Hit or miss

This is one of those shows where you either enjoy the drama and it's your cup of tea or you loathe it. The first 2-3 episodes of the drams is the part that determined that. I admit that the 1st episode was so odd but I feel that moment you look past that, it is a drama you can thoroughly enjoy it.

A lot of people had high hopes for the drama but some ended up being let down. I consider this a shame because of the main cast they had but the plot was quite cliche and overused. There were parts that were "new" to see and that was hopeful for the drama. The mains were beyond childish towards each other and I occasionally found myself smiling during those moments. For once the lead actually talk about their feelings. It is a mature relationship which is refreshing to watch.

I like the main leads but the second leads were beyond questionable, especially Mi Gu. She is ready to ruin her friend for some guy knowing qell what Zhao Ran and Xiao Chu's history is like.  What a character and a horrible friend, she needs her priorities checked. If I was Xia Chu I would have dropped her long time ago but then the story wouldn't have a plot to explore. Xia Chu is also too navie to just believe Mi Gu. Another thing that irritated me was the amount of screen time the second leads got!!! Atleast Mi Gu got a brain at the end. I personally ship Xia Chu's mentor and the mom a lot, they were cute. The boy is as well, I love his acting, mate is truly going places.

I felt that the professional portrayal was meh but the military part had more accuracy than the medical part. At least with my limited knowledge. As it got towards the end it became rushed. Ugh!!!
