Swoony mini-drama with perfect amount of comedy, angst, and great OTP chemistry
For a mini drama, this was a gem! One of my favourites so far and up there with A Familiar Stranger and The Killer is Also Romantic (same FL) among the best short-length dramas.
I'm very picky when it comes to comedy, but a lot more forgiving with these short ones, and for the most part, the humour worked for me in Si Shi Hao despite some of the anachronisms. The pacing and story telling were also well done and the production quality was solid. The main couple had great chemistry and the ML's love for the FL was a great blend of swoony mild angst. Importantly, the ending was satisfying and complete, and did not feel rushed (especially for a short-length drama).
Highly recommend this one if you are looking for a drama fix, but don't have time for a big 40-episode binge session!
