The show that began my Jeremy obsession.
I am a sucker for love/hate relationships so when I saw this one - guy gets amnesia, falls in love with girl while he thinks he is a character he last played - I knew I had to give it a shot.
Jeremy Tsui is perhaps one of the overlooked gems of Chinese dramas. He has the ability to play a serious role or a comedic role. He is perfect for the role of a rude, broody, handsome leading actor. When he spies the object of his desire - or the muse for his next drama in a hanfu on the side of the road - he knows he must have her. However, he is shy and his demeanor around women is somewhat cold. When he parts ways with her after they finish filming, you see the first of Jeremy's ability to 'cry' or show emotion. Then the car accident and you see the comedy bits, all while keeping a straight face he does ridiculous things as if he was from the past in the modern world. He has a brilliant voice and sadly his voice was dubbed for this one. But, his acting overall is top notch.
His actress, the one who plays the inexperienced but adorable co-star in his historical drama fits alongside him perfectly. I was able to enjoy her moments of shyness, growth, and frustration that translated into love for her co-star and the role he assumed after the accident.
There are gorgeous, steamy moments that have to do with glances, touches, and then finally kisses by Jeremy. One of the best kisses comes when she is shaving his face and she legit straddles him. The music is sensual, sexy and he makes his leading lady look like she has hooked a winner of a guy.
The overall story is spread into the following:
- First 7 episodes is meeting one another, followed by filming
- Next 7 are the car-accident and obsessing over his 'princess'
- Next 7 are him falling in love and what they do
- Next 7 are regaining his memories, figuring out what to do with his 'love' and if he remembers his memories
- Next two are the show finale
- Final two is the movie they filmed together and you see it in its entirety complete with the ending
I really recommend this because you go on a roller-coaster of emotions all thanks to Jeremy's acting and what our leading lady goes through.
