Reception

Critical response

Pierce Conran of the South China Morning Post gave the series 2 out of 5 stars, noting that the drama "fizzles out" and ultimately disappoints after a promising start. He criticized the show for failing to capitalize on its office setting, writing that the narrative became a "tepid" and "conventional" office romance that lacked tension. Conran particularly pointed out the "sluggish pace" of the second half, stating that the series struggled to fill its 16-episode run as the conflict between the leads became repetitive and the supporting characters remained "one-dimensional."
