Looking for FLUFF?
Honestly, I went into this not expecting much. Most C-dramas don't really do it for me. I also rarely ever make it to the end of them unless I am really determined to finish the drama(s) in question. This one however, is among the few that I enjoyed and successfully completed. Why thO?
1. I am a sucker for both pretty/handsome main leads.
2. The fluff was overflowing!
3. I love a good cliche done right.
Like any drama it wasn't perfect, but Yin Si Chen and Gu XiXi really had some wonderful chemistry that kept me entertained and coming back for more. I loved the progression on their relationship, the exclusion of denial when they realized they had fallen for each other, and how natural their interactions were. It's not a drama that introduces anything mind blowing or relatively 'new,' but I can say with certainty that it does the classic drama must have moments quite well and to a standard that had me eager to view episode after episode. I was actually surprised to see a lot of low reviews, but I think this can be attributed to the fact that this C-drama isn't considered "ground-breaking" or frankly all that deep. It's cute, comforting, and familiar, which I often look for in my selections, as I prefer delving into dramas for the sake of good natured escapism: mindless watching if you will.
If you are looking for something to pass the time, feel good about, and not have to analyze too deeply, I think this drama fits your bill. A truly pleasant and nicely filmed watch, despite its conventionalism.
