I just finished my second Aaron Yan’s series. And um… mmm… um… I was a bit disappointed. Nothing wrong with the acting. Honestly, the characters portrayed their roles very well. It’s the storyline that’s really messy. 莫名其妙!
The start of the series was really interesting. 路天行 is a famous person in the advertising world. He got tired of doing things the way it is and wants to pursue his dreams of creating heartwarming ads. He wants to find his passion again. On the day of his break, he disguised himself as a commoner to escape his colleagues and got introduced to OZ Advertising. A small advertising company. He helped them out and became part of the team as 小鹿. Later on he would fall in love with 陶樂思, the boss of OZ Advertising.
He does sweet things for 陶樂思 and she fell in love with him. Then problems starts arising. He wants to protect her in any way that he can. She only loves 小鹿 and 路天行 is trying to make her fall in love with him too.
He grew up with the 李 family where the daughter 李歡歡 wants to marry him and would do anything to marry him.
So, basically that’s the premise. A lot of mess happens along the way. And somehow the character of 路天行 became despicable for me. I mean, he can’t protect the one he loves, he’s hurting the one who loves him. And we didn’t get to know the reason why he was acting as a jerk. In fact, there were a lot of unresolved issues. A LOT I mean. Suddenly, the characters are becoming crazy/obsessed. And then it just went away. Why? Why? Why?
Towards the end, it was a bit dragging and uninteresting. I just finished it just for the sake of finishing it. I was expecting 路天行 to have a really strong personality. But he was helpless on a lot of occasion. I was really disappointed. 陶樂思 on the other hand, became stronger but somehow I feel that she is pathetic. At one point, I felt that all the characters are acting weird.
There’s chemistry between the Aaron and Tia. And it was fun watching them at first. Before the storyline was messed up. Somehow, it makes me think, why would your family member hurt you on purpose? Why would someone suddenly can’t fulfill promise? Why would you let go of someone you love so easily? Why? Why? Why? I was really frustrated after watching the series.
Anyway, soundtrack is really good. I like Aaron’s songs. It’s very heartwarming.
The artists in the series are really good. They acted according to the weird story. So if you want to be impressed with their acting. You can go on and watch this series. 🙂
I’m taking a break from TV Series first, and would be back with Just You. After I forget the frustrations I’ve felt in watching this. Off to YouTube to watch Aaron Yan’s performances.
