Crazy Ending

Generally, I think this drama was done extremely well. The acting especially was phenomenal and I'll definitely be watching more dramas with these actors.

The characters were my favourite aspect of this drama. I loved how all the female characters weren't painted as damsels in distress that couldn't do anything. They were smart and often helped the situation instead of making it worse, and two of the female characters had redemption arcs that were handled really well. I also liked the main couple both together and separately and thought the main second lead couple were done really well in which they were interesting and cute enough to be invested in but not interesting to the point where they would drive the plot if they were the leads.

The plot likewise was pretty good, but this is also the part where I have the most problems with. At the end where Rong'er is presumed dead or unconscious, why did they make her come back to life by getting struck by lightning? I feel like this came out of nowhere and completely threw off the tone of the drama, and therefore I was unable to rate it a 9 like I had originally planned.
