Story:
This story was so weird to me? The FL believes she has a curse where her confessions will always fail (she's confessed like 30 times by the beginning of the story) because of something that happened when she was a teenager. (Which when you watch the actual "memory" happen, you realize she had ZERO to do with the situation, minus being in the vicinity.)
Fast forward to the actual story, you have the FL who wants to become a store window designer, the ML who is a TV producer, with major insomnia, the SML, who is overall a rich, attractive, good guy, and the SFL, who is kind of a badass, but is a bit ridiculous when it comes to guys.

The plot was pretty standard, modern romance. Nothing that really stood out to me. What mostly doesn't make sense to me is that the FL originally really likes the SML, but when he starts reciprocating, she just . . . doesn't . . . anymore? It just wasn't really addressed more than just her saying "I just don't like him that way" even though she was super into him when they first meet.

Regardless, the SML doesn't turn into some evil, bad guy (which I thought might happen when they revealed his true identity), but actually stays a good guy who helps the leads get together. Same with the SFL. She could've been a liar/backstabber, but they kept her a good person as well. The actual story wasn't super memorable to me really. It was really just a pretty standard C-drama, again a bit unrealistic, but not terrible.
Characters:
Overall decent job. Bridgette Qiao was basic cutesy FL, no major acting achievements. Timmy Xu was the best part for me, I think. He did a good job showing the different parts of his character and kept it fairly realistic. The SML and SFL were also pretty good also. No one that annoyed the hell out of me.
Rewatch value:
Not something I'd ever plan to rewatch. It just wasn't anything super special or unique. The chemistry wasn't that amazing either, so no specific reason to watch again.
