Viewers often use the words “authentic, fresh, and warm” to describe the series. However, there has been some debate among viewers about the sibling relations transitioning into romantic feelings. Seven Tan, who stars as “Li Jianjian”, the younger sister of the family, recently did an interview and talked about this controversy. She expressed, “First of all, these family members don’t have any blood relations. So after turning into lovers, starting from when they become lovers and then retreating, and then becoming family again, this is also what we want this drama to say, that is, as long as we cherish each other, care for each other, even if there is no blood relations, you could also become one family.”

When talking about her two older brothers intervening with “Li Jianjian’s” relationships and whether there is a “safe distance” between the family members, Seven Tan expressed that if she was a viewer, she’d think that managing it a bit is a form of showing love. To “Li Jianjian”, her heart knot has not been resolved yet due to the 9 year absence of her brothers. As for them interfering in her love life, there would be some feelings of “who do you think you are”. If they continued living together just like when they were young, then there wouldn’t be the so called “safe distance”. She also expressed that in “Li Jianjian’s” heart, both her brothers are of equal importance.
