This could have been a great non-tropey successful drama. However, the direction the writer took adversely affected the whole drama’s hit capability.

The Story:
The writer ruined a perfectly good story. It started interestingly well, with the two protagonists starting to fall in love while battling over who gets more sales. The female lead worked for one company and the male lead for the competing company.

They went to war with each other, meanwhile, they had sizzling romantic encounters. In the meantime, there were constant backstabbing, lies, and fierce competition between these two companies.

However, most of the drama was taken over by the business end of things, which was very hard to follow since it was written in a very choppy way. Lack of continuity, some scenes jumping from one to another without a meaningful transition.

Unless you like minutia business details dealing with technology, I would stay away from this drama.

The Acting/Cast:
The acting was fantastic by all the cast members.

Male lead Chen Kun was excellent in his role as Zhou Rui. His rugged handsomeness, his facial expressions, his voice, all in all, quite a package.
Female lead Xin Zhi Lei was equally as good. Her role as a beautiful but aggressive, highly competitive, vengeful type was almost too much to watch.

The Music:
The OST was wonderful. You can find the selections on YouTube.

Re-watch:
I, personally, would re-watch the last 3 episodes, 38-40 since those are the best.

All in all, I wish the writer could read the MDL’s reviews and the comments made. As a side remark, there were very few timed comments while I watched it on Viki.com. Was anyone watching?

Thank you for reading my review.
