My 3rd Cdrama and now my favorite one!
Okay, this was just my 3rd Cdrama but I am veryyy glad that I decide to pick this one up!
What I love:
-The acting! Ugh, I can go on and on about how much I ADORE both main leads' acting! This is my first time watching their drama but they are amazing in this one that I now have a strong urge to watch their other dramas too soon. Their portrayal when switching bodies was perfect, and very believable! And that is also what made the comedy in this drama successful bcs you just will never get enough of their chaotic life while switching! Their level of acting is very top tier that I notice even their voice changed when they switched bodies, and they did it so smoothly too, like they both really made this drama as good as it is
-Their chemistry is amazing too, like their shift of relationship from not liking each others gut, to slowly trusting each other, to being friend and then lovers, I really just love how well their relationship was portrayed without any awkwardness in between of the changes
-Their transparency in relationship, honestly this was the bare minimum lol, but it is indeed rare to see the leads having as much trust and communication in drama, and this drama have that. I love how they both would address what one think the other are feeling uncomfortable about, and they just keep zero secret with each other, which leads to no silly misunderstanding or whatever
-All the other side characters are lovely! From Tong Hua, Le Yi, Jia Shu, Sheng Sheng's parents and even Da Chuan, i love how each of them are so caring and kind, especially Sheng Sheng's father, I love that man so much, he gives me so much warmness.
-The comedy is top tier! Although the comedy was toned down a lil since they got together, I still very much enjoy most of their humorous part especially from the early eps, the one in particular that I love is when Sheng Sheng cracked Jiang Yi's walnut lmao that scene was goldddd xD
What I dislike:
-I dont like Jiang Yi's father, but honestly, who does? Like hes just an a**hole who lives off his wealthy son lol hes so annoying too. I'm glad this drama didnt make Jiang Yi make amend with him bcs honestly he doesnt deserve anything from Jiang Yi
-This is something very minor, but I kinda dont like that one like pop music ig that was played several times during some comedy scene, like that sound was so loud and unfitting lol
-The endingggg!! Ugh seriously, I'm bitter about that! But after reading people's comments regarding Chinese censorship well then theres nothing they can do anyway, so I would just act like that ending didnt happen lol voila problem solved xD
Truth be told I wanted to put the pacing in the dislike part too, but I feel like it cant be help that once their relationship become more serious, then the comedy will be toned down. Because personally I prefer the first half wayyy better than the second half of this drama bcs of the lightness and humor that it has, but at least I'm glad the plot didnt get draggy with many unnecessary plotlines or misunderstanding, so I still really like how this drama turns out
9.2/10
