I've heard good things about this drama that's why I gave it a try and I wasn't disappointed. Apparently this drama was a sleeper hit? I'm not sure if what I've heard is true but it was really popular with the international audience.
STORY:
Imagine a world that is governed by women? Yes! Of course I would say that because I'm a woman and it would be fun to see that kind of world (but of course, we should fight for equality). The story follows Chen Xiao Qian (Rosy Zhao), a screenwriter struggling to finish her script in time for the shooting of the drama to start as she crosses paths with the arrogant actor in her drama who always opposes her script, actor Han (Ryan Ding). She struggles with finishing her script: lacking script, forgetting to eat (which is the reality of writers) as she also deals with the pressures of the production and the director. She then gets sick and transports herself in to the world she created. Yes, she was transported inside her script where she is the 2nd female lead, who was supposed to die anyway in the 5th episode? As she also sees Actor Han as Han Shuo the prince from a neighboring city where men ruled the world. This is sort of who is better ruling, men or women? You can see the partiality of both sides which was also not good since we should live in a world where equality is observed. Anywho, that is where the hilarious story comes about because she as the second female lead should've brought her sister, the real female lead and the male lead together in order for her to get out of her trance and finish the story. What's funny is that the story that was supposed to happen didn't follow the original tale due to the fact that the male lead fell in love with the second lead. The cast was on point and I really enjoyed this series. They really love their time travelling/other world travelling novels and drama and that entertains me a lot. The ending though. It was funny to see Actor Han having all the memories of Han Shuo in the modern world. If there was a season 2 of this drama, I hope that they get the same cast. I really do.
ACTING/CAST:
I really love the leads chemistry and they complement each other so well. Even the other casts were perfect for their roles. I hope Rosy Zhao and Ryan Ding get paired up again in another drama or better yet a season 2 please!
MUSIC:
There was this one song that I liked but unfortunately it didn't stick to me like the other OSTs of other dramas.
REWATCH VALUE:
I've seen this drama for 2 times now and if this was an underrated drama, I suggest you give this a try.
