    Lots of anti Taiwan mainland reviewers

    Wonderful actors and character building is great. Don't listen to the mainland China reviewers. They don't like anything that is good that comes out of Taiwan including this show.

    The acting from the six leading ladies is how you would portray women in movies. Definitely great acting chops and a joy to watch all 8 episodes in a row.

    The chemistry of each character is great and casting is superb. I just hope season 2 on December 30, 2021 will introduce even more character developments.

    One of the best suspense thrillers

    One of the best suspense thrillers I have watched with slow-built mystery, strong acting and dialogues. A multitude of feelings have been explored and portrayed well. Some people may find it slow but believe this will be a delight for those who love slow paced thrillers or suspense. Waiting for the third season to be released.

    Casts n acting

    It is probably the most powerful casts I have ever seen in a Taiwan drama. The casts are most talented and be part of a leading role in many drama or movie in Taiwan. Even eating a meal in restaurant can see full of emotion and deep deep acting. The story just like a recent drama white lotus but doesn't matter like or not, just a crime theme but I really addicted to the acting. The background in 80s is a big bonus for those live and grow up in that time and city. Don't surprise lots of awards will go this drama, no doubt Ruby Lin another peak in her acting career, really have progress compare her "16 summer" and the improvement is huge. For whom like watch acting, please watch this.

    Not bad, even not a masterpiece

    This new show is good with shocking moments and twists which actually hooks you up but you have to be as patient as you can but the acting is at it's peak slow burn but worth a try.

    LIGHT THE NIGHT: Taipei in the 80's

    LIGHT THE NIGHT (2021 - ) is a Taiwanese Drama, and was a really well done series, albeit much different than the usual crime dramas out there. It was very slower moving, and at first a bit hard to really get into it, but this does improve with time and patience. I must say that the era of the 1980's in Taipei made for a very interesting setting. Actress Ruby Lin, shines bright, as always.

    "In the red light district of 1980s Taipei, women at a popular Japanese night club navigate jealousy, heartbreak, friendship and love."

    The quality of the series is evident and the acting is top tier as well. The story, while a bit slower paced initially, gets pretty good. Overall, this was a very well made series, very intriguing.
