This is perhaps one of the most frustrating dramas of 2018 where the only saving grace was the male lead, Han Zhang as Tong Zhuo Yao. Although the drama started on a great pace and the plot was interesting, everything went downhill when the writer(s) decided to use and overuse every single cliché about separation for someone else sake. Although the chemistry between the leading couple was good, there was not a moment that the viewer could baste in the beauty of their romance for more than a few minutes before another separation happened after promising and assuring each other that they will never leave again, making the drama more torturing than entertaining. The overall acting was very good, the actors did what they could with their given characters but that didn’t save the drama which kept getting gloomier by the minute. Also, as if one pathetic infatuated actor was not enough, there were three! One can’t help to feel sorry for these actors that had to stick with such an awfully written storyline.
