A wonderful ride.

This drama made me feel lots of emotions, from frustration, to anger, to sadness, to joy, and mushy-mushy. Their journey was long and there is twists and hardships almost at every turn but they've survived it all together. I've come to like this drama exactly because of that and the fact that the leads understand each other, won't let go of the other, and the misunderstandings doesn't last long. It is a comical ride that will make you cry, a bitter-sweet yet satisfying story for everyone.

Yan Hui's actress (Zhou Ye?) really did a good job. I can't help but praise her every time there's a scene where she breaksdown. Chemistry-wise, there is no problem they pulled it off very well. The parts I'd like to point out tho are some character's awkward movements and some scenes where Hou Minghao who played Tian Yao looks "constipated" as how the other reviewer put it. He definitely can improve more in his future projects not to mention that he already has an advantage to the viewers cuz he really looks good and those still photos? It made me ask "was he that handsome in the drama?" deym. Another character and actress I liked is Suying. She makes a more well-motivated villain, an awfully strong, beautiful, desperate, and sad character, than the lord of dark aura.

OSTs didn't hit me as hard as other cdrama did for me, it really makes an impact for me :< I've read this is a low budget film so I guess the choppy cuts, and CGI is understandable. The edit and visual effects were amazing and eye-pleasing.

It was good but I don't think I will rewatch this. A lot happened and this ain't some short drama so yeah.
