Don't get mad at me for comparing it to 'The Double', because in my eyes, it's a huge compliment. I just got familiar vibes from this one, and some scenes reminded me of 'The Double'. First of all, this is a solid story that makes sense, doesn't have major plot holes, and works cohesively, which is not always easy to achieve. However, I think everyone can agree that the chemistry between Li Yunrui and Meng Ziyi is fantastic. I feel like I haven't enjoyed the acting and chemistry between two actors that much in a while. Maybe it's the story, maybe it's the actors, but they really just did so well in making us root for their love story. I was so emotionally invested. If you liked Li Yunrui before, you're falling in love with him in this show. He was made for these kind of characters, and I would watch him play this kind of character, episode after episode. Meng Ziyi always plays a badass, and she's great at being an absolute queen. Nonetheless, there were times that her character annoyed me, which is a personal problem, so whatever. I don't love characters who always think they're right all the time, so that sometimes ruins things for me. But overall, I was emotionally invested in this couple in a way I hadn't been for a while.
