5.0/10 - Average.

As first episodes go this was a pretty easy one. A lot of setup, and a few too many time lines. We get to see the past a bit with Qian Wei and each ML. There's some good "otherly" filter going on. So that we know that the past is happening. Where Li Chong Wen makes sweet promises to Qian Wei and where Lu Xun is a jerk and watches Qian Wei, literally, falls as he upstages her. And he does it again and again.

Which than shows later on that when Qian Wei yet again literally falls that Lu Xun doesn't stop her from falling. Instead Li Chong Wen is reaching for her. Even after his harsh betrayal.

It makes me so sad that both ML kind of suck at this point. Lu Xun is 100% unlikable. Not to mention that hair. Just. No. Oh, and let's talk about this phone tracking. Is Qian Wei even aware it's happening? Did she give consent to this? Hmmmm? I guess he treats everyone terrible and talks terrible to his other partner at the firm, but still. Yikes! While Li Chong Wen looks so suave with his hair, his betrayal is cold. It makes me so said for Qian Wei. So far neither ML is worthy.

The synopsis that she is gonna end up in a coma where she's in a dream reality, instead of actually having an alternative time change makes me sad. I want it to be real. Or maybe it will be and the synopsis is wrong.

So far a solid, if boring, start. Which isn't anything to be worried about.
