Thoughts
Heart-wrenching. Passionate. Beautiful.
The chemistry was just spectacular. Those two had the ability to play with my heart like it was a piano. And the melody that came out of it was beautiful. I did not finish this one because I found out about the ending when I was halfway through, and since I was too involved and connected to the drama, I dropped it to save my heart. Wimp.
Oh, well, it was good while it lasted. This is a drama I definitely recommend if you can handle sad endings. The cast is spectacular, memorable, and gripping. There are many episodes, so it will take you a while to finish it.
Rants?
The ending was stupid. It did not match with the female lead's personality. Feng Zhi Wei was such a strong woman, who stood for what she believed in, and had a thirst for life. She was a person who did not give up. So how they then chopped her into pieces in the last episode was eye-rolling. Makes me mad when I think about it.
Would I watch it again?
Didn't even finish.
