Enjoyable but overrated
Its a pretty decent one time watch , but it is highly overrated .It was a very happy and casual story , with some surprising twists and turns , but those definitely do not increase its rewatch value for me ! I wished there was more to MLs story than being a lover boy , I mean they showed very less about his performances ! I really liked their SWAAAAG though ! :)
I will urge people to rate the shows based on the content and overall effect and not because they are fans of certain actors .
I mean this show is having 8.8 rating at MDL , is it really comparable to Reply 1988 / flower of evil /healer category ?

Watch it for a handsome babysitter
I have mostly seen So jisub in dark roles , This one still being dark can make you laugh , without even saying anything ! Thats the power of so jisub !Jisub plays a handsome NIS agent/babysitter and he plays them both with utmost conviction ! he will just make u laugh with the way he turns his head ! His time with the kids is thoroughly enjoyable ! The KIS mommy squad is super entertaining .
Actually KIS seems better than NIS :D ... Plot holes definitely exist , but then its fine !
The only thing that annoyed me was the FL character . She was too nosy ... the writers could have given her some good reason to barge into , then probably people would not have hated her ! By this i am not commenting on her acting skills , she was exemplary with the part she was given ! but no one would want an FL who annoys u to this extent ! ;) and then suddenly she became very understanding ! This would be the only flaw I will report wrt this series .
Happy Watching !

Best Action Politics
Though i loved this series very much , but even if not I would still recommend it to watch for some hot action sequences by JCW.For the first time I would say that apart from JCW , i fell for the female villain !! She was jus exemplary ! They have depicted some heart wrenching politics and the actors playing them are just indispensable , and cant be replaced ! For a moment i thought that it would have been great if the ML fell for the main villain , coz he was just too good for FL. The only thing i dint like was the FL character , like everybody else . I agree that she was weak , but the character is still acceptable , from the point where she is coming from !
I have already rewatched it for 3 times . Just go for it !

Awesome
This is clearly the most underrated chinese wuxia series. I would say it lies in the league of tge untamed and word of honor. Definitely no less than these. The story is so out of the box . All the games along the poisons and how they try to cure them. The lead couple is adorable. I have fallen in love with zhang zhehan. He is my favorite chinese male lead so far . The other characters are also written exceptionally well. The vfx and the act when zhang zhehan turns into a gu abetted man is a treat to watch . I was just not contented with the ending . I wanted the fl and ml to spend more time together , coz they are just loveWas this review helpful to you?

Emotional and empathetic
Though i liked this drama for its acting and emotional story line , i dont think i can ever rewatch it .The plot was quite empathetic, but they stretched a single case for too long , they could have finished it in probably 12 episodes.
Apart from it the first break up between the lead couples was fine and understood , and i really liked the fact that the FL sticked to him and follow him around , unlike other romcoms where they easily have change of heart. But the second bteak up made me really hate the FL, it was totally uncalled for . You stick to someone who has saved u and thinks his only way to live is to be with u .. u dont leave and walk away ! And then later she lectures him that walking away is not an answer 🙄.. i totally dint get it !

Boring and cringe
The reason i started watching it was good reviews , throughout. I have watched a dizen or even more c dramas and this one is the worst of them all. The story is too boring, cringe and cliche. The characters are good specially the male lead, but the intertwining between the male lead and female lead is too boring. They do not have proper communications. Only the effection from male lead is shown until end . The female lead is suspicious and annoying for no reason.There is one and only one point i like for this drama , is for its positivity. Despite for few small misunderstanding the story is quite happy go lucky kind of. But definitely it has been stretched to far extends . It could have easily wrapped on 10 episodes
