The story is quite like BOF, but very different. This drama was, well, quite a ride. I cried a few times, and I started laughing hysterically at some points. It has great funny moments and humor. Every single actor in this drama is extremely attractive, and with this being a drama with many idols in it (Sam/Liu Bing, Evan/Jiang Che), they were good actors.
Towards the end, there was quite a change in the mood and different feel to it. It starts out very innocent and fluffy, and while it does keep that tone throughout the series, but it grows to have much more action and it leads into a whole more thrill-type revenge plot, I would say. Not too much, though. Just enough where it has you on the edge of your seat as your watching it, "Whats gonna happen next?" There's much unnecessary drama, revenge, and lots of dramatic crying around the second half, but the drama is still really lovable.
If you were just here for the second male lead arc of the story, there isn't much of one. The second lead arc starts very, very late. It's also short. But, even the side characters are absolutely great. You'll most likely absolutely hate the rivals (Very frustrating and unreasonable), but some characters are just for comic relief, and they're all extremely lovable and unique. Most of the main characters have some sort of interesting link to each other, the 'Three Princes' having quite complicated relationships with some of what we could call 'antagonists' of the series.
The music, there's not too much to remember other than the opening song by SpeXial (Which Liu Bing and Jiang Che are in!), and the ending song by Pets Tseng, "Season of Rain". Seasons of Rain plays in the drama occasionally, and other than that, the OST is a bit forgettable.
My favorite part of this series was what we could call the unnecessary drama and revenge, even if some people don't enjoy that. The funny scenes were unforgettable, though. This drama is great, and it definitely deserves a 9/10 in my opinion. Even if you feel like stopping this drama, definitely try finishing it!
