Love does not magically heal all wounds.
What I liked about this short drama:
- Gorgeous looking main leads (yes I'm shallow).
- Did not take long time to finish. Suitable for binge-watching in one sitting. If you're in a drama slump or jaded of watching a full length drama atm like me, it's refreshing to watch a short drama like this one while you wait for your drama soul to heal.
- Great chemistry between leads. You could feel their palpable chemistry whenever they were around each other.
- Good acting from the cast. The expressions shown by both leads were on point. I feel for their characters while watching.
- Spicy & angsty romance that was right up my alley. Kiss scenes in here were also better than in most full length drama I've seen.
- A kickass female lead. I have a thing for a kickass FL especially those who can fight & kill like Shen Yan.
- A formidable and protective male lead. Despite the actor is young but he has this mature vibe around him that made him looked older than he is.
- I liked the fact that both ML & FL were consistent in their revenge through & through. Even after they found love & solace in each other's arms they did'nt suddenly turn weak or forgiveable. Because realistically, love does'nt heal all wounds.
What I think was so-so about this short drama:
-Typical revenge plot. Nothing we have'nt seen before in a revenge based drama. But I know that it's unrealistic to expect more from a 3 minutes episodes short drama with 1 hour 30 minutes in total.
Lastly , I was intrigued by this beautiful poem by Su Shi that was shown at the end of the story that I think is worth sharing. Title : Donglan Pear Blossom
"The pear blossoms are pale white and the willows are dark green, and when the catkins fly, the city is full of flowers. I am saddened by the snow in the east column, and life can be seen clearly."
