No romance, only action fantasy
Watching for romance stayed because of fantasy plot , just skip this if you are here for romance the first half doesn't show romance in good way FML will always forcely kiss ml everytime that's sexual harrasment and she doesn't multiple times those scenes are so awkward and embarrassing,one sided relationship and when they're finally mutual there's not a single kiss scene? are you serious? just why add romance ? the fantasy story was good,I got hooked up I was going to drop because of mo romance but stayed, the ending is good but not satisfying? why is she dressed as pearl but called xualing I don't understand? All characters were good, fantasy also good just could've add little bit normal romance in this ? the 2nd half is full on only action fantasy that'sit only 1st half they're more together later they're either fighting or dying ,
STORY IS GOOD BUT NOT SATISFYING OR TO BE REWATCHED

Good
i dont watch these types but tried watching I continued because of comedy in the start but in the end there's drama not comedy, wish this was only romcom , but it has history and crime , comedy was good in this , at the end I almost quit when fl is stupid enough to follow childhood friend than love ,then they suddenly cover it by saying she did for his protection? romance was too less according to me , only in the first few eps the romcom was good later , just drama ,crime, history, action etcWas this review helpful to you?
Good one
This is much better than other devil drama I watched , I liked the story and characters , the romance was off,forced, rushed to me , i liked the comedy in start , romance part was good but not satisfying, ending is good too ,glad it's happy ending ,in middle I didn't like it , like all chinese drama I always prefer the first half of CDRAMA the 2nd half always gets worse, boring, dragging, I wish future CDRAMA are shorter I have to watch it in 1.5x not knowing when I will quit

do not recommend
i have to say I really liked the first 9 episode the plot should continue and romance should be slow, but no they just randomly suddenly confess ,so I was like so many eps still left they already confess and kiss what are they gonna show? the story becomes just ridiculous 😂 are you serious? i actually decided to quit at 14 something because the focus is neither romance or comedy but just work work work ? continuously? so I got bored and end it and came to see reviews no wonder everyone thinks the same I skip at 14 so idk the end I checked now the story is absolute nonsense 😂😂😂 are you wasting our time showing story like that? ,if the first 9 eps continue till mid and slowly the romance starts it could've been better, completely ruined a good plotWas this review helpful to you?

No slow burn
story is really good from start gets you hooked, I was actually going to drop at 4 because there's too much side characters and FML ml don't really have interaction but it became good after that .romance - In story where writer want to focus on career ,you can just write one without forcing romance on the leads, it feels forced and random, atleast 90%cdrama like this , they never show the romance genre in a way it should be ? it's like they're forced to add it, I watch only for romance so I dislike this, there no slow development or romantic interaction at all just randomly liking eachother or decided to be couple without really mention clearly or confessing, I have no issue with story like this it's just that they shouldn't add romance tag to it so I don't waste my time, you add romance and then force the lead into couple, I watched this without reading reviews I was wrong.
ML FML both are really good,

Time waste
Starting is good plot is good goes downhill and romance is random and looks forced from FML at 15 she suddenly confess him ? girls you dislike him as bf from 1st eps keep denying now suddenly confess? FML is really dumb chases childhood friend gets betrayed and still talks to the friend who did that ? and ml is so good boy is trying from 1st ep to get her like him she keeps rejecting him for no reason? she's dumb enough to like the friend but not like ml ? ml did so much but she won't budge she will keep rejecting him, avoid him ? I'm bored of this it's already half of the eps and nothing happened and ml and his friends literally all dumb they give only bad ideas to him, watched because of her but dropping because of herWas this review helpful to you?

good
start- Got me hooked from start really like itwhat I like-
comedy
romance
all characters
no 2nd couple
no unnecessary drama
what I dislike -
1. could've have been a little slow burn even though they get together in remaining last eps after 15 + , it felt fast for me and they already kiss many times because they switch because of it
Romance - they already kiss before dating because that's their way of switching back to normal, for me I prefer slow burn and even if kiss scene are few or just 1-2 It doesn't matter there should be romantic interaction , but this one they already kiss too many times before dating, I have seen similar drama that FML has some issue and ml has to kiss her because of that ,but that couple had enough interactions and it was slow burn
2. the switched body parts was way too long , they were normal less and switched body more ? that doesn't show their real interactions then ? i was really annoyed when around the confession they switched because it was important part and finally they were normal ,but they switched again and too long and author would bring FML back exactly at time of confession, which ruined everything for me ? there's was no slow burn ,no real interactions, more falling in love in other persons body ? so I lost interest after they started dating so decided to drop at 20 and skipped after confession
because I enjoyed so i give it a 8 even though I'm dropping this, because still better than many drama.
3. start and middle is good but I started to dislike the plot of switching souls because they stay in that way too long ? and when they're finally normal started to like eachother I wanted to see more but it ruined by switching them again so dislike last part

no romance
i watch romance focused only so I'm dropping this, this feels like just school drama, freindship focused than romance till 15 there were no interaction romance related at all, the leads are just friends, I thought slow burn so continued watching but already at 15 so I quit I thought like other drama it will switch to school, University then job, but it's school only, it was nice to pass time but I watch romance only as I'm adult I want to avoid highschool love dramas but because of low options i watch themWas this review helpful to you?
Just plain
Plot is good so had high expectations , but the interactions continue to be like friends and roomates than lovers , it was like friends were forced into relationship, there's no development but randomly confessing out of nowhere ? they're good as friends,as lover the story doesn't seem interesting I don't care if they're couple or not and even after they did I still don't care ? there's literally no signs of liking eachother? i watched until the random confession with 0 development and the story suddenly moves to crime and more side characters after 9,10 epswhat I don't like
0 chemistry between ml fl more like roommate, friends than lover
creepy 2nd ml , boring 2nd couple
why chinese drama don't use any lip colour for men ? the ml is normal but the other guy in black looks like ghost and sick, colourless lips I have seen in so many CDRAMA? are they hiding the real colour or thats real colour?
there's nothing annoying in this story could've been better it feels plain and boring later,I don't feel happy or excited for couple obviously when romance is forced

70s problems more than romance
i like it In start thought it will be slow burn romance I'm at my limit dropping at 20what I don't like
1.no romantic interaction at all
2.no slow burn
3.random and forced relationship,and romance
4.ml has crush on FML is clearly visible but FML is not interested in him at all from start till end, he is only friend for her, it looked one sided crush always but suddenly they kiss ? that forced into relationship without any development?
5.ml and FML suddenly get married so I thought now their story starts but no ? they're only focused on career or FML family members that's it,
6. story focus more on life in 70s , problems in 70s than romance, romance is non-existent
7. annoying 2nd couple? why would there be 2nd couple when there's already so many side characters? I felt 2nd couple part or romance totally unnecessary
8. FML wants to get into University but she faces so many problems so many times I'm was fed up ? i was like now now she might get chance but till 20 nothing
9. ml feels dumb sometimes, he is really good still
10. FML and ml both unemployed, or FML work in factory the pay is less I think ? FML got out of parents house so she can focus on carreer and her brother can come home ? any problems solved? no .
i thought maybe slowly both will succeed but , ml got job really late and pay is less I think and FML is still working in factory.
10.alot of annoying people the main head female who denies FML application, another villian ml saved this women but this women always from start till 20 creates problems for fml ml, another not that much but gets in the way of FML she is ml friend
11. the story is full of problems but there's family moments, slice of life kinda.
I'm bored,it's repetitive, no development in romance at all

Childish and controlling ml
This should be enough reason to reject this drama I can't believe they're ending their breakfup part so easilyMl hides the fact he is her online friend and doesn't tell even after dating keeps texting her from 2 account one online friend other like her coworker, landlord now when she finally finds out instead of apologizing he keeps getting angry on her instead, drags her back to his home and tell her she can't live on any other place ? seriously? i was still okay they're getting back together already? he is literally a scammer liar ? Ml character is wrost I'm dropping this drama I was watching because of Esther can't watch it because of ml
first of y'all don't know how long CDRAMA takes to match kdrama level, before I didn't like the actors or the story now actors are good story still bad ? why 1.FML chooses trash company to work ? literally no one helps her there and they're poor on top of that ? that short hair 2nd FML company was better than her's and now that she decided to work in trash place both ml agree everything she says and agree for low pay? seriously? i know that the 2nd FML company had abandoned the 2nd ml still they didn't do something like coming in his way and ruining the work ?
2. 2nd FML is too boring the 2nd couple or side character whenever they talk I skip, and watch only the 2nd ml interaction with main leads
3. ml is too childish her forces her ,scams her,lies to her ,hides things from her
4. his personality is not that good but FML is in bad situation living alone no money and parents don't give her if someone is helping her even if he is deceiving her it's up to her if she's okay with that if she's trying to survive then you have to get help from anyone and he doesn't ask for money or makes her do work other than cooking
5. from 1-5 and till 19 the eps and interaction, etc is same nothing new she keeps asking him like she did in the start for work
6.comedy is good
7. ml is her online friend,crush, landlord, boss ect ml hides the fact he is her online friend,and he knows she is the online friend and keep texting her from other account everytime she ignore him, I wanted the truth to come out before dating so they make it completely dissatisfying by making reveal after dating and now they breakup,I really disliked ml for hiding this ,she should avoid him atleast 2 week a month but this will be short , i didn't expected it too be that short

historical problems than romance
start - the plot everything was good, comedy characters I wanted to give it 10middle - good same as the start
romance - was slow in start then suddenly fast, random,forced I can't believe people rating it 10 ? this kdrama felt same as cdrama, ml clearly started liking her ,but FML wasn't interested in him at all ? they didn't show anywhere how she started liking him too ? she's suddenly mutual? from slow it felt fast and rushed - I don't mind because everything was good, the slow burn part should've been a little longer? they get together too fast and early I think ?
last - worst part from 7-8 I think ,when I saw the contract I did felt it will leak , it really did ? here comes a loop of problems where the couple just got together and they divorce already? or story focus completely on historical problems , so for 2 whole eps they were doing everything to slove this problem, I lost interest ,the drama was already short why create problems � i really liked it in start , I just decided to drop because even the romance wasn't completely satisfying for me, they did deceive but why no one find how it leaked? and the FML friend is actually supporting the villian ? the sister in-law father tried to posion ml and that friend hides it seriously?
the issue here is only with writing it was a 10 from me before 6 after 6 I it dropped

BAD FML
POOR WRITTING I can't believe people will rate this 7.9? this proves audience is dumb and will watch anything?whenever ml behaves bad for little controlling, forcing women hate it now when women does it ,it's okay?
she forced kiss on ml ? that's sexual harrasment ? who wants to watch FML like that? and she treats ml bad and doesn't accept rejection? i was okay until this happened? you can't force someone into relationship? now ml who doesn't even like her will magically fall for her ? her behaviour and attitude towards ml is very bad

heartwarming/realistic
too good really cute couple, I avoided this drama because I'm adult and dislike highschool genre, but it was really good it's good to watch innocent love between highschool students sometimes than watching adult romance always which has too many kiss scenes.their relationship looks more realistic , nowadays the hesitation, shyness, holding hands,hugs etc these small things are disappearing in drama and they go for kiss first?
what I like
comedy
side characters, all
romance, not overly romantic like adult people drama but innocent type of love
their relationship looks more realistic than most stories that feel fiction
not entirely focused on romance but friendship more less romance, I don't mind it
FML is really is bit bad towards ml in the start because he follows her alot and all the time ,and being an introvert myself I can understand how much we dislike, people try to get close and friendly when you just met, so she always rejects him,and draws a line has boundaries I should say ,I felt weird at first because it was too much because ml clearly was good to her but followed her too much, later I found out she rejected (only communication, interaction I mean not confession) him because she met a trash who gave her trauma, so that's why she didn't let ml get close to her in the start, but this is how highly introverted girl actually is , which is not shown in any drama , I was shocked why she accepted him and they started dating soon , but it was really cute only kdrama can write proper romance start till end. ml goes extra level to please her. about confession part ml liked her instead of being friends first he confessed her already? and she accepted? i didn't expected that because she clearly didn't like him but she probably like - I'll try dating him ? and their relationship get's better later
what I dislike - all of them use curse words alot all the time, I'm shocked because in old kdrama I heard none , zero, they will beep at them but now , all curse words ? even subtitles for them ? no beep at all and saying it's 15+ ?

good
many dislike because of ,ml career or not depth to the characters, first of all 90% cdrama don't show a proper slow burn romance? or chemistry? i drop many just because of this ? this one they don't show how much FML liked him in past, but it's slow burn ,they have romantic interaction before and after relationship, they have healthy relationship,love isn't forced random or fast ? atleast they show how romance actually should be , ml career scenes were unnecessary and too long you have to skip it, most high rated cdrama don't even have a proper romance or how it should be , many cdrama has good background plot but focus is always other things? other unnecessary things in cdrama are villians, side characters,2nd couples,drama etc you need drma like this when you watch too many like the one I mentioned above where romance is non-existentWas this review helpful to you?
