Really nice, and the plot twist was great.
BACKGROUND INFO
The male lead (Ling Yue) is an adopted child of the Ling family, and runs the technology business "New Way". The female lead (Gu Anxin) is a girl who loves comic making and works as a delivery person. Ling Yue is being sabotaged while driving, and drives off a cliff into the water. News is reported, and no one has found his body because Gu Anxin met Ling Yue and helped him get to the hospital. Ling Yue lost his memory and hurt his leg, so Gu Anxin let him live in her house until his memory recovered. One day, Ling Yue suddenly leaves, and him and Gu Anxin meet again at a convocation. Gu Anxin is perplexed and learns a lot about Ling Yue. But on the same day, Gu Anxin meets Yu Guo, a whom she knew since high school. They had misunderstandings between them because of competition and an accident involving Gu Anxin that caused Yu Guo to have an almost handicapped arm. Gu Anxin and Ling Yue face many obstacles in terms of relationship. Family situations are complex, and the truth is to be revealed.
STORY------------------------------------------------------------
I loved this drama a lot. The story was really interesting, and cute. I think the backstories of the leads were thought out very well. It really made it seem like they were meant for each other. Another great thing, is that the female support (Gu Xin Er) who loves the male lead actually finds someone else she loves. That is usually rare in dramas, and I appreciate that happened. After all, the female support didn't really harm their relationship. But I do have to criticize the fact that I felt sort of hidden from some things. For example, during episode 7, Yu Guo shows up and has this hatred towards the female lead. It wasn't until the end that I fully understood what happened to Yu Guo and the female lead. Also, I was confused as to whether the female lead and her brother were blood related. Another thing I want to mention is that they sort of have a split up then back together cycle in the beginning. I'm not sure if that is a good or bad thing, because it was a little annoying, but the split ups are really small so it wasn't because the female or male lead assumes and overreacts. The plot twist was literally the best part. I was really shocked though, because this person was so innocent in love and it was truly unexpected. At the same time it was unfortunate for this person too. In the end, the female support and the female lead become friends. There are other relationships too. The FM's (female lead) best friend fell in love, and the ML's bodyguard fell in love with one of the ML's best friends. I seriously loved the story until the end though. I felt this drama had so much more potential for an excellent ending. The some of the people who did things wrong didn't get more severe punishments, and there was no finish. The second half felt very messy and wasn't excellent. Story was average.
ACTING/CAST-------------------------------------------------
I was more so here for Zhao Lusi, but Liu Te is great too! They make a perfect leading couple, and acting was awesome. I do think there were a few cringy parts, but for the most part it was nice. I want to emphasize that the female lead character was really good. Of course there will be times where people try to separate the leads, but I am glad the female lead won't be easily deceived by any news trying to break their relationship.
MUSIC------------------------------------------------------------
Music was amazing, I nearly memorized all the song lyrics! But there was a song that was in the drama which I couldn't find in the full OST. Definitely one of the dramas with better songs.
REWATCH VALUE----------------------------------------------
Like I mentioned earlier, the first part of the drama was sort of a repetition of a small split up and back together, which was sort of annoying. I would at most watch the last half of the drama, since I think the last half has more action and is more interesting. I am not a person that would rewatch dramas, so it really depends on how much you like it and if you want to move on to other stuff.
OVERALL---------------------------------------------------------
Good drama. I would recommend to people who are more open when it comes to choices. For me, this drama was very lighthearted, and didn't catch my emotions a whole lot. I was a little disappointed since I really thought this drama had so much potential for a great ending. But it's definitely not at the bottom of my list.
