Huang Hou Pao Lu Hou Cheng Le Xin Jian Chong Fei (2025)

That random conversation made this time-travel drama memorable

This drama has been in my playlist since the day I created this MDL page. Last night I was in the mood for morally grey main characters so I decided to watch this drama. Overall it was a good watch.

What I liked:
1. FL characterisation - She's quick thinker & compassionate and I liked that.
2. ML characterisation - I liked the character development and was surprised when I found out the twist.
3. Acting - Such a magnetic performance by Wang Nan - he totally embodied his character. I enjoyed watching Sun Qian Xun in this role especially in dramatic scenes. She showed to us that she could do well in both comedic and dramatic moments.
4. Comedy - Funny moments were plentiful and my favourite is the random conversation between FL and ML.
5. Relationship - They started off on the wrong foot but slowly formed alliance and later romantic feelings.
6. Plague - I liked how the story of plague was embedded in this drama.

What I disliked:
1. Antagonists - The concept was good but execution was less compelling. I was bored when scenes of antagonists appeared that I increased speed to 2.0
2. Romance - Their first intimate encounter didn't sit well with me because ML was injured / unconscious. Anyway I wish there were more sweet and tender moments between FL and ML.

Favourite scene
That random conversation between FL and ML.
