I cried A LOT watching this drama ;__;. I remember that I actually wanted to watch this since last year, but put it off because it's a sad drama. I started watching it because of my friend's recommendation, but I almost immediately regretted it. Not because it's not a good drama, but because I really didn't want to look like an idiot, bawling her eyes out in front of the computer screen. I think I can only watch one of such dramas every say, two years, otherwise my lifespan would be shortened 'cos I'd be shedding too much tears, LOL. But anyway, it's a very touching drama, that was made by the masochist scriptwriters and great actors :).
Ren Guang Xi was initally a psychotic jerk, but he changed for the better. I think his character was constantly changing; it made me confused sometimes lol. Honestly I don't really like him that much,'cos he's self-centred and he misunderstands things very easily. But he's okay. Vanness 很帅 xD. He definitely looks cuter with short hair ^^. His Chinese is mostly fine now, but I love it when he speaks English! I know that English is his first language and it's a given that his English should be good, but it doesn't change the fact that his English is damn hot LOL xPP.
Mu Chen is very, very nice :). She's got a strong character, despite her stick-thin frame. She's very gentle, is always very logical and is a damn good liar HAHA. I love her character a lot; she's my favourite person in the whole show ^^. Ady is soooo pretty! She's got such a small face lol. She did very well with this role; her scenes are the ones that touched me the most. I'm now torn between wanting to watch her other dramas and feeling like I have to avoid them 'cos I fear for my lifespan LOL.
Hua Tuo Ye is not good-looking, but somehow I find him really cute. He curses a lot, but maybe that's because he was brought up in a village and all. And it's funny when he curses hahaha. His actions and speech are like a gangster's, but he's really such a nice guy. I like him a lot! His confession was so heartfelt -- he wasn't trying to be cool or anything; he was just saying what he truly felt. He was so pitiful, but at least in the end he found his own happiness. Anyway, Wu Kang Ren is a great actor! Those expressions that he made actually made me said OUCH out loud, and his dialogues were delivered with a lot of conviction. I'll be looking forward to his future works ^^.
Yi Qian is a very cool girl ^^. She's kind, easygoing and pretty. It's impossible to hate her, which makes the whole situation so much more complicated lol ^^;;.
I don't think Mu Chen was wrong in wanting Guang Xi to have a higher chance of surviving, but instead of lying to him, I think she should have convinced him to go for the proton treatment, because no one could have had more influence on him than she did, damn it. I don't think Yi Qian did anything wrong in not telling Guang Xi about Mu Cheng either, 'cos she really believed that she was doing it to save him from pain, but she should have been honest about what their relationship had been -- friends -- and allow things to happen naturally, if they were to. And she really stayed by Guang Xi's side in those painful six years; HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE GRATEFUL.
XIAO LE IS SOOO ADORABLE :DD! He's so young, but he's such a good kid :)). And he's that same kid that acted in Down With Love haha! His (stage) name is 小小彬! AHHH I can't get over how cute he is lol.
I like Xiao Lin (Ren family lawyer); he's a good lawyer and a good person. There are a few actors that acted in Fated To Love You! Even the wooden horse is the same lol xP. Here, Chen Xin Yi's mum acted as Tuo Ye's mum. She's HILARIOUS HAHAHA. And she's a very good actress too!
The ending is a happy one, for everyone. But I don't understand why those sweet scenes involving Guang Xi, Mu Cheng and Xiao Le were not shown in the very short 23 minutes last episode at all, and only shown before/after advertisements, and at the ending credits of the earlier episodes. It doesn't make sense -.-".
I think the writers made Guang Xi change too fast because of Mu Cheng. I mean, I know that the whole bad-guy-becomes-a-good-guy-because-he-falls-in-love plot is sweet and all, but here it was just way too fast. I won't even talk about how incredibly fast Yi Qian got to become a full-fledged specialist, LMAO. They are smart in having cliffhangers at the end of every episode, though, which may explain the drama's high ratings.
A profession in law is a tricky one. Depending on the cases that one takes, he can either save a lot of people, or kill them.
LOVE IS PAIN; THAT'S A FACT.
