Slow burning Romantic Drama
I like this Drama, but it is slow to develop. Again the Chinese Writers and Produces did the typical thing, gave the FL an appearance as a mindless, mumbling, low esteem and an enabler female. The ML is a cold, emotionalist male. The supporting cast seems to be more in-depth than the ML and FL.
Gu Xiao Man, though strong physically, she is weak mindless. She can stand up to everyone but Zuo An. Every time they meet she mumbles, allows him to yank around. She is obsessed with him and will follow him anywhere and do anything for him. Zuo An is a emotionalist all about him succeeding and he don't care about anyone else (his father made him that way). Some of the attics they pull on the way to love, is straight up funny.
The interactions of the female roomies are precious. A person can see how a person can be. It is heart breaking when did an evil thing to Gu Xiao Man. Some folks need to get out of the way and let it happen.
Must say something about the scenery: The College looks great. Filming around town gives a person look at a modern city hustle and bustle it brings. (Yes, I know they clean it up for the filming) It's nice to see young people hang out just like everyone else in the world. The beaches look fantastic.
32 episodes is too long for this Series. It should of been like this:
1-2 - develop characters
3-5 -Primary School years
6-10 - College years
11-15 - tie up loose end (ie. Marriage, Professional jobs)
I felt that they drugged the Series out to far. The Storyline could of been told in 15-20 Episodes. There are some good Episodes and then there are some that make you wonder why it was there. Of all the Episodes 32 was the best. The emotions were so visible.
