Remove the alien plot and it's a typical rich guy poor girl story

Yes! The headline says it all. After watching so many supernatural character drama and the drama itself being very hyped, I had so much expectations from it. But... Sadly it didn't reach my hopes.

After watching first romance and crush I became a fan of Wan peng. This actress can really make such a great chemistry with her co-stars. And she didn't disappoint me in this drama too. I could feel their chemistry and become lost in their scenes.
But that is the only thing that helped me get through the drama.

One thing that I want to say is, Wan peng is a good actress and she creates really great environment around her co-stars but she really needs to work on her kissing scenes. In every drama even though she looks great with the ML but during kissing scenes, she does not cooperate at all. Same thing happened in this drama as well. Thassapak Hsu really tried his best but because of her not cooperating, those scenes didn't come out as good as their chemistry. If she tried just a little then I am sure they would have made fireworks in my heart.
So sad, it didn't happen.

Now back to the drama,
The drama was very promising at the beginning and I really enjoyed the first 9/10 episodes. And then it began it's journey to the waste.

If the scenes of Xiao Qi using her powers which covers very very very few scenes is removed, the drama becomes a typical rich guy poor girl concept drama, where the girl is thrown away millions of times but she just doesn't have any dignity and has to shamelessly cling onto the ML. I was hoping the plot would develop later using the fact that she is an alien. But No! When she is required to use her powers she just can't use that! Then what's the point of making her an alien!

I will say that again that, Thassapak Hsu and Wan Peng had great chemistry. But when it comes to the story between Fangleng and Xiaoqi, it was actually a headache. I literally lost count how many times they were together and how many times they left each other. At one point their relationship looked like a toxic relationship to me.

Acting wise, every actors did good job with their acting including the side characters. I have to point out the acting skills of Thassapak Hsu. He is such a great actor. He really can make one immerse into the scene. When I saw him crying, damn I cried with him as well.

It's just my opinion, the writer didn't write the story in clear mind. With the aimless back and forth of the main leads, I started to lose interest in the drama.

I would have rated the drama more less, but since I love both the main leads and their acting, so I had be a little bit biased.

There are talks about a second season of this drama. Honestly I am really excited to hear the news and would love to see them together again. I just hope that the makers will make a decent story this time and will not disappoint me.
