For those looking for a light drama
If you’re looking for something not overly dramatic and full of conflicts, this is for you. In fact, it’s full of fluff you might get sick of it. It’s not the cheesy kind of fluff, don’t worry, but it’s nothing extraordinary either. Yes there is the usual disapproving boyfriend’s mom but it’s not overly annoying, It’s weird even because it’s the second lead that has an obnoxious nemesis. I just wish Yi Wan and Zhao Quan had more scenes together. They’re an eye candy, far more good looking than the main leads. They’re love story could have been explored more. I like Viola Mi, I think she’s a very good actress, I hope she gets a big break soon and gets the recognition she deserves. In some dramas, you wish there were less side stories and more main leads’ story, but this is the opposite for me. Even the love story of Michael and Xiao Jing was cute.
One question that keeps popping though, why wasn’t the female lead not able to see her son sooner? I dunno if I just missed it, but I found that weird. The son topic just got lost in all the fluff. I mean, it has been said too many times that the female lead was doing all these for her son but wouldn’t even the occasional phone calls to her son suffice? She wasn’t even that hostile to her ex-husband, plus, it was the ex-husband who cheated on her, so the least he could do is let their son see her mother more. I don’t know about China’s justice system, but where I come from, it’s usually the mother who gets custody. Much more if the cause of divorce was due to the father’s fault. But given that the mom here was jobless and the father is rich, I get that the father got custody of the kid, but still, the mother should have been given visitation rights at the very least.
But anyways, so that’s that. If you want a light drama, here it is.
