No Consistency
I first started watching the drama because the trailer looked good as I enjoy watching detective shows. But i found myself struggling to finish halfway through. This drama has two separate stories lines. One that takes place in Thailand, and one out of Thailand. The first half of the show involved a group of detectives solving a mystery in Thailand. The first storyline was well thought off. There was alot of suspense and action that kept me on my toes. After that was solved, the drama suddenly shifted scenery and focused on another group of detectives, not linked to the group in Thailand. The plot for the second storyline felt childish in comparison to the first. Personally, I like to see characters grow. So the fact that the Thailand group was just cut off like that was a big no no for me. But because there were 3-4 episodes left, I just endured till the end.Was this review helpful to you?

When I saw that Simon Gong was going to star in this, it piqued my interest. Zhao Fanzhou is a handsome and odd genius, who does not bother much with society. It took a blubbly personality like Zhou Xiao to grab his attention. In the beginning you could see Zhao Fanzhou was intrigued by her. Slowly viewing her from a far, before he started interacting with her. It didn't take him long to realised he had developed feelings for her. Gosh! I really like how sweet the male and female lead's chemistry is! At first I was not attracted to Liu Ren Yu's acting, as a character who loves detective novels to extreme. But then after awhile her character grew on me. And I realised how well she acted in her role, as someone who grabs the attention of Zhao Fanzhou's character. Zhao Fanzhou was also sweet in his own way, trying his best to be a good boyfriend to her. Holding hands, sneaking kisses in public and making Zhou Xiao blush.Like every drama, there will always be villian(s) trying to break the couple up. After the breakup, it was one year later that Zhao Fanzhou found that the villian(s) made them misuderstand one another. He tried his best to get back his relationship with Zhou Xiao. This is where I would like to praise Zhou Xiao's character, Liu Ren Yu's acting again. After Zhao Fanzhou tried to clear the misuderstandings, at least she had some backbone and not get back with him straight away. Hence he had to work hard to get her back. Eventually after they got back together, I like how Zhao Xiao showed some insecurity if getting back was the right descision. But Zhao Fanzhou reassured her he will not break up with her again
Fast forward, they still remain a couple and eventually got married!! This drama was so adorable, showing college love. I would also like to commed supportings characters. Without them, the drama would not be a complete success! Kudos to the cast for a wonderful drama as well as the screenwriter.
