First of all, let me say that it wasn't the overall story or the cast that I had issues with. The acting was decent and the cast was easy on the eyes. Although, I have to say, what's with the styling that looks like it came straight from an 80's Pat Benetar music video? Or maybe the drama was actually trying to tell us that Love Really Is A Battlefield. I only had 2 real issues with this drama. The dad slapping Cheng Xiao Shi was one. Not acceptable. I realize this is a different country with different values, etc, but slapping is never okay - well, unless it's the lead female slapping the b*tch ex-girlfriend...I digress. Seriously, though, the scene made it seem like this was acceptable behavior, for a father to slap his GROWN daughter just because she stayed out late and worried her parents. And he didn't apologize, and she took it as an acceptable form of reprimand and groveled her apologies.....Nope. NOT OKAY. The second problem I had was He Qun's continuous verbal abuse towards the Cheng Xiao Shi. I don't care if it was supposed to be teasing, or that we were supposed to understand that their bickering was their way of expressing love...it was excessive. Teasing or not, calling someone stupid or an idiot ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME goes beyond playful bickering into verbal abuse territory. No matter how understanding a girl's personality is, eventually she's going to start wondering if he really means it. If it had just been once or twice in the beginning - that I could understand because their relationship wasn't on good terms. But later, once they were officially together, it grew old, fast. I couldn't even really enjoy the ending because their cute and/or sweet moments were just too few and far between compared to the bickering and putting down.
