This review may contain spoilers
Waste of time. Inconsistent character development. Immature FL. What a fake doctor the ML is!
1) Story
Apart from the beginning of the story that the FL has to cope with her father's illness which leads to the meeting of ML and FL, after that since her father goes back home onward, there's nothing in the story at all.
-----------------------------------
2) Character
The FL starts from being rational and strong to a very immature, pretentious person. Her head was clear, her character was cool, but then after going out with the ML, she starts to be irrationally clingy. She wants her time with the ML despite knowing he's busy with his work. The ML puts her as his priority but she's still upset with him because he still has to do his job after staying with her!?! She starts to be afraid of dark places. At one point, she also starts to be extremely afraid of the walking glass floor over an area of low bushes at a tourist place -- moreover, it's also her idea to go there. In the scene, there're other people but no one scares like her. The pathway isn't even high. Thus, the whole scene portrays the FL as a fake, pretentious girl who just wants her boyfriend's attention.
The FL's friend group is also her bad influence leading her from normal to be a jealous, seeking-attention, never-has-enough girlfriend. No one is interesting as a person in the group. They're ignorant, shallow people, esp. her bestie.
-----------------------------------
3) Acting
Xiao Zhan can't act at all in this series. All the moves are extremely stiff and awkward. All the love scenes are goosebumpy and cheesy. I wonder if he ever had a girlfriend before. My gosh... his acting is beyond imaginary bad.
By the way, the FL can't play cello. The promotion teaser tries to show the story about a cellist, but there's almost no scene about playing music at all.
-----------------------------------
4) There're other weird details along the way, but let me accumulate just some of them here:
4.1 The ML is the kind of doctor that is going to do surgery on a cancer patient without telling the patient he has cancer. The patient's family plans with the doctor to keep the illness secret from the patient even though there's no problem with the patient's consciousness. What - The - Hell ??? This is considered medical malpractice. It's not only immoral but also illegal. The patient has the right to his own body. Before the surgery, the patient still has to sign the informed consent document that states his illness as well as the risk of surgery. How is a doctor going to hide this information from the patient? How is this realistic? How could this series show the ML is a good doctor while he doesn't even know the basic procedure of being professional in his own profession?
4.2 The ML wants to distract FL from practicing cello as her wrist's tendon inflames by asking her to sort a file of 100 apartments' information on the computer. Is this the solution of a supposedly top-tier doctor for someone to rest their wrist? Using the mouse is another cause of carpal tunnel/wrist pain. It's a basic knowledge that would bear in all doctors' minds but not this ML...
4.3 What a super awkward scene in ep.6 when the FL tells her dad after arguing with him that she would go to the restroom then rushes out of the room but stops right at the outside of the glass door crying. They also have a glass wall there, so her dad or anyone can see her from the inside. What is the point in making the excuse of going to the restroom then? Then the ML follows the FL out instantly. He tries to console the FL and ends up kind of forcing the FL into his embrace. Not to say how awkward and unnatural he slowly and unconfidently pulls the FL closer. It's too slow it becomes awkward. The time interval is too long for the FL to act surprised naturally, but she still acts surprised which is so pretentious. This whole process bears to the FL's father's eyes who is sitting at the other side of the glass wall. It's so clear the ML has some ulterior motive kind of feelings for the FL from the gesture of this hug, but the father doesn't have any reaction about his daughter being hugged by a guy before his eyes at all - not even a blink of surprise. How realistic.
