This is my first China drama....wasn't sure what to expect but thought it would be quite old-fashioned and dated.....but, I was pleasantly surprised. All members of the cast did a good job - especially the main cast, I really felt drawn in to the main couple while I also loved the supporting cast too. The story developed at a good pace and there was never a dull moment. The plot kept me interested and wanting to know what would happen next, and showed the typical Chinese culture and politics, the 'guanxi' that still exists today in China. There was no adult theme or shots while the love stories blossomed naturally and the story ripened over the episodes. I would recommend this drama - I finished the 25 episodes quickly!
