No matter how this series was lambasted by some critics, I still enjoyed this series as a whole, but mostly from the middle part to the end, except for that bad thing that happened in Puerto Morelos (Estado de Quintana Roo, Mexico).
💤💤💤💤💤
For more than twenty episodes I was having the second lead syndrome because of the seemingly lack of chemistry between Z. Tao and Janice Wu during the first half of the series, and I found the second lead more worthy of her love until he hurt her(I won't tell you why, but if you've seen this series already, you'd know what I am talking about). I felt her pain. He was in agony too, and he was choosing the greater good(according to his thoughts), but... Anyway, he became nice again, but my heart went on rooting for Zheng Boxu instead. Besides, he was like a seesaw that went up and down(he's the invisible i in teAm) . He definitely regretted choosing wrongly...He had his chance, but he blew it. There's a reason for everything, right?
As for Zheng Boxu, well, he grows on you. At first Z. TAO wasn't acting well. I wasn't convinced that he was an IDOL or something, but I guess, that kind of acting was suited for the earlier part of this series. Apparently, he was really in character. Yang Zhenzhen really changed him for the better, and wow, I like the fact that the SUPER STAR is the one who falls in love FIRST. Yes, he was still full of negative pride, he was still arrogant and cocky making a lot of people hate him more and more each day, but his soft side was getting evident little by little midway.
I didn't even want to watch this. I like Janice Wu as an actress since FIGHTER OF DESTINY (I watched THE FOX FAIRY COURT after FOD), but I didn't think Z. TAO suited her. I am glad I took a chance, and saw that this series is worth watching. They have as troupes what we could consider mini travelogues...and because of that, I appreciated this series more...well, except for the kidnapping part. Why??????????
Songs and Dances of Inner Mongolia
There was one WeTV viewer who said while laughing, "Diba wala kayong gas?" To that viewer, not picking a fight, but I am just informing you, there was a local holding a Jerry Can(Gasoline container). Yun lang :-). Sometimes we don't notice things the first time, but if you watch it again, you would see what you have missed, so it's not your fault that you didn't notice the Gasoline container.
In another scene far from Inner Mongolia, one WeTV viewer asked where all his earnings went as a Superstar. That viewer has a point.
There are many interesting comments about this series. Thankfully, they are not as distracting as the ones in other shows.

From My Drama List
According to XIA YUAN, Yang Zhen Zhen's closest friend and Yu Zirui's assistant said,"A lot of people sing well, but not everybody can become stars." (I know there could have been others who said that before, but in this series, it was her who said that. Xia Yuan is played by CAO XIYUE)

Vocal nodules are hard, rough, noncancerous growths on your vocal cords. They can be as small as a pinhead or as large as a pea. You get nodules from straining or overusing your voice, especially from singing, yelling, or talking loudly or for a long period of time. Vocal nodules go by other names based on their cause.-From healthline
