Sweet relationship–I love the ending

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweet_Relationship

Just finished watching the last episode of  Sweet Relationship, the taiwan drama starring Vic Zhou as Fang Zhi Tian and Patricia Hsu as Bai Hui.  The happy ending really made me smile–after how many episodes of when will they ever get romantic, the last few scenese show Fang Zhi Tian finally opening up and confessing his love to Bai Hui.  He kisses  Bai Hui the whole time that the background music  I love you is playing.  It wasn’t really a hot kiss though.  And the nice thing is, Zhi Tian suddenly became very demonstrative after that, kissing Bai Hui several times until the end.  This maybe corny to some people but to me, it is a feel good ending, in stark contrast to the Japanese original on which this taiwan drama was based, that is Oishi Kankei. 

In this j-drama, the ending was not as happy as living happily ever after.  As I said in  an earlier write-up, the chef and the lady parted ways since the chef had a two year contract in Paris and said that when he comes back, he would taste the cooking of Nakayama Miho.  Even the theme song is really bouncy, with a feel good beat. Will I watch the drama again?  Maybe not.
