This drama sort of has a Pi Li MIT vibe doesn't it? It certainly remind me of it, although I never actually finished it. It got way too weird for my taste. However, this drama seems like a new role for Joe Cheng. He's so used to playing that rich, handsome boy in the romantic dramas, this might be worth a shot. Also, it doesn't look like the typical TW drama..

What do you think? Yay or nay?

Introduction - That Love Comes

A reader mentioned this drama in the cbox and I tried checking it out. It looks semi-interesting, although I'm not a major fan of Joe Cheng or Li Fei Er. (Not that I don't like them, I just don't always think they're that interesting).

Anyways, this drama is actually a Tudou production.. - Yeah, I had no idea they had started doing that either..

Small town girl Ye Zi arrives at the big city and works in a small convenience store. Ye Zi’s father died young and she left home early to repay her mother’s debts, and at the same time she also supports her younger brother with his studies. Although life is difficult, Ye Zi still believed that as long as you persevere, you will obtain happiness. In what looked like an ordinary day, Ye Zi prepares to return her final loan hoping that from then on she can start with her brand new life. However, fashion photographer Xia Tian unintentionally enters the convenience store and has an unexpected encounter with Ye Zi. After a series of circumstancial errors, Ye Zi’s dream of repaying her debts almost got destroyed. In the middle of the night, Xia Tian realizes the mistake and immediately goes back to the convenience store and returns the money. Having gone through a day of emotional torment, Ye Zi cried silently upon receiving directly from Xia Tian’s hands the money he returned which still held his warmth.

This is her in the city, feeling the warmth amidst strangers for the very first time.
