I leave critics over all movies and tv series in douban. Since this show is banned in China mainland, i will rate here. The show is rated 9. It's not about complex political competition. It's about ideally human rights advocates, LGBT + METOO campaign and self pursuit to own dreams as normal being. Also the plots and the campaign scenes are at best close to real. I love taiwan series and am amazed by their new developments these years. I had not been to taiwan and long for a chance to make a tour. The social culture and atmosphere is close to mainland and leading+open while reviving from preserved tradition.

As a Chinese who is living in Mainland China, I really love this series which provide me a different Chinese world.

Unfortunately this show is banned in China and I had to use BT to download it and watch it privately.

The plot is not actually more routine, but it is also very novel for mainland Chinese people, after all, we can't really participate in elections here.

Purely from the point of view of film and television, the most I can give this drama is 8, but considering its political significance, I will give this one 10.

The issues involved in this, such as LGBT, and bureaucratic corruption, are very need to be addressed in the mainland, it is a pity that there is nothing we can do, but envy the Taiwanese at home.

It's hard to imagine such a show, they didn't point out the structural part explicitly, but they have been telling women's stories dutifully, maybe a little old-fashioned revenge. But it's all reproduced by women, those more Close to the actual victim's perspective, "repeatedly open the video website to see if there are any photos of yourself, Let's not forget it like this. Kingmaker? No,Queen maker, these subtle statements really represent changes that can be changed strength. Change is not a world smashed by an axe, but a change of gradual compromise that will wear away the rocks. They are full of compromise and helplessness, but they still seem to be asking themselves "What is your original intention for governing?" What is your original intention? It seems that almost no one here asks this question anymore. We have no strength, no rights, and no voice. To be heard is a gift, so how dare we stand up and question what we believe in? "If you want to know how to really understand yourself, you just run for election." This sentence seems to represent their ability and helplessness. Who would expect a good change in the democratic system? None of us have this kind of confidence. Human beings are full of uncertainties, and the democratic system is so fragile that it is necessary and indispensable to tirelessly question and hear the news and all censorship questions that may have nothing to do with the ultimate goal. But compared to other citizens, it is an adventure for me to even watch it. It relatively shows another possibility. The political education we receive is obedience, acceptance and praise, or how to use policies to come up with countermeasures. But no one seems to want to be a wave maker, but a refugee behind the iron walls of the larger system. Too tired, too tired, no confidence, and no one will be given the heroine's last confidence "I want.... legislator, mayor... who knows?" Who knows? Even this sentence who knows is a luxury, we know what the future will be like, we know, we know clearly. This is the most melancholy and sad place.

Upon encountering a Taiwanese television drama respecting elections and domestic politics, I harbored concerns that it might excessively rely on melodrama and deviate from the realities of political operations. Therefore, my expectations for this series were not particularly high, and I intended to sample just one episod.

However, from the very first episode, I could sense the dedication of the production team. They didn't resort to sensationalism or distortions to create a nonexistent political situation. Instead, they approached the topic steadily and authentically by portraying various political maneuvers and events that occur in real political operations, allowing the audience to get closer to the reality of domestic politics.

Furthermore, the team delicately handled many crucial issues in political work, such as the pursuit of ideals and the compromises faced with the realities of power, as well as the conflicts between different political ideologies and styles within political dynasties. They also addressed the issue of maintaining a work-life balance in the face of high workloads during election campaigns or unforeseen political events. These significant issues were not merely touched upon but rather explored and well discussed throughout the entire series.

Finally, the drama also delves into contemporary issues such as workplace harassment, infidelity, and voyeuristic victimization, making it a more comprehensive and more appealing to watch for a wider audience.

This is an unmissable choice for those seeking to understand Taiwanese politics through a television drama.

An interesting political drama where we see a team behind a female presidential candidate working hard to get her elected. The campaign team includes strong female leads Ying-Hsuan Hsieh and Gingle Wan, with the latter having a dark secret concerning the male opposition candidate. It gives an insight into the workings of a Taiwanese election and the plot at times can be a little slow with the minor stories taking up time and going nowhere. The series definitely puts across the busy and creative side of an office deciding what should and should not be done in the best interest of their candidate. Overall a well acted drama but I would have liked more depth and development of characters.
