It can be a better story if the writer is more. matured and creative in story writing. The lame scenes of dragging on the story, for eg. the use if repeated phone ringing to delay Wei Xiang saying he loves Yi Jie is so childish. The differentiation of a good and matured writer is the ability to write story without repeating the use of same story line. Overall, 84 episodes could either be reduce to 70 or have better non repetitive content if wanting to extend to 84 episodes. Then the story is full of contradictions that starts to get into you when it keeps dragging on.
Furthermore, scenes with exaggerated scenes to add humour starts to get irratating when used too many times. This is a poor judgement by the director and is really childish mentality. Comedy can be funny without these childish comedy actions. So typical of Taiwanese dramas... Time to grow up...
