Criminally Underrated
This drama is criminally underrated. I also went into it mainly to watch Zhang Linghe, but I was genuinely surprised by how it kept me invested throughout. Despite the complexity of the plot, it still manages to stay light-hearted, especially since the antagonists can be funny and unserious at times.
I’m especially in LOVEEEEEEEE with the second couple (Xu Nian & Guan Qian Ya) because their chemistry was intimate, deep, and intense. They had real depth in both their characters and their arc. Guan Qian Ya was so strong and independent, and her chemistry with him was absolutely wonderful. They were so good that words honestly can’t describe how I felt likee I loved them so much. And it’s not just because I’m a Zhang Linghe fan, but because of how beautifully their characters were written, depicted, and presented. Their storyline pulled me in so much that I could feel every moment, almost like I was transported into their world.
The main leads (Lu Xiao & Jiang Ke Le) were good too. Their story was nice and cute. I really loved the Jiang Ke Le; she was adorable at times. Watching her humorous, cute side here, especially after seeing her more badass role in Moonlight Mystique, was actually very refreshing.
Now coming to the plot—it was fantastic. It completely hooked me till the last episode. There was always this sense of uneasiness and eagerness about what was going to happen next and how they would leave the Bay House. It was incredible. I literally stayed up till 5 a.m. watching episodes because it was that interesting.
And the plot twists OMFG, don’t even get me started. They were absolutely perfect. The second leads’ first meeting turning out to be part of the game (and that too one-on-one user) was mind-blowing. Then the early revelation that the boys were real humans trapped in the house, it set the tone so well. But the biggest twist in episode 30, when it’s revealed they were still inside the game, was insane LIKE I WAS BEING BRO WHATTTTTTTT. The transitions and plot development were so smooth that I never even guessed it could be a possibility. The twist about Xu Nian being Xu Guang Han’s son was also shocking, And then the AI robot twist, wow. Just wow.
I loved how, in the end, everyone got their own happy relationship, it was so wholesome. Not to forget, Xu Fu Shun was amazing, she was perfect. Even the whole mouse-and-cat chase dynamic added so much excitement.
Overall, everything about Love Crossed was amazing. Its take on existence, identity, freedom, and humanity was genuinely thoughtful, and the drama is actually very well written. Even the OST , sung by all four of them, was beautiful.
I’m completely in love with this drama.
