Good pacing, ML and great premise/concept but wasted on corny acting from certain cast members.
Writing this in 2026 might not seem fair, but this drama aged terribly. I love games and I watched this show because I love the premise, and I think the story delivered. There were a lot of sweet moments but the acting from the female cast is quite terrible which breaks my immersion. Both Zheng Shuang and Mao Xiao Tong are gorgeous, but Yang yang's passionate kisses are totally wasted on Zheng Shuang given that she acts with the open eye shock and zero response during their alone-scenes.
The wardrobe team also doesn't do a great job but I will not fault them on this since fashion and drama style changes.
Production quality is pretty ok, and cinematography is a pass. The acting at times are sometimes over the top (especially from the females), and it's a bit cheesy and corny to watch since no one in real live acts like this.
This is a personal take, but I also was quite uncomfortable with how emaciated the FL looks :(
It's hard to give this drama more than a 7. I found myself struggling to get past the next 10 eps. I still think the pacing and plot is not too bad, but this has unfortunately not aged well for a 2026 watch.
