Not heavy drama with lots of good characters who meet up, investigate & fight evil together...

The overall story is about 3 brothers n 1 lil sis who r from the martial art world that come to the normal world n got mixed up with worldly & government probs... they met their spouses during different probs&situations that occured throughout the drama... they also met other good people who eventually become their friends n with whom they fight the evil together...

I kinda like:
- The relationship between FL & her bros... they r somehow so different in characters n have various kinds of relationships... N talking about her brother, halfway thru LiHongYi was introduced as the 6th bro... i like him! I’ve watched some of his dramas n his character stood out in here eventhough only as a support role...
- The genre, it’s about investigating crimes... FL&ML’s jobs in the first half is about finding clues n investigate stuff... everything they investigate is actually things that lead to the conspiracy of villains between 2 nations...
- The people around ML&FL r all good people, there r no stabbing in the back kinda thing... the villains r just frontal kinda villains...
- The ending where everybody gathered, all the good casts r there looking happy...

Mixed feelings:
- The chems between the leads r just ok for me... maybe coz they describe FL as young, so their relationship is so subtle... but they r cute sometimes, they had their small moments I guess...
- The mainleads’ characters... FL is supposed to be smart n witty, n she is, but sometimes she acts so righteous n that annoys me quite a bit... ML is the typical coldhearted guy who got his heart melted becoz of FL... the downside of it, he is sometimes such a boring character... n how he faked his death to FL that she was heartbroken for a longtime just such an unnecessary thing to do, esp since they were already married... just the kinda plot I hate coz somehow the series needs a final drama for the leads...

I kinda dislike:
- The storytelling part is kinda boring... there r some parts in the drama that I find so flat that I had to skip scenes every once in a while...
- The 5th bro’s death... I guess we should be grateful that from all of the good casts, there is only 1 death... but still, it was a sad moment...
- It looks medium or even low budget... I guess it’s a standard webdrama, nothing special about the set, wardrobe or even the script n the directing... everything is just so so visually...
- Some scenes were cut I think? Coz sometimes we expect to see a certain scene, but suddenly they r already on the next scene... or is it just bad editing? I have no idea...

This is a drama u watch when u have nothing else... IMO it’s not that bad nor that good... if u r looking for romance only, I don’t recommend this, there r romance parts, but it doesn’t really focus on that n the skinship is very subtle... i enjoyed overall story, but there r so many boring parts that made me skipped some scenes... i think as long as u don’t expect much, u’ll like it more... like i said, it’s just another web drama, nothing extraordinary... but it’s not a heavy drama with lots of good characters throughout, n most of them got their happy endings, so there’s that...
