A romance between two very different people.
I went into this drama with no expectations as I didn’t really know the leads. However knowing that the male lead, Chen Xin Hai was basically debuting I was a little skeptical about it. Specially since I was at the time simultaneously watching “The Love You Give Me,” in which he played one of the secondary male leads, and I was not really liking his story line. However he demonstrated that despite being relatively new to the romance drama stage he was extremely versatile and could play really well a mature craftsman and in TLYGM a young swimming coach. The female lead I had seen once before in “Gank Your Heart,” and she was such an unimportant character that I didn’t even remember. Their love story was so beautiful to see, two people who were alone get together and join forces and despite it starting out as a sort of contractual marriage becoming a real thing pretty early on, I would say. The other leads stories were also pretty interesting to the point where I found myself invested in the entire cast not just the leads for once. The drama is smart and yes it has ex girlfriends that come back and “try” to break them off, but the main couple prevails and they don’t break up despite the distance towards the end. Something which I didn’t think the story needed to add at all. Anyways to finalize my random thoughts I personally really enjoyed this drama and highly recommend it. There is a healthy amount of drama but no unnecessary break ups, etc…
