A wild ride!
This show is interesting and entertaining. It is really two shows. I wanted a light romantic comedy, and this fulfilled that, for the first half of the show. The second half of the show is a melodrama that I wasn't expecting, but that I enjoyed. Both parts are entertaining and enjoyable, but in very different ways. It is an odd shift in the show.
The best part of the show for me was Aaron Yan. I have never watched him before, but he is amazing! I believed him when he was arrogant, tender, happy, and gut-wrenchingly vulnerable. I really felt his angst. Although I loved him most as Xiau Lu, his angst was so amazing to watch when he was Lu Tian Xing. Such a great actor to pull of both parts so brilliantly.
As for the worst part of the show, I think that it dragged on a bit too long. I found myself fast-forwarding through some parts (I mean how many slow walks to dramatic music do you really need?) and the last few episodes that didn't concentrate on the romance were a bit long. But, overall, I enjoyed the ride!
One more comment is that I read in other reviews that the reveal wasn't handled well, and I'm not sure why. I thought the reveal was entertaining. If you are looking for a cute male chases female that turn into an angsty melodrama, this one is for you!
