Flawed suspense
After seeing many raving reviews and positive comments I started watching this drama. It is the first Chinese crime series I have watched as I watch Chinese dramas usually for its fluffy romance. I have watched quite some Korean crime series as which are usually of good production quality.
I have to say I really enjoyed watching the first half of the drama. Overall the story is greatly written and makes me anticipate for the next episode. The romance between the leads is also more of a focus in the first half and a good built up towards the crime story. However, after the first half I began to find so much plotholes mainly around Bo Jin Yan's trauma/abduction which they didn't even explain much context around.
One major recurring annoyment is the fact that they included American actors that spoke in English to which the Chinese actors replied to in Chinese without some kind of translator involved it somehow had to make sense that American people all understand Chinese???? To me the drama is a flawed suspense. It was quite good in creating these interesting cases and build up towards the greater story but there were too many things unexplained.
I do have to give it up to Wallace Huo! He did an amazing job at playing the main character. He solely saved this drama for me. Sandra Ma as Jian Yao also did quite well even though she played a translating student who could't even speak english.
