Have you ever wondered what a self-contradicting drama would be like? A mature, immature, funny, tear-jerking, lovable and heart-breaking drama; This is what Le Coup de Foudre is like. I have seen Janice Wu act in several dramas and I am immune to her charm. For some reasons, her characters no matter what she plays, don't get through me. Except for THIS! She absolutely nailed that innocent-but-not dumb character effortlessly (or as it seems).
The storyline is very typical. The drama revolves around the love story of the smartest guy in the class and his dumb seatmate. But the beauty is not the in plot, but in the lovely characters, their lines, the lessons, the feelings it brings. It gave me memories that don't even belong to me. Each character has so many colors and layers, they are very distinct yet I found myself relating to them, as if their happiness and pain were my own. The characters made me laughed, wept, fell in love, broke my heart and fell in love all over again like I was experiencing them for the very firs time.
Most of all, the drama is a rare treasure box filled with precious and valuable lessons. It smartly addressed taboo topics such as bullying, domestic violence, divorce, abortion and family issues not to change our views but to bring awareness. They are not excessive nor impolite, they are just there like a part of the story yet they would find their way into your heart
