Ru guo wo niu you ai qing (2016)
Great Story, Misleading English Title
The title of the show, along with the synopsis on Netflix, is highly misleading. As the other reviewers pointed out, this is primarily a crime/mystery/thriller, and it is a good one. I enjoyed the growth required by both leads. While Ji Bai is good at what he does, he's very stoic and singularly focused-Xu Xu's entrance into his world forces him to expand beyond his Black and White way of viewing the world. Xu Xu was a great character but also had to grow-that said, she probably should have spent most of these missions in an armored car watching via CCTV. Even still, I enjoyed the storyline, and how the cases eventually overlapped. There was some romance, but it didn't feel forced or cheesy. All in all it was a great series, and seemed to end with the hint of a season 2. I do hope they get one as it left some questions unanswered.
