First and foremost: I am biased when it comes to dramas. I usually watch costume dramas and these modern dramas aren't really my thing. However i wanted to give this one a try for Zhang Zhe Han. I have to say, it wasn't the worst i ever watched, but i also know i probably won't be watching it again. That to the side:
The story in itself has a good plot and set up: but is poorly executed. It drags on too much and what has been taking up 36 episodes could have been done in 20 or less with the same effect.
What really annoyed me was the Chairman's acting, who -to my opinion- didn't rely enough on his expression but too much on his head movements. Which made me think i was watching a bobble-head. The chemistry between the two leads also wasn't all there. Zhang Zhe Han did his best with this one i'm sure, but it's not his most impressive work.
Next to that, the guy who played Tao Lun also didn't really convince me with his acting and the 180 degree turn of his character's personality in later episodes really irked me.
The soundtrack made it better because there are some good songs in there. But it didn't make up for the agonizing slow pace of plot and character development. Neither for the lack of convincing romance or character personalities. All in all i think they did good with what they had, but they could have done better. 6/10
