I didn’t get the wow factor of this series but because my dad was watching it, I watched it with him. The only characters which has potential is Bob & Moon. Everyone was hyping on how good Angel was but I thought her acting was a bit over. I actually quite like villains and dislike goody-two shoes, but I could not stand the lack of character development of the villains. A villains can do very evil things and you would hate them to the core yet you will feel that he/she is a real human being and had reasons to justify their deeds. The villains here are just jerks for no good reason and betray their friends without hesitation. Jeannie and her male stars had no chemistry at all and I did not feel for their love relationships and betrayal at all. I only like Bob and Moon’s progressive relationship, they did not have a lot of screentime but you could see why he liked her and how he supported her.

I have seen a lot of series where the story is not told in chronological order or told in flashback and still turned out great (HKTV’s Election, that Korean Kingdom zombie series, etc.. )but this series has horrible storytelling. There are so many characters and subplots being thrown at us that does not add up and makes the story more confusing. You would have thought by ep 20 some loose ends would have been tied before the open ending, but the last ep is such a mess.

I seriously do not know how Patrick Kong feels this is comparable to “The Greed Of Man”‘s ending. Whether Vivian died or not was not that important because it was only a matter of time when she succumbed to her heart disease and that was the only open plot line in the story. Where as in this series there are at least twenty unanswered plot lines.

The acting is overrated here. There is a lot of yelling and screaming but loudness does not equal acting. Jeannie was really disappointing and ineffective as the main character. She keeps forcing her lines out and I can’t understand what she is saying in some scenes. Alex did very badly as the male lead. I feel a lot of plot devices were added for the sake of it to attract attention. Some bits don’t make sense. Whilst I disliked the open ending, I don’t want a second season as I feel it is a waste of time and we would probably be left with another open ending.
