It's an OK drama
This drama started very good for me but started declining as the episodes went. The chemistry of the 2 mains is very good but the slow burn was not done very well and the episode length did them no favor, during every single episode when i started to get engaged and think things were going to happen the episode ended and the next one we were again back two steps behind.
Also contrary to most people I actually did not like the side couple until episode 8; they were not adding or doing anything to the drama, they were just there, and i feel like they were being used as a device to make people stay while the main couple did not get together, which is a sign things are not going to do so well. The third couple was also just there and basically disappeared towards the later half, their purpose was only to give advice to the main guy.
Now for things I did like about this: the character evolution and how Jin Yuzhen's issues dont simply go away once he falls in love again, that was handled fairly well, and I was pleased that them being gay was never the problem during the whole drama, but an entirely different thing. Also as I said in the beginning the main characters's work very well and the actors's chemistry is very nice.
The osts are good too! Sometimes they got a bit repetitive since there are only 4 of them, but that didnt take anything of my enjoyment and im definitely saving one to my playlist.
Overall its an OK drama, wont be anything world changing but its nice to watch once if you have free time.
