I had to write a review on this drama. I really, really loved it until the remaining few episodes. I was stuck on the last two episodes for weeks because I put it off due to the rushed, poor writing and directing.
The beginning and middle of the drama, I was so reeled in and very pleased by how it was going. Shuwei and Erduo’s relationship were developing and there were many cute and interesting moments revolving around those two along with the second leads. I was so up for it until a childhood “should’ve been me” character showed up. The writing then turned a bit tacky - putting a lot of emphasis on how they were born with two different worlds. It’s as if they bit off story plots from “Boys Over Flowers” and “The Heirs.”
Don’t get me started on the ending. It was just so, so unfulfilling for such a good middle build-up. I’m upset and furious at the directors AND the writers for such horrid camera work and lazy writing. The actors were great, however I wish they emoted more and ACTUALLY SPOKE JAPANESE for the parts that were supposed to be.
