Quirky and Fun

Worth a watch. If you like more lighthearted and cute dramas, this one is for you.

A very funny, quirky series.

The acting and sounds for comedic effect are a bit overdone but that makes this even more enjoyable as I love the over the top type cringe comedy.

There are issues with audio volume, quality and the separately recorded speech overlay/dubbing matching the timings but I didn’t really mind them.

The actors did really well to deliver their performances. I am especially impressed with the actor of Ding Junjie, who was still able to complete a scene when he had obviously smacked his head really hard against the headboard.

Certain plot points go a bit overboard and are not really necessary (the things the ex girlfriend does after the first time we meet her) but I applaud them anyway for trying to add drama.

Some scenes are beautifully done and the chemistry between the characters is fun and amazing.

There are also some obvious and also some more low-key nods to previous dramas.

For a low-budget drama made in a very short amount of time in a country where LGBT content is banned, this does very well.

I would, and have already, rewatch this series many times.
