One word. Beautiful.
Personally, I love this drama. Even though yes, the plot is basically the typical freaky friday body swap thing, it still has really fresh and new elements to it. One of it is that they don’t just use that plot once, but many more times which makes it more interesting.I also love how there are a lot of different yet interconnected conflicts. It might be confusing for some people (honestly I was one of them) because there are so many things happening in the drama, but that makes the drama really fun.
OH AND THE ACTING. Oh my god. Top tier. I love their acting, especially the main characters. Their chemistry is chef’s kiss😘🤌. I kept laughing throughout the entire drama. THEY’RE SO CUTE TOGETHER😩💗. Lastly, the music, hanfus, world building, and cinematography are also top tier.
💯Recommended.

Trading the Crown Prince For a Killer
I watched this short drama based on the review of lullabaey. The review was interesting and spot on. I did enjoy this drama very much. The first male lead Shi Yi (played by Cui Yu Xin) and the first female lead Gu Qing Yao (played by Zhang Chu Han, were great. He played the assassin and she played the crown princess. The crown princess and the crown prince (Ling Yu (played by Chen Ming Hao) were childhood sweethearts and had just gotten married. They were in love with each other. After assassin Shi Yi tried to kill the crown prince on his wedding day, the crown princess shoved the assassin off of the bridge and into the water. She also fell in the water. It was the beginning of their souls being switched from each other's bodies. So many events happened. The assassin Shi Yi became the bodyguard for the crown princess Gu Qing Yao. The crown princess started keeping the crown prince at a distance, whether her soul was in her body or the assassin's soul was in her body. The crown prince wanted to consummate his marriage to the crown princess; that never happened. Gu Qing Yao fell out of love with the crown prince and she fell in love with the assassin Shi Yi. One really shocking point was when the crown princess' soul was in the assassin's body, she met with the leader of the assassins; it was none other that her father, the Prime Minister. The crown princess' father wanted the assassin to kill his daughter, the crown princess Gu Qin Yao. She told her father that the crown princess was three months pregnant, so her father called off the hit on his daughter. The crown princess Gu Qing Yao made the assassin Shi Yi smile; he did not smile in life much before interacting with her. The crown princess Gu Qing Yao and the assassin Shi Yi made a deal with the new emperor (former crown prince Ling Yu) that he would have his soul back in his body, if he let the crown princess leave the palace for good and live her life the way she wanted to. He had to agree. Shi Yi and Gu Qing Yao kissed and went off into their new life together. There was a very happy ending.Was this review helpful to you?
