I don't quite agree with the rest of reviews so here I am writing my own!
I started this drama solely because it's a short drama and the synopsis sounded interesting!
the acting is meh/inconsistent! (I would've called it bad if I hadn't seen worse!)
the dubbing is bad! lots of incoherent dubs which is hard to ignore.
fight scenes are not good.
the music is annoying.
ZhiZhi has one of those childish voice overs which almost made me drop it! thankfully she doesn't have much screen time.
The story/plot:
-it's a shame that we don't get to see why ml is so in love with fl! he is a heart eyed loving fool from the get go!
-Luo Wushuang's love for ml is as mysterious for me! Her outfits are pretty.
the lack of build up for all relationships has made it extremely shallow and I don't care who is with who!
the lack of chemistry between the leads didn't help either.
-too much "low budget gore" was used for a drama that doesn't know if it's a lighthearted comedy or serious one. (more details on the warnings at the end of this review)
-I think this drama needs a "comedy" tag, it's trying so hard to be funny, but it's not working for me. it's more on the cringe side.
-it got a bit boring midway but I pushed through and skipped some bits to be able to finish it. (I don't think I missed anything while doing so)
It's not unwatchable but it's not something I would recommend either.
**********************
!!!CONTENT WARNING!!! for those who want to watch:
It's not too graphic thanks to the low budget but there are scene such as:
*a hand cut off by sword flying mid air in ep4 and blood.
*there are some bits of torture scenes like throwing hot water in ep 6.
*unnecessary amount of blood spatter when someone hit their head to the table in ep 8.
