How an actor who has signed a"no physical contact" clause manages a Romance drama..
There is just something that puts me off from watching dramas of actors/actresses who are married.
This has been one of those,no matter how much i wanted to watch Bai Lu doing her things,but
Ren Allen being married doesnt help my delulu..so i kept passsing this one.When the dramaland well
dried up and there was nothing captivating to watch,I broke my own promise and pressed play.
I never saw the prequel One and only so i had no back story to fall on to but the FL's flashback memories
helped to understand that she was a "reincarnation" from the past and from what i red this prequel had a sad
ending that broke people's souls so it was good that the characters were given a second chance to live.
That aside,It is just a good drama,the creators did a good job to bridge both project without washing off the
historical setting.Its a modern drama with a histirical twist in terms of the storyline and the Set/architecture
The viewers who had wathed the prequel,could identiffy who is who from old to new.
Now here comes my pain,I and a thousand others.Ren Allen. a solid actor and to be honest I would watch him
again but not in drama with romantic tags.I though the "no physical contact" clause was a roumour but watching
him and the directors playing hide and seedk with anything that would bring him an inch closer to the FL,went from
anger to what in the name of all saints is this to now this is comedy.
It could have been ok if he was paired with a cold FL who has no personality but common,we are talking about Bai Lu
here,even her smile and facial grimace tell you that she is down to whatever..
Anyway I will going to go on and on,I have already recovered from this so lets just say that its ok to have these types
of boundaries on paper but it is also ok to send your manager a memo that says dont acccept romantic dramas.
Overall,It was a good drama my grievances are just from personal opinions.If you dont mind wathing a frustrated wife
with a clueless but smart nerd husband with green flag qualities,You will enjoy the SLOOOOOOWWWW BURN
