It Was Bizarre at Times
This series was somewhat bizarre and all over the place. It started off cute, gradually became annoying, and then took a drastic turn to being cute again. It did not help that the very basic story concept was not well executed.
The positive: The cast was great and tried their best considering what they were given. The reality type interview scenes were enjoyable. It had a happy ending, and the opening and closing credits was fun to watch.
The negative: Unfortunately, the script and execution was simply not quite there. Xia Shang Zhou and Yao Shun Yu’s relationship had an interesting and cute beginning, but became tedious and annoying during most of the series. It’s hard to explain, but the comedy did not work. I was also not a fan of the comic book aspects used in the first few episodes.
Random Note:
Don’t stop watching after the montage of pictures in the first episode and closing credits in the last episode because there is an additional scene after it.
Can someone please explain how is this linked to the series Stay by My Side. It’s listed as a compilation series but I must have missed something.
I know I’m going to sound like a broken record, but the synopsis on Viki does not accurately describe what goes on in the series.
