I dithered between 7 and 8.5, finally deciding on a 8 because I don't do halves!A 8 is a good drama and rewatchable and anything higher than 8 is good, rewatchable and something I must own.
I want to own this series because it was a feel-good drama with comic relief, a low level of suspense despite the mystery and mob background of the storyline. The cast chemistry was excellent especially between Megan Lai and Baron Chen.
I deducted points because of the plot and cliches. Though these negatives had its own charm, I felt there was no enough substance to maintain the pace of the show. It might have been better to make the series a few episodes shorter. tightening the sub plots.
I would recommend this for its sweetness, and how they treat the subject of same gender love, for the chemistry between the leads and for the laughs. But do not expect anything substantial.
PS: I >might< still decide to own this series. =^_-=
How I rate

5 = okay, but will never watch again
8 = good with rewatch value
>8 = good with rewatch value and must OWN!
