Jeremy Xu looking so fine! Light romcom w/amnesia plot that’s refreshing…

I started this drama for Jeremy Xu coz i luv luv him in TAB… this drama however isn’t as good as TAB, but it has its moments that overall i still enjoyed it…

What i like:
- Jeremy Xu… he is a good actor n he suited this character… i like his comedic style, he is very funny as long as he doesn’t overdo it… n visually he is just so goodlooking, he looks so dashing in his modern clothes…
- The FL is a perfect princess, she looks gorgeous n i like her outfits in this (though it’s kinda questionable how a newbie actress can afford all of those?) acting wise she is ok, her character isn’t that complicated, so IMO she suits as MingWei/Princess n i liked her in this…
- The chemistry is ok, i enjoyed their moments… n ofcourse visually they look so good together… there r some funny cute romantic scenes n even some skinships+hot kisses…
- I’m not a big fan of amnesia plot, but they do it ok in this drama… maybe coz ML is totally dedicated to FL… i hate in a drama where the ML has amnesia n can be manipulated by other people, but not here, at least not the most part… there are maybe 2super angsty eps somewhere in the last third part of the drama where ML finally got his memories back n totally forgot FL, but it didn’t take that long b4 he fell for her again, in reality this time…
- Not that angsty luv triangle… SML is a good guy, he likes FL a lot but no dirty tricks, so when she rejects her coz she only sees him as a friend, he just accepts that, no drama… SFL is a bit annoying, she is ML’s childhood friend, so she tries hard when he has amnesia n tries to make people think that there’s something between them when he only sees her a sister, but it never works anyway…
- I really like the relationship between FL & her sis and ML & his agent/best friend… we all need that kind of loyal people in our lives that’s always there, stand up for us n support us in every way… n those 2 people r also the sidecouple, so an extra romance side story with a HE…

What i don’t really like:
- Jeremy Xu was dubbed! Like why? His real voice is so good!
- I wish they didn’t use the amnesia plot too long… honestly i prefer to see them together in reality instead of when he still thinks her as a princess… i know everyone wants to be treated as princess in a way so maybe that’s why they wanna treat us with this part, but hearing him call her “Princess” in reality for so many times somehow annoys me…
- The last 2eps of the historical drama, the drama they shoot inside this drama, were a bit of a waste for me… coz there’s almost nothing new in it, just that they compile the scenes they shoot n make it those 2eps… at least they give us an extra scene of their HE in that, but i think they could give us a bit of their real life after the wedding, like how they as famous celebs being together in front of people n what r people’s reactions to it… n also how FL got ML’s parents to approve her, we only saw how much his parents not exactly liking her in their interactions… just some montages in the end would’ve been nice…
- SFL is supposed to be a fashion designer, but she looks so bad… her style n her hair like what?

Overal i enjoyed it… if they had given us more time of them in the scenes together b4 the amnesia, it would’ve been much much better… the amnesia part was just too long n it kinda weird to think that in a way FL fell in luv with a character instead of the real ML (eventhough in the end it’s kinda explained that actually the character is just the real side of ML that nobody actually knows, so she actually luv both sides of ML)… anyway, if u r looking for a light romantic drama with some cute romantic scenes between really goodlooking leads, then u can try this out… i like it…
