I am fan of historical costume dramas but have heard lot about this so thought to give it a try.
and I found it quite interesting except a few point. First, let me tell you what I didn't like. Yangzi character and her acting, she is supposed to be brilliant in university but she behaves like a ten yr old, talks like that behaves like that. She can act cute and nice but I don't think she can do any complex role. yes, she can cry but NOT ANY COMPLEX EMOTIONAL role. She needs to change her stylist she dresses up all the time like 14 yr old at home. her roommate Ya ya had better dress, apple dog had better dresses than the main lead. He character is obsessed and stalker and instead of getting mad with her and report to police the male lead falls in love with her that was quite No NO. she has no passion in a romantic scene. there is no chemistry except jumping on him she cant portray anything else. when his BF whom she has been stalking and its she who has been asking him to go and get married but when he proposed she plays dumb, ( nineteen yr hmm)
Sorry I don't see any serious acting here
Long long flashbacks were quite boring they could have made just one flashback and finish off. Needed some editing here and there.
Now let's talk about good points there are many good things to enjoy this drama , cast is so perfect from main lead to the whole boy team all actors except that first manager of KK team all were suitable. You just fall in love with the boys and young KK team.
Li Xian is a v good actor he has portrayed his role v well from angry stubborn leader to caring boss and lover. His expression when Tong Nian's( Yang zi) mother tell him to stay away from his daughter, his interaction with all the boys of his team, the way when he cried in the tub with his friend Solo is the best scene. In fact, this drama is not a love story its about team, hard work and friendship. good to show to motivate people.
There are many cute moments and kissing scene here and there( with no passion mind you) oops M I too harsh.
I gave it 7.7 and 8 for the good story and acting of all the actors
and yes set sp KK office was nice, good interiors and colour.
