Review:

I only watched it mainly because it had the ever so handsome Mike He HAHA :) and Ariel Lin from ISWAK. It wasn't that bad of a drama, just a bit confusing. I didn't really get their relationship at first, but it did make sense afterwards. I also find that the characters where some of the people in Tokyo Juliet that also starred Ariel Lin as the main protagonist. Mike He seemed younger in this drama, probably because he was. He didn't look that good looking as he was in Devil Beside You, but we will all live :P Mike He's character involving his mother and father was pretty sad once you get his full story. Also of how his mother was still trying to find his father after so long, made you feel sorry for his mother. It was so sad when she ran out because she thought it was his father, and then died because of her Asthma..Mike He and Ariel Lin also looked like a good couple together, but I still prefer the Ariel Lin and Joe Cheng couple :) What I found was the most confussing about this drama was the ending. It sucked. At first the ending appeared as if it was suicide, and next ending turned out it was all fake, and the third it when they actually did commit suicide but can back from heaven to meet their friends. I must say, the ending was really bad. If I were to choose an ending out of the three choices, probably the suicide one. Not because I wanted it that way, I just wanted it to be sad and more understandable. She was already bed bounded for life, and he was already heart broken, his reactions did look suicidal. I would recommend this drama, only if you are bored :P

Rating out of 10: ****** 1/2
