I absolutely adored it.

Firstly, I'm super amazed that the drama is so close to the novel. Really, all major events that are important for the stroy were included! Less important stuff, fillers or elongations were cut or shortened.

You could say the drama is shorter, cleaner and softer than the novel, making it less frustrating lol. It totally kept the essence (and more), making it a worthy adaptation of one of my favorite novels. I love both, novel and this drama, equally. 🥰

So the story is about a guy who wants to take revenge on his ex gf by seducing her current bf. Yeah, you're asking now: who would even come up with an idea like that? None other than our MC, Wo Suo Wei! hahaha.

Wu Suo Wei one of the few characters I actually genuinely find funny and fun to watch especially. All because of his dramatic ass being stubborn and scheming. 😂 And I must say, Zu Yi portrayed him very well! I could see him come to life! Such a delight!

Of course I also loved our Chi Cheng 😘. Tho I found him less intimidating than in the novel. But that is not criticism. Just a remark. Tian Xu Ning did also amazing here 🥰. They matched so well together anyway. <3

I read some people thought the acting wasn't that good (especially of the 2nd leads), and I can't deny it. But it didn't bother me. In this case, I was too absorbed in the story to care. 🤷🏻‍♀️ The transitions to black were a bit weird ansd I'm sure there were other flaws. But I was mostly blind to them xD

I didn't notice much about the music either. No, I didn't watch on mute, if you're wondering.^^ The music was fitting, but didn't get a spot in my summer playlist - for now.

The quality and cinematography were really good imo. Especially the coloring of the club scene or the very last scene. Or the setting of Wu's old home. They all looked very pretty.

What I love the most about the story, is Wu's development, or 'his road to gay' if I may call it like that hahaha. From "I won't ever be together with a man" to "I can't live without Chi Cheng" is quite a long (and beautiful!) way. It's so fun how he tries to get Chi Cheng attention while trying to keep a physical distance at first. And Chi being irritated but very interested haha.

Packed in such a gorgeous comedy, the story doesn't get boring and keeps you entertained throughout. Of course, later there will also be sad parts, hurtful parts and serious parts. It catches almost all your emotions one after another.

Chai Jidan did another amazing work with this one. This and Addicted are staying in my heart rent-free forever. Thanks ❤️

Now, let's go rewatch hahaha! ;)
