QAS

Was the actress acting badly, or is the character supposed to be dispassionate? She is stiff and cold.

I felt that way from episode 1. This is like those K-drama melodramas from the late 1990s an early 2000s.

Even though they appear to be dating when he first enters the episode at the art exhibit, she doesn't seem to be committed to a relationship.

He's a narcissist..but ML is one as well. LOL

I watched the drama on the Youtube channel, and noticed gaps in the subs.

I looked at this drama because I recognized the ML from Side Story of Fox Volant. After watching a handful of episodes, I have no empathy for the ML, FL , 2ML. They look very egotistical, presumptuous, narcissistic, manipulative, controlling. When ML acts like an arrogant a&&, I want to slap him. When 2ML smirks, I want to slap him. FL seems to be vacillating between ML and 2ML, and this is in the first episodes.

ML tells FL that he is going to UCLA, and tells her to go with him. He has made all the arrangements for her education. WTF! It doesn't even look like they are in a relationship. He has a big head. The only thing that makes him looks like a great catch, is that he must be a billionaire student, running a corporation. 2ML likes FL, but he treats her like s^*t. He has no respect for her, and wants her to love him? WTF! Dropping the drama.

Is the killer, Chenying?

I watched ep 22... only eight more episodes to go. I can't wait for these episodes to drop. Shen Shiyan is my favorite character. I hope the writer didn't kill him off.

I think the same about two Wu Yus being in one dimension.

I have been suspecting Boyfreind for a week. He seemed a little obsessed, based on his interaction on the boat with Miao. Actor has two character names in the credits, so that looks very suspicious. Is Boyfriend schizoid?

Does anyone suspect Wu Miao's boyfriend as the serial killer? He might be cray cray. Did any attacks happen after Boyfriend killed himself?

I finished Familiar Stranger in one day. I love the ML and the Bad Boy Prince. Thanks very much for the drama hint.

That front door worries me. She opens the door for anyone, and it doesn't look like she locks the door any time of the day or night. The lock looks like a bedroom door lock, not a front door lock. A killer could stroll into the apartment easily, and burglars could kick the door in.

CRY is the most obnoxious, clingy, manipulative female.

This is a cute short drama that I bingewatched in one day. I love the general and the bad boy prince.

SFL was very pretty, but evil. I don’t understand her motivation to be evil. FL was weak, then strong, then weak. Prince Ning's acting range was wide. He was evil, good, evil, etc. I don’t know his motivation to be evil. It would have been nice if Fake Shi Qi and Prince Ning had redeemed themselves instead of killing themselves at the end.

Poor Military Avisor needs a girlfriend, or a new job. How many times did he say, "I am a Military Advisor"? That got old very quickly.

General was the MVP (most valuable player) of the plot. He didn't waffle like Prince Ning. Fake Shen Qin should have told him the plot at the beginning. The swtcheroo with Fake Sister and Evil Shen Qin was confusing. Fake Sister was stabbing the Masked Cosmetic Surgeon to death in the final episode. I guess he did not know how to fix his own face. If I feel like it, I will convert this comment into a review.

Final rating 8 out of 10!

😅😅😅 The two strangers at the very end looked like fake Shi Qi and Prince Ning, pretending to be commoners.

The General and Ning could have played siblings. 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks for the recommendations. I started watching Familiar Stranger.

Happy Birthday! I have followed him since A Good Day for the Wind to Blow in 2010... the old days when I used to watch 173 episodes. LOL He looks ageless, and still handsome.

I loved watching Lee Jae Yoon on Cool Kidz on the Block. Congratulations!
