A True Gem
~ If you ever derailed, will someone help you get railed back in to the right track? ~
The story is about Jiang Xiaoyan, an heiress to the Jiang Group. She was living her life to the fullest until she discovered her best friend and boyfriend was having an affair. Unfortunately, she got into an accident and finds herself into an entirely opposite world from her world. After all the confusion and denial, she concluded that maybe she time travelled or travelled into a dimensional world. In the new world, her name and appearance remained but with totally opposite social status. After wandering endlessly without money and nowhere to go, she got to meet Qi Lian, who turns out to be in that world's Jiang Xiaoyan childhood bestfriend and sweetheart.
The drama was really good and definitely a catch. It was consistent throughout the 30 episodes with no dull scenes. This one if for those whose looking for a sci-fi, thriller, and romance packed drama. The setting was set on the beauty industry and it's complexities, which makes it unique and refreshing for me.
The actors are commendable especially Liu Haocun (Jiang Xiaoyan). For me, she totally nailed it down from the happy and casual scenes to fornlon and emotional scenes. Either way, the both Lin Yi and Liu Haocun are very great in portraying their characters. Their chemistry is always oozing whenever they appear together on the scene. It's like no forced romantic stunts from them tho they haven't really kissed on the lips throughout the 30 eps (they kissed one time but their lips where not shown to be really touching HAHAHA). For the supporting characters, I commend Jiang Bo and Feng Chenzhou as they did great too, no dull moments with these two on your screen.
For the plot, it really hook me up because of the time travel arc. As the story progress, it makes me want to uncover why did she dimensionally travel and how will she be able to return to her world. However, turns out the plot was super twisted in which I never anticipated from the start. I thought it was just the usual time travel story like any other dramas, but no, it was not. I didn't expect the twist and I personally liked how it got me guessing and leaving me dumbfounded whether guessed wrong. The story became more exciting for me as I uncover each pieces that leads to the very reason behind everything. Unexpected turn from the fantasy-like time travel story into a full blown science and technology thing *slow clap with jaw dropping*.
The soundtrack was solid. The cinematography was great. The leads have superb chemistry. The storyline was perfectly written. Overall, it's a highly recommend drama.
