Essbee’s Opinion

95% Even with the weirdest beginning, it was one of my favourite drama.

At first, I wanted to watch this drama because of its high ratings. The first time I watched it, I didn’t like it. The dream of Tianyu is so weird that I wanted to abandon it. Also, I didn’t know the actors and I didn’t really like them in the pictures. However, I continued it. Now, what do I have to say? The actors AND the acting was magnificent.

I didn’t know Joe Chen and Ming Dao, but more the story was progressing, more I loved them. Now, I think that Joe Chen is a goddess in acting and Ming Dao an almost a legend… before Ethan Ruan surpassed him… LOL.

As for Sam Wong, even now, I don’t have a specific opinion about him. He was just to in love with the other girl and I didn’t feel any… compassion, hatred… NONE. I guess the protagonist were number 1 all the way. Actually, maybe not. I didn’t like the fiancée of Junhao. Well, I guess that it’s normal. However, when she’s not the “evil” woman, I think she’s really pretty.

The music was superb. 183 Club and 7 Flowers worked once again together for many songs. I really like them. The humour was also good…very funny. Also, this drama might sound long, but I’m telling you. It is not! So, even though it’s second in the ratings now, friendly advice: watch it!
