Gu Yi Bei and Su Nan were two highschool sweethearts. However, due to a undisclosed misunderstanding, the couple break up overnight. 5 years later, now being the CEO of a large IT company, Gu Yi Bei is still unable to forget his first love. So when his and Su Nan's path cross again, he tries various tricks to get them back together. What he doesn't expect, however, is that the story behind their breakup is much more complicated than he thought, and Su Nan's many secrets are slowly coming to light.

Not bad if you are looking for a low-commitment drama fix

For a short-length modern drama, this is one of the better ones - I've seen so many modern short-length ones that are excrutiating and unbearable. The production values are much better than most mini-dramas I've seen, and the music too, is surprisingly nice for a low budget production like this. The acting by the leads are generally pretty decent as well. Wang Zuyi, in particular, has a lot of potential, especially if you've seen him in the short-length costume drama, The Only Girl You Haven't Seen. He does "radiantly happy" and "earnest and vulnerable" so well, it can be a bit hard to buy the "Domineering CEO" stereotype here.

The story itself is okay, but it does lean into some classic tropes, some of which I am not a fan of, including 1) the problematic "Domineering CEO" mentioned earlier (he grabs her wrists bruisingly hard a couple of times and is kind of stalker-ish, demanding to know who she was with, even though they broke up five years earlier) and 2) the "crazy ex-girlfriend/vengeful jealous friend whose feelings are unrequited" (they have one of each here!). The ending is rushed (surprise, surprise!) and a bit .... different (for a lack of an unspoilery adjective).

I waffled between a 7.5 and an 8, and finally settled on 7.5 because of the ending and some of the CEO's behaviour -- still a high grade in my books for a short-length series. Overall, if you are looking for something modern, a quick fix with low-commitment, and modest expectations, you could do a lot worse.

In the last scene did he dream about her or really she appeared in his life

Eight minutes' drama but never realised that each episodes was just consisted eight minutes .Very nicely every part of the drama executed . All characters were good ,lead as well supporting one .
I have only complained with the drama was that it should give the drama a proper ending and for it , if it needs four more episodes then it should made it..
If She decided to leave him then why she came back ,what made her to do so or it was just his dream this part is not clear .
I think it needs a perfect ending .
