Even with that nitirious ban this was a really great show!

Casting was perfect, leading actors are just wow! I m surprised that they are not superstars already, cuz they are better looking than 90 % of other chinese actors i ve seen. And the girls were also good looking and with great acting skills.

Production was much better than expected, for me even better than some mainstream dramas from China, with that creepy polished voices and stuff.

The story was fun to watch, without the ban would be perfect. For me the biggest problem was the ending. Unneccessary problem and situation, totally not for an ending. I was expecting their coming out to sister or mother, not this. From this story Beijing would be burnt down if firefoghters were this slow, but somehow even guys from company from another part of town were able to come. And the guy XY saved looked old, so that cartoon part was a bit..wtf. And the toes thing. Like...whaaat? I expected some romance :(

Not (an)other drama - but a masterpiece

This will be my first review, something I thought I will never do. But I am just so impressed that I need to share my experience of this show.

First of all this is the first drama recently that I was able to connect to - it is super relatable.

Characters are not some crazy chaebols or unique geniuses, but your next door neighbor type of people. With their highs and lows. People with struggles, but still pushing through life.

The show was EXTREMELY FUNNY, but not cringey like some sitcoms tend to be. It was romantic, but no one lost their identity or themselves due to it. It was thrilling and suspenseful, but it wasn’t dark or depressing. It was just a perfect amount of everything you need to stay focused and involved with the narrative.

It is an ode to women and mothers. How to respect and love yourself first as only then we can share it with others. By loving ourselves we will know our strengths that will help us push further in life.

Also it got me thinking about my mom so often and it made me so grateful! We should never forget who loves us the most. And it had an amazing message as it has pointed out that there are BOTH biological and chosen mothers. It is not only about the blood we share, but it is about the love we receive and give back. Just beautiful!

Show was progressive! It tackled some basic things we do or feel in our everyday lives, but TV makes it almost like a taboo. Single parents, s*x, hygienic “topics”, same sex relationships and free speech.

Please disregard people saying it was “too much”, as it wasn’t. They have never - ever crossed the line of good taste. It can be only too much for people who come from censored countries and social backgrounds.

All in all, it is one of the most thoughtful and comprehensive stories with well developed characters. It is a healing show as not even a single episode ends with a negative feeling or bad energy. So please give yourself a break during a weekend and take a look, it is well worth it!
