. S. I am not revealing in the beginning that this review contains spoilers because I don't want some one else to be dissappointed like me. Choose wisely. It was a good watch but that last minute of the show broke my heart. Why, why couldn't they end it nicely so that I could sleep peacefully?Ughhhhhhhh

It was an amazing drama. This is the second drama of Dylan that I'm seeing. His smile and expressions are killer.
I think the drama had an abrupt ending. Maybe the story in incomplete. If it is so I hope that they make a season 2 of it. I heard that this is a remake of a book. I've not yet read that book and I'm not sure if even in the story in the book ends in such a way.
The second lead and the assistants of the first lead also acted really well.
Xu Jia Mu's mother also played her role really well...I guess many people must be batting her after seeing this drama

Story starts off really well. There were moments when my heart ached for the lead actors. Sometimes it is unbelievable that a single person can have so many misunderstandings in a single life....But then again it's a DRAMA. The actors were really great. I was actually confused with the ending. When I watched the last episode, I googled it twice thrice to see if I missed any episodes. The ending was really too abrupt. I was rather disappointed with it. I will never watch this drama again knowing the ending. But the journey is worth a while....rather than the destination. So you can walk through the story and it's good and bad moments without hesitation....Just be ready for the ending...
Again a compliment to the acting skills. I enjoyed the show...not the end. But it's worth watching.

if you’re desperate, it can help you focus your anger on something else!!

this is the worst drama ever , from the beginning to the end , it doesn’t worth it , It is the most vulgar scenario in the world , The romantic shots don't make sense at all, I don't know how he kept her from falling off the swing while he was straight on the ground? And when she was asking for help on the beach, although she could walk to reach the beach easily, but he stumbled in the sand!! Finally, they reached another island? Hey, does this make sense?
And they were having the same iphone for the whole 13 yrs !!i mean 13 years before 2018??? Wasn’t that 2005? Was there an iPhone ? Were there even touchscreen smartphones?
I need not mention that the series is based on a misunderstanding followed by another misunderstanding
Throughout the drama, there was nothing good except for the story of the secondary characters, Xiang Si and Jia Mu, but even these people's relationship became based on a misunderstanding. If you're asking me if it's that bad, why did I watch it? I'll tell you that because I was depressed
And also the end is the worst after he asked her to marry ,he came back to push her and keep her away from him
They act for acting but their acting is already the worst
Rewatch value : zero**

Story start with a good note , love story of school's friends who are interconnected with eachother as family and family's business partners .. some of the middle episodes were getting bored because misunderstanding instead of getting solve ,there was a creation of new misunderstanding then everything getting solve so the drama ends with new misunderstanding..
Male lead actor all the time in a drama had same facial expression that is monotonous face because he faced a lot in his life but at some stage his acting looked loose not felt connected with the character. There is very less eye contact when he talk with the others ,I think that's maked that his acting at some point is so loose ..At some point he had happy scene where he looked cute and felt connected with the character.
Female lead actor acting was good she looked all the time cute, Adorable and beautiful.. .
Second lead couple story I didn't getting it why director didn't solve their love story because this drama has a second season .
I wish that second season has same character .

Do not waste your time!

What Did I Watch!?!
This was a task to finish, but I did.
It dragged too much. To have all these people go on one person's word and not connect the dots to the hell that's running loose is crazy. This supposed 'deep love' that the leads had for each other but can't communicate was tiring. Production was decent and acting was decent. Writing and OST was lack-luster. If this is from a novel, I hope the novel is better.
The ending.... makes you want to throw something at the screen for wasting your time.
