In order to avoid being expelled from school, Ye Zi Jie lied and pretended to be sick. He used all kinds of tricks, including putting panda make-up to pretend to look pale, riding his bike into a fence, or even telling his teacher he was not fine to order to sleep at the school health room. Unexpectedly, the teacher sent Ye Zi, the class monitor who has the same name as him, to show special concern. She always has evidence about his fake illness, and she follows closely just to confirm whether he is really sick or not. Gradually, the two get to know each other better in the spy-to-spy interaction, and become closer and closer... (Source: kisskh) Edit Translation

A Heartfelt Romance About Authenticity
The story of Lovesick follows Ye Zijie, a troubled student who, in an attempt to escape academic pressure and family problems, decides to fake an illness. At the same time, we meet Ye Zijie, the strict yet mysterious class president (who, curiously, shares his name), and who soon begins to suspect his deception.At first, I wasn’t fond of the female lead’s behavior. Her blunt, almost hostile attitude feels jarring, so much so that it’s hard to imagine anyone acting like that in real life. Yet, as the film progresses, it becomes clear that this sharpness is part of her character’s evolution.
Director Fu-Hsiang Hsu skillfully avoids falling into the trap of exaggerated melodrama. Rather than leaning on the usual clichés of romance films to force empathy, he allows the story to unfold naturally, revealing the characters with both their flaws and their strengths. This choice makes their connection feel far more genuine, and therefore, much more powerful.
Ultimately, Lovesick is a film about acceptance, not only of illness or circumstance, but also of oneself. By confronting and exposing their vulnerabilities, the characters learn to love themselves and discover strength within their fragility. It is precisely this courage, this bravery to be seen as they truly are, that makes the film’s message resonate so deeply.

I'M NOT CRYING, YOU ARE T___T
I 'accidentally' watch this film when the thumbnail appears on my timeline. I was brave enough to watch it right away after I read some reviews here and there and valued the ending. I would say it was a fast-paced love story, and I also giggled throughout the movie. Other than that, I'm not a big fan of the 'lying' kind of trope, so sadly I'm not the man you're looking for. Despite this, I still enjoyed their acting and stunning cinematography.Was this review helpful to you?
