This is a drama to watch while waiting for a great one to come. As other viewers stated, the first part of the drama is really nice to watch as the female lead cruises through her sister’s way of life as a celebrity and tries to remain true to herself. The female lead basically carries the entire drama and does a pretty good job alternating between the two characters that she plays. The “elephant in the room” is the choice of the two main male leads that need to work on showing the right facial expressions. Huang Sheng Chi (as Chen Mo) didn’t show the right emotions as someone deeply in love with Xia Mu and their romantic scenes fell didn’t stir the right emotions; the same goes for Hu Wen Zhe (as Song Ci) that had a creepy expression through the entire drama, but at least, had better romantic scenes with Meng Gui, which was really not a nice person after all. Also, the writer’s choice of turning the leading character (Xia Mu) into a cruel and selfish person toward her love interest was exhausting to watch. Overall, if the viewer wants to see an actress performing two characters relatively well, then try this drama; for the rest, it is not something to rewatch! Was this review helpful to you?
Crazy but it's not too bad
One set of twins with different personalities. Two love stories. Yep this is again one of those stories where a twin pretends to be the other.For about half the series, the shy twin (XiaoMu) needed to pretend to be the popular twin (YaoMengrui) who had an accident. The show then went ballistic upon the return of the popular twin. Audience now has to guess which twin is playing who. Though drama show that the twins clearly loved each other, misunderstandings made them doubt each other. It was only when all lies were finally exposed that they were able to have a better relationship and hope for better futures.
I particularly enjoyed the love stories of each twin. There were many times that both ML and SML seemed robotic in their acting but I can ignore all that because Zheng He Hui Zi had such great chemistries with both her leading men. I must be crazy because I found the popular twin's crazy love story more interesting. I also liked YaoMengrui more despite her dubious and calculating character. I know that she tried to harm XiaoMu but she believed that XiaoMu had hurt her first. She hides her insecurity behind confidence and aggressiveness but beneath her sarcasm and seeming indifference was her caring nature that's shown to only a few people.
I don't know why but despite it's cliches and almost predictable but still crazy story, I really loved this drama.

the famous twin sister is infuriating up until like the last episode if she had just communicated instead of lashing out at her twin sister they would have found out so much earlier. shes suppose to be the "smart" twin but in reality ambition blinds her. it makes sense that she was upset after finding out that her twin sister had been living her life. but she should have definatly reached out first instead of making assumptions. The plot however is very interesting i do however think it could have been written better. Was this review helpful to you?
Cute Love Story
The story is actually quite interesting and can get pretty deep at times. Some shows are all humor and light drama, but this one actually has nice, deep and serious moments which I like. It does have melodramatic moments as well as comedy. If you enjoy shows that is funny, but also delves into the story and the character development, you might like this one. There are funny moments, but also moments that make you tear up and feel for the characters.The main leads did a great job, especially the lead actress. She's very good with her facial expression and demeaner, which is probably extra hard as she has to play two different personalities (twins sisters): one with a cold, strong personality and one with a warm, soft personality. I think she did a great job portraying two very different characters!
The story itself revolves the entertainment industry and its drama behind the scenes. The story was a little predictable, but still very enjoyable. If you enjoy the "rich guy, beautiful girl love story" stories, give this a try.

i wasn't expacting this
this is of the hidden gems. a good drama with good plot and good pace. no draggy, no unnecessary long dialogs, and good casts.i wasn't expecting anything when i first started to watch it. i thought i would be just like any other romance dramas with overly done cuteness of the female leads. i was wrong.
this drama got me hooked since its first episode.
it has strong a character of female lead, which i like.
and i'd like to point out one thing that i like about this drama, is that it doesnt have second couple story. female leads usually have a female friend with her own love story and most of them are boring me. it only adds the unnecassary episodes to the drama. this drama is able to maintain its main story.
if you want a drama with the leads' full screen-times, this is it.
and i like the slow burn romance. it's good to build the leads' chemestry.
i really enjoy this drama. i binged watched it to ep 9. i deffinately recommend this drama

I think this series is suitable for those who are interested in C-biz. There are a lot slangs and dramas relating to the industry such as buying Hot search, Fandom, shipping couples, etc. It’s also very pleasant to the eyes because the female lead and male lead are very good-looking. What’s more, it has a very intriguing beginning with some mysteries waiting to be unfolded. However, I couldn’t keep watching the show because of the following reasons.
* DRAGGY PLOT
It’s so dragging. I had to fast-forward so many irrelevant conversations.
** TROPY SCENES
I was so fed up with all the staring-to-each-other-for-uncomfortably-long-time and falling-into-each-other-arms scenes!
*** ILLOGICAL SET-UP
I could only list a couple of things that got on my nerves:
The female lead always appeared with perfectly make-ups and hairs every time she fainted, woke up, went to bed, etc. Wouldn’t it be harmful to the skin?
It only took the female lead 1 extra course to get decent acting skill. Was it just me or acting is that easy to learn?
The male lead was a normal paparazzi but somehow he’s much more handsome than the super idol supporting male lead. How come he hasn’t been head-hunted by the star-manager?
**** SKIN-SMOOTHING FILTER
I don’t think I need to talk more about this problem.
***** ACTING
So the acting was not super terrible. The female lead was OK as the bad-ass big sister but she couldn’t pull off the soft little sister role – aka the main role. The male lead doesn’t leave me any impression except for his look.
In short, it’s not the worst Web drama I’ve seen but I don’t have enough patience to continue with it while there are soo many things else to follow.

Storia vista e rivista ma comunque piacevole!
Delizioso drama cinese anche a se la storia è ormai super scontata.Le due gemelle che si scambiano e dove la timida e riservata si rivela più brava del originale.Qui le due gemelle sono state divise da bambine si rincontrano da grandi e si scambiano le vite per un breve tempo.Nella storia c'è la storia d'amore,veramente cd ne più di una e sono molto carine.
Un drama piacevole e anche abbastanza dover con un po' di tutto e interpretata molto bene da attori belli e bravi.Nascono delle belle storie e il tutto e raccontato bene.
In certi momenti un po' lento ma comunque mi è piaciuto.Mi è piaciuto molto come nasce la storia tra i due protagonisti principali e nonostante anche il rapporto tra le due sorelle.
Drama consigliato a chi vuole qualcosa di leggero e tranquillo.
