Finally Fan Zhi Xin has a new drama

I have been a fan of his since his explosive performance in My Lethal Man.

This looks good just watching the first 4 episodes… I just hope this will NOT have a bad ending. I am a sucker for happy endings , what I hate more than sad endings are those that is without endings and leaving us with a Cliffhanger.

Thus far: ML seemed to be trying to keep ahead and keep FL alive… there are suggestions of parallel universe and somehow ML is aware of possible tragedy in another universe involving him and FL. Zhi Xin has good chemistry with the FL even if currently it mostly angsty with FL…His acing is very good especially if you watch his micro expressions.

This and My Lethal Man absolutely convinced me that Zhi Xin is an excellent actor. The script is not as tight and exciting as My Lethal man and can be a bit confusing shifting between “past” and “present “ as the interactions causes changes and where I am at Ep 12, seemed like ML died instead of FL. Though it has also scenes where FL is in a coma…

As I did expect ; it would be difficult to top My Lethal Man for a short drama ( 30 mins ) and 16 eps only. The director and script writer for that drama is excellent and so are the acting team.

What gutted me was his love confession towards the end of ep12 in French ….love it.

For a short drama, this has been a gripping story of what would you do to save your beloved. I am glad it has a happy ending…the past converges with the future and he figured how to keep his beloved from being killed. I will rewatch this. I like the reminder to live for the moment . Carpe Diem. Go ahead and watch this. I am sure most will definitely enjoy this.
