If you enjoyed this drama please tell me why?
Wow, the most contrived and toxic drama I have seen yet. Recycled over done plot points and filler. Absolutely toxic of all toxic relationship between the main leads. The first episode seemed like it could be cute and magical. But it just flopped and got worse from each episode to episode.I think they were trying to recreate 'Till the End of the Moon'. And yeah, this was just not worth watching.
Things I can say that are nice... Joseph looks great in his costume. I liked that they used a different voice actress for Bai Lu's character. (I do like Bai Lu, she is a great actress... but she is just in everything and I'm kinda tired of her).

Can't stomach lead actress in rl - this is not a hate review
I love this story. I love the setting. Beautiful scenes and shots. Script is great. I love the characters that are written. I love the cars. I love the costumes/clothing. I love He Yu for this role. He is just perfect for it and a 10/10 with his acting.But I can't seem to get past how much I don't like Esther as a person. And I've watched a lot of her interviews and variety shows to try to get to like her. I enjoy cutesy girl characters like this role and I get why she was chosen for this part. It's b/c she plays up this type of thing up in rl and I really think it's very fake.
I Try not to hold it against her that I don't like her. An actress can create a facade however she wants. But public opinion can have repercussion on a person or drama.
I'm trying not to hold it against the drama. She is playing the part, she is pretty, she can act. But she is also playing the role she always plays.
Unfortunately, I am dropping this drama. Everything else is so great.
I'm bummed. It's just so gag me to see the cutesy I'm innocent act change to all the sudden 'I know how to fix cars'. And 'I can drift' and getting on to the motorcycle in skimpy clothes but totally emitting the vibe that I'm cool and used to it. I think I wouldn't be so gagged if it wasn't Esther. I do actually like the trope if the drama is done right.
If you don't have a problem with Esther I think you will really like this drama. I just can't get into it.
