Ri Luo Gui Chuan Hai

Nice premise wrong execution

While the premise is quite novel, the story wasn't well-told. SML and SFL transmigrated into the book to drive the plot, and their perspectives were clearly those of the viewers – just like us. However, the limited runtime meant that developing the main characters' story while also introducing the second leads felt rushed, leaving neither aspect fully explained. Compared to the cast, the plot was weak, focusing primarily on the conflict between the main characters and their stepmother, with very little development of the main couple's romance. There was almost no emotional build-up or sweet moments, somewhat wasting Liu Qing and Bai Yan's acting talent.

Secondary couple felt more like spectators, failing to even advance the plot; the main characters had to rely on their intelligence to resolve the crisis. The actress playing the stepmother overacted;her exaggerated facial expressions always made me sigh.

Don't watch unless you want to see Liu Qing and Bai Yan romantic moment.
