Even though Moonlight (2023) is a very good miniseries, the subtitles and OST copyrights take away from the flow of a nice story. The leading man, Fei Ming Xuan (played by Chen Xin Hai) is about to marry Fang Min (played by Kay Song) believing that she was the girl that saved his life and kept him company through his darkest time, a case of mistaken identity which he realizes when he meets Su Xiao Xiao (played by Ke Ying). The two friends, actress Fang Min and her stuntwoman Su Xiao Xiao join hands to bring down Fei Ming Xuan to stop his arranged marriage to Fang Min who is in love with someone else. As Su Xiao Xiao gets involved with Min Xuan, she starts to realize who he really is and, after her boyfriend Tang Song, who was using her to also bring Min Xuan down, betrays her, she starts to get closer to Min Xuan and, eventually, they fall in love. This drama was good but, with a bit more time, it would have been better. The cast did a nice job bringing their characters to life and the leading couple has very good chemistry that got better once they got together. This drama is nice and entertaining.

Another good mini drama
I actually find the director that directed “A familiar stranger “ very good.Although he is not listed for this drama, I am sure it is him. In either episode 1 or 2 , he dropped in scene from “A familiar stranger”, a drama which I adored and have re watch a few times.
This is about a mistaken identity for a stuntwoman who often do stunts for a famous actress.
The romance between a rich business man looking for the lady that saved him years ago when he had a temporary sight loss.
There are also another plot brewing with 2ML and 1ML. Both are good actors and eye candy. The 2FL is also from “A familiar stranger”, so far her character at ep 6 is innocuous.
There are lots of chemistry between 1ML and 1FL…..So far the interactions are interesting but nothing steamy. However the story has lots of twists… watch this and I am sure you will enjoy it.

A Disappointing Waste of Time
Totally disappointing drama.I watched because of the director and his work with A Familiar Stranger. This being billed as any kind of 'part two' to that drama was false. This had nothing to do with the first drama, which was perfection.
The FL was unconvincing as any kind of kick-ass heroine, and I found only very tepid chemistry between her and the ML. The story was weak and boring, and I fast forwarded through a lot of it.
I have watched A Familiar Stranger over and over, and will continue to do so, but for this one, don't waste your time! Once is enough.
