Bijou

I watched this drama and for the adaptation nothing could beat this version. The age gap looks so real but somehow it fits the drama. The chemistry between the Feng Ming Chao and Meng Na is excellent. Their kisses are emotional, logical, and psychologically engaging.

For simple plot, FL was being orphan and raised by the ML. They appear to be siblings, but are not actually related by blood. FL has secretly loved the ML since childhood, and he has always doted on her, seemingly waiting for her to grow up. So overall, it's very sweet, with no angst.

Meng Na was truly beautiful; even that hime-cut looked good on her. She could be both cool and sweet, very sassy when dealing with scumbags, and very sweet when facing ML. I liked her when she hugged ML it was very naturally cute.

Feng Ming Chao was too thin but he seems well-suited for this type of aloof, domineering older man. His acting skills, having experience in long drama are unlikely to be bad. And his real-life as a father also lends him an edge in portraying older characters.

Supporting characters are just so-so. The various villainous female supporting characters and extras in the short drama are nothing special, but there aren't any particularly bad either.

This is obviously on-budget drama but the acting was decent to watch.
