Story?
Okay. Mainly the story was cliche and predictable. It had its cute moments and even a few touching ones. But in all honesty. I spent a majority of this drama feeling frustrated. The episodes were quite long, and a lot would happen in each, at times I'd finish an episode and it would feel like I'd finished 2 or 3. A new and different event would be in each making the drama feel longer then it is.
The love triangle is again, quite cliche. At times I would have second lead syndrome - after about episode 7 - despite at first hating him. The drama seems to be focusing on gaining sympathy for the characters and their complicated relationships. Despite this, it was cute too watch, even if I felt like throwing it out the window.
The last few episodes are a little... random. That's all I have to say about the end.
Actors/Characters?
I thought that the actors were quite good at their roles, I haven't really seen them in other dramas - of which I can remember - so I feel like I can't be an excellent judge for this one. So instead I shall talk about the main characters themselves. Many of the characters did get me to the verge of throwing soft items such as; pillows, teddies and bricks at the screen. But the actors had captured their essence quite well.
Tao Hua - The character Tao Hua was so indecisive! I know that she loved her brothers dearly and that she wanted them to be happy, but couldn't she stand up for herself for once near the beginning?! Okay sure. It would cut the drama shirt by about 10 episodes but UGH it frustrated me. Otherwise she's a sweet character, and when it comes to the heart she was sincere.
I like her brothers, despite them being cruel and manipulative at times, they are doing what they think is best. They are unselfish in all matters towards their sister, which I thought was very cute. If they'd have bullied Yu Yi less I may have even fallen for them.
Yu Yi - Yu Yi himself was a sweet addition to the brothers. He was the glue of the family - sticking them all together. Despite being bullied constantly by his evil brothers, he would try and rectify their mistakes. He would comfort Tao Hua, and always thought of her feelings, instead of keeping her safe life her other brothers. Due to his brothers bullying he had a hard time standing up for himself, but when the time came, he would finally pluck up the courage and do it. I personally feel like he was the most attractive brother for this reason alone, despite not being the most physically attractive out of them all. He was cute. Definitely earned the title of Favourite Brother!
Shi Lang - For a supposedly clever character, he could be really dumb at times. I can't explain this with out adding spoilers... Okay I'll give a quick example. It won't ruin the story, but skip to the next point if you're worried. Ready? If a girl beats you in a sport.. WHY ARE YOU WORRIED SHE WON'T BE ABLE TO DO SAID SPORT?!? Christ almighty.
Other then that he had his moments. The two leads made a cute couple ^^
Music?
Cute and quirky is all I could say about it. I find myself often singing along the the opening theme tune, it's catchy.
Overall?
Although frustrating at times, coupled with the fact it's a classic, cliche from drama land, it is a sweet relief from real life. If you're looking for something sweet and easy to watch, this would be a good recommendation, just don't expect a great deal from it. It's cute enough to pass time with, but I doubt I'll watch it again, it frustrated me way too much! :)
