It's more sad than giddy
I normally collect my favorite giddy scenes from a drama but I wasn't able to collect such from this because almost all of their encounters are just so sad. You know those dramas/movies where the protagonist prepares for death and prepares everything that they will leave behind? Such never fails to make me cry.
What I didn't like about this is how they took sooooo long to resolve the super obvious? They started hinting on who was the mastermind behind their accident early on but only resolved it at the last episode? I forwarded many scenes regarding this because it was just so obvious and predictable that I no longer care.
What I deeply cared about is how will the male lead survive? Will he die? But knowing C-dramas, i doubt he would. I would've been super disappointed if they somehow miraculously come up with a ridiculous plot on how they will let him leave. I thought it would have to do something with Dr. P being alive after all, the assistant a bad person, or a thunder will hit him and let him live. I even thought that the accident at the last episode would definitely cure him. BUT im glad they didn't come up with such ridiculous plots.
I want to comment on the second couple and their acting. I think Xu fits the role well (probably because of his real life playboy image). I love their story too but I think Yan Yan was a little bit too strict. About Yan Yan's acting, it was bad! Especially on the emotional scenes. When Xu finally told her about Gu, I was already crying my eyeballs out but she remained calm? No tears? That's it? I mean, the most important person in your man's life is dying, can't you at least empathize? And when she was proposing at the end, it was an emotional scene but she again remained with no tears. Probably because her character's supposed to be tough. But still, I believe that emotions have to be properly expressed in necessary scenes.
I've never liked Fair Xing and her dramas but I keep watching because of the rom-com plot. I gotta say, she still does not impress me. But at least she finally got paired with someone who's not that tall and someone who matches her height well. This is also my first time watching the guy and he's good as an emotionless person but he scares me when he smiles lol. Nonetheless, this drama was good enough to make me cry. But I won't give it a high rating. It wasn't my cup of tea.
