Expectations vs ....
For this drama I have waited for almost a year and I finally had a chance to watch its subbed version. At first the title intrigued me as I found it similar to the movie title Zootopia so I had thought it would maybe be related to animals. But it wasn't, it was just a normal entertaining Chinese rom-com.
The OST was a bit different from the usual fluffy kind I generally find in most romcom dramas which was a highlight I paid attention to. There is not much more to say about the music to go into detail . These are the two OST's they used from what I found out.
- Qing Kong (晴空) by Zhou Rui (周锐)
- Chi Dao De Yao Ding (迟到的约定) by Chen Yi Han Estelle (陈意涵Estelle)
The story, as I told earlier, is a regular Chinese rom-com. There were places were I felt the plot was a bit unnecessary and also felt that few of the characters's sketch was though entertaining was a bit childish. It was cute in some ways whereas the more I got into the drama it made it a little tiring.
The acting and the performance was quite artificial in a few scenes which brought down a lot of expectations I had for the drama, it didn't give that realistic feeling but rather gave a vibe of people(actors) just acting out the script than giving a real emotional performance if that made any sense. This maybe because of the script being quiet cliche and that I have heard most of the lines before( this is just my opinion) or also because of most of the actors are newcomers.But as I went further into the episodes it turns out to be a quite nice story. It didn't have too may unnecessary misunderstandings or twists and they kept the storyline quite simple.
But from what I saw overall it is a watchable drama, nothing to dislike about. If one likes these types and genre dramas then I'm sure they would enjoy it. if you haven't watched this type before then I'm sure you would like it.
