The last taiwanese Drama I watched was Material Queen and it was lame and after I watched it my hype for taiwanese dramas was gone v.v. But then I read many positive comments about 'Someone like you'.
Furthermore, I like the storyline. But the story description is a little bit confusing, because he isn't blind at the beginning.
Story: A chaebol loses his eyesight and his lovely finacée in a car accident. After that he changed and because he feels he is at fault he refuses a surgery. He is complicated and have to hide his handicap in front of others. His best friend is searching for a new caretaker and so it comes, that a noisy woman gets the job. It seemed to be interesting because there are not many dramas with a chaebol who has an handicap. Normally, the chaebols are arrogant in dramas, but this drama has a male main Character who is hurt by his past and he is in deep mourning because of the big lost in his life.
Acting: I didn't know any of the actors before, but I am a fan of the two main actors. Mostly of Kingone Wang.
Kingone Wang acts a the chaebol who has a lovely family and loves his fiancée very much. I think he loves her more than his own life. I think it is very difficult when it comes to act as an handicapped person especially when it comes to blindness. Kingone Wang plays his role excellent. The cold man, who doesn't see happiness in his life anymore, but also a man who changed himself when he meet his new caretaker. I like him very much and in my opinion he is an wonderful actor.
Ren Lorene plays a double role, even though not for a long time. She plays the fiancée of Zhan Cheng who dies in a car accident and she plays the doppelganger Yu Xi. Yu Xi is a noisy woman, but I think she is very honest and emotional in her heart. But she is the opposite from Luohan (the fiancée). I am a bit mad, because she is very naive, when it comes to Li Boyan (played by Sean Lee) her boyfriend. Sean Lee acts as an cold and...idiotic villian (yes, I call him a villian), who makes me bad almost every episode.
Lei Nita acts as Ya Ti, the girl who gets Luo Hans heart. She feels like Luohan and her character is like her, too. But she isn't a typical second lead. You will know what I mean, when you watch it. Sadly I have the feeling she was more a supporting character than a main character, but maybe it is only my feeling.
Wei Lian (played by William Liao) is the best friend of Zhan Cheng who wants the best for his friend. He is the one who stands by his side all the time and wants tha most, that Zhan Cheng become happy again. He plays his role natural and very well.
In my opinion the supporting characters do a very good job, too.
Music: The Music is very nice, I think it suits the theme and also the characters. I like the opening song very much.
Overall: I will watch this drama again, but like I said before, I am a bit sad that the love triangle was different from what I understand when I hear the word. If this were a bit more in the drama, it would be get a 10 from me.
