Undecided Female Lead

I have very high hopes for this drama when I view several snippets. Though the story is not quite believable, I thought it might bring something different. I also like the male lead, Ao Rui Peng from his previous drama Poisoned Love. I love that drama so I was like thinking this could be the same.

The first few episodes is okay. I mean the chemistry and such. I haven't seen any drama by the female lead, Rain Lu but i mean acting wise I find it okay. Not the best one but still okay. But along the way, the female character attitude becomes unbearable in so many ways. She knows for a fact already that the male lead is AI. Of course, he is not human. He will not grow old. But she still chose to fall in love and save him. But is so many times the guy proposes, she will reject it, then mull over and regret. Then, give him a chance then decide it will not work out. Like what the hell! If this is not known from the initial episodes, then I could totally understand why you keep rejecting the male lead. But girl! You know it already. This made the drama feel like dragging already and loose sense. I mean, i know that female lead is usually portrayed like the weaker sex, fine. But her indecisiveness here is something I cannot ignore.

I wish the writers are more creative on how to tackle the issue further. Or how to progress the story further. Like the story about My Girlfriend is an Alien drama. Also, I cannot ignore the fact how they dresses the male lead. He is supposed to be an idol. I wish they could dress him in more flattering clothes. His casual clothes looks fine. But whenever they show him in his idol clothes, it doesn't do any justice given he has a great physique.

In still in progress watching it and will try to finish it since I only have few episodes left. But basically, this is something you can watch one time. Side stories are also confusing and not much interest so I skip a great deal of it. The music, it is something familiar. The melody. I cannot figure which drama was it. Anyway, once you hear it, it sounds familiar.

UPDATE: I decided to drop it. I cannot bear to watch this show further. I know just few more episodes but I cannot really take the story line anymore so I just jumped and see the last episode. As mentioned above, this is something you can watch once...and probably you will do a lot of skipping or fast forwarding. I really like you Ao Rui Peng, but sorry! This show did you dirty :(
