Okay I watched this drama because I was in a drama slump and I have to admit that this is my first Taiwanese drama. I honestly didn't have much exceptions and maybe that is part of the reason why I enjoyed this drama so much.

I've previously watched the c-drama Arsenal Military Academy and in terms of gender/bender this drama is so much similar to that. The story is about a girl masquerading as a boy and nobody knows except her parents and a cousin. The plot is fuuuuuuuuuull of cliches and I mean at every turn. You definitely have to watch this drama with an open mind because **spoiler the ML falls for the FL believing the FL is a male. spoiler ends** I think what I loved most about the drama was that this was sort of like true love where the ML falls for the nature of the person than the looks/gender. I definitely found the drama cringe-y and I had to shout at the screen several times "this is not how a man behaves with another man". And the FL really looked liked a man so you might feel like you are watching a bl drama. Some scenes were just so cheesy but they were hilarious too. PS I have to add that I just found the second leads story unnecessary and just skipped through them. They had all the usual troupes!

**spoiler: So they actually revealed that the FL is a female only in the last episode but the ML actually knew about it half way through the drama! This made me re-watch those episodes and I understood why the ML behaved the way he did**

And so like I said previously you need to watch it with an open mind and just for laughs. It doesn't have a serious story but maybe a moral. I would re-watch it if I needed some mindless fluff and for Baron Chen (hehe).
