Introduction - Love Buffet

A new drama will be airing this Sunday (or should I say, tomorrow?) Anyways, I believe this is highly anticipated by Fahrenheit, Arron or Calvin fans. The cast and the production has definitely not been problem free. First they were delayed by a typhoon, then they suddenly changed female lead.

This drama is replacing Personal Taste.

After Xiao Feng starts to get along with Da Ye, Xiao Feng realized that she fell in love with Da Ye. However, Da Ye doesn't have any feelings for Xiao Feng as he treats every single girl in the same way. Sometimes, Xiao Feng felt like she is treated more "special" than the other girls.

One day, she finally decided to confess to Da Ye, but she got rejected because Da Ye told her that he doesn't know the true meaning of "LOVE". After the confession, Xiao Feng got really depressed. She didn't know that the courage to go after her true love will end up in a big mess.

What is the exact meaning of "LOVE"? A triangle-love relationship by three of them which includes friendship and the family. The buffet of love, how do they combine them to form the taste of happiness?

This looks like a very typical TW drama with the (slightly) silly romance and comedy. I think this is a pass for me. I doubt even Arron's handsome face can make up for the (assumingly cliché-filled storyline), sorry.. What do you think?

The trailer didn't look all that great to me, because I'm not much of a "mystery & suspense" fan when it comes to Taiwanese Dramas, but I'll give it a shot because of Arron.
