If you are willing to suspend your disbelief and accept the "convenient" setting of some scenes, you will likely find this light and fluffy rom-com highly entertaining. The events that followed after the female lead switched to her alternate personality were often hilarious and unpredictable. With comedic moments like those and many others interjected at the right time, this show is a good pick when you don't want to watch something intense or be that emotionally invested.

I think the show would have benefited more if it were a couple of episodes shorter since I found the pace in the middle just a little draggy, and they overplayed the "third party threat" theme. To me, there was some melodrama that felt more like filler episodes. I am not a fan of angst-filled scenes that last more than 2 episodes when it comes to a rom-com. Still, the angst factor is low overall.

The chemistry between the lead couple was good, and they played off each other well. The progression of their relationship was delightful, despite the numerous disruptions from external parties. Also, I like how the show emphasized how the FL would always have the ML in her heart no matter who she turned into. The way the male lead came to realize and be sure of his true feelings for the female lead was also nicely done.

The development of skinship looked natural, and the kissing scenes were good. Nothing super steamy but nothing awkward either. I give credit to Zhao Yi Qin, who plays Shen Yi, the ML for the kissing since even for the "surprise attack kisses", he was pretty smooth. I watched him in "Fake Princess" and decided to give this show a try because I was curious about his acting in a modern drama. Despite being a newbie for lead roles, he did not disappoint. Besides being good-looking, he also showed a good acting range, and I look forward to seeing him mature in his acting skills, especially when it comes to his facial expressions.

Personally, I did not find Li Jia Qi as Meng Hui that attractive, although I am sure most would find her adorable. She is a newbie as well, and in general, her portrayal of the female lead was good. She transitioned well between her different personalities Finally! A female lead in a Chinese drama who dressed well and looked stylish and appropriate for the occasions. I often lament at how badly the C-dramas style their female leads, but in this case, Meng Hui's outfits were enviable and matched well with Shen Yi, who looked pretty fine in his outfits. I wish they would post where the show stylist got the clothes because I was practically drooling over many of them.

i also enjoyed watching the relationship develop between Jiang Jiang and Ah Tao. They were really cute together, and it was interesting how there was somewhat of a role reversal when it comes to the male and female dynamics in a relationship. As for the third couple, Sui An and Wei Lei, I felt that this relationship was unnecessary and thrown in as a consolation prize. Something was lacking, not enough chemistry perhaps, plus I felt that the character Sui An was suave and matured enough that he would have stood out on his own without needing a partner. Fan Zhi Xin played Sui An well, and he's another one to keep an eye on since he appears to have the looks and talent.

Music-wise, the selection was good, and each song fit the mood of the scene well. I did like a couple of them enough to add to my playlist.

Overall, this is an endearing drama that I would recommend for light watching, good-looking actors who can act, and laugh out loud moments. I would likely re-watch it on a rainy weekend.
