Remarks

[Quotes] There’s a line that’s a neat pun with Zhang Xin Cheng’s name:

髒就不能心誠嗎？
→ If it’s dirty, then the heart can’t be sincere?
→ Zāng jiù bùnéng xīn chéng ma?
→ If it's Zhang then it can’t be Xin Cheng?

[Variety Shows] There's two.

Young Blood 2: Team Bonding (sans Zhang Xin Cheng)

Young Blood Detectives (with Zhang Xin Cheng)

Ep1: Remake opening song
Ep2: Their missions is to treat one member with favouritism. (Aw)
Ep2.5: Fu Wei Lun and Su Xiao Tong kinda have chemistry!

[Ending] Happy or Open (Sad).

[Review & Rating]

For my love of Qizhai, I conquered this drama. It was tough. The plot was muddled in convoluted twists and everyone’s messed up fathers. I just wanted simple team moments. Why was that so hard? *Cries*

The writer wrote himself into a hole because of that cliffhanger from S1. He has to dig the characters out of that hole, go back to that hole, and fill that hole. I was also annoyed at the tone everyone speaks in: theatrical witlings. The comedy kept drumming but the comedy wasn’t funny.

The good (scarce) stuff:

Qizhai (Section 7). Of course. It’s because of them I suffered.
Section 8 will stay in my heart. In particular Huang Xi Yan’s Hua Ci Shu. His final scene was striking. Subtle and powerful. I look forward to this actor.
I was going to compliment the happy ending for being superior to S1('s cliffhanger). However, Zhang Xin Cheng’s interpretation ruined it for me. Unfortunately, his explanation actually makes sense.

The best thing the drama gave me: the variety show. And there's two! The drama stripped me of team moments, but I got it here!

Rating: 2/5
