It has the original storyline, but with a spectacular twist that just makes this show everything to me. I simply get anxious waiting for the next episode. Shancai and Daoming Si were cast perfectly in my opinion, and many others as well. There is this scene in episode 27 where I got so happy I turned the volume on 100 and replayed it over and over again. The episode I just watched happens to be episode 30, I was deceived and felt completely bad for three characters. It is definitely an emotional rollercoaster that you would wanna ride. If you aren't watching it or have a conflicted mind about watching it, you should it is absolutely amusing. It's always fun to see the "wealthy" male and "impecunious" female presented in different ways. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED, but if you are then I don't know what to tell you.
