A Classic Forbidden Love + Body Swapping
I've been contemplating for almost a whole week since this show ended about whether to write a review or not.
So, here it is.
*WHY YOU SHOULD WATCH LBFAD*:
1. I admit, the first and second episode won't get you pumped up to marathon this drama BUT don't stop, give it a chance. For me, the ML, DFQC won my heart since ep 9, but I've been reading that for some, they found it interesting from ep 3. So, clear your doubts away.
2. Prepare to fall in love with the cast and their characters. Their acting, is that good. Gestures, micro expressions, and Dylan Wang especially did it fantastically.
3. A decent plot story with two opposing sides and a third party that spices up their conflicts. After watching far into the story, you will find that actually there isn't a single purely bad character in this drama (except Taisui). Our ML can't feel emotions guys and he actually only wants revenge for his clan. Ronghao? He only wanted to get his teacher back.
4. Yes, we are still circling in the very same chain of 'Domineering and Bossy ML', but rest assured, DFQC will not bore you, you can get to see his cute side and vulnerable side, especially when the body swapping occurs.
5. A relationship that actually has very little miscommunication and misunderstanding. They lied to each other. But they also forgave each other. It's the "If we are gonna face difficulties, then we face it together" relationship type.
6. The OST will get you hooked. My utmost favorite is the opening song (and I can see that many people agree).
7. Bonus: You will become obsessed with DFQC.
*WHY LBFAD IS A LITTLE BIT LACKING*: (My explanation for this 9.5 review)
1. Execution matters. From ep 31-36 it's truly like a speed run. LBFAD really needs more episodes. Especially for the two sisters part, which I found a little awkward. You guys know Jieli right? Even XLH and Shangque need a long time to gain her trust, and then her long lost father and sister actually appeared out of nowhere right when she's about to die? And she just accepted it like that? I found her bond with Dan Yin questionable.
2. As a continuation from No. 1, the ending is unsatisfying (for me) I need more details. Like, so what happens next? Will the two opposing sides stop doing war? Will that darned Heavenly Emperor approve their marriage? Will DFQC stop being the Moon Supreme or is it XLH that will become his queen? (plus, we need more fan service for the ending LOL)
My advice : Prepare tissues for ep 30-36.
So, here it is.
