Story-wise, it was good. The concept of a traditional (ancient) counterattack against modern schemes was interesting, but the schemes were just too childish, and the schemers had no real oomph as villains. They didn’t feel intimidating or formidable enough to make the conflict truly compelling.
The only question I kept wondering about... 😅 was how no one got curious about how FL had been brought up. She was unfamiliar with so much modern technology, stuff, and even basic modern culture—yet somehow, no one seemed even the slightest bit suspicious or curious about it.
But I’d still recommend it for a casual, brain-off watch.
Native Title - Lie Ai 烈爱 2024 English Title - Intense Love / Flames of Passion Number of episodes: 72 Episode length: 2 minutes ML: Kwon Do Kyun 권도균 FL: Jun Jun (unverified — this is what I found)
Drama Summary After time traveling, FL completely changed her past image of being a submissive, downtrodden woman. She transformed into a beauty who ruthlessly dealt with scumbags, not missing a single one. At a banquet, she instantly fell for ML, the son of a richest man. Determined to find true love for her body's original host, FL began a series of proactive strategies to win ML's heart.
Too many skinship flashbacks... I was excited to watch this drama because DQX and SHN were collaborating, but I ended up getting bored with all the flashbacks
The plot was honestly way too fast 😭 Everything just happened one after another that I barely had time to process anything..They really should’ve slowed things down and developed the characters and story a bit more. Feels like they were so focused on getting the plot to the next point that they didn’t really explore the deeper meaning or themes of the story. There was definitely more potential there, but everything just felt rushed.
This version is so much better. All of the characters feel much more lively compared to the other versions. ML is also far more active instead of just being a background character. The story moves at a much faster pace as well. While some plot points develop slowly in the other versions, this version has already covered them right from the beginning.
FL's father is so cute... lol. He may not be a good father, but he never comes across as a malicious or evil one. 😂
The only downside for me was the last hour. It got a bit boring
I still prefer the child version. Since FL is played by an adult actress, the father-daughter relationship with ML feels a little awkward to me, even though she's supposed to be a teenager. The child version just makes the dynamic feel more believable.
Not great. I watched it to compare it with the other versions..🤷♀️ FL's a good actress, no doubt. I just feel like she always has that "about to cry" look 😭 It works for some roles, but not all. Sometimes it kinda throws me off and the scenes don't hit as hard.

Not bad! I like that it takes a different approach instead of relying on the same old tropes and character dynamics. It feels pretty refreshing. However, ML's tsundere personality towards FL is starting to get a bit exhausting to watch 😅
Really liked the reborn FL vs. the modern transmigrated antagonist. 👍 My only issue was that the transmigrator behaved more like a young teenager from the modern era, so her character came across as way too childish. 🤦♀️🤷♀️ The ending kind of lost me though—I got bored during the last few episodes.
I actually enjoyed this drama. The plot was smooth, easy to follow, and didn't drag. Although the sister clearly had bad intentions toward the FL and the family was the usual biased, frustrating bunch, the story didn't rely on too many over-the-top twists or ridiculous characters. The sister's screen time was minimal anyway, so she didn't become an overly annoying antagonist.
What I liked most was the 2FL (the mistress). Even though she's a transmigrator, she knows where to draw the line. She acts like a mature person from the 21st century instead of becoming an unreasonably evil villain. It made her character feel more believable and refreshing.
Overall, it's a light and enjoyable watch. Nothing groundbreaking, but if you're looking for a drama with decent pacing and less unnecessary drama, this one is worth trying.
My only gripe: The subs aren’t perfect… 😒 And there’s only one version/link.. 🤦♀️
