This drama was actually recommended to me by a friend because she used to be a huge fan of Yang Yang so I decided to give it a go. The story is different and unique compared to other dramas that often follow a certain formula (boy meets girl, boy is rich, they don’t get along at first then fall in love but boy’s family is the cockblock etc). It was nice that there was no hateful mum and all that usual jazz.

Yang Yang’s acting was quite robotic and it was a bit boring to watch at times because he is actually so funny and full of emotion but he’s been reduced to a guy who mainly says “mm” or grunts as a response when people ask him questions. Perhaps that’s how his character is, y’know that mysterious and handsome guy who manages to make girls swoon without doing anything but I’m sure he’d still be able to manage a proper response rather than just a grunt. What I did like about his character was how determined and loyal he was even when people were trashing Weiwei. Another major plus was that the boy can kiss! Had no problems with his acting there.

As for Weiwei, I couldn’t stand her. She was a really interesting character initially and was presented as an intelligent woman who could take care of herself but as the drama progressed, she became so damn useless and boring. She is supposedly the department belle because she’s got the looks and the brains but towards the final arc of the drama, she did nothing to help and became the maid basically. What on earth happened there? They made her fall into that stereotypical role of a woman that is there to clean and provide food and run errands while the men solved the problem. Also, what is up with Zheng Shuang’s acting?? She can only manage the same repetitive expressions and during their kiss scenes, I have never deflated so quickly before. He’s great but she stands there like a wall. Lips not moving and I’m quite sure she actually frowned or had a look of horror during their first kiss. I dunno why the director didn’t tell her to step it up because he was basically team carry out of the two of them. Honestly, Dilreba would’ve suited the role way better.

Supporting cast was great though! Xiaonai’s roommates were hilarious, especially Banshan. Would’ve liked to see a bit more development between Haomei and KO because they brought that up and then that was it. Yiran might as well have been written out of the drama because she did absolutely nothing and I have never seen a character as annoying as Erxi. Couldn’t stand the chick because all she knew how to do was yell, act like a dumbass and was such a glutton.

Overall, the drama was ok. Not sure if I’d rewatch it because it frustrated me towards the end and Weiwei became useless.
