Personally one of my faves for the year 2023
First let me start off saying that I am writing this review a day after I have completed this series (11/11). Alright! Here's the thing- I really, REALLY liked this series. However, I'm not going to try to convince people who don't like it to like it. I understand why they don't like it. And those are exactly the same reasons on why I do like it.
Story-9/10
I love this story so much! How it started with the cranky boss and the kind hearted secretary. And the it just turned into an excellent cat and mouse chase between the MC's.
And okay- yes it had a pet peeve that I absolutely ABHOR in series (miscommunication). But, I don't know, I felt that it was dealt with good in this series. Like, because how Xia Shang Zhou was raised, he just wasn't able to express himself properly to Yao Shun Yu (I mean he was comparing to get Yao to like/ date him as if he was taking over a company!) I am glad that they were able to clear up this misunderstanding between them and was able to get together in the end.
Now, why did I chose to give it a 9 instead of a 10? Because the mother basically came out of nowhere and just slapping my poor little Yao! And what got to me is the fact that Xia's mother basically knows nothing about him! How the heck you don't know that your own son gets bad headaches and can't et certain types of food! And forcing im on dayes that he clearly does not want to be on because he uses his secretaries to act as his significant other just not to date them. What kind of mother are you!
Acting/Cast-9.5/10
I loved the majority of the acting (the mother part still does not sit right with me!) From the interactions between the two male leads, to the other secretaries and even to the VP. They were all a joy to watch over these past few weeks. That's why I give a 9.5.
Music-10/10
Music is a 10/10 and ain't anybody going to change my mind about it!
Rewatch Valu-8.5/10
While I do like this series, I don't see myself watching it immediately, due to scenes that I must say did annoy me a bit. But I will say that there will be times where I will watch certain parts and smile uncontrollably. So, for that, I will give an 8.5.
Overall-9.5/10
Overall, I give this series a 9.5/10. I really did enjoy it and I do know that it really isn't for everyone. I'm gonna miss this series so much!
