This review may contain spoilers
all that roundabout and slapstick
I was full excitement to embark on this drama. I saw the trailer and I was stoked. I was waiting in anticipation for it. When I was done with "Prisoner of Beauty", I went straight to this drama and gosh, … I was disappointed. It was saddening to feel disappointed (to be honest) as I wanted to enjoy this drama.
I saw a title from one of the reviewers which said (on the line of) "for LYN fans" only. I concur.
I watched the first episode eagerly but, it was sort of a let-down.
First, I went from Wei Shao in "Prisoner of Beauty" to this role here and it was a huge disconnect.
Second, the female lead seemed quite inexperienced and raw to me... especially when I went from Qian Man to this actress.
Third, the premise was not a fun watch for me. I went from the intrigue of "Prisoner of Beauty" to the roundabout-quite-a-mess plot (to me) and I just did not have the patience to ride it out. "Prisoner of Beauty" was excellent. I loved the acting. I loved the intrigue. I loved the suspense and the riveting plot.
Well, as you can see, I did not fail this drama at all, so please don't bash me for it. We are all entitled to our own positive/ negative reviews with our own justifications. I do think it'll be a good watch for his fans. I do like him but I'm not in his fandom (yet). Thus, I gave up the roundabout and decided to embark on something else.
Salut!!
