Always a complex drama. I think it will take awhile before all our puzzle pieces start coming together. Now that we are adding Pie’s parents into the mix, things are just getting more complicated…oh and let’s not forget that Kirin (remember he’s Pie’s bestie) is taking a shine to Momoko (who has a crush on Sora after watching over him

Oh, this drama. It had its good moments and it had its bad moments and it had those lovely in-between mediocre moments. Overall as I have finished this series, I don’t hate it. It’s one of those dramas which leave a person with that slightly dissatisfied feeling—especially since you don’t know if there will be a season two coming down

The stern perfectionist Ji Bai has a softer teasing side. Who knew? I like that Ji Bai. The only problem with it is that it seems to come too fast without a natural progression. He was all anti-Xu Xu and them BOOM! Although, he does explain his change of heart to Zhao Han, it’s still…sudden. And who knew that Xu

We get to start near the end of the episode and then rewind back to where episode two left off. While I do get what Ji Bai is trying to do with Xu Xu, I think that the girl does deserve some credit for what she accomplished with only half the facts that Ji Bai had. And…you have to give
