First half was hilarious and then did a 180

This started off really strong as a comedy. I started watching this show because of Zhang Yue Nan, the actress for the FL. I like that she's lively and full of expression, although some people may find her expressions overexaggerated. But given the comedic tone of the beginning of this show, I think her acting is appropriate.

I breezed through the first 10 episodes. There were multiple moments where I laughed out loud, and I enjoyed the light-heartedness of the drama. I like that the FL stands up for herself and speaks up (even though things don't always go her way). Also the brothers get along and don't get jealous and start undermining each other. The actors were generally solid.

Then somewhere along the way the drama did a total 180 and I was just left in shock at how quickly things just went downhill. The story turned really dark and it was so frustrating and hard to watch. Everything seemed futile. This turn of events is just very poor and ruins the second half of the drama for me. It felt like the writer purposely wanted to add some drama to it and make it emotional, so they twisted the story. Not cool.

Overall I still give this a 7.5 rating given that I still enjoyed a good majority of the drama.
