A Chain of Face Swaps
While looking for her sister, Shi Qi woke up to find her face swapped with Shen Qin using a dark magic and blackmailed by Shen Qin to take her place in marrying the powerful general, Xiao Han Seng.
Despite the peculiar plot of face swaps, there is an ample amount of suspense, romance, humor, and mystery to keep you hooked. The story was well-written and well-paced with a mind-boggling yet comedic plot twist in the end. Compared to other short web series, this one definitely stood out! The chemistry between the leads were also full of passion. Cheng Lei and Ke Ying delivered indeed. Cheng Lei stole the spotlight for me with his micro-expressions. I do wish they did Cheng Lei's hairstyle and makeup differently though.
A Familiar Stranger definitely made it to the top of my list in terms of short web dramas. This drama is the type of drama that you would start with no expectations but leave you hooked and engaged. A surprising find indeed!
