Nan Heng you beauty! (writing this when I am gripped by a character crush)

Biased take: Nan Heng is the best. I love him. He was made for me to love him and by virtue of gravity I did.
The Female lead is for Nan Heng to love but Nan Heng is mine.
Shitty review but I just can't articulate my love for him.
He's epitome of beauty and by beauty I don't mean his looks just everything that man is including his acting.
I'm bored and I'll probably not remember him after a few days but I love him this moment and I know this review or this won't age like wine or this won't be the best review and that this review will shape me and everyone who reads it in somewhat a better light for Nan Heng but i don't wanna measure my words too much or overthink my decisions. Maybe I should but I can't help it. Just like so many drama's I have watched with characters I absolutely love but don't remember anything now I don't want to forget him. He has lots of flaws but I'm okay with it. I wanna be delusional coz he's super cute. The side characters were okay some were cringe sometimes but their crime was forgivable (not to mention ML and FL were too sweet for someone as sweet as me too). Our second male lead did great acting but he wasn't in the modern world so that was an missed opportunity. Also some scenes could be cut they but overall the show wasn't dragging so its cool.
I disliked the ending especially the modern world one, like we had to have a better ending with something real coz Nan Heng emerging from that cgi portal was sad it broke my heart. like damn scriptwriter you could have just removed that part where he magically appears from a portal. like was it super hard to let me be delusional for a few days until I forget this.
But NO! you had to make it seem like this really was a dream and that Male Lead in the real world is just an actor.
Anyways was a great drama and a lesson for many cdramas to create sensible plots and believable characters with great chemistry. Bye.
