Thanks to our AD Lucy Dong, who lent her dvds to me, I watched a complete set of Chinese TV series for the first time since I started working in China. The drama is about a group of young friends trying to make it in the real world, and their own dealings with career, friends, and relationships. I didn't really get into it in the beginning because the production value of it is so low, that sometimes it can't really convey what script asked for, not to mention some really mediocre art direction and more-often-than-I'd-like cliche wardrobe (Think pink polo shirt with collars up). Its also a bit too clever for its own good, I don't like script writers that write really long and almost impossibly complicated lines for say, a confrontation scene, most people usually can't think when they fight. Now, having said that, I did watch all 32 episodes and liked the series. Its pretty clever and most importantly, original. The series isn't on a lot of channels now but it generated a lot of buzz already amongst the young people here, especially amongst those young professionals. I also got attracted towards the characters for the qualities I admire.
The series also triggered me to do something really lame over the weekend, for some reason I ran out of the house dazed and confused in the cold, and sms-ed someone I told my self never again to... anyways, its more on the funny side than sad really, I'm ok.
Sorry, I usually post poster up along with tv shows, but, the poster is pretty shitty in this case, and doesn't do the series justice, so I'll spare you the pain this time. You can easily google them these days.
