I watched this drama years ago. The story was weird at first, but as the characters developed, i got to see a thorough and elaborate story. The family is not functional, and so are the kids. The relationships are weird to begin with, but they grow up through the series.
I haven't watched many Taiwanese dramas as of today, but i dare say this one is a must-watch, despite it's age and somewhat mediocre production( which was ok for the time it aired).
Overall, a delicate yet entertaining drama.
