Kissfinity

First reason to watch this...Cui Yu Xin...He's steamingly hot since I watched him on Liars In Love.
Second reason to watch....if you're so into hot kisses...just dive in.

Other reasons: none. I am definitely not a fan of Dystopian trope dramas. I never watched The Hunger GAmes, Divergent, Insurgent or even Squid Game. If you're into these kind of things, well, congratulations! you're so in for the ride.

I basically shut off my brain just to enjoy the kisses and seeing Cui. I honestly didn't enjoy lots of things here, like falling off from very high places without breaking a leg. Having a dragon as your ride. A pool battle with an octopus. Even the death of the FL's brother made the story more complicated given those time travels using your dreams. Like, WTH.

To add more, the sound track, like, did they pay royalty to Britney to use Toxic with their own version? Even the song All The Things You Said was used which they gave a different arrangement and lyrics. but, you can clearly hear they used these songs.
The girl who's singing the main track sounds like BOA.

I'm not a fan of the FL. Have seen her in Embrace In The Dark Night. Still that timid acting. She was good at kissing though.
Yes, the kisses were good...but, that's it! They were all just kissing. I was hoping for more intimacy and steamy scenes in bed. Oh well, they'll just entice you to it and then you'll see nothing just the ML lying top naked.

Overall, it's just a 7.5 for me. The kisses were good, specially that train kiss scene and all the cuddles. But, that's it. It has nothing more to offer. the plot is all over the place. And yes, that title is just a drug that I didn't even understand what it's for. Even those viruses that will just make you want to exchange saliva with another.

Still love Cui Yu Xin and will look forward to more of his dramas. Hope he gets a good full lenght drama next time.

Lastly, 40 eps is too long for a crap story plot. 24 will be just enough I guess.
