what was that?
i’m genuinely confused by the high ratings on this drama. for once i don’t feel like i watched the same drama everyone else did. i understood the concept of the drama and what story they were trying to portray, but honestly it just wasn’t good to me. the acting is all that saved this drama for me, but i definitely couldn’t rate higher than a 5 in my right mind. even 7 eps felt like too much.. the format of one character’s backstory per episode also really dragged it for me. and don’t get my started on the r*pe we just ignored.Was this review helpful to you?
A bad car crash?
I would like to start this by saying I really need to stop letting tiktok influence my drama decisions. Had I not seen a clip of Xicheng eating food out of Yanxi’s mouth I wouldn’t have started this drama.Time To Fall In Love is like a bad car crash, you know it’s bad but for some reason you can’t look away? I originally was going to drop it 3 episodes in because there were too many slow-mo scenes to count, but the ML made it easy to keep watching. (Lou Zheng carried this drama on his back. )
I don’t want to make a long drawn out review, but this drama had so much potential and was ruined by lackluster writing. I kept waiting for it to get better, but in the end it just disappointed me. Not one trope was done justice. Don’t even get me started on how horrible the Fu Boya and Nangong storyline was, or how a certain someone’s death was blatantly ignored.
Overall I gave this drama a 6 star rating because Lou Zheng’s acting and appearance made it a lot easier to continue. I definitely don’t recommend this drama, not even to pass the time.
