Yes you're right, I couldn't agree more...
For me, when it comes to a movie or a drama that I will going to watch, I can't help but put a bar or an un existing standard (whether I like it or not) in which it has to met, for me to continue watching it. Thats also one of the reasons why there's barely Cdrama that I finished watching till now.
"The best of you in my mind"
Honestly I didn't get too excited when I came to know that Yiren has a new drama after she film Ever Night season 2, i was too afraid that I wouldn't like her new drama with an unfamiliar actor to me. But when I watch it's trailers and some fan made videos, I came to decide that I will give it a try. At first episode I was not that interested, but I'm not disappointed either, so I continue to watched the drama. Until it got my curiosity and later on my attention.
The story doesn't just focus on how the love of two main characters bloom through out the drama, it also highlights the different story of acceptance, forgiveness, understanding and believing in one self. That we rarely see in a movie or drama.
And when it comes to Acting, on how the character portrait by the actor/actress in this drama, I would say they did good. Though there's some lacking but I love how each one of them specifically the two main lead carry out or bring to life Lin Xi chi and Xu fang,from the beginning to end. The way how they show their emotions, how they fight, how they face their problems and struggles alone, and how Xu fang care for her. It got me hook that I didn't even notice I already reached the last episode.
I love the Ost, all of it specially sang by Yiren and Gala. Though I don't understand any of its lyrics, but it suits the drama so well.
Over all I would give it 8 out 10, and when someone asks me if I would watch it again, I would say Yes. Why not? It's so rare to see a beautiful drama like this that you would not need to cringe at any moment 😂😂...
That's all I would like to say, thank you.
