BONKERS
well intended love was the first chinese drama I ever watched.it contains almost every trope ever in the history of everything...
kidnapping? contract marriage? hypnosis? drugging? fake cancer? mean mother? abusive father? poor girl rich man? ceo of company? all that and more!
you were never bored - and honestly some scenes were quite suspenseful and exciting - female love rival did some wild things but it didn't matter, the villain was unhinged but entertaining
MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD
when i found this out in episode eleven... everything changed...
the cancer was fake!?! u should’ve seen my jaw drop when this was figured out
renders their whole relationship into this creepy mess where the power dynamics are completely out of whack - when we found out he had like secretly loved her for ages i was like hUh
in general their relationship is extremelyyyyy toxic and abusive
disliked that aspect a lot... at least they gave xia lin enough independence and sense for him to leave him for at least a bit (very bare minimum i know but at least they didn’t say... moving on! her pain and suffering was acknowledged)
the memory loss really annoyed me - felt like an attempt to pad out the plot
tldr: hectic
