Don't mind the product placements. The acting and plot were engaging and chemistry sizzling!
I was in the mood for something short that I could watch on my commute to a doctor's appointment. I was intrigued when this drama was released because of the leads (Zhang Chu Xuan and Wang Kai Mu) and the episode count. The youtube comments mentioned product placement. I must say I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this drama.What I liked:
1. Plot - Compact storytelling about FL enacting revenge on her vicious family. Even though the episode count was small (only 18) and the drama was backed by product placement, I found the story was simple, easily digestible and enjoyable.
2. Acting - Great performances by Zhang Chu Xuan, Wang Kai Mu and the actress who played FL's sister. There was also great chemistry between Zhang Chu Xuan and Wang Kai Mu. They made me feel warm in some scenes.
3. Main characters - They were flawed but likeable. I understood the feelings experienced by FL. I also liked how perceptive ML was.
4. Romance - There was sexual tension from the get go. FL went to ML to make use of his connections but later felt in love with him. There were sweet moment and spicy kisses (to my delight). I could sense passion and love in their kisses.
5. Product placement - I'd say they were ok because most made sense in this story.
6. Styling - Wonderful clothes worn by FL and ML.
7. Duration - 62 minutes is just wonderful.
What I disliked:
1. Antagonists - FL's family was vicious especially the sister. FL's father was so gullible.
Favourite scene
When FL asked ML "Why was he nice to her?"

Still unnatural drama for advertisement
Aside from the obvious product placement, the entire series is just a generic short drama. FL is wrongly convicted and tortured in a mental hospital, escapes, and uses ML's influence to seek revenge. There's constant slapping, and the ML only appears after the FL has been tortured enough.Chemistry between Wang Kaimu and Zhang Chuxuan still sufficient but not too overflowing. Feels this drama didn't focus on romance but revenge. Zhang Chuxuan plays the crazy FL smooth and Wang Kaimu styling in this drama is too messy.
Some scenes are ridiculously absurd, like when the FL is pushed into the water by a antagonist to drown, but the water only reaches her knees. Plot in this drama is too lazy lacking effort.
After watch this drama did i want to use the website? absolutely nope ❤︎
