almost on par with LLTG
This review contains not only spoilers, but also huge ranting over the romance aspect of the show. I need to get it off my chest otherwise I wil combust. This couple has driven me insane. I am a really really picky viewer when it comes to chemistry - and they managed to nail it in every. single. way.
I almost dropped it during the first 3-4 EPs. Mystery/detective work/politics are not so much my cup of tea BUT the chemistry kept me going (+ the soundtracks also did). So glad I decided to continue. What a ride.. i laughed, cried, smiled, flipped the table, bit the couch and so on.
My most favorite part would be around EP4-5 until EP25. Yes - the slow burn. The perfect wonderful genuine top form slow burn. This is how it's done. I never went so this nuts since LLTG. Whoever is in charge of casting Yuxi and Enxi, i hope you are having a very very good day always.
The story is not flawless. Some editings are weird. Some plot lines dont make sense (or i might be too dumb to understand). Minor things here and there in this show might make me feel like hmm its not so good BUT once the soundtrack starts playing and the couple are on screen - nothing matters. This show is very good and they are so beautiful. They make me genuinely happy.
The supporting characters also have great effect on me. Esp Jing Lin.. my poor poor man. Bro wakes up and works hard every day. Madam Xu also works really hard while looking graceful and superior all the time. Idk why exactly did the 3rd couple have to die.. i got quite sad. Cant mention them all but each role really did a great job.
Yuxi and Enxi must reunite in a modern rom-com / melodrama / or just ANYTHING PLEASE. Do these two even know how much power they hold!?!
If you read until here, and you are a big fan of romance (esp slowburn), and you want a sign to start/continue this show, DO IT OTHERWISE YOU WILL REGRET. One of the best I've seen so far in terms of romance. I'll now end the review and go rewatch it.
ps. have i mentioned the 'its you, its always been you' trope? oohh its so well-executed. chef's kiss.
