I wasn't sure what to expect watching this, I saw a few clips a couple months ago and added it to my watchlist, but I never got around to watch it. I saw the reviews on mydramalist and its literally the highest rated chinese drama I saw for romance, so I decided to give this a try.
I thought this was just so amazing and indepth, usually I only watch these heavy dramas if they're Korean, it's my first to watch a modern drama that has this kuch conflict etc. But I enjoyed every bit of it, there was so much going on in te kids lives, I felt so heartbroken so many times, it's truly great that they has each other to to through or get over there traumas.
I also liked the different perspective and approach they took for this drama, some may say anti-feminist but that's not quite fair, many times I've seen so many single mother shows, movies around the world but you never really see single father shows, that's just as important or indepth like the latter. They truly did a great job portraying these things in this drama, it was a great experience watch this, seeing how the fathers were and how the moms were, moms make mistakes just as dads though sometimes and I loved the story about this one, it shoes you that it is possible to happen and how each mom resolve there issues with there kids or how the kids resolves the issues with the moms and some dads as well.
The romance stars halfway through, it's pretty sweet between the ML and FL. I wouldn't really say there is a love triangle, so don't worry about that. This was a great experience to watch, good life lessons and so on. I enjoyed it.
The reason I give 9.5/10 stars, was because there were a few things that I wish was a bit different, the way the romance started I wish they kinda took a different approach or different choices of words. Also I wish one of the mom had apologize to her child for a specific incident that they didn't not cause but was blamed for, it traumatized the child and though the mom apologized for many things. I wish that specific thing was addressed and discussed because it was the main root and cause of the broken relationship. Other than that, even though there wasn't a whole lot of romance, it's my first to truly enjoy such a drama like this.
Another things I loved is the FL, I watched this also mainly cause I just finish watching Under The Power and loved it, and loved the character and acting if the same FL, so I thought I had to really pick this up, she is an amazing actress, I love how she never ever comes across as annoying, I've seen so many chinese and other dramas and gosh the FL most are so annoying at some point. Her character in this isn't at all, and she doesn't chase the guy/guys, she's the one being persued I loved that.
