The Perfect C-Drama from beginning to end

Overall, the story line is great. It had a good pace - keeping us wanting more at the end of each episode. The relationship build up was also so exhilirating and did not create any unneccessary love triangle - all were necessary for their character build up. Absolutely loved this c-drama.

I am not sure why others commented that the ending sucks, or that they don't understand why they had a divorce. I think the last 3-4 episode explained it very well, multiple times why they divorced. Thankfully, I did not read those and give up on the series.

I think the character build up was great, the rivalry and frustration, as well as the swoonworthy moments. The only couple I thought wasted my time (while somewhat necessary), was the FL's 2nd elder brother and her best friend. Their relationship was necessary because it demonstrated the toxic nature of the relationship that scared the FL from getting married.

Another thing I really don't understand is why ML looks so tired and worn out in this entire series, when all he has is time (lol). The ML always looks impeccable in other c-dramas, so was a little curious why despite his best and lowest moments, he still look haggard.

So much potential

I don't know about you, but I hated the ending.

This drama is funny and cute, with the exception of the 2ndFL. It is not that she is outside the chinese drama beauty standards, but the fact her character became so far away from where she started off. As someone who is portrayed to have social anxiety, she did not seem to be like this towards the end, which is frustrating.

I am not sure why there were so many angst between the characters for silly situations, but the story between the ML and FL was very well developed. Which is why I hated the ending. I didn't understand why they wanted to trick the viewers to think they are getting married while packing the 囍糖 - Wedding candy, and decorating the office like a bridal shower. Then it was to celebrate the games' sales performance. I think it could have ended better with news articles suggesting it being the first 3A game ever to come out of China.

Also, I wish he was able to celebrate with his father's co-founders - I didnt understand why a super small cameo from the investor who was his father's co-founder. And also, his mother not even accepting that her son has achieved both his and his father's dream. Or at least indicating this outcome.

I did rewatch it for the romance, but the story line was not up to my standards.
