It's kinda good series maybe because it is an adaptation from the novel named 'squid stewed with honey'....However this series is kinda different one if compared to other cleeche chineese love story based series...This series is more than just a triangle love story. The series make us see through other prospectives like friendship ,passion, fighting for dream, giving up, rising again, reconciling of misunderstood friendship etc....its kinda good...I suggest this if you love to watch something big like competitions winning for your whole country and that story to success along the sideline of a sweet love story.
