I Wasn’t Ready for This Drama to Be This Good!
Let me start by saying—I had zero expectations going into this drama. I was just here for Li Landy’s newest project, hoping for something enjoyable. But what I got? A drama that pulled me into an emotional rollercoaster I didn’t even know I needed.
Sure, there have been a few new dramas this year that gave me tingles (Grab Your Love and Study Group comes to mind), but nothing has hit me quite like this one. I’ve been waiting for that one drama to completely absorb me, to make me feel something real. And this? This might just be it.
1. STORY — I'll only spill the story until Su Miao, you can watch the rest on WeTV or any other streaming platforms ;]
At first glance, the plot might seem simple: two people, Tang Qi and Su Cheng Cheng, who knew each other in the past, meet again as adults. Back then, Su Cheng Cheng had a crush on Tang Qi, but life took them in different directions—she abandoned her dream of becoming an athlete and pursued a career in beauty products, while Tang Qi became one of the co-owners of a start-up.
Their reunion at an alumni gathering takes a sour turn when Tang Qi casually calls her ugly (which, let’s be real, is a crime I still don’t forgive). The once-admired image she had of him instantly shatters.
But then, something magical happens.
On her way home, she buys flowers from an old lady, who gives her a mysterious bracelet. Su Cheng Cheng thinks nothing of it—until she saves a little boy chasing his balloon. In that moment, her entire appearance changes.
Tang Qi witnesses her act of kindness and falls for her at first sight, completely unaware that this woman—whom we come to know as Su Miao—is actually Su Cheng Cheng.
From that moment on, Tang Qi becomes obsessed with Su Miao, determined to win her over. He convinces her (unknowingly, his long-lost crush) to become the face of his brand.
At first, Su Cheng Cheng uses this opportunity as "leverage," playing along while keeping her real identity hidden. But as Tang Qi falls deeper, she starts questioning—does he love her because of her appearance? Or is there something more?
When Su Cheng Cheng’s sister (Su Qing Li) and best friend (Lin Yuan) decide to erase Su Miao so she can live as her true self, she witnesses something unexpected: Tang Qi’s complete devastation. He doesn’t just mourn Su Miao’s disappearance—he blames himself for losing her. And in that moment, Su Cheng Cheng realizes—Tang Qi truly loved Su Miao, not just for her beauty, but for her kindness and personality.
“That day... I didn’t even see her face. I didn’t know what she looked like, yet my heart was racing. For the first time, I understood love at first sight.” – Tang Qi
2. CASTING
👉 Tan Jian Ci as Tang Qi – Perfection. His performance is so immersive that you can feel every emotion—his jealousy, excitement, confusion, heartbreak, and love. He embodies Tang Qi in a way that makes you forget you’re watching a drama.
👉 Li Landy as Su Cheng Cheng – First of all, let’s address the real crime here: how is anyone calling Li Landy ugly in this drama? Unbelievable. That aside, she plays Su Cheng Cheng flawlessly—capturing her struggles and emotions perfectly.
👉 Supporting Cast – From her sister (Su Qing Li) to her friend (Lin Yuan) to Tang Qi’s friends (Gu Yu and Zhou Jin Li), everyone fits their role perfectly. Plus, the chemistry between Lin Yuan and Gu Yu? Adorable.
👉 Su Miao & Fang Jin – Since I’m writing this review while episode 15 is the latest, I’ve only seen two of Su Cheng Cheng’s personas, but they are fantastic. Each persona still feels like Su Cheng Cheng while maintaining distinct characteristics.
3. MUSIC
The OSTs are mostly playful, especially the opening and ending themes. While they may not be the most memorable tracks ever, they fit the drama’s overall theme perfectly—balancing humor, romance, and heartwarming moments.
4. REWATCH VALUE
If you’re like me, you’ll find yourself replaying certain episodes just to catch all the small details you might’ve missed the first time. The humor, the emotional beats, and even the subtle character interactions make this one worth revisiting.
I’ve already rewatched some episodes while waiting for new ones to drop, and I still find myself laughing at scenes I didn’t notice before.
5. FINAL THOUGHTS
If you love dramas that mix romance, identity shifts, and emotional depth without being overly complicated—watch this now.
It’s fun, emotional, and full of moments that will make you smile, cry, and scream into your pillow.
For now, I’m giving it a solid 9/10. But depending on how the story progresses, this could easily go either way.
My only hope? That it keeps up its amazing pace and delivers a satisfying ending. Please, no pointless fillers!
If you haven’t started this drama yet, do yourself a favor—go watch it. You won’t regret it. At least I didn't 😊.
