Unhinged Revenge Gone Wrong but Right!
My 10 years journey with Counterattack came to an end, a happy one. still remember the first time I came across this story the snakes, the adorable yet chaotic Wu Suowei, and the wild energy that stuck with me ever since. This revenge story with a mix of humor, light chaos, emotional tension and pain keeps you wanting more. The setup is wild but somehow works it leans into the drama without taking itself too seriously, and that’s what makes it entertaining.
The actors are fitting for their roles and their chemistry feels natural they did amazing. The dynamic between Wu Suowei and the doctor is a highlight their unhinged ideas and friendship had me laughing more than once with their hit or miss revenge schemes. Every character here pulled me into their world and perspective of thinking.
Chi Cheng, this wild beast with the softest heart, you wouldn’t expect that from him. Guo Chengyu in this drama is breathtaking; his forest is greener than I imagined, especially in the way he treated Xiaoshuai just perfect. And my lovely Xiaoshuai, his part of the story is so underrated. It’s the most painful one, and I wish they had explored it more, but everything was wrapped up neatly, so we’re good.
It’s also refreshing to see a storyline that flips typical romance tropes. Instead of a straightforward love story, we’re getting an unusual revenge, unexpected feelings all wrapped up in a way that’s still fun to watch. Shortly a messy love triangle but you can mix and match anyone with anyone! Honestly, it feels like this is the kind of BL I’ve missed for a while Chinese BLs coming back with that old spark.
Note:
-This series is dubbed if you didn't know or found something off, all Chinese dramas are dubbed by the cast or professionally fyi but they good.
-Make sure to read the tags for trigger warning.
