The Chinese BL that Bit Me & I Love It!!!
I just loved Revenged Love! It's that classic enemies-to-lovers trope which I’m a total sucker for but with a fresh twist. The whole snake element is actually so cool (even though I’m lowkey terrified of snakes, haha 🐍). The tension and intense stares when the main leads first meet? Chef’s kiss. Their chemistry is off the charts, and the side couple? Also surprisingly good!
Honestly, the cast has such great chemistry that you could mix and match them, and it would still work. The main leads are adorable on their own, but together? Next level. Wu Suo Wei trying so hard to insert himself into Chi Cheng’s world is hilarious like bro even learned how to breed and raise snakes just to get closer to him! At this point, I’m not even sure it’s about revenge anymore.
And his attempts at seducing Chi Cheng? A total fail, Chi Cheng ends up seducing him instead! It’s chaotic, funny, and weirdly addictive. I think Suo Wei doesn’t even realize he’s already fallen for him. This show just gets how to keep viewers hooked.
The cinematography is absolutely stunning something I wish more Taiwanese BLs would take notes on. The production quality is clearly high, and the acting, especially from the actor who plays Suo Wei, is top-tier. He’s effortlessly funny. The OST? Absolute perfection.
While the concept isn’t new, this series is definitely well executed. Chinese BL dramas really hit different, and Revenged Love is a game changer for sure. It’s a bit long though, so I’ve been watching it weekly instead of bingingsuper rare for me! But totally worth it. This show lives up to the hype, no doubt.
Updating my review since it has now ended:
Although Wei Wei and Che Ching look adorable together and their chemistry is absolutely palpable, this series is far from fluffy—and definitely not for the faint of heart. It’s a roller coaster of emotions filled with heartbreaking events.
I’ve read so many comments from viewers saying they skipped Episode 18—the breakup scene—while others admitted they got so emotionally affected that they couldn’t bring themselves to watch any further. The story is full of misunderstandings, miscommunication, and two people who are both victims of their circumstances.
It’s also a morally grey relationship. For me, while Wei Wei’s character is endearing, he’s also manipulative at times. I do feel the ending was a bit rushed, but I still loved the mix of emotions this series delivered—the angst, the joy, the sparks, and those fleeting moments of happiness.
The chemistry, emotional depth, and authenticity didn’t just make the story believable—they made it unforgettable. Revenged Love gave us Che Ching, Wei Wei, and the rest of the supporting characters we rooted for, cried with, and, yes, sometimes yelled at (with love).
Overall, Revenged Love is a masterpiece. It wasn’t just a story—it was an experience that touched hearts, sparked conversations, and left a lasting impact on its audience.
