really annoying (sorry vengo)

edit: i made it 14 episodes in and i can’t do it anymore lol, i sensed myself starting to hate watch the show because i was seething with frustration at the mc. how can an mc be twenty nine whole years old and make such stupid, selfish decisions? i hear that rulu is a good actress so i’m gonna blame the direction for this. i found rulu’s portrayal of xiong dun utterly ingratiating. most of all it was her lying lmao. i know it was supposed to make her seem sympathetic but i felt no sympathy for seeing her actually hurt and endanger people around her. her voice was hard on the ears too?? i know she was supposed to sound cute and outgoing but she sounded like a woman in her mid thirties oncoming forties trying to sound like a baby. idk. gao weiguang i love the man but phew his presence wasn’t enough to save this shit. i really hope i can enjoy rulu jiang in another drama some day because this was really disappointing. not to mention her and viola mi’s styling was really unflattering here. i have no clue what these directors were thinking lmao. maybe i’ll return to finish watching for vengo but he’s the kind of actor that doesn’t carry a show as much as he depends on his costars and seeing as i hate everyone in the main cast that isn’t amy or xiong dun’s parents it’s not happening lol. the supporting stories, subplots, and cast are great though. it makes up for how unwatchable everything else is.

original review:

i think i’m not a big fan of viola mi or rulu jiang… the way they were styled in this drama was unflattering to say the least, and while i liked the character concept of xiong dun, i don’t really like her character? i always find myself more drawn to the characters around her—dr lin, aimi, her parents, the patients she befriends, etc. many ppl have commended rulu’s acting here, so maybe you’ll enjoy it. i personally didn’t, and the way they’ve styled her makes her already hard to watch. viola’s character xia meng has been a lot of shades of dislikable so far too, though i guess that’s on purpose.

gao weiguang is nice as usual. his short hair here makes him seem a little strange?? but you know, he has a nice face. those turtlenecks make him look a lot older and also cozy lol. and i love aimi’s actress and character so much i almost wish she was the main character. aimi and xiong dun are so close they’ve even made jokes about how they would marry each other if one of them were a man. to which i have to say, well why don’t you guys just get together regardless lol, it’s more realistic than being terminally ill and getting with your doctor. that’s another thing. i’m not sure how much of this is completely true seeing as it was based on xiong dun’s real life but it seems fairly disrespectful to sneak in such a weirdly unbalanced romantic plotline. what would the real xiong dun herself think?? it’s so weird!

there are a lot of other things in the show that i enjoy though. sub plots about sketchy doctors, about choosing love over all else including the pressures of work, the selfishness of children who don’t want to care for their parents but also the selflessness that many people are also capable of when seeing their loved ones are sick. it’s very much a touching show when it elaborates on these points. i’m looking forward to more of these side stories as i watch.
