I did NOT expect to love Love Between Fairy and Devil this much! This was my first time watching a Chinese fantasy costume drama, and at first, it felt kinda weird so much magic, fairies, gods, and all that. But once I got into the story, WOW, I was obsessed!

The soul-swapping curse is the most unique thing ever. Every time they kiss, their souls literally switch bodies! And on top of that, they can feel each other’s emotions and pain. Like, what?! I’ve never seen anything like this, not even in K-dramas. It’s such a fresh concept that kept me hooked the whole time!

And Wang Hedi as Dongfang Qingcang? OMG, he absolutely killed this role! He starts off cold, scary, and super powerful, but once he falls in love, WOW, the way he changes! The way he goes from an emotionless demon king to a lovestruck guy who would do anything for his girl… UGH, PERFECTION. Wang Hedi’s acting is insane, switching between a terrifying warrior and a clueless, lovesick man in an instant.

Yu Shuxin as Xiao Lan Hua is pure sunshine! Her voice, her expressions, her whole vibe, she’s the ultimate mood booster! There was never a single boring moment with her on screen. Now I’m officially a fan and need to watch all her dramas because she’s just TOO CUTE.

But… the one thing that made me mad? THE ENDING. Dongfang Qingcang dies, and then suddenly, in the last 5 minutes, he just appears again like nothing happened? It felt so rushed! They should’ve given us a proper explanation instead of cramming everything into 36 episodes. Such a waste because this drama was already so perfect!

But overall, I LOVE this drama! The story is so unique, the chemistry is amazing, and now I’m officially obsessed with Chinese dramas. Also… where can I find someone who loves me like Dongfang Qingcang loves Xiao Lan Hua? Asking for a friend. Hehe.
