10/10? Questionable. Did I enjoy it? Absolutely.

This is one of those dramas I've wanted to watch since the trailer came out. I was so interested that I even renewed my Youku subscription just to watch all the episodes. So yes, I definitely came into this drama with expectations. 😂

And after finishing it, would I say it's a perfect drama?

Probably not.

There are honestly a lot of things that are questionable. The storyline isn't exactly the most sophisticated, the setting isn't anything extraordinary, and there are definitely moments where I had to sit there and think, "Okay... we're really doing this?"😂

But here's the thing: I don't really care.

I picked this drama as my entertainment space, and it did exactly what I wanted it to do.

It made me laugh.

Sometimes I'm not looking for a drama with an amazing storyline, incredible world-building, or performances that make me rethink life itself. Sometimes I just want to open my laptop, watch Ao Ruipeng being Ao Ruipeng, laugh at whatever nonsense is happening on screen, and forget about my stress for a while.

And Pull Strings gave me that.

So maybe my 10/10 isn't a rating for every single element of the drama. It's more like a rating for how much I enjoyed watching it.

Was everything good? No.

Was everything logical? Absolutely not. 😂

Did I have a good time? Yes. And that's enough for me.

Sometimes a drama doesn't need to be fancy to become one of your favorites. Sometimes it just needs to make you laugh at the right moment when you really need it.

For me, Pull Strings was exactly that kind of drama.
