If you are a fan of local drama, you might have seen this one before.
It’s quite the topic recently, thanks to its golden-hour time slot.
But if you’re still undecided on whether or not this drama is worth a go, here are some facts about the show that will make you want to go on a drama marathon:
1. Synopsis
Before we watch a show, we have to know what it is all about.
So here’s the synopsis extracted from Toggle:
“Looking back at five years ago, with his best – selling books, fully – booked schedule for talks and media interviews, Zhou JinShu was a rising celebrity psychiatrist and one of the sought – after psychiatrists in the social elites circle. While he was immersing himself in the sweet smell of success, he was ironically unaware that his girlfriend – JieFang had been suffering from a mental illness – “Delusion of Jealousy.” Feeling neglected and insecure, JieFang had been haunted by her uncontrollable suspicion about JinShu cheating on her. This excessive delusion of jealousy eventually pushed her to the verge of insanity and made her attempt to end her life together with JinShu. In the midst of chaotic pushing and pulling, both of them accidentally fell from the high floor. This fatal incident took JieFang’s life and caused JinShu to be in a critical condition. Despite the physical recovery later on, JinShu has suffered from “Post Traumatic Stress Disorder – PTSD.” JinShu was deeply traumatized by witnessing his own girlfriend’s death. The deep feeling of guilt and remorse made him withdraw into himself completely; he shunned himself from the outside world, and no one had ever heard from him since then.”
Wow…that’s very deep.
So now we know where the name of the drama comes from.
2. Cast
And of course, we all love a star-studded cast full of familiar faces.
Well, this time around, Channel 8 did it again!

For those of you who found her name foreign, she was the female Star Search champion in 1997.
Tan gained her fame through her roles in dramas such as The Return Of The Condor Heroes (1998) and Immortal Love (1997).

Found the name familiar?
You might remember her through this picture:

She took part in various singing competitions and is now preparing to release her second album.
5. Qi Yuwu
The well-known actor is finally back on the small screen after a two-year break.
As a dad-of-two, who just welcomed his new baby last April, Qi says that it is hard to juggle script-reading and…all the baby stuff.
Meanwhile, let’s see if his diaper-changing skills helped with his toilet-repairing skills in the drama!
6. Theme songs
Everybody knows that a nice OST makes a drama even better.
Here are the three sub-theme songs that you should probably check out cos of the singers:

8. The two leads
