Despite the hot kisses, antagonist outshined both FL & ML
I came across this drama when it was newly released. A reddit user requested for link and I got intrigued. I watched it within a few days of its release and gosh I have mixed feelings about this drama.
What I liked:
1. Antagonist - I must say that antagonist outshined both protagonists in this drama. His arc is more compelling that FL’s arc and FL-ML relationship arc. He is even remorseful about his cheating so I appreciate this character growth.
2. Acting - Great performance by Aorigele, the actor playing the second male lead (SML). I would rewatch this drama just to see Aorigele's scenes.
3. Kisses - 🔥 Plenty of hot & heavy kisses. I even find Aorigele's makeout scene to be hot!
4. Styling - I must say that I love the outfits worn by Cheng Cheng and Aorigele. Love the horse riding outfits for all four characters!
What I disliked:
1. FL characterisation - I find FL a bland character. Her only purpose in this drama is to "teach" her chesting ex a lesson - there is nothing about her career or individual backstory. Yang Luo Qian’s acting is underwhelming.
2. ML characterisation - Cheng Cheng did the best he could for this drama. His character is severely underwritten and to me, ML is a tool for FL to make SML jealous.
3. Romance - I don’t sense any emotional intimacy between FL and ML. I was surprised by the subsequent scenes after FL reveals that she has faked the amnesia. FL and ML never talk about the fake amnesia, fake identity and their relationship.
4. Poster - The poster I saw first is the version with Yang Luo Qian sitting and Cheng Cheng standing next to her. I believe that the English title reflects SML’s perspective. Therefore Aorigele should have been included in that drama poster and received main character credit.
Favourite scene
When SML was remorseful and begged for forgiveness
