Zui Ai overall length runs to about 60min therefore this short drama is a perfect watch! I find this chinese concept of short dramas with micro length episodes (here less than 2min each!!!) amazing and confusing! Really, why make 2min episodes that you'll end up editing into a movie eventually? I guess these are dramas for today's tiktok generation!

The story is a bit convoluted and since it is so short, they did away with in depth explanations which is fine. Ming JieJie is a private detective trying to discover the truth behind a huge arson her father had been accused of setting 10years earlier while she was still a child. There are two men involved with her but also connected to the fire and eventually we discover how while both of them hit on her! There is everything in this story: crime, mystery, corruption, conspiracy, investigation, romance, revenge! They did well!

As for the production values, this was quick: editing was good since they managed to keep the essential of scene though sometimes the transitions between sequences were not clear enough. The sound editing was bad: surrounding noise and music mostly drowned the dialogue so thank god for subs! Music was nice; there was a selection of chinese, western and korean songs (I recognized the languages, that's all! not the songs!) which were really good. I am going to look some of them up. The costumes were elegant but whats with the ML's messy hair? It's not even styled "out of bed" it just looks like they forgot to comb it!
All three leads had good chemistry with each other. The rest of the cast was bit on a caricature lever which is understandable considering the length of the drama: so the obnoxious people looked so(clothes!) even before doing anything! Nice solution in order not to waste time!

I watched this because I needed something beginning with Z for my alphabet watch drama challenge and I am glad I saw it!
