A well crafted love story always have my heart <3
This is the kind of drama which I want to forget soon so that I can re watch it with the same enjoyment I did the first time.
The story feels similar to Pride and Prejudice. Our FL Qian Wei having prejudices against Lu Xun for always been on top even though technically he did nothing wrong. On the other side we have ML Lu Xun who is totally in love with Qian Wei yet his pride never let it show to her directly. I woo at such kind of romances (this noona's heart likes what it likes, no regrets) and thus if you do too then its a totally recommend watch for you.
I love how QW was sassy, smart, cool and witty. I remember a scene in Ep 4 where after she time travelled, where her ex (whom she had met recently on this timeline) apologized to her for lying and she coolly goes "Its okay. I know you are expert at lying" had me rofl. The blatant sarcasm she used against the 2 guys for making her life worse were hilarious.
Lu Xun being the alpha male was good at everything he did and his longing for QW had me ache for them to be together. Like every romance drama have a mandatory drop where the leads breakup for all sorts of nonsense reasons only to get together, this one was different. Because it had LOGIC. I totally got LX point on why he never wanted to be a mere rebound or for her to love him because he did some nice things for her. He wanted her to see him and love him for for the way he is. Hats off to the story for being able to communicate this in a coherent matter to the audiences. I often find this sort of articulation lacking in other dramas.
The swap from the past timeline to current one made sense. I won't spoil it for new watchers, they never took the "physics" approach getting into alternate realities, parallel worlds, 5th dimension etc etc. The reason was simple and satisfactory for me.
Despite me loving the drama so much, it wasn't flawless. The best friend scenes felt average to me compared to the overall show. The ex scenes with the CEO was totally worthless and I skipped it guilt free. The ending few 3-4 episodes were mere filler and totally makjang -ish. You can quit the show when the leads get together around 27-28 episode (i don't remember the exact episode).
Hope you can enjoy it the way I did..!
