Free time? Here's an okay watch.
Yes, we are well aware that the past HIStories were done better with a more solid cast and plot, but contrary to popular belief, HIStory5 was not that bad, it just seemingly lacked some thorough planning.
With the plot, I saw what the writers were going for, but I don't think that it was achieved--it sorta got lost midway. Yes, the goal was there in the back of our minds, but I don't think that it was as clear as it could've been. Many other elements could've affected this as well, which if you do decide to give it a watch you'll understand what I'm alluding to, but it was still easy to follow.
The main couple did not draw me in at all, it felt forced almost and it just didn't sit well with my spirit at the beginning. As the show went on though, I did see the improvements with the characters and can appreciate them. Some more work could've been done to their personalities and other things, but I do like how they portrayed the adjusting of Bo Wei to Johnny Dai. It felt very realistic and as annoying as it may have been in the beginning, the development was essential to the plot. The second couple however is the main reason as to why I stuck around. I absolutely loved the young shy new worker and the managing director trope and it was executed beautifully. It really highlights how difficult it can be with age differences, work harassment, jealousy and how important clear communication is. The full reveal towards the end was great and the heartwarming discovery for Wynn was such a lovely thing to watch. The actors did their thing in this regard--kudos!
The music was pretty good, zero complaints there. The theme song right up to the piano excerpts played/used. A huge thumbs up to the person who chose those pieces--excellent. They fit perfectly with the themes of that relationship and the personalities as well.
Morale, it isn't a show that I think you should go in having high standards for, but if you just want something that is a fairly easy watch, can help you pass time, not too boring and has some nice piano pieces, I say go for it.
