There is nothing inherently special about Art In Love that i have not seen in other Chinese dramas before. Here To Heart, Memories Of Love, My Sunshine, and Where The Lost Ones Go all have the same premise: the leads fall in love but for one reason or another one of them has to go away and ends up hurting the other, time passes, they meet again and butt heads. Art in Love also doesn't seem to know where to put its focus, there was too many conflicts and resolutions that it ended up becoming a little draggy, it felt unnecessary and it could have been better if they picked a few of them and explored them a little more.
What I enjoyed most, however, was that the female lead, Li Chen Yin grew from college to adulthood. In college she was naive and overly bubbly who would only put her foot down occasionally, but in her adulthood she was more mature and stood her ground more often. I think that actress Adi Kan did this really well.

I think that the lead actors did a good job. In many Chinese dramas i find that they rely mostly in telling the audience what the characters are feeling rather than showing us, but in Art In Love,on many occasions, they focused on the expressions of the main characters rather than having them say something and i think that those expressions conveyed the feeling better than be told about them. George Hu's micro expressions are amazing, by the way. And Adi Kan did a really good job as well.

I didn't take too much notice of the music but i know that George Hu sang at least one of them and i loved it.
