Cute sweet romance with some laughs
If you want a quick watch that will make you smile, this is a cute romance vertical drama with no brain but definitely some sweet comedy.
Song Wan hides behind a child-like persona while searching for her mother's jade pendant in order to prove she has rights to manage the Big Company. Per usual with vertical dramas there is a rushed marriage between her family and the hero, so she ends up in a marriage of convenience to wheelchair-bound Lu Ting Sheng.
Honestly, why you should watch this drama is because Song Wan is hilarious. She enters the Lu Ting Sheng's house wearing a Mario onesie and a chicken purse (the chicken purse is adorbs) and the hero leans into her wild silly antics while always treating her well (their interaction is the entire reason to watch). The outfits her and her girlfriend wear are over the top; I love the oversized black and white coat too.
A hilarious scene between the FL and ML is when they are telling each other they will divorce. Whenever their back is to the ex-boyfriend, they blow kisses to each other. Another funny scene is the competition between ML's secretary and butler - more of that please.
Of course its filled with the typical tropes: the childhood savior, the screechy sister (thankfully who asks for forgiveness in the end), the fiancée who fools around with said sister, and the evil stepmom. How the hero regains his ability to walk is laughable (not in a good way). The story doesn't bring anything new to the table.
Thankfully, the trope it does not have (which raises it a star for me) is the grapey drug that makes someone so hot they must be saved (which seems to be just a reason for non-consensual intimacy). This is rather important because Song Wan is posing as someone who acts like a child and if Lu Ting Sheng took advantage of her after their marriage I would have thrown my phone.
I watched this on IQ (US) so I think the subs were okay. The story does have plot holes and inconsistence episode to episode transitions that are a bit irritating. A little more physical romance (after they revealed their secrets to each other) would have also raised it a star. Add in a little more careful production and it would have been a 9 star for me.
