I spent the wee hours of this morning watching episodes 16 to 20 (conclusion) of this Taiwanese drama. Although it's listed as Taiwanese, there's Maggie Siu in it, the Hong Kong actress who is currently in The Gem of Life. My eyes are so painful now because I couldn't stop myself from crying. It is such a sad drama, without the screams, shouts and odd sounds of Korean dramas, which could get pretty irritating if overboard.

The serial that I watched was dubbed in Cantonese so it was easier on my ears and more enjoyable for me than if I were to watch it in Mandarin. The story explores many angles of LOVE; love between man and woman, love between mother and son, husband and wife, love between friends, love between stepmother and stepson, etc.

Watching this movie could be pretty frustrating because even though Hao Ze and Summer love each other, they could not be together due to many obstacles along the way and even though they got married, they divorced after three months. The issues leading to their divorced seemed pretty insignificant to third parties that towards the end of the drama, I actually forgot why they divorced in the first place.

After the divorce, they found that they could not live without the other person. It would be great if they could just get back together now but Summer lost her memory in an accident and they would have to overcome that as well. What didn't help matters was that people on the side kept interfering and trying their best to keep them apart.

Watching I Do? was like watching Korean drama Coffee Prince where the two male leads were supposedly from rich families so they dressed sharply even though they did not have any money and worked like everyone else. The female leads, on the other hand, were from working class families and they dressed in everyday comfortable clothes.

I Do?, despite all the tears in the second half of the drama, has its funny moments too. The funny stuff are in the dialog and although they brought chuckles from me, I actually forgot what I laughed about soon after. I think I would have retained the joke better if I had watched it instead of listened to it.

Many scenes of this drama were pretty unbelievable like Summer's accident and the disabled guy who was pushed down after undergoing spinal surgery, without suffering from some sort of further injury.

Whatever, it’s just drama and I enjoyed it while watching and that’s the important thing, isn’t it?

This is the theme song of I Do? by Fish Leong (梁靜茹) titled Belong To (屬於). Fish Leong is actually a Malaysian girl who has found much success in Taiwan and best known for her signature love ballads. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
