Same ol' same ol'
The trailer was interesting, unfortunately after watching just 2 episodes I saw that it was again just the typical "romance" C-Drama with the typical twenty-something actors/actresses. Only difference, at least in the episodes I watched, the action is somewhere in Eastern Europe. Okay, but when Victoria Song talks to her boss in Chinese and he answers in English for quite a while I was thinking: "Seriously"? They couldn't get a Chinese actress that speaks English for this part? How realistic is that? Then I saw Leo Luo acting his part as a tough agent/broker in a fight with several people. For heavens sake, he is just too young for this role. If at least he looked kind of tough and mean, but no, quite the opposite....From then it just went downhill for me. Apparently someone thought let's make a series with some more or less fresh faces, underutilized actors, for people like me that are getting tired of seeing the same actors in more or less the same roles. I have no problem with this idea. Only problem is, these actors should be in some other series. The action genre, no, most definitely not. "Broker" is screaming for actors at least 10 years older than the actors here plus some common sense added to the scenes.
