Peak main couple chemistry, but not much else
Interesting premise that was never brought up again after the first episode. That said, this is an okay drama that you only really watch for the main leads’ acting and chemistry. The 7 stars is generous and it’s mainly for them, tbh I wouldn’t have watched this at all if I wasn’t already in love with Zhao Lusi. The writing is so ridiculous that it’s hilarious how cringe the dialogues are, you don’t even get annoyed atp you just find yourself cackling with laughter.Was this review helpful to you?
Cute and fun drama good for passing time
If you plan to watch this show, go in with low expectations on the plot and writing.A cute and fun drama to watch when you’re in a slump and can’t decide on what drama to be emotionally invested in next. Interesting premise, light-hearted comedy but relatively heavy angst compared to most romcoms, depending on how much you feel for the FL (Ji Man). She’s this headstrong female lead that is determined to make a name for herself in business, but had to live under the shadow of Nie Sangyu’s (her twin) evil past after she lost her memories and their identities were swapped. Actress did great in portraying the feeling of intense guilt over actions you didn’t even know you did (and in reality didn’t) but people are pointing fingers at you for their trauma. I really felt for her.
Overall plot and writing is relatively weak, and the main CP’s chemistry was mid. But the acting of the main leads, the comedy and fluff, Ji Man’s story and Ding Yuxi all made it worth watching for me. Ding Yuxi’s expressive eyes can convince anyone that he thinks the actress he’s playing opposite from is the most beautiful woman in the world, so the romance works. I think I can watch him pine for his love interest anytime. He has the best “I’m in love” gaze from all c-actors I’ve watched.
I don’t really have much motivation to continue and finish this drama right now because I’ve already had my dose of fluff, but will probably pick it up again some other time.
