Transmigration

Honestly it's a really good show and I highly recommend watching it if you're interested, but I'm tired of China doing the transmigration plot where the MC goes to a historical world and falls in love and then comes back to the modern world where they meet the person they fell in love with again and then it ends, no continuation or even a little extra something, like an romance arc in the mofern world. That aside, the cast all has really good chemistry with each other and the plot is very interesting, you will 100% wanna commit murder on some of the characters whilw watching but that just means the actor/actress is really good at their job. So if you like romance and angst and historical setting then it's definitely a good one to watch. ?

(MAJOR spoilers) {Seriously, DO NOT read this [if you haven't watched it]. You will hate yourself}

So I didn't know what to expect when I clicked on the video and began watching. I thought it was just another Chinese costume drama but boy was I WRONG (fyi, this is my first review ever!). The very beginning of the first episode was just meh and then Mr. Han came into the picture flying up and down trying to explain to Xiaoqian that her script wasn't that worthy. And then she went home and rewrote it and fell asleep waking up in Chen Qianqian's body. It wasn't to spectacular at the start but it gradually became better and better (and of course it has it's flaws but we're not talking about those). This drama decided to nestle itself amongst my top 5 Chinese dramas and I'm not mad. I might actually re-watch this again. But enough about that. What REALLY snatched my heart and really got me was the ending. The ending of that drama will forever be remembered, especially since I cried happy tears. If there isn't a second season I might actually die. My favorite ending out of all the dramas I've seen, the BEST ending I've ever seen. Han Shuo "coming back" (they just dreamed the same dream) with Xiaoqian and them being in love and Xiaoqian and Han Shuo not having to hurt because the other is gone, that's the best part (the fact that they still have each other I mean). The cast was amazing and they all played their characters beautifully (my favorites were the people who played Zirui, Su Mu, and Yuanyuan). Anyways, if you did actually click on this review and read it then you really should watch it. Don't just go along with what other people say and watch it yourself then come and judge it. This is definitely the best Chinese drama I've seen all year though.

Something About this Drama Just...

READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!! THERE'S SPOILERS!!

So, I've watched this particular drama 3 times and I'm genuinely about to go watch it a 4th time because just something about this drama names me keep coming back to watch it. This was the first Mike Angelo drama I completed and my very first Zhang Yuxi drama ever.

I love their chemistry and I love how Jiang Mian Yu dresses in a bear suit in order to help Lin Xing Chen when she's down.

I personally adore Zhang Yuxi's character who works hard to get recognition and be perfect because it shows the watchers that the more you struggle to be something you're not the more you will lose yourself which gave birth to Lin Xing Chen's "princess syndrome".

I also quite enjoy how the female lead is the rich one and the male lead is the poor one because it turns the tables and doesn't follow the rich man x poor woman trope that I see in practically all the dramas I've watched so it was very refreshing when that wasn't the case for this drama but the opposite.

All that aside I highly recommend especially if your looking for something light and fluffy that isn't super long but you might end up being sad that it's only 16 episodes and not more like I am. I also highly recommend watching Dear Prince which is part of this series kind of, beware of cliffhanger though, it still makes me mad and I still think about it at night, like why you gotta do that to me?
