Julia

Quite a disappointing watch. Basically, if you're not going to deliver a "passionate" romance as promised, at least give us a "passionate" plot. This show unfortunately had neither. Any interesting plot point that could have been explored (the whole thing with Luzhou's mum, Luzhou going abroad, for example) was dropped immediately, resolving any tension and taking away the intrigue with it. The FL, at least in my opinion, is not a bad actress and she actually had a nice chemistry with Wang Anyu, especially in more comedic parts. This chemistry, however, would evaporate instantly in romantic scenes and that is probably the biggest issue here. This is supposed to be a romance drama, after all, and no amount of good acting is going to change the fact that they just couldn't deliver on the promise of "passionate love", despite Wang Anyu trying sooo hard. The second lead couple was actually more fun to watch ngl
