Unexpectedly good
8.5/10 is my rating. This is a 2018 Chinese drama with 24 episodes that are 45 minutes long.
He Xie (Lin Bo-Hong) has a hit manhua entitled “Crystal Love”. Over time his control of his own creation is fading as he fails to come up with new content. His publisher is on the verge of having other authors publish stories under the title when He Xie is involved in a car accident under a billboard of the villian Lu Zixing, (Li Hao Fei) from his manhwa which results in him being sucked in to the story. He finds out that he must turn the evil villainess around and plug the many plot holes in his story in order to return to the real world. Lu Zixing likes the male lead of the manhwa, Gong Cheng (Huang Jun jie), and to change the end and the characters, He Xie must keep Lu Zixing away from Gong Chen so the romantic interest, Pei Encai (Huang Yi Lin) can win Gong Chen’s love. He Xie forms friendships and falls in love in this world of his making but finds there are consequences to staying.
Spoiler ? I unexpectedly liked this more than I thought I would. I am not a huge C Drama fan because I find many of the female leads to be kind of whiny and needy. For me that was the Pei Encai character - she had some moments where she was okay but most of the time, I just found her behavior irritating. Not the same for Lu Zixing she was spirited and took action when it was needed. I would have loved to see her together with Gong Cheng because he was so sweet that I could see the two personalities balancing each other well. I found the premise to be really unique and it held my interest to see how things would resolve and develop. I liked the friendships that formed and thought all of the characters were really well developed. It ended well - I like when things are "wrapped up" but I did not completely understand what had changed enough for him to stay. But I liked that he was able to stay and it did not end leaving you hanging or on a note of sadness. For a Cdrama it is one of the best modern I have seen and I would recommend it. I still prefer Kdrama though so it rates below the best Kdramas I have seen for me.
