A delight and surprise!

I really had low expectations because I have seen the body swap trope failing so many times already in Asian dramas as there aren't many actors (especially young ones) with the proper acting calibre to pull it off but Zhang Xincheng and Liang Jie gives justice to their characters here and my favorite parts of the show are actually the body swap parts.

The best thing is that the body swap isn't mainly used as an entertainment comic source but also moves the story forward. Both characters are flawed but the way they are depicted makes you understand and resonate with their flaws. None of the main leads have a shallow back story, and even in times you disagree with their actions, you can totally understand why they do things that way.

Also Zhang Xincheng needs an award for that walnut scene. Classic and iconic. My favorite parts of the drama are when he plays Sheng Sheng.
