Loved it!

It did not take long for me to get into the show and fall in love with the main leads. Usually, it takes at least 10 episodes for me to start falling for a chinese drama, but with this one, it was immediate. I patiently waited for this drama to air, and I'm glad that it did not disappoint. I was actually a bit hesitant to start this one after reading some reviews saying that it was not able to measure up to the expectation (considering its director and the casts). I'm definitely glad that I did not listen and decided to give this drama a chance because I genuinely enjoyed it as a whole.

I find the chemistry between the leads strong very early on. The drama was able to set up a strong ground for love to blossom between the leads. It did not feel rushed for me. The male lead's coldness is justifiable. I can understand where he's coming from-- why he has to act as if he does not care about the girl and push her away at some point. He has to go that extra length to protect her. It's kind of a common formula for dramas but I don't mind it because it was executed well.

Some say this is very similar to Ashes of Love in many ways. And personally, although I have watched Ashes of Love about a year ago, I remember little to nothing about it. So, the similarities does not affect me at all.

I truly enjoyed this drama and would recommend it for everyone.
