Background Show
Blandest couple award goes to the main characters, Wei Wei and Xiao Nai! This was basically the POV and world of the benefits of being pretty - the two main characters were beautiful, smart, and pretty much flawless in every way. The main girl is basically a Mary Sue (and same goes for the main guy too tbh).
My other problems with this show:
- Internal monologues, where we could hear all their thoughts but their real conversation is only like 2 sentences between each other
- No real conflict to speak of, so if you want a background show that doesn't require much thought, this show would be perfect for you
- Wei Wei has no personality, and is basically only there as Xiao Nai's pretty sidekick girlfriend, and Xiao Nai is constantly calling after her like a dog (this sounds terrible, but the way he always tells her to 'come here' or do this, and not making it as a request really reminds me of someone calling for their dog lol)
- The acting for the two main leads were wooden and unnatural, I really couldn't get into it lol
I almost dropped this show but I really have an inability to drop shows unless they're absolutely terrible so I stuck with this until the end. Maybe if I was 10 years younger, I would have enjoyed this more.
