This drama remains in my heart as one of the best dramas I have ever watched, and my very first Chinese drama.
At first, I was hesitant, because I was used to Korean and Japanese dramas, so the language was a little startling to focus on, and I really didn't like the casting because I thought they looked quite ugly.
But I haven't currently found a drama like this since. There was definite chemistry and their relationship was built from the ground up instead of forcing insta-love. There were the usual cliche scenes but it worked to what it was trying to do with the story, so I didn't mind the cliches because I was too busy making googly eyes at the MC's relationship and their good acting.
The only reason I'm giving it a lower score is because it was unfinished due to China's censorship laws at the time of airing. The final episode ever shown on TV included quite a steamy kiss between the two men and upset a lot of people. The show was then canceled and suspended. It sucks because I know this would have been an amazing show.
